Halo 3 -> OriginsĮdit: Oh, and Spartan Assault actually takes place in-between Halo 3 and 4.
Wars -> Prototype/The Babysitter -> Forward Unto Dawn -> Fall Of Reach -> The Package/Babysitter -> Reach. Watch Odd One Out whenever after Halo 2 or so, it's noncanon and fuckin hilarious. The idea is to introduce you to the concepts of the universe in a more organic way. Not perfectly accurate as there's a lot of timejumps in everything, but optimized for viewing order in my opinion. I would recommend taking Legends on an episode by episode basis.Įdit 2: Made an episode specific timeline. Most episodes are in the bulk of the Covie war, so it really has to be watched before Reach, but, Fall of Reach establishes Blue Team, so you kinda need to watch that first. Halo Legends is a mixed bag, as every short happens at different times, but, generally, I placed it where it generally fits. Halo 4 -> Spartan Assault(?) -> Nightfall -> Guardians Wars -> Forward Unto Dawn -> Fall of Reach -> Legends -> Reach Halo Legends (2010 Video) PG-13 120 min Animation, Action, Adventure 6. If you want the best viewing experience, then it's definitely Halo 2 -> ODST -> Halo 3 as there's only one section alluded to at the very end that is exclusive to Halo 3, whereas the rest of the game is concurrent with Halo 2. So there's a bit of a question as to where ODST goes.
#Halo movies in order series#
Despite the series being the biggest premiere on Paramount+ (although no actual data or numbers have been revealed) the series feels to just exist without making as much of a cultural footprint as it would have had it been made back in 2013 or if it was made today as a film.R/Halo Discord + LFG | Infinite Season 4 | 343 Plz | Game FAQs Then, a Halo series seemed like a big deal, but in the years between the series' announcement to finally making it to the screen, the specialness of a Halo series is nothing new and seems almost a given now. Published Halo Infinite has been delayed, so fill the Master Chief-shaped hole in your soul with these movies that dig into the franchise's deep lore. When the series was first announced, Netflix had just premiered season four of Arrested Development, and the streaming series was still a brand-new concept. Guillermo Del Toro at one point was considered to direct, but the film never panned out, and the idea was eventually reworked into a television series, first announced back in 2013 with Steven Spielberg producing. Alex Garland (28 Days Later) penned a script that was set to be produced by Peter Jackson and directed by Neil Blomkamp before the director would move on to his feature film District 9.
While the games often ignore this due to the primary focus of putting the player in an experience of living combat, a series being a more passive viewing experience allows for a deeper examination of the franchise's core principles and can rework them in exciting ways.Īt the height of Halo's popularity, there were plans for making a big-budget film based on Halo. The series showcases human characters that are just as cruel and violent as the alien forces of the Covenant. The series does interrogate the lore of the Halo franchise, positioning the human forces of UNSC as people so caught up in their war they are willing to do anything, even kill children if it means a greater hold for humanity. There have been many cultural readings that link the connection in ideology to the real-life Spartans and fascist or militaristic organizations, and the Halo series rightfully digs into that subtext to inform its characters. Related: Halo: Who Are Spartans and How Do They Differ From the Video Games? The series truly kicks into gear when Master Chief is given a direct order to kill an innocent civilian who refuses to cooperate with a propaganda campaign, and instead of just doing what he is told makes a choice for himself based on a gut feeling that goes against years of programming and training. Just like the Spartan armies of real life, children are inscribed into being trained to be warriors, and it is an entire culture based around the glory of battle. The Spartans are a military outfit, named after the Spartan armies, engineered and augmented to be faceless living weapons.
