Halo
Animated movie “Fall of Reach” and Halo Tv series
10/14/2024
I am looking at two adaptations based off the game series Halo and comparing the two adaptations which is an animated movie and TV series. Hopefully that works.
Genre
Gives us an overview of the games and novels that have been created and gives details about the history, technology, and groups within the Halo universe.
This link is about the adaptation of the Novel “Halo: The Flood” to the game “Halo: Combat Evolved”.
We get the difference in timelines between the game timeline and the series which is the “Silver timeline”
This gives us a summary of the animated movie Halo and talks about the production and adaptation differences.
This is like a senior thesis I think it’s trying to answer the question “How so science and religion relate to each other in the Hala game series”.
Social History
Top political stories in 2022 such as Supreme Court overturns abortion rights and Russa invades Ukraine.
Top events that happened in the year 2015.
Apparatus
The article talks about the first season of the Halo TV series, but I put it under apparatus because it gives us in depth of the feelings we feel when we play the game Halo. “What is most interesting about Halo is not the story on its own but the way that story interweaves with innovations present only in games: the slickness of a sniper’s aim and the arc of a plasma grenade; the openness of the world and the test of its difficulty. The Master Chief is not just the Master Chief: He is also you, a cypher for your triumph (Bedingfield).” It also gives feedback on the producer of the series and how adaptations fail.
