A Halo movie... from Steven Spielberg?
PsychoRaven came by to tell us about an article on IESB.net (I can't find ANYTHING about who they are on their website, or anywhere else for that matter, but they sure do get the word out) that claims that Steven Spielberg is in 'active negotiations' to develop Stuart Beattie's Halo spec script for the big screen. Peter Jackson and Neill Blomkamp used the opportunity of SDCC a couple of weeks ago to say that the Halo movie looked dead dead dead... and now we've got another big name rumored to be interested in making yet another version. Will anything come of this? Your guess is as good as mine. Stay tuned! (Louis Wu 15:23:05 UTC) (permalink)
Helljumper #1 Review
CaptainTony let us know that he's written up a review of Helljumper #1 - and he's also provided a summary of that review for the TL;DR crowd. Go take a look! (Louis Wu 15:13:25 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3 Outtakes
Bloogyo stopped in with word of 'The Halo 3 Outtakes' - it's like a DVD's outtake reel... except that standard Halo 3 footage was used to build it. Some clips work really well... others are a little hard to understand. Check it out - it's only a minute and a half! (Louis Wu 15:11:09 UTC) (permalink)
The Weta Warthog - in all its glory
Kotaku pointed out some photos of the Weta Warthog in Sydney at InsiderX - but what's more interesting is if you continue along to their VIP Party photos, you'll find a link to Delicate Genius, the blog of Michael Kordahi, another attendee - who took enough shots of the Warthog to create a Photosynth of it. You can watch a video of the making of the photosynth, as well as the end product itself. Pretty cool stuff! Update: here's another Warthog video tour, this one shot on an iPhone.

The good news: urk's wearing pants again.
The Bungie Weekly Update went up as expected last night - if you read it, you'll find lots of little tidbits. There's a deconstruction of ONI's Alpha Site, for those preparing to play Halo 3: ODST. There are some cool new wallpapers for your iPhone. There's some tantalizing news about an upcoming Halo 3: ODST Soundtrack release. There's information (very little, but information nonetheless) about the next ViDoc coming down the pike. And there's a bunch of little stuff that should amuse a Bungie fan, if only for a moment or two. Go give it a read! (You can, of course, check it out in our Weekly Update Archive, if you choose.)
