It looks like the HALO movie has been
shelved for now. While I'm disappointed that we won't see Master Chief on the big screen anytime soon it's not that much of a surprise given that two major movie companies backing the film pulled out. In hindsight maybe it would have been better to go with an established director and scale back some of the profit aspirations for Bungie and Microsoft (I can't fault them for wanting to control their property though). Hopefully they can get things back on track next year.
