I would like to begin by sharing a recently pondered question:
When watching and judging adapted film and television works, we must refer to the original work.
In other words, how should a passerby who is not a fan of a novel, game, or cultural and creative product judge such film and television works?
My personal opinion is that "what you see is what you get", and we will evaluate how the work is performed.
Since most of these works are publicized on the whole network, it is inevitable to take care of the perception of passers-by.
If the film side insists on adding a lot of "original barriers", or only fans can empathize with the whole process, passers-by are unclear in large sections.
I personally suggest that in the future, we should not spend money to smash the whole platform to publicize, and it is very good to be self-cute in the fan super talk circle.
The reason why today's opening is long and rushing, there is no other meaning.
Because I haven't played Halo, but I'm going to talk to you about the sci-fi film adapted from the well-known FPS game Halo:
Halo
For this American drama that mingles between the original party and passers-by in various comment areas, I, a pure passerby, intend to talk about my feelings.
Since it is a cool film, we will not buckle the details in some background introductions.
Probably in the 26th century AD, human beings have entered the era of stars and seas, and began to engage in interstellar colonization in the universe.
In the case of "Galactic Team" with a similar background, the expeditionary force encounters the Zerg as soon as it moves.
The human colonization army is also in league with an alien group called the Star Alliance.
In addition to the two formal forces, there is also a marginal organization, which we simply refer to as the rebels.
The heroine of this drama, Xiao Guan, is the daughter of Lao Guan, the commander of the rebel stronghold of the Pastoral Star.
And the beginning of the movie, which is also the most uriney segment I have seen so far, is the invasion of the rebel stronghold by the elite monsters of the Star Alliance.
Just watching the elite monster slaughter rebel survivors is still quite interesting.
Note that I am talking about the part before the Spartan troops arrived on the battlefield.
That is, from the beginning, to the first episode of the original film at 11:30 seconds.
First of all, shooting melee guns is originally a good hollywood scene.
From the modeling of elite monsters, the particle effects of the hot melt gun, and the special effects of plasma and explosions, it is not particularly stunning, but it can be seen that the crew spent money.
However, there is also a small slot here, which is the weapons of the rebels.
Based on my poor military knowledge, the vast majority of rebel weapons throughout the engagement were AK47/M and its tactical redeployments.
Others include MP5, AUG, Minigon Gatling machine gun, pickup truck, troll...
Here I would like to emphasize again, the backstory of Halo takes place in the 26th century.
The vast majority of these weapons came from the mid-to-late 20th century.
This generational contrast is roughly equivalent to the East Wind Express vs. Roman Phalanx.
Although it does not affect the direction of the plot, it always feels very comedic when I think about it.
Of course, the background era of the rebel costume and the book is also a picture of music, and the real play of flowers still depends on the "Spartan warrior".
Speaking of which, "Halo" as a classic IP game drama is still good for the reproduction of the power armor.
Including the setting of the armor holographic mask, it is indeed very like playing FPS games.
But in the portrayal of the battle scene, there is a little bit of collapse.
First of all, it is the classic big iron pipe that can't kill the elite monster that the machine gun can't kill.
When the elite monsters in front of us slaughtered the rebels, we could see their armor, which should have something similar to the position defense.
Just such a high-tech thing, stabbed to death by a big iron pipe, somewhat a joke.
Of course, given that the masses of the people love hand-to-hand combat more than guns.
And in the classic god work "Ace Ultraman", there are also sections that use the power of mind to enchant the branches of the tree and hack the monsters to death.
I have the right to believe that there is some reasonableness here.
Still, I'd like to make a suggestion.
If this hand-to-hand combat, directly using the high-tech weapons brought by the soldiers, it will seem more reasonable.
*For example, lightsabers in Star Wars
And the real collapse of the battle was the Gatling machine gun.
With the same machine gun, Lao Guan can only give the elite monster a scrubbing bath, but the male master sergeant major can kill the elite monster in one shuttle.
I have to admire that the protagonist's aura is terrifying.
After the slightly collapsed battle, the sergeant major returned to the base with Xiao Guan.
Also brought back was a stone tablet found in the Pastoral Star.
In this paragraph, a series of very dense messages are pulled out.
Here, I would like to pick an important summary for you:
First of all, the colonial army played the traditional arts of the United States and ran to outer space to grab energy.
Second, the Sergeant Major began as a brainwashed, human-enhanced, emotionless killing machine.
But after discovering the stone tablet, because of some mysterious energy pulse, he awakened part of his memory and consciousness.
