Halo - All Live Action Trailers (So far)

Описание: Halo: Landfall 00:00
Released: 2007
Directed by: Neill Blomkamp

Easily one of the most popular Halo short ever made, Landfall was a part of the ridiculously massive Halo 3 marketing campaign and served as the franchise's first real foray into live-action work. Plus, it was directed by a pre-District 9 Neill Blomkamp — if you watch Landfall and District 9 back-to-back, it's easy to see the stylistic similarities.

The Life 06:58
Released: 2009
Directed by: Rupert Sanders

The Life (otherwise known as We are ODST) was Microsoft's first real expansion of their live-action Halo work. The result is one of the best looks at the ordinary soldiers of the Halo universe: The Life is a somber piece of work and does a lot more to humanize its stars than most other live-action pieces, even to this day.

Birth of a Spartan 09:23
Released: 2010
Directed by: Noam Murro

If The Life focused on the humanity of Halo's heroes, then Birth of a Spartan looked at how the war stripped that humanity away. Everything about Birth of a Spartan is somber and desolate, with an intentionally muted color palette and zero dialogue whatsoever. It tells a tale that's been ignored in most Halo games and looks at the Spartans as actual people — not weapons.

Deliver Hope 11:57
Released: 2010
Directed by: Noam Murro

Despite making the jump to live-action, most Halo trailers shied away from showing the epic battles between humanity and the Covenant. Deliver Hope changed that: released ahead of Halo: Reach, the short told the story of Noble Team prior to the events seen in the game. It's a surprisingly faithful representation of the Halo lore — if anything, it proves that a Halo movie could work.

Remember Reach 14:11
Released: 2010
Directed by: Noam Murro

As a series of short films, Remember Reach told the story of the average citizens of Reach as the Covenant made landfall for the first time.

The Commissioning 16:55
Released: 2012
Directed by: Nicolai Fuglsig

At its core, The Commissioning is the story of the UNSC super-ship Infinity. In Halo 4, the ship and her crew aren't given much of an introduction, but The Commissioning fixes that: not only do fans catch another glimpse of the average soldiers of the Halo universe, but the trailer shows exactly what happened when the Infinity reached Requiem near the beginning of Halo 4 in chilling fashion.

Scanned 18:53
Released: 2012
Directed by: Tim Miller

Following The Commissioning, fans were craving a similarly-styled trailer featuring the Master Chief. They wouldn't have to wait long: a few months later, the Chief-centric Scanned debuted. Not only did it show off a few of Halo 4's new enemies, but it touched on the Master Chief's origins as well — something of which fans still haven't seen much.

All Hail 21:05 and The Cost 21:58
Released: 2015
Directed by: Rupert Sanders

All Hail and The Cost are a clever look at the duality of Halo 5. In All Hail, newcomer Locke boasts about how the great hero has fallen; in The Cost, the Master Chief criticizes Locke about his methods. Neither side presents a clear winner, and Microsoft has given no clues on which version is canon — basically, the trailers are an extremely effective way of keeping fans on their toes without spoiling a thing.

A Hero Falls 22:52
Released: 2015
Directed by: (Unknown)

A Hero Falls is almost the complete opposite of its predecessors: it's about as on-the-nose as you can get. It's a bit of a stretch to think that the Master Chief would lose his life to a building after four games of blasting ancient aliens and parasitic zombies, but it still raises the question: will John-117 survive the events of Halo 5: Guardians, or will he finally succumb to all the fighting?
