They had a big trailer reveal during one of the NFL conference final games. Was one of those things where you watch for a single reason why it might be interesting and there was just nothing.
How incompetent do you have to be to frick up a halo adaptation? It’s all just a hodgepodge of tropes taken from massively successful sci fi movies and books.
Then why even bother making a Halo show? Or do they seriously think that by taking a known IP and using it for something else, they would get the original IP fans AND attract new fans?
A: The Message
B: Legacy media still thinks of games as a scary rival and wants to prevent audience migration at all costs, even though more people play halo than watch any of their garboshit shows.
These people all live in a bubble. The weird thing is that THEY are the people (the media/culture manipulators) who create the very bubble they live in, and yet they still fall into these old (fake) paradigms of programmed thought.
It would be like a Standford Skinner Box Scientist going home, after a long day of testing and shaping rat behavior, and pressing a random red button thinking his dinner was going to be magically served.
The original bungie games were great, even the spin-offs. You are a contrarian or some salty arena shooter homosexual, ass mad that nobody wanted to 1v1 you in quake for 3 hours anymore.
That actually makes sense. Man has been slaying ayys for so long, but never slayed pussy. All of that killing has to have made him want to frick someone at one point, hence his relationship with Cortana.
The best part about this scene is the context that this is the first time Chief is experiencing emotions since becoming a Spartan. Just staring at people on the subway. Later, he goes on a walk through a park and sees someone walking their dog, only to get sad because he suddenly remembered he had a dog growing up. It's incredible how awful this show is on every level
Do you think Mass Effect would have a better or worse chance at being successful? I think ME has deeper lore, so less easy to frick it up. I still believe!
By making it literally nothing like halo. Its just generic angry army man who whines about his feelings and argues with his girlfriend. Literally nothing like the real chief in the games.
>How incompetent do you have to be to frick up a halo adaptation?
Just have a bunch of white women in charge. 100% of the time they are behind scenes like
the director first made an episode on Black Mirror about the prime minister fricking a pig. I mean of all the directors, picking such an ultra woketard was the death knell of this series. But honestly in this day in age I highly doubt a masculine power fantasy would survive a live action adaption.

and not only that, the politician was presented as a "tragic hero" willing to "do anything" to serve his constituents and country
it was the most shit-pathetic diametrically opposite of reality shit I have ever seen someone try to pass off commenting on politics
How can you do an interesting character study of a protagonist who is literally a dead behind the eyes cyborg conditioned to obey commands no matter how suicidal? Before fanboys start crying this is literally how bungie staff defined him in the making of halo 2 documentary. Chief is bland by design.

By following him at a time when he wasn't that
You do realize that the Halo show does not need to be the bold and the beautiful? It could be just an action show without exploring master chiefs feelings and it would be instantly better than what we got.
what a lot of people fail to understand is that halo is a war epic first. 343 doesn't even get it. It thinks the halo story is all the forerunner shit. That was just backdrop, staging, that's it. The blueprint for halo is easy, all they had to do was ape shit like band of brothers or generation kill. Copy any and all war stories like black hawk down. How they thought they could turn halo into some scifi thriller is beyond me.
Halo is definitely a space opera, but one told through the post 9/11 lens of military jingoism. It's not a pure war epic, though the balance should heavily lean towards it.
Exactly. And taking off the helmet was just a bad decision altogether. Part of the appeal of Halo was the mystery, but taking off the helmet just kills it instantly. And once that is done, you can't get it back. Now we are stuck with a whiny cuck that no one likes.
taking the helmet off isn't that big of a deal. Spartans do take them off. The reason it was taken off was moronic as frick and that ruined it.

