According to IGN Microsoft has hired screenwriter Alex Garland (28 Days Later, The Beach) to adapt its hit videogame series Halo for the big screen. Supposively Garland gets a multi million dollar deal and Microsoft will not have anything to do with the movie beyond the script.

That could be cool. I never played Halo so this would be a good way for me to get the story. There shouldn't be any budget concerns, so if nothing else, we can at least expect good special effects and design.
Freaky...I watched The Beach right after I saw 28 Days Later...well not right after...saw Bad Boys 2 in between the movie marathon. Didn't realize was same screenwriter...whoa...blows my mind...damn all I ate that day was an apple I stole from my roommate...but it was Halloween so it was ok...that girl was so drunk...ah good times...anyway...
I seriously dislike video game movies (except for Mario which everyone else hated). I see this as being like Starship Troopers except the aliens are cute little buggers inside of cute giant insects.
And "The Station" accordingly is a big-ass hoe, whereas "The Cube" is a 24-pack of beer with two layers of 12 cans each. Put the three together and you got yourself one hell of an afternoon.
Halo movie!?
