So, I was watching some one play Halo Two right after I watched Live Free or Die Hard, and I couldn’t help but notice that there was a comparison of almost eerie proportions, that go on between the two. In Live Free or die hard, there are copious amounts of explosions, as there are in Halo, Master Chiefs Mission in the Halo series is to save the Human race, as is John McClain’s in Live Free or Die Hard.
Both have a story line that seem to be there for nothing other than a garnish to hide the other wise uninteresting cultivation of explosions, beautifully choreographed action sequences, cute leading ladies, and the veritable underdog taking down a foe of seemingly unstoppable resources.
Throw into this a blaze of gunfire and awesome vehicles and it leads me to believe that when they do produce the Movie Version of Halo, if Bruce Willis is cast as Master Chief, it will be the perfect end to a vicious cycle. You’d have a series of movies that Bruce Willis stared in, that were decent at best, with video game series related to them or rather just the opposite.
A prime example is when Master Chief jumps out of the space ship in the first game, as he plummets threw the vacuum of space and towards earth, who amongst us has not had the urge to scream at the top of our lungs, in sequence with the screen on the television,“YIPPY KIYAY MOTHER ****er’s”? That’s all I have to say about this subject, make up your own minds.
