Brave Art

Some New viral Images have been found for Cloverfield. Although they are in Black & White and very grainy you can obv see some underwater scenes with creatures (looking very similar to the ones from the first movie) walking at the bottom of the ocean.

Not sure what sort of camera they will be filming with under water but surely not a handheld?! Maybe it’s the starting sequence of the film. Or some goverment pictures within the film and none of the film will be filmed under water. The pictures were also accompanied with a rough transmission script. The transmission is between Ngog Atsumi and Sub-4767. Some of the lines are blacked out.

Once again the Viral Madness of Cloverfield kicks off for Cloverfield 2!

Bungie Studios, director Neill Blomkamp, Weta Workshop, Origami Digital LLC and HT Limited have collaborated to make 3 short Halo clips.

Part One

Part 2

Part 3

Let me know what you think of them. It looks as though Weta Workshop have worked hard to create most of the props such as a fully functioning four wheel drive Warthog, with a working machine gun, digital displays, airbags and the ability for the Warthog to crab crawl as well as four wheel steer. Pretty awesome, if you check out their site also you can see many weapons they made as well as USNC body armour including Spartan.

The videos are a good in-sight into what could be done with such an amazing project. After Lord of the Rings I think Weta are keen to get thier creative teeth into the whole Halo franchise.

‘True Story’

I met and spoke to Richard Taylor (Director of Weta Workshop) briefly at the Return of The King Film premier in London a few years ago and asked him if I could get a job there?! As I expected our conversation abruptly ended with him looking at me horrified at the thought of this and walked off haha! Owell I would have been wasted there anyway!

If you are into all of the history of Halo then check out this site for a virtual tour of a replicated battlefield model with videos and detailed descriptions throughout- Halo3.com it is pretty damn amazing.

Stuart Beattie: the Pirates of the Caribbean screenwriter has reportedly written a non-commissioned script for a new movie Halo: Fall of the Reach. Fall of the Reach is the Halo book written by Eric Nylund.

Beattie’s version of this is supposedly loosely based on the novel. It’s about a six year old kid called John who is kidnapped by the United Nations Space Command (UNSC) Forces and then trained to become a Spartan warrior- Master Chief 117.

Beattie is known to be an avid fan of Halo so hopefully if the script is any good Microsoft or Bungie will snap it up and create what could be a great movie. The script also leans towards this being a trilogy with the second movie being named Halo: Rise of the Flood. Which is based entirely on the halo rings. The third named Halo: Battle for Earth which is based around the third game (Halo 3).

Scripts have been written before, one by Alex Garland author of The Beach. Peter Jackson was going to Produce the movie alongside director Neill Blomkamp. But all fell through because of money disagreements with Universal and the movie has been on hold ever since. I just hope whoever does it does not rush it like all game based movies of recent years. All the ones I can think of have been dire!

I was browsing a few gaming sites last night and had a look at IGN’s site. Forgetting it was April 1st I fully believed at first that this was a genuine movie trailer :S

After watching it all the way through I was quite dissapointed that the movie would be rubbish. The trailer was terribly casted as Link the boy is played by a man and other characters were just pretty pore lookalikes. Yet! I was still excited at the prospect of a Zelda Movie. Which I’ve always thought is way over due!

Nevertheless I still quite liked the trailer even though I was taken for a fool

I had been eagerly awaiting this movie for quite some time and admitedly was very excited about seeing it on the big screen. I had followed all the hype about Cloverfield including the fake website advertising Slusho the fake slushie company that when drunk gives you ultra abnormal strength. There were a few other sites that had massive traffic from users when they were linked with Cloverfield but none, really in the end gave any real knowledge of what Cloverfield was really going to be about.

It is filmed by a small group of friends hosting a leaving party for thier friend Jason Hawkins. Hud is the main camera man. Camera man used in the loosest sence possible as the whole film is filmed on a handheld camera very shakily. This movie did make me feel physically sick by the end of it lol but I enjoyed it all as part of the Cloverfield experiance.

The monster had been kept secret from viewers untill the movies release. This is how moster movies should be made in my view. Very thrilling, very exciting right to the end!

Make sure you go see it!
