Halo SHOULD Be Made Into A Movie
Here is a TERRIBLE article on Newsweek on why Hollywood and production companies should stay away from Halo. When reading this article it was a JOKE how one sided of an article it is.
Basically it compares the revenue stream from the successful launch of Halo 3 to box office sales of Spiderman 3. Sugguesting that Halo 3 will not have that many fans because most of the revenue comes from their high price. What a pile of trash.
There are more Halo fans then what the revenue would suggest. First off a lot of people don’t buy Halo and usually get a crack or illegal copy of some sort. Halo 3 is just that good of a game that people are willing to take out money of their wallet. Secondly more people would be willing to see a movie for $10 with a lot of action and good reviews. A good comparison of video game to movie success will have to be the Resident Evil trilogies. Granted these movies got terrible reviews and Resident Evil isn’t on par with the amount of fans it has. Even if you didn’t play Halo doesn’t mean you wouldn’t see the movie especially if it has a lot of action in it.
Resident Evil grossed about $40 million and Halo3 probably has 10 times the fan base of Resident Evil. You know where I am getting at if you multiply $40 million by 10 you would get $400 million. Add in good graphics and probably decent reviews from critics you’ll have a big hit. I can see it doing as well as Transformers.
To say that just cause you have 5 million fans buying the video game that is not your entire market and it’s a poorly done article. The real market? Males aged 8 to 40 and if production companies don’t realize that they are retarded just like that bullshit article which fails to looks at both sides.
