Exclusive: 2nd Halo Fall Of Reach Concept Art!
By El Mayimbe on August 11, 2008
Mayimbe here…From what I’m told, below is the picture of a scene from the Spartan children in training. Fans of the book could probably figure out where this one is from. I do know the Master Chief is in there. Chime in your comments below. In the game, Master Chief, the last Spartan, and a brave band of human soldiers risk everything to halt the terrifying Covenant onslaught. The folks over at Microsoft aren’t too thrilled with us and these pics and are “threatening” us. The balls on this prick. Read the letter below. MS_LR - Free Legal Forms FYI Mr. Weston, this is nothing more than fan art made by an artist in Hollywood. When every home made HALO fan art and youtube video on the net is taken down and you guys learn how to properly play ball in Hollywood and make the HALO movie then maybe, I will honor your request. Yeah, right. Fuck off. From what I understand, Mr. Ballmer got egged in Hungary which you can also see below. Not for nothing, last time I checked there weren’t any major league pitchers from Hungary and that fool clearly missed three pitches, but I do know that there is a large majority of starting pitchers in Baseball who are DOMINICAN like yours truly who know very well how to pitch inside the strike zone. That is something Mr. Ballmer should keep in mind the next time he visits New York. I’m off to coach my Cal Ripken League pitchers. Stay tuned next week when we put up the 3rd pic. In the meantime you can follow my updates on TWITTER y que se joda Microsoft! Mayimbe out. Check out the pic below and for a hi-res version just click on the image.

Nothing should be censored and neither should this pitiful concept art which would look good if the kids weren't in normal close but training gear and have bald heads.

Wow, so they send you a very legit legal document and you respond by saying "I'll comply when you release the movie, so in the meantime fuck off"? Very professional.

The letter... Tue Aug 19 at 05:01 EST
The letter probably is legit. If they intend to use information like this they would want to back it up legally, so they didn't have someone saying that they stole their idea, or get involved in a legal battle for any amount of reasons.. The best way to do this would be to write a kind cease and desist letter, as they did. I don't know if they will follow this up further, but I somehow doubt it.

halo Wed Aug 13 at 22:35 EST
i read a book its xcalled halo fall of reach and it is about when master chief and the other spartans were a whole bunch of kids. there was one activity in the book where the first one who rings the bell wins. i realize now if they are going to make a halo moviwe they have to include a part when john(master chief) was a kid. by the way thats not the whole Book!!

Permalinkrobs Wed Aug 13 at 15:17 EST
The picture of chief holding the 2 smg's is not concept art for a movie at all. This pic was made aprox 2 years before the release of halo 3 and was intended to be promotional work that is all.

okay... Wed Aug 13 at 09:47 EST
The artwork was created with the intention of being concept art of a halo movie. If Microsoft accepts this hollywood artist's proposal, you'll have leaked the halo movie's production assets, if not, you've at least posted this artist's work. You obviously don't have Microsoft's permission or approval, you'd better hope you have the artist's. Aside from legal terms, nobody wants to see the concept art & pre-production of a movie prior to seeing the film, it spoils the movie.

Yeah, the PS3 owns a movie...LOL The fact that this movie will probably come out on Blu-Ray is funny....with idiots like "awesome" please stop spreading their "intelligent" comments. Hope this movie delivers. They could do some epic stuff with this story.
Permalinkawesome Wed Aug 13 at 07:44 EST
ps3 owns al this shit XD

I'm not saying that as fans, we'd all like to see this stuff, but the concept art is owned by MS. Like any company would, they're trying to control their IP in the way they see fit. It's there's, not yours or the public's. Like it or not, IP laws exist. You probably thought you were going to be some kind of hero standing up to big mean MS, instead you come off like a prick. It's one thing to show the pictures because of fan interest, but it's another thing entirely to call the lawyer a prick for doing his job or to be angry at MS for trying to protect one of their top brands the way they see fit (as many companies/artists/creators would do; it's their choice).

im confidant the original script would have been better. turning a novel into a movie has loads of inherent problems. and that's not to mention, the original script was written by a hand picked author (chosen by bungie) and it was a NEW story woven into the current canon. i just, don't see why re-doing a book is so appealing. for a film like this work work well, it needs a focused scope, and The Fall of Reach is way too big.

For those who want to know where John aka MC is, it's the kid reaching for that "trophy". They're playing King of the Hill. Also one of the three military officers is CPO Mendez, the other two should be Commander Keyes and Dr. Halsey, which is a female and thus not represented here. :/

ignorance Tue Aug 12 at 12:07 EST
to those of you who are bitching, you obviously haven't kept up with the entire story. this isn't artwork that was commissioned by microsoft. this is a project that was put together by several concept artists and a screenwriter that they hope to pitch to microsoft in order to get interest in the movie stirred up again. Mayimbe is right in ignoring the CAD order until it is proven that these works are, in reality, property of microsoft. Like he said, they are basically fan works at the moment, so microsoft really can't have them pulled from any sites.

uhh... Tue Aug 12 at 09:12 EST
@joe, the only spelling error i can find is 'top' rather than to. i wasn't aware that simply by grace of being a microsoft lawyer, one was exempt from making the occasional typing error. seeing as 'top' would not be picked up as a spelling error by spell check, your argument of the email being 'fake' really holds no grounds.

A nice picture - other than the fact it's been RUINED buy the stupid 'Latio Review' stamp in the middle. Nice work....
PermalinkVery confused Tue Aug 12 at 08:08 EST
I just looked at the picture, which I thought was cool then skimmed over the threatening email only to read FYI. Mr Weston which is my surname. For a minute I thought I was going to be asked to follow the white rabbit.

@Joe I double-checked the letter and didn't see any spelling errors(did find some in your post, though.) Mind pointing them out? The letter looks pretty legit to me. BTW anyone know wtf that guy was saying in Hungarian?

What a juvenile response. Tue Aug 12 at 06:12 EST
'Concept Art' is not 'fan art made by an artist in Hollywood'. If the studios paid for this then its to be created its theirs. Your argument comparing this to homemade work is flawed, as that is freely offered by the owners. If your going to publish work against the wishers of the owner, then stand up and acknowledge that rather than hiding behind bullshit justifications.

hmm Tue Aug 12 at 00:04 EST
That letter has spelling errors, no real legal affairs employee from Microsoft would EVER may a spelling error like that. I do not believe it. And these pieces of concept art are nowhere near being copyrighted through Microsoft so I still dont understand why someone from Microsoft would claim to have them taken down. That letter is not real, i assure you of it.

Buddy have some respect. You obviously come to this site for the awesome movie news. These guys are pretty quick and accurate, and they have an excellent sense of humour. Let them do their job and give the people the info they want. Don't call them pendejo... Puta.

Hey pendejo Mon Aug 11 at 23:50 EST
Did you get authorization from the artist? This guy has every right to question you and ask you to pull the images down, who cares about Hungary, this is a legal situation. Mr. Tough guy, people like you piss me off. Go crawl back in your hole.

Microsoft only is threatening cuz they want to fuck up the movie!!!! the first script they paid a million for a script to fuck up the movie and now we have a guy that is writing a script on his own free will and following the books to make it right. i don't give a shit what Microsoft thinks i just want a good halo movie thats made right. Microsoft just wants money!!! and if they want money make the movie right.
