Re: Go hypocrisy!
Posted By: gspawnDate: 11/7/05 5:01 p.m.

In Response To: Go hypocrisy! (Peptuck)

: Stunt, you summed up my thoughts exactly.

All IMHO:
I think the problem is that, while it TRIES to stick to the Halo stuff overall, where it deviates is in places that are completely unacceptable. A la: The dialogue is laughable, we see MC's face, too much focus on action and not enough character/story...

Some of this might be remedied seeing the script (maybe there's more development in the script, and it didn't stick out to the reviewer)... some of it wouldn't.

I don't care if they deviate wildly (for the most part), but there are a few tenants that can't be broken no matter what they do. So long as those core ideals are maintained, I'm willing to chalk the rest up to creative liberties. Closer to the source would be nice, yes, but this is just a script that has the shell of a good script (lots of action) with absolutely no heart. And that just seems to feel like Resident Evil or DOOM- which I don't want to see happening again.

Again, IMHO.
