...IMAGINARY TEA-BAGGED SOMEONE!!! HA HA HA!!! That alone was priceless.
...and Stuart-Young, it's "creator'd"! Where did you go to school? Princeton? feh! -
That kid has some serious issues.....I'm voting PINK for his suit color though!
-
Who gives a rats ass? Some boring concept art from a movie that isn't going to be made. Wow. Neat-o.
-
First by all the kids at school.... then by his dad at home, when he finds out where all his Duct Tape went!
-
Ok... see... I was excited at a Halo film from Blomkamp because he was going to bring something interesting to the table through his style of film making.
This concept art is looking completely uninspired and boring. Oh my god, a piece of art that looks like it's from the game. So? -
he's vomiting a diatribe styled like something Dr Weird from Aqua Teen might say. Also, do we know anything of this movie other than these pieces of concept art? So far it looks like its going for something in the vein of advent children.
-
I played the game with my son Jasper (I didn't name him) and its just too crazy. The lasers hurt my eyes, and it was very disorienting... If the movie is anything like it, you can count me out. flemmingonfilms.blogspot.com
-
Or this movie is going to suck. That looks too much like the game, which is visually generic and bland. If I saw a movie that looked like that I'd expect it to be direct to DVD.
-
of God, please don't make a Halo movie. Stop feeding the stupidity of this society.
-
fly a kite, plant a tree, help somebody weaker than yourself
-
and this stuff just isnt very good. looks like they posed characters from the game and put them onto backgrounds made from Bryce 1.0 and stock photography.

What makes that kid go from nuts to fuckin awesome is the fact that he recreates all of the animations from the game. We need some good graphic artists to get on remixing this video like they did with the star wars kid stat! Oh and please use the fisherprice truck as his warthog

