If done right, Halo would open to $100 million. -- nm - David Aug 10, 12:31 2
- I'd go see HALO and have never played the game. -- nm - TWuG Aug 10, 12:32 1
  - I'd pay to see Halo played on the big screen at my local theater. -- nm - Max Aug 10, 12:52

- I meant, purely in $. Here's the BOM list -- (link) - Roger More Aug 10, 12:32 12
  - Master Chief might be the most popular character in North America for males aged 18-49. - David Aug 10, 12:34 11
    - Mmm... it certainly isn't an ST-only thing, but I think it's an ST-enhanced thing. -- nm - nubby, Astronauts champion Aug 10, 12:47 2
      - (Well, depending upon what you mean by the word "character".) - nubby, Astronauts champion Aug 10, 12:48 1
        
        In general. Halo 3 sales topped $300 million in the first week. - David Aug 10, 12:51
    - For all the Halo-related postings ever on ST, and there are always a lot, I have zero idea who Master Chief is -- nm - con_carne Aug 10, 12:42 2
      - Imagine Alvin York in futuristic, nearly impregnable armor fighting off an alien invasion. - David Aug 10, 12:48
      - think ... John McClane crossed with Shane crossed with The Man With No Name crossed with John "Hannibal" Smith. - Beryllium Aug 10, 12:47
    - DAMN WOMAN! I just gave you sweet loving five minutes ago. Are you trying to kill me? -- nm - Master Chef Aug 10, 12:40
    - yeah - I'm pretty detached from the whole Halo phenomenon, and it would take a lot for me to over come my "video games make crappy movies" prejudice - Roger More Aug 10, 12:40 3
      - Watch ML's link below. I'd be curious to hear your thoughts. -- nm - David Aug 10, 12:46 1
        
        No youtube at work - it will have to wait until tonight -- nm - Roger More Aug 10, 12:49
      - I sat through some channel's half hour special on Halo, and that was pretty cool. -- nm - Spawn Aug 10, 12:42
