They just only arrived at the Halo ring lmao 😭

As a huge Halo fan, I had mixed feelings about this show. Some of their narrative decisions absolutely baffled me but it was still very cool to see the Halo universe as a high-budget TV show.

I didn't even realize there was a season 2 until after it dropped.

I've never played halo so I can't compare it as an adaptation but as a scifi show it wasn't that bad.

Oh I didn’t know this existed lmao. I’ve always thought they’d adapt an live action series or a movie or something lmaooo oh well

well they tried to do a halo movie in 2009 but it all fell apart which led to the director attached to that movie to make District 9 which imo was awesome

This is what happens when you don’t respect the source material. Fallout and The Last of Us are prime examples that successful video game adaptions can be achieved if tv execs stick to the original blueprint of what made those IPs popular and successful in the first place.