EAT ALL THE FISH PEOPLE EAT ALL THE FISH

THIS IS NOT STUDIO PURCHASED, PUBLISHED, OR GENERATED CONTENT. THIS IS THE WORK OF A STUDIO THAT ___HOPES___ TO WORK ON ANY POSSIBLE HALO MOVIES, AND HAS GENERATED THESE IMAGES IN THE HOPES OF IMPRESSING ANY DIRECTORS OR STUDIOS.
Sorry for the caps, but Merrick didn't see it in the previous update about the same exact thing. -
Kid is GEARED UP! LOCK AND LOAD, STAY FROSTY, GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!
-
REALLY? OH OK.
-
But Halo wasn't much. It has a lame sci-fi story, lame weapons, and basically it's only saving grace was multi-player, which I didn't think was that great. Really, the only thing I liked about Halo were the Red vs. Blue shows. I can't imagine making a movie based on this. It was a well-made regular FPS, get over it. And please, do not make a movie.
-
...but this is how Rick Baker, and Stan Winston started out. He's one of the few kids out there today using his imagination, and ingenuity to recreate props, with what ever materials he has at his disposal.
Good for him! -
If any one in his school ever finds that video, he is fucked. I just know if I was still in 8th grade and I saw a classmate doing that shit, things would south for him pretty rapidly. The best is when he keeps going down on one knee like he is crouching with his battle rifle. Who spends time making paper mache pistols that actually reload? And then shows it to the whole world?
-
This kid is WAY into weaponry. Gotta admire his enthusiasm. But the question is...future school shooter? Or Future filmmaker? Could go either way. Someone should call the police just to be sure. :-)
-
I can't see a good movie translation. Maybe I'm getting too old for this shit.
-
'I just know if I was still in 8th grade and I saw a classmate doing that shit, things would south for him pretty rapidly.'
So you bullied kids at school? What a fucking hero. -
...but preparing for the worst. Kind of like Superman Returns. Sadly, I was left somewhere in the middle.
-
the first piece was shittier than in game graphics from the original game, the second piece was definitely fan art that has been sitting in a wallpapers folder on my hard drive for 2 years.
and you actually can claim that this is 3rd example with a straight face.
You realize theres enough halo fan renders out there for latino review to release exclusives once a day for the next 20 years right?
You might as well say the cardboard nerd is their prop guy and that anyone who fires up the game is auditioning. -
And now he's the kind of guy who catches animals to drown them and pulls the wings off flies. What a douchebag!
-
He ain't gonna get laid for a loooooong time.
-
Him making the weapons with such detail shows future talent. The rocket launcher creation was very well done. But wearing the suit and mimic the movement of the game... He has to cut that shit out. I hope he doesn't turn into a future school shooter and just stays nerdy. Sadly for him though the last vagina he'll ever see is the one he crawled out of when he was born.
-
There is NO WAY that is real concept art. I'll give you three reasons:
A)There are ALL KINDS of rookie art mistakes on that piece- tangents, poor composition, the same photo elements used over and over, etc...
B)Where's the design? I can tell you for certifiable fact that not ONE copncept artist would ever just recycle the designs from the game like that. Either the director would want a change, or the artist would put his own stamp on it. Any "Halo" movie, I'm sorry to say, will NOT look just like the game. See: Transformers for a perfect example of the changes directors like to make.
C)I know a LOT of concept artists, and that signature is NOT one I recognize. I highly, HIGHLY doubt they'd go with a concept artist either that new or unexperienced for a project as big as Halo.
Take it or leave it, but I'm 100% POSITIVE all of those are fan-art. -
The Halo Kid is just awesome. He is very passionate about realizing an imaginary universe and sharing his enthusiasm. Not only will he go far, he will get laid by women who are hotter than the molten discharge from a RPG round -cuz he obviously has a good sense of humor about himself. Don't fuckin spoil it for him by chattin like a grown up fool yourself.
-
also, playkins, get me a job drawing stuff for a living.
-
Yeah, I wouldn't get my hopes up too much on this being anything less than spectacularly awful.
-
His helmet! Were is it? eh!....................Exactly! because you couldnt make one could you! p.s only joking by the way, before sombody calls me a bully or a douch or somthing.
-
...but at least he's doing something creative and not out knocking mailboxes over or tying firecrackers to cat's tails.
-
...or duping internet movie news sites with his garage-built fanart.
-
Did me make those guns out of cling wrap? Wtf is all that crackling?
-
I think he made that stuff out of cardboard wrapped with clear mailing tape.
-
that video was seriously better than the halo art that looked like it was 2001.
can the kid put the camera on his shoulder, grab some cardboard weapons, and run around the house? -
Universal and Microsoft screwed the pooch on that one.
-
How old is this kid? And yeah, it may be cardboard, but he's already interested in making thiings 'work' with the hinges and pump-action and all, so next step, sculpting in foam, simple mechanisms...
This kid will be apprenticed at some place making props in 5 years, if his enthusiasm keeps up. It's not Star Wars kid or Tron Guy, he's heading straight for working in the field. Good on ya, kid! Don't get beat up! -
Halo hasn't interested me since 2001. There's absolutely no evolution in the franchise, and a movie doesn't make sense to me anymore. Like gridbug alluded to, wake me when Valve gets their heads out of their asses and make Half Life into a movie.
-
It looked like all the real weapons but gift -wrapped!!!
He's really talented in a funny sort of way,though part of me thinks this is a really subtle piss take in some way. -
other than playing violent video games.
-
... please lock up that wacko before he gets his hands on live rounds.
-
Cardboardpunk rocks!

Way to go, dude!

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ... hmggg... wha....ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I stand with my fellow asshole talkbackers. I yawned at this story the first time and now, more probably fake concept art from a movie that never had a chance of getting past a "proposal" phase and will definitely never see the light of day. WHY is this news? At least if you could prove the validity of the source of the art itself MAYBE you could justify it, but no one gives a shit. And I say that as someone who played and enjoyed the HALO series. Good games. Absolutely no interest whatsoever in seeing a movie about it.
If every piece of concept art (even VALID) from every movie ever proposed were put on a website, there wouldn't be a server with enough storage to host it. -
He's been busy since superbad it seems
-
is cool and I agree with the person who mentioned that this is how folks like Stan Winston, etc probably started out. GOOD FOR HIM! Hell, he is a kid and has a GREAT imagination and is USING it! MAJOR props (no pun) to the guy! Better than all the fat lazy punks sitting around stuffing their faces with cheetos all day long.