The brainwashing killer broke away from the organization due to memory awakening, and Winter Soldier listened to the direct call "I have seen this episode".
On top of the Spartan warriors, the Sergeant Major was working on a stronger transformation project, "Kotana."
In the end, Xiao Guan's rebel group has been instigating the independence of the pastoral stars.
And Xiao Guan's mother seems to have died at the hands of the colonial army.
In addition, behind the rebels and colonial forces, in addition to the superficial economic and political demands, there are also huge conspiracies.
These contents should be the hooks thrown by the screenwriter.
At present, it is not good to evaluate, it depends on how to fill the pit behind the film.
At present, what the colonial army has to do is to execute XiaoGuan, the rebel remnant.
The matter was handed over to the sergeant major to handle, but when he was preparing to execute, an accident occurred.
As mentioned earlier, the sergeant major awakened his memories.
He openly disobeyed, and during the confrontation with Xiao Guan, in order to dispel Xiao Guan's doubts, the sergeant major made a decision against his ancestors:
In the first episode, he took off his helmet!
According to the feedback of gamers, the sergeant major represents the gamer, and it is a big rebellion to take off the helmet to reveal a bearded face.
According to the film's own sophistry, it is said that this non-commissioned officer is from the "silver team" and is the non-commissioned officer in the "silver timeline".
In the game, the sergeant major is from the "BLUE Team", which is the player of the main universe operation game.
Therefore, the bull warrior who does not take off his helmet is Captain Blue, and has nothing to do with Captain Silver.
How to say it, really not enough brain holes, parallel universes.
However, one thing is more gratifying, after all, the moment I take off my helmet, at least not a vegetarian bisexual plus-size environmentalist black.
In order to save Xiao Guan, the sergeant major did not stop and defected in a starfighter surrounded by all his comrades.
Yes, the masked killer escaped with the baby, a good play of "The Mandalorian".
The Sergeant Major takes people to the "Cosmic Thief's Den" gravel star to settle down, and with the help of his former comrade-in-arms and now the leader of the interstellar pirates, Sauron, he gets more information:
After Lao Guan's rebels were wiped out, the Pastoral Star was occupied by Wenshe, who had a PY deal with the colonial army.
In the follow-up plot, killing Wen She to regain the pastoral star may account for a large proportion.
The stone tablet that activates the Sergeant Major's consciousness is a very special energy source.
Only the Chosen One can activate this special artifact.
It was clear that the Sergeant Major was the chosen one.
In order to unlock the secret behind the stone card, the sergeant major entrusted the small pass to Sauron to take care of, and he himself surrendered himself to the colonial army.
At this point, the story of the first two episodes is over.
"Halo" as a game adaptation, but there is a very magical place.
Its creative team, like me, has almost never played Halo.
This is also why the film side let the non-commissioned officer take off the helmet, and he can take it so peacefully.
He has no feelings!
Since the creator has no feelings, it is said that Paramount did not buy the full set of background structure copyright of "Halo".
Can we passers-by watch "Halo" as a pure film?
From the perspective of hardware, various spaceship cannons and air-space aircraft carriers have a good portrayal effect.
As I said earlier, people do spend money.
But in terms of script and human settings, "Halo" is really unsatisfactory.
Some of the grooves mentioned above have already had reasons to be discouraged for the more exquisite audience.
The most important thing is that after watching the two episodes of "Halo", it gives people the feeling that this is completely a "group drama".
The macro background is like "Galaxy Squad", and the pre-plot of the sergeant major is like "Winter Soldier".
Hanging up the God of War with the baby, you can say "The Mandalorian", you can also say that "This Killer Is Not Too Cold".
After I accepted that the Sergeant Major was not a classic "BLU" warrior, I even got a taste of StarCraft.
If you happen to have not seen any of the above works, you have not played Halo.
If you don't care about these similarities, you want to see your brother and sister tearing up aliens.
The culmination of Hollywood hero movies such as "Halo" should give you a good experience.
But if you do any of this, you get your lung tubes, your cheeks.
All I can say is, be cautious into the pit.
At least until the episode is "fattened" and the main plot is officially opened, then consider whether to enter the pit.
Of course, the above set of suggestions, there is no advantage or disadvantage, nor is it a one-step.
This is simply a difference in viewing preferences, and everyone can eat them according to their own likes and dislikes.
So let's get here today.
Like the little friends remember to like in the watch, if you are a "Halo" player, but also hope that you can in the comment area, help me add some game settings, here is grateful.
Bye bye bye.
