In its first day online, the HBO Halo Movie Cynics Database garnered 150 new entries (with 10 still in the queue to be processed) – and Cybrfrk has added filtering and searching to the interface, making it easier to pore through the results. If you dig carefully, you might even find entries by names you…

Gruntsbane has a Christmas strip for you up at Halo Babies – and it’s Episode 117! How fitting. Go read!

Podtacular has released its final episode for 2005 – you can grab Ep 41, Customs and Call-ins, from their site. Thanks, HaloPlanet.

DoT_Gunslinger points out that today’s User Friendly is Halo-related again… you gotta watch out when loved ones warn you like that.

Ever had someone whistle a snatch of the Gilligan’s Island theme, and then be stuck with it in your head for the rest of the day? (Oops… sorry.) Yesterday, R-T3 wondered if anyone knew the tune that was used in the background of the Halo Demo Promo, released in mid-2002… and Marty O’Donnell himself chimed…

F13ND sat down with Saiyan, of Team3D, to discuss the team’s performance at the MLG Chicago tournament recently. You can read the result on Team3D’s website.

In what has to be one of the more amazingly coincindental bits of timing this week, Chairleg Productions has released a new movie entitled ‘The Editing Process’ today – you can download WMP9, QT7, and PSP versions from their downloads page. This video focuses on the making of the Halo movie… and if it wasn’t…

GameTrailers has posted a segment of GTtv that focuses on a Far Cry: Instincts fan who’s recreated a number of Halo maps for Far Cry: Instincts – the video contains footage of both the Halo versions and their FC counterparts, along with running commentary from the fan. Fun stuff! Thanks, 3Suns. (To view it, you…

Heh. In Surfers Paradise, in southern Queensland (east coast of Australia), there’s an attraction called ‘Spacewalker’ – their website, as noticed by lightinfantry, uses an image that is rather familiar to most of us here. (I’ve taken a screenshot, on the off chance that any legal interest generated by this news post actually makes them…

Chris Anderson is putting together Chronicles of Pain, a Halo machinima due in February. The teaser for this film passed the MPRRS this morning, so we’re passing it on to you. It was originally submitted in QuickTime 7 format (H.264 encoding) – weighs in at 11.5 mb. For those who have trouble with that codec,…

Dear beloved HBO… the time has come to let the Halo fans vent their spleen! We all know there’s a Halo movie on the horizon… so what keeps you up at night that those unfamiliar with our beloved Halo might wreck? Cortana as the sassy sidekick? The insertion of a BFG in the MC’s arsenal?…

Eep, almost forgot. It’s Wednesday, so it’s time for another One One Se7en. Stuntmutt looks at another legitimate strategy in today’s entry.

Stephen Loftus found some new information about the scale of Covenant Assault Carriers, and has therefore redone his UNSC/Covenant Ship Scale Chart. Those things are MONSTERS!

Several members of 2old2play showed up at MLG Chicago last week – and Joel “doodirock” Albert wrote up their experience for the website. It was a pretty doomed attempt right from the start… but they made the best of it. Thanks to doodi and DSmooth for the heads-up.

I was gonna let this one go… but everyone and their brother is writing about it, so I guess I need to say something. A couple of days ago we mentioned that Halo Zero, a fan-made sidescroller, was #10 on Gamespot’s most popular game list. Yesterday, it shot to number 1 – and it’s still…

Tied The Leader is back, with a couple of extensive posts – and more, farther down. The most recent stuff: XerxdeeJ went to Chicago (writeup is still coming) , the TTL Gunslingers went looking for a fight on the 2old2play forums… and wrote up the results, and another Gunslinger wrote up a LAN event, complete…

PHW is mostly a Half-Life 2 related comic site… but the Weekday Strip involves characters from a number of games, and the most recent strip involves your friendly neighborhood Master Chief. Thanks, Vapor.

Sometime back in the Jurassic Period, Schooly D asked Pinkuh (who is part of his Halo 2 clan, Team Schooly D) if she’d make a poster for the clan. She said sure… not having any idea how much trouble it would cause her. It got finished last night, though, and she posted it on our…

Now THIS is dedication. Nogard watched the Limited Edition DVD, and noticed that Joe Staten flips through a 160-page Halo 2 script on camera. He went to the trouble of transcribing as much as he could see – and posted it online. (It’s an angelfire site, so even though it’s a tiny page, it might…

Scifibrain.com interviewed Nathan Fillion, who played Captain Mal Reynolds in Firefly – turns out the guy’s a Halo 2 fanatic. The interview eventually gets around to his filmmaking stuff… but the first chunk is ALL about Halo. Pretty funny! Thanks, Cornballer.