>taking the helmet off isn't that big of a deal. Spartans do take them off.
Master Chief doesn't, unless if he's being fixed by the science nerds and even then he doesn't show his face to the audience.
This exactly, the marines are going through it, facing against enemies they were never physically equipped to combat, show how hopeless it really is for them, ans then shows up the chief, the collective combat/tacticool/engineering prowess of humanity poured into one man, a modern day greek hero to turn the tide and give hope, and rallying the ragtag in over theyre heads grunts to survive and presss on, couldve been kino
>How can you do an interesting character study of a protagonist who is literally a dead behind the eyes cyborg conditioned to obey commands no matter how suicidal?
That sounds like it should be pretty easy, right? You examine what happened to him to make him that way, and look at how it's going to colour his interactions with regular people. Exactly what The Fall of Reach novel does.
An obsession with "subverting your expectations" and having "toxic masculinity" and "gamer bro culture" as boogeymen helps. You could easily just do one season per game with minimal changes and it'd be easy.
>Season 1: Reach. Adapt the game, maybe put some stuff from the novel in so Chief has something to do >Season 2: Halo. Really straightforward.
Season 3: Halo 2. Could do some cool stuff with switching between Chief and Arbiter's viewpoints.
Season 4: Halo 3: Huge finale.
It's so easy. But Johnson is too cool of a black guy and too much of a Jarhead, so he's out. And there weren't enough women, Chinese people and gays, so everyone else is gone or changed. It's just change for the sake of change in an attempt to cast off the existing audience and grow one that suits their coastal liberal aesthetics more.
So they pivot from cool military sci-fi (Which always seems to attract more right-leaning fans) to political thriller with some action elements.
It was greenlit for a second season before the first season even premiered, and the first season was so bad that promotion for Season 2 has basically just been the lead actor shitting all over Season 1 and the showrunners promising it will be different. Pretty similar to Witcher in how they completely burned every bit of goodwill the fans had for this show.
>yeah season 2 is just going to be a reboot of season 1.
it takes at least 3 years before audiences tolerate a reboot, and even then it is doomed to fail if the first one sucked.
Do you think Mass Effect would have a better or worse chance at being successful? I think ME has deeper lore, so less easy to frick it up. I still believe!
Mass Effect isn't a blatant masculine power fantasy like Halo was built on. More like Bioware wanting their on IP that was like star wars and star trek. But it would still end up sucking because they would somehow make white males 1D evil.
This is like ghostbusters 2016 all over again. Or the doom movie. Has literally nothing to do with the source material and the writers and directors admit to having zero idea why the franchises are so popular.
In the show the covenant have a human chick who works for them. She can activate forerunner tech. She also kills people with a mini energy sword that comes out of her fingernail. And her and Master Chief frick. I'm not kidding
I really thought it couldn’t get worse than what 343 has already done, but Microsoft finds a way every time. It’s almost admirable how committed they are to killing this franchise.
I hope to god you mean the original halo 2 and not that abomination in your picture. Because Halo 2 remastered had the ugliest cortana of all time. She looks like some fat mexican girl.
Halo 1 plays out like a feature film and could've been directly adapted as such, though that would be a lot of CGI so they'd need to go balls deep like the World of Warcraft film
Yep, have the first couple of seasons (or even the first one) be about the fall of Reach and have the Covenant presented as literal monsters.
Then when they reach the first ring you start to show scenes from the pov of the arbiter and half-jaw.
Why didnt they just make Contact Harvest into a season? No need to make awful looking spartans and they get a canonical racemixing couple by the end for diversity points.
Apparently the show has a 6 month time jump and a bunch of soft retcons. This approach worked wonders for Resident Evil, so I'm not surprised Halo adopted it. Each season should have a time jump where characters disappear without explanation. Not because of scheduling issues; just do it for the hell of it.
no he speaks in 1. people say hes as a silent protagonist because the only things he does say are cool one liners and talk about the plot in cutscenes so that its easy for anyone to self insert into. i cant believe they continue to frick up the most basic things about such a simple character.
frick me sideways and call me Bonny.
those israelites turned Cortana into the chief, frick ms, frick halo, frick all of those dick mutilated, child raping israelites.
looks like fricking shit. maybe its just the lighting but even the costume looks shit. they nailed irl halo already about 11 years ago, and that was for a fricking trailer not a full production
It was shit the moment they introduced the Covenant chick. Her entire existence goes against why the Covenant are even at war with humans which is the point of the fricking franchise. It would be like if the Last of Us show forgot to make Ellie immune.
is that real. Chief still speaks in games though hes never been completely silent
is that real. Chief still speaks in games though hes never been completely silent
Yes its real, chief didnt speak in halo 1, as far as I remember, but he slowly started to speak more and more as the series progressed.
This makes no fricking sense. You literally see John stick Cortana in his helmet in the first 15 minutes of Combat Evolved in "Cyborgs and AI Constructs go first"
How did these looney tunes homosexuals frick up even the most simplest of narrative.
The show has Spartans having emotion chips above their ass to control them or whatever, and there’s a point earlier in the shoe where Cortana shuts down Chief’s body entirely so he doesn’t ape out on Halsey, so I think Cortana plugs directly into his brain rather than suit in the show.
t. pirated Ep1, laughed in the threads each week after that.
this was retconned in the new season. the second season is apparently going to be a "soft reboot" with certain story lines in the first season being dropped completely
>The ill-conceived romance between John-117 and Makee is out, while Cortana’s takeover of Master Chief at the end of the first season has similarly been jettisoned. In its place, a new showrunner, David Wiener, has been drafted in and the man behind the helmet – Pablo Schreiber – has been vocal about how this new season is far better than what came before
If you told my Halo obsessed self in 2007-2010 that there will be a big budget live action Halo tv series in 2022 and then you described it just like in your post, I wouldn't possibly be able to conceive that you were being serious.
there are countless things i could tell my younger self that they flat out would not believe, without even going past 2010 >the final game in the banjo-kazooie series is a set of vehicle based challenges >jim raynor opens SC2 by pining over a picture of pre-infestation kerrigan >one of the world's most celebrated TV series is a drama about making meth starring the dad from malcolm in the middle >a family guy copy by the same people will vastly outstrip family guy in terms of overall quality
It was so fricking easy to take the ads from 3/ODST/Reach and make a war mockumentary.
In 2-3 years AI video generation is going to be good enough that you can just type “ODST band of brothers” into the prompt, train it on YouTube footage and spit out a whole season.
You guys come at things from the perspective that the storyline needs to make sense and prop up the protagonist. But you really need to look at it from the mind of a demented SJW who hates humanity. They literally, LITERALLY think everything is inherently racist and sexist and you just need to point out how. This is whats taught in american Academia, this is seriously how they think. Then actually mentally ill people online defend them and say its not that bad or we are stupid for looking into it, thats what we call gaslighting.
If the protagonist is a straight handsome white man he MUST be humbled and learn to accept the help of strong indipendent black gay women. He must learn the source of his strength is womankind, he must accept that without his diverse friends he is nothing, without women he is nothing. They also have an internal hiearchy of how they view sex and race, making them the most hateful racist people on the planet. Only after you realize these things can you understand a modern hollywood production >Straight white male, most prevailed and inherently evil >gay white male, docile and acceptable >gay black man, this is ideal
>straight white woman, inherently diverse because no a man but still white, still evil >gay white woman, double diversity bonus >black woman, Black folk are inherently subhuman therefore uplifting them is inherently virtuous. Double points for race plus gender diversity >gay black woman, this is nearly max diversity >gay, crippled, black woman, does a higher form of woke champion exist?
>troony: the lowest form of human being. Therefor bolstering trannies grants us the most woke points (make it black to go even further)
Hope you found this helpful. As you can see from my list, if the protagonist is a straight white man its logically impossible for him to be a good character and for the show to be good.
>There is a timeline out there where Blomkamp directed a Halo movie with Peter Jackson keeping him on a leash to not shit things up
I hope me in that timeline is fricking happy.
It's out?
People sure forgot about this trash quickly.
They had a big trailer reveal during one of the NFL conference final games. Was one of those things where you watch for a single reason why it might be interesting and there was just nothing.
xbros... i cant take it anymore...
PSBros keep winning.
Even with no games!
How incompetent do you have to be to frick up a halo adaptation? It’s all just a hodgepodge of tropes taken from massively successful sci fi movies and books.
Well, casting a giga-israelite as MC and always having his helmet off is a great start.
running theme with most adaptation flops
Then why even bother making a Halo show? Or do they seriously think that by taking a known IP and using it for something else, they would get the original IP fans AND attract new fans?

