In Response To: Got popcorn? (thebruce0)


: Watch the controversy unfold :)

: some more points: the game and Content Usage Rules do allow such projects,
: in theory. That being said, this is still their brand. Our page grew
: exponentially and our team members grew in huge numbers, including key
: members of the actual "Halo" franchise. We were really pushing
: the grey area of fan film content, and we respect their position in
: protecting their materials.

: They may easily spelled their own doom with how 'big' they were taking the
: project.

: Still, at least there's a few other fan projects... Helljumper and Operation
: Chastity primarily come to mind.

Halo: Faith really bugged me. More than anything else about the film, they could only talk about how awesome the film was going to be, how it's never been done before and other sensationalist bullcrap. The whole while they were making promises they couldn't keep. I'm convinced this entire production was a hoax to furthur the director's career. Did it work for him? Apprently it did. But it was at the cost of people's trust.

He can blame it on whatever he wants, but in the end he got what he was looking for out of the project. He was purposely leading people on with the project. The fact that he is just now telling people that the film got the kabosh because of IP reasons just after he is getting these offers from big companies now? He didn't tell people because he didn't want the hype to die down.

As for Helljumper and Operation Chastity, those are a couple of projects that have earned my respect and interest and I cannot wait to see the end result from them both.
