I just think the entire story should of been changed around, I think the entire thing was dumb lol. Thats what I was trying to get too, sorry with my poor choice of words. Obviously that was based in the future due to the guys age, I think it should of been based in the present time of the war, with a hurt marine telling his superior what happened, I think it was stupid to use the little set up model thing too.Tural wrote:This is why you are not in charge of doing things. If you changed the main person in the video, then it wouldn't even be the same video or story. What are you even rambling about, seriously?

lolz.
Na. The video was good. Halo 2's storyline was pretty much crap, and this gives me some hope that H3's story will be somewhat better.
EDIT: "Yeah, 300 was pretty good, but it would have been better if they had Chuck Norris shooting people with a shotgun."
hahaha. I <3 you.

I guess we all look and take things at different prospectives, We all have opinions, Lets keep it at that.Tural wrote:Your logic makes no sense. That's like saying "Yeah, 300 was pretty good, but it would have been better if they had Chuck Norris shooting people with a shotgun." It's just ridiculous. The entire purpose and sense of it went way over your head, it appears.

Yours isn't a fair opinion about the video. You're basing your entire foundation for disliking it on the fact that you have misguided views about what they video should be about. I don't think it's fair to say that the video is bad because it's not completely different. Refer to my 300 analogy, that is a key example of unfair judgment of something based on that which was not intended at all. It just makes no sense. If you plan to present an opinion, at least have it made a shred of sense. Your current one does nothing of the sort. The more you argue, the less sense you make. Would you like a ladder to assist you out of that hole you've dug yourself into?
lol no. Chill out man, Your taking this really serious, can you settle down? I just thought the movie should of been aimed in a different way, It just didn't give me any thrill that it gave others ok lol, Any opinion is fair, its just how the person thinks and interprets what they are basing their opinion on. If you don't like how I think then I'm sorry, I am not like everyone ok? Your right I'm wrong, Are you happy now? I'll go roll over while you throw me stick master, geez, I said leave it at that, I wasn't planning on digging into a hole, I was just stating how I thought. I am sorry for thinking in my own way.Tural wrote:Yours isn't a fair opinion about the video.

Ugh. You keep saying the same thing while neglecting to even acknowledge the basis for my side of the argument. Essentially, you're arguing with yourself.
I'll try to make it as blatantly obvious as possible:
They make the story.
You do not make the story.
To say the video is bad because the story element was not how you liked it is ridiculous.
They make the story, therefore whatever they do to convey it is correct. It is factually impossible for them to be wrong with how they present the video and it's background.
You say that, for the most part, it should have been entirely different.
How can it be entirely different and still convey the exact same story? It can not. Therefore, your argument makes no sense whatsoever.
Do you understand now? You say it would be better if it had younger marines and blah blah, but that's like, the exact opposite of what it's for. Again, refer to my analogy.
"300 sucked because it wasn't set in 2007 with guns and stuff. They should have done it in present day with some people getting shot with guns."
Just think about it. Honestly, to judge something based on the exact opposite of what it is intended for is completely unfair to the piece and its creators. You are not presenting a logical opinion which you can argue, you're presenting an abstract scenario which doesn't fit into this threat at all.

I know what your saying, I didn't view the story of the movie the right way, I'm thinking all wrong, I'm not making sense. Yet again, your right. Sorry.Tural wrote:Ugh.

Halo 3's slogan thing is so stupid...
Believe.
In what?
It's like they are trying to get some life altering feeling from it. It's just a game...
The commercial: While I agree that it was put together nicely, and gives Halo 3 a realistic backbone and such... I thought it was a little melodramatic.
Halo 3 all together is just being a little hyped up. This marketing campaign they are on makes me sad. I can understand that it's the last Halo in the Ark trilogy and such, but I enjoyed how things were with Halo 1 and Halo 2. You didn't see drinks being put out in stores after them, or all this other lame stuff.

Thinking it over, this is by far one of the best ads ever.
It evokes emotion. It seems that some of you young yippersnappers don't understand reminiscence.
Funny in a way.. his thinking back.. its our thinking forward [size=0]....in another dimension of imagination.[/size]

I can enjoy things without action and explosions, probably more than I do enjoy action scenes and stuff. I love how just because I disliked it plenty of you like erupted with assumptions that my dislike was due, entirely to a lack of action or anything. I merely stated that I thought it was lame. Argue all you want, it's my opinion.
The voice acting was very unnatural, and the old man's ears were way too big for my liking.
I'll judge the next one when I see it, so quit bitching how this one is just to set the plot for the next... until I see the next, I stand by my opinion.
EDIT: Best ad ever? Hardly. At the end of the day it's a fucking video game. It hardly made me want the game more.

That was just great, It had a very powerful touch and Even though chances are the Chief is going to die, it still gives you that sense of well maybe he'll make it, and that is what gets people to buy the game, and on top of that wanting more which is always good, I for one will be very sad when the Chief dies (if he does). Its gonna suck, Maybe its because after all the years since Halo 1 you just viewed him as a real person and it would be a shame to see him just go.turk645 wrote:you see the second believe vid yet?

I don't think anyone even addressed your comment specifically. I posted in a generality, based on the fact that everyone was saying it, I singled out nobody.iGeo wrote:I love how just because I disliked it plenty of you like erupted with assumptions that my dislike was due, entirely to a lack of action or anything.

In addition, it would have helped to clarify your reasoning, rather than posting a generic comment and assuming everyone could understand your exact purpose.