the theory is the games were shit, so the people who enjoy them would enjoy anything, so they can attract new audiences no effort.
But how would they know games are shit if they never even lookes at them?
they prejudged. They have a prejudice towards video games in general and assume they're all shit.
The original bungie games were great, even the spin-offs. You are a contrarian or some salty arena shooter homosexual, ass mad that nobody wanted to 1v1 you in quake for 3 hours anymore.
With scenes like this
>Here's that super soldier I was tell you about
>a super soldier that has been trained from a young age and is essentially put on missions 24/7 finds time to stare at a couple on the subway
lol wut?
He wouldn't be allowed off a military installation unless it was to kill aliums.
that's exactly what I'm saying. This show fricks up on levels so moronic it literally hurts my soul.
Enough of that and he would eventually say frick it let the Aliens have earth.
That actually makes sense. Man has been slaying ayys for so long, but never slayed pussy. All of that killing has to have made him want to frick someone at one point, hence his relationship with Cortana.
master chief is a gay pedophile in the canon. its stated in the novels that only a mind of a pedophile can be a master of strategy like that
This is truly what the series needed: Master Chief's quest for sex.
The best part about this scene is the context that this is the first time Chief is experiencing emotions since becoming a Spartan. Just staring at people on the subway. Later, he goes on a walk through a park and sees someone walking their dog, only to get sad because he suddenly remembered he had a dog growing up. It's incredible how awful this show is on every level
Pretty normal to be repulsed by race mixing
literally me when I'm in public transport
>Master Cuck, do you mind telling me what you're doing in that shed?
>Masterchief without his helmet
Still can't believe they thought this was a good idea
>chief visibly disgusted by open racemixing
BASED
>MC is racist
i will now watch your show
the worst thing about this are those clothes
what is it, kevlar pajamas?
Do you think Mass Effect would have a better or worse chance at being successful? I think ME has deeper lore, so less easy to frick it up. I still believe!
By making it literally nothing like halo. Its just generic angry army man who whines about his feelings and argues with his girlfriend. Literally nothing like the real chief in the games.
if the director gave me their script I would have thrown this DVD on the table and ask how is his movie different.
>How incompetent do you have to be to frick up a halo adaptation?
Just have a bunch of white women in charge. 100% of the time they are behind scenes like

