Re: New Reach Trailer!

: New Reach live-action trailer - "Deliver Hope" - has been released: : http://bit.ly/NwGXa : Grim I liked this one a lot. It's the first good Halo commercial since Starry Night. Too many of these commercials just abandon Halo canon because they can, like the Believe campaign, or they just don't feel right / feel cheesy, like We Are ODST. But this one got most everything right. I mean look at those Elites charging! They look quick and deadly and awesome. Not like the misproportioned ones in Halo Wars. One of the Elites in the background even stabs through a Marine and lifts him up into the air. Thats cool. Then look at the Spartans. Spartans aren't hard to kill because they're invincible, though the armor and shields certainly makes them tougher, they're hard to kill because they are quick and agile and smart. And we see that here. From Kat's run to Carter (I think) killing that Elites with his knife to George helping some marines hold a position with his big gun. They also got UNSC technology right. If you watch closely Kat's shields either take a hit or have just taken a hit as she's arming the bomb and its reflected in the HUD. And the bomb is up in the left corner like it should be. Then when Kat gets hit by the Banshee the HUD shows the right thing again. I guess my only problem with it is that the Nobel six who dies in this battle sure looks like he tosses the bomb and is going to get away. Maybe there's an extended version where some Elite delays him or injures him causing him to get caught in the blast?
