In Response To: Re: Halo Apologetics *SP* (Stephen L. (SoundEffect)) : I prefer to justify the facts rather than belabor their : troublesome inclusion when it's inconsistent or inconvenient. Keeps me : stress-free. :) The former actually keeps me stress free, I don't see why you HAVE to adhere to facts that simply demean the story just because "canon is canon if we like or not." Well for some of the stories set in Halo I prefer the "or not" option. These elements sometimes compromise the meaning and consistency of the overall story to a really high degree. This is worstened further by the fact that the writers/storytellers refuse to divulge the most important facts i.e. who ARE the forerunners, WHY is the flood on that shield world, WTH really did happen so long ago and why is it affecting us now? All this is done to prolong the franchise as much as possible. Instead we get stories where we have to fight the flood on a shield world for no adequately explored reason, stories where there are ample opportunities to divulge more imformation about the story, but instead we are given scrambled messages in terminals that are very hard to make sense of despite the fact that they seem VERY important to the overall plot. So when so much is wrong, my philoshopy to avoid a serious headache is to pick only the bits that make sense and are the most meaningful to you. Personally I only consider Halo 1,2,3 Fall of Reach and Contact Harvest "canon".