Video game fans, this was all discussed on this great podcast re

Faceless hordes of Starcraft marine clones vs. generic alien menace. No way to make this a success on film.
And by the way, I was obsessed with guns as a kid, like McLovin' there. I never shot up a school (but I wanted to -- ed. note: jk). I went to school for Industrial Design, focused on prop design...This kid is going places. He has a good understanding of scale and dimension, as well as a real mechanical intuitiveness. Most kids his age would just draw a gun, out of scale, on a cardboard cutout, and run around the house making "pyoo-pyoo" sounds. -
Ha ha, slugbat, you have a point. This kid needs funding.
-
If I ever have children, and feel the need to defend them on an AICN talkback, please call whatever government agency takes away kids from parents immediately -- for their own good.
-
Exactly the first thing I thought too!
-
that art could be from anything Halo related but mostly looks like game concept art what makes it so movie worthy?
-
A kid spends his life playing Halo and making fake weapons?
Wow, you know he's going to end up killing someone, don't you? -
If they stick to the books and games this would make for an excellent series of films. Halo: First Strike, and Ghosts of Onyx shouldn't be left out either. Make a trilogy of films and a couple of CG animated ones and they can cover everything. Please find a good director.
-
he'll run a Games Workshop in some midwest shopping mall making blowed up buildings out of cardboard and packing tape. The creaky doors will all work, and they'll sound like a truck full of diapers when you touch them. or he might wind up making movie magic - he'res hoping we finally see that much delayed "Something Wicked This Way Crinkles" re-envisioning.
-
Ben, I don't think so, that'd be about as unoriginal as your post. Scroll up, lazybones...
Oh Arcadian, you're so jaded... -
...why adapting those dogshit novels is a bad idea (other than them being dogshit, obviously): there's no fucking Halo in it! The first book closes as the game begins! May as well call this (hypothetical, hopefully never-to-be-made movie) HALO: THE BEGINNING: RISE OF THE SPARTANS. Shit be rising!
-
is my hero.

Its CONCEPT Art, it doesn't have to look good, look at some other films' concept art, it is supposed to be VERY rough to give you an idea of what kind of scenes you are seeing, if this was the Poster Art I might be a little worried. I do agree though they should have kept with the BlomKampf/Jackson scenario - they are idiots for mucking that up. As for the Halo kid, ....at his age,who didn't imagining they were their favorite character such as Gi.Joe or whatever. At least he's not sitting around all day stuffing his face with chocolate and playing the damn game 12 hours a day. It looks like he took a lot of initiative to design all those cardboard weapons, I doubt most of us did anything that cool when we were kids or at the least that precise with the character. I bet he runs around the neighborhood with all his friends with that stuff. I would.
-
I get to be Lt. Falcon!! Ha. Actually, I was dying laughing at the guy who was ripping Halo Kid McLovin' for using packing tape. We are a cranky, acerbic bunch here at AICN, aren't we? I can imagine that guy just destroying his son for childish execution of art projects when he's 8 years old and shit. Hurling Comic Book Guy saracastic quips at his innocent, inquisitive kid who hasn't quite learned yet how cynical one has to be to make it through the day in this cruel world(or least in an AICN TB). But that said, truly laughed out loud at "Something Wicked This Way Crinkles." "Back to the drawing board, kid! Who designed your shit? Snap Crinkle Pop? You suck! Get the fuck outta my house!"
-
That ad was a miniature diorama, while the concept art is clearly a digital painting. It's a very similar scene, yes, but I think even the Elite holding up a fallen soldier/Spartan goes back to the first Halo Wars trailer. Probably earlier.