Master Chief shouldn't have even been the main character.
You frickers keep dropping this perfectly crafted bait in front of me.

nah, space opera is too much of something else. It's literally a war epic just set within the galaxy.

In every halo thread theres always this same queer talking about how bland chief is, is this the show runner?
they hated him because he spoke the truth
Gee. Almost as if the character was made for a fps game where you cobtrol him and insert yourself into the role.
Kek, this. This is what moronic progressives can never understand
It's simple, you make your character study shit on the Arbiter and follow the fricking plot of the games.
>How can you do an interesting character study of a protagonist who is literally a dead behind the eyes cyborg conditioned to obey commands no matter how suicidal?
That sounds like it should be pretty easy, right? You examine what happened to him to make him that way, and look at how it's going to colour his interactions with regular people.
Exactly what The Fall of Reach novel does.
The first season was literally all about women and feelings
Made by literal skin walkers
An obsession with "subverting your expectations" and having "toxic masculinity" and "gamer bro culture" as boogeymen helps. You could easily just do one season per game with minimal changes and it'd be easy.

I knew a couple white trash idiots at work who said their kids loved this show so i assumed all of you loved it.
Lol
The fate of Paramount now rests on Sonic's shoulders.
I didn't even know this dog shit got a second season.
It was greenlit for a second season before the first season even premiered, and the first season was so bad that promotion for Season 2 has basically just been the lead actor shitting all over Season 1 and the showrunners promising it will be different. Pretty similar to Witcher in how they completely burned every bit of goodwill the fans had for this show.

