[Off Topic]Movie Rights Listening to today's wavs has simply reinforced something I've been thinking for weeks now. This would make a SWEET movie... You've got convoluted plot lines, kick butt chicks who do stuff I can barely imagine (dispite my relay code) and AI's from the future who like torturing people.
Now THAT's a cool movie idea.

Hang on.. I have a better idea! Maybe they could make a game out of it?
Oh, wait a minute...

Hey, I didn't say I would... Although... I need to call my videographer mom. NOW.
edit: I suppose that would be opposed to my non-videographer mom, eh? Oh well. I'll still call. But I need a script... Bruce? I'll pm ya...

Okay, you know what? Reality just decided to bonk me on the head. I don't have the resources for this. Unless someone else wants to jump on the bandwagon, it'll have to stay on the sidelines for the end of the game and someone professional to pick up.

LOL! I meant I hope the PMs make a movie out of this too.

Yeah, but it got my mind going. I love the idea of doing it, but there are the rights to consider, and... yeah. I got carried away.

Yeah, I would love to work on a movie like this myself. I've done a lot of video editing the past few years, and this would top all of the films I've done.
Anyway, time to go get ready for my personal call from Melissa.

I wouldn't like a movie. For one, I'd have no choice but to see it. That would mean that the intricately plotted scenes in my head would be replaced by the movie. I mean, now that I think about it, I've got a detailed image for every wav I've heard.
Also, from what I can tell, the PMs have made very good use of the advantages of a purely sound-based medium. I think if images were added to that, something would be lost, and it wouldn't be good.
Besides that, yes, a movie would be friggin- awesome.

well, not creating a movie from this exact same plot... but if the story writers were involved in creating a movie in the haloverse - well this game shows it doesn't have to be "Halo", but it can be a plot based in the universe, and these guys are good... chances are, it could turn out very well...

I actually had that idea, but I got the impression people were thinking of making the axon plotline into a movie, and that's what I responded to (selective vision and all that). I'm pretty sure they could at least do a T.V. series. I might actually prefer that. Then we could get all of this excellent attachment to the characters and immersion in the story and stuff that we've been getting with these wavs.

Actually, that was what was originally intended. But I like Bruce's idea (and yours) better.

Start with the view of the actual people involved in the game (IE Us the beekeepers) form relationships between the movie online bee group by jumping between states and using phone calls etc. Telling there lives and involvement.
Then they can notice and check things on the site and when they figure it out it jumps to Haloverse point of view to tell the information they found out. Or in Perditas story case a crazed wonky world view.
Possibilities are endless.
