Sounds like someone didn't read the entire article. - solidus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Lord of the Halo
- Sixcolors, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Even if it were true, a Half-Life movie would be a far better use of money.
- Yoda716, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I don't Care if the rumor is bogus im still hopefull. *crosses fingers* Please Peter?
- FlatLine, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1wenoNfluX, i never said he WAS directing the movie. Looks like someone needs to brush up on their 'Nancy Drew Skills.'
aww snap. - ReyBrujo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Didn't he already refuse? No linky, just think I remember that.
By the way, Halo movie? Street Fighter II had 0 argument, Mortal Kombat had 2 argument. But Halo? What comes next, Tetris movie? Of course, fanboys will go and praise the movie for sure. - lickmygiggle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I wouldn’t see it either way.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0no peter jackson! We want the hobbit!
haha - dolbex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Not happening...
http://rampancy.net/story/category/media/24092005/jackson_not_directing_halo_movie - BugMeNot2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Halo (the game, not the book) has a crap story.
- mega-volt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm not getting my hopes up. I don't even know why somebody would post a rumor that is already confirmed untrue.
- xodex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yeah I noticed that bogus thing on gamespot :( sad indeed.
- xodex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0:D plz plz plz.... peter! this movie needs u!
- TheNik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That would kick ass! :D
- FlatLine, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hahahahaaaa now that would be sweet.
- uncle_dad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Now that he knows how to make an epic, he can take his expertise to a format that needs it, the videogame movie.
- D-Man, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0DON'T BELIEVE ANYTHING UNTIL IT'S AT WWW.BUNGIE.NET.
- oldgeek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It would have to be an epic move just to compare to the game.
- TigerClaw, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Peter Jackson directing the Halo Movie?, This could be huge if it's true, With him at the helm, The movie will be epic.
- spartan777, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i agree w/ nate007. a noob game like halo would be a waste of a pro's time (i.e. peter jackson). anything pwns halo (especially HL2 or CS:S)
- OwlBoy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This was already confirmed as falst before this story was posted on digg…
http://rampancy.net/story/category/media/24092005/jackson_not_directing_halo_movie - cr0w, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I Myself don`t see it happening.
Then again, I never expected the Man who made such excellent low budget flicks as Bad Taste and Dead/Alive to craft anything as epic as LOTR. - gaminggeek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Halo with hobbits
- Patriot-X, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Peter Jackson needs to keep enough calendar open to take George Lucas' outlines for Star Wars VII, VIII and IX and restore the franchise to its best possible glory.
- Flavius, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The Halo movie was made years ago...and it was called "Soldier," starring Kurt Russell.
Alas, it sucked. - Miyazaki, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Peter Jackson's next movie after King Kong is The Lovely Bones, and they want Halo out fast...he isns't directing it.
- themajor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0whos gonna play master chief?
- wilf_brim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0You are missing the worst part. Ewe Boll may direct. In which case I will be forced to pluck my eyes from my head.
- blorp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0For all the Half-Life movie sayers: How would you make a movie with a main character that NEVER talks?
- ncaa76, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dupe
http://digg.com/gaming/Rumor_Control:_Peter_Jackson_to_direct_Halo_movie_and_xbox360_price_cuts_ - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Halo will be an awesome movie.
PS kejistan is a fag. - sandrino, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Peter Jackson is too good a director for a shallow, game based movie like halo.
- TheBaumer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Upon fist hearing about the movie, I was completely expecting it to be just another horrible pos like tomb raider or street fighter. If this is true, Halo could turnout to be amazing...but honestly, I think this is just rumor and halo is going to be made by an inept director who destroys the franchise.
- adiazar, on 10/28/2007, -0/+0peter jackson did not become producer as your said
http://west-virginia.onlinebizbuzz.com/ - fli7e, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Perhaps read the full article before posting is.
As xenoNfluX pointed out, this is apparently a bogus rumor. - spade, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I would loose a lot of respect for Jackson if he did this.
- Psykus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Agh, we want The Hobbit, not Halo or King Kong!
- capajc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hey, why not Spielberg or Scorcese? Jeez.
- kejistan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Be serious people, is there an fps that could be made int a good movie? Alas no, none of them have the right kind of story, even HL with its excellent story would not work.
PS I'm gonna laugh when Doom comes out in theaters. - hayden.evans, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0not too bogus if you consider imdb as a reliable source
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0464037/ - billpoly, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0RFTA
- SystemError, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0When it makes it to DVD let me know.
- thecapitalizt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0the better question is, who will play Mister chief?
- number8888, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The article clearly stated that the rumor is bogus. Please read the whole thing before jumping to conclusion (it's annoying). Also, this is old news.
- Philbert, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0From what I understand Peter Jackson is in talks with ADV and Weta to do the Neon Genesis Evangelion live action movie.
- Soniti, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0If you read the whole article- You'd see that it's a hoax.
Seriously guys- think about ***** before you submit it- I swear, digg causes a frenzy when anyone sees a new story- They want to be the first to submit it... That's kinda sad...
Here's a quote from the article: " In this case, it was seen by someone with a sick sense of humor, because, according to a rep from Universal, the Peter Jackson rumor is "completely untrue."
Seriously Guys.
~Soniti - Philotic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0please dont digg this. think of the children.
- bobicazimama, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0listen up,being a kiwi i have info confirming that peter jackson WILL be executive producer along with his wife.they will begin filming 2006 in new zealand.halo rules i reckon it will become an excellent movie if pj helps with it.halo is perfect movie material
- PottsyNZ, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0As a one of PJ's fellow kiwis, all I can say is
