I just thought I'd repost some stuff I've seen in the past few days relating to the movie. There hasn't been very much info coming out of Bungie about it recently, so even the littlest scraps of info can be tantalizing.
On Saturday a discouraging news story came out at IGN reporting that 20th Century Fox and Universal Pictures are sueing each other over who is responsible to pay the roughly $12 million in pre-production costs spent to date on the Halo movie. What I wanna know is when we're gonna see some of what that money was spent on?

Today Eurogamer released an interview with Frank O'Connor of Bungie in which they posed him the question everybody wants answered... Frankie was his usual non-disclosing self, but at least he let on about Bungies general feelings that they'd still like the movie to be made.
And lastly I uncovered a fantastic fan-made Halo Movie trailer over at Bungie's forums. It's really the best one I've seen to date, weaving together clips from all of the released H3 promotional video and some select H2 campaign cutscenes. Maybe this can help convince the studios that the movie should be made.

Enjoy. I hope we hear something official about the future of the movie soon, but until then, keep your fingers crossed.

Frank O'Connor: We'd love to see the Halo movie made and our relationship with Peter Jackson is as strong as ever. If we find out more, we'll be sure to share that information with you.