They'd 100% make Udina a white space racist rather than the pragmatic politician he was in ME1
>white space racist
We were all supposed to be this. Remember what they took from you.
And season 2 of The Witcher was just as bad, if but worse, than the first. Good model to follow
>Pretty similar to Witcher in how they completely burned every bit of goodwill the fans had for this show.
Except the Witcher at least had Cavill. Halo was a shit show before the show, and EVERYONE knew it was going to be shit leading up to it.
At least the first season of witcher is still pretty good. Right?
no youll find consistently only people who like it are the types to watch anything.
Isn't he like a undead or something after season 1?
Halo is a dead franchise. Microsoft don't know how to manage IP's, they put a bunch of women in charge for diversity points and hope for the best.
They are doing the same shit with Blizzard, though at least Blizzard is already a shadow of it's former glory.
Welp, some guy named Jeremy that posted at 3 fricking in the morning said it was bad so I guess we can all agree.
Yeah
Is it true that his hologram girlfriend watches while he fricks chicks?
That's the reason the show will fail. Liberals want men to be cuckolds, women being cuckolds ruins the whole power fantasy for them.
Yeah if I remember right Cortana had to watch Chief frick some girl in S1.
They made Cortana into a cuckquean.
If LOTR in 1999 can make hobbits and human scale work
Why can’t we make a 7ft solider work in 2024
Just put him on a box and put her in a trench
They should’ve had him fricking a sangheili female.
This is like ghostbusters 2016 all over again. Or the doom movie. Has literally nothing to do with the source material and the writers and directors admit to having zero idea why the franchises are so popular.
Master Chief had sex with the Covenant. That is all you need to know about this series.
even worse, that covenant was a human.
>Master Chief had sex with the Covenant
But that's base-
>that covenant was a human.
Nvm cringe
>An actual, unironic scene where Master Chief fricks a human covenant chick while Cortana watches from the corner as a cuck
This got a season 2
drives one to drink how shit floats to the top sometimes.
this is the same studio that green lit like 5 different star trek shows from Alex Kurtzman just because he sucked Tom Crusie's wiener.
>Human covenant chick
>Human covenant
What?
don't bother trying to understand
In the show the covenant have a human chick who works for them. She can activate forerunner tech. She also kills people with a mini energy sword that comes out of her fingernail. And her and Master Chief frick. I'm not kidding
I really thought it couldn’t get worse than what 343 has already done, but Microsoft finds a way every time. It’s almost admirable how committed they are to killing this franchise.
Halo is responsible for the gaming industry going to shit so this is karma
>Halo is responsible
u fokkin wot? CoD carries more blame for being the Madden/Fifa of FPS.
How did they handwave the the stupid shit from the first season.
There was a season one? I thought the show was still stuck making the first season.
I waited too long for a Halo show. It was moronic but I'm still watching season 2
consoom
I don't have whatever shit streaming service it's on anyway so I don't care. I'll probably watch it over the weekend if I have time.
lemme guess, the entire cast are all israelites again? with the usual black commander and mutt boyfriend?
Good, let it and the people who greenlit it rot
I'm sure the one guy that watches this show is very disappointed
I'll still watch it for my SNU SNU waifu
>easily the worst character in this shitshow
What did Anon mean by this?
/hg/ could write a better Halo story and all they do is Escharum and THE ENDLESS posting.
We could never write such CHIILING dialogue as this
Never forget what they took from you.
just watch porn at this point
porn is gay
Okay, troony
Give me it's Halo 2 Cortana with 4's body
I hope to god you mean the original halo 2 and not that abomination in your picture. Because Halo 2 remastered had the ugliest cortana of all time. She looks like some fat mexican girl.
Give me CE Cortana with CE's body.
How is it even possible to downgrade from 5 to Infinite? At the very least they should be the same. 343 need to be dissolved.
Halo CE Cortana with Halo 4's body
>Master Chief had sex with the Covenant
imagen if it was him https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIZHgq0T3L0
?si=vC17LQv_EiKCsCXn
For me it's Halo 3 u.u
we've moved past sexualizing artificial persons
That's not Halo 2 though.
I will make her a promise that I can't keep.
Reminder that the Weapon is basically like her daughter.
But nobody cares because Infinite is garbage and she's nowhere near as hot as H4 Cortana.
Only because they put too many clothes on her. She does have a good ass though.
I am actually astounded this show even got approval for a second season
This review isnt so bad
https://collider.com/halo-season-2-review/
Halo 1 plays out like a feature film and could've been directly adapted as such, though that would be a lot of CGI so they'd need to go balls deep like the World of Warcraft film
Was it really so hard to do something like this?
if they were smart, they wouldn't have covenant POV scenes until like the 3rd or 4th season.
Yep, have the first couple of seasons (or even the first one) be about the fall of Reach and have the Covenant presented as literal monsters.
Then when they reach the first ring you start to show scenes from the pov of the arbiter and half-jaw.
Legends and the bungie era live action trailers had more soul in it
If they could have just made a show with this same feel, not only would fans have loved it, I guarantee you critics and normies would have too.
>can you just be human
Why didnt they just make Contact Harvest into a season? No need to make awful looking spartans and they get a canonical racemixing couple by the end for diversity points.
the regulars lost
>It's over.
It's been over since Halo 3. Let it go...
Apparently the show has a 6 month time jump and a bunch of soft retcons. This approach worked wonders for Resident Evil, so I'm not surprised Halo adopted it. Each season should have a time jump where characters disappear without explanation. Not because of scheduling issues; just do it for the hell of it.
the only question that matters is does this season have weppa in it?
Personally it wasnt so bad until the end where they killed chief and had cortana essentially take over his corpse.
This is the TV shows reason why chief doesnt speak and its fricking stupid.
I have no clue how the frick they plan on continuing he story line now.
is that real. Chief still speaks in games though hes never been completely silent
Yes its real, chief didnt speak in halo 1, as far as I remember, but he slowly started to speak more and more as the series progressed.
no he speaks in 1. people say hes as a silent protagonist because the only things he does say are cool one liners and talk about the plot in cutscenes so that its easy for anyone to self insert into. i cant believe they continue to frick up the most basic things about such a simple character.
?si=YznTvNcS_KOy_735
frick me sideways and call me Bonny.
those israelites turned Cortana into the chief, frick ms, frick halo, frick all of those dick mutilated, child raping israelites.
looks like fricking shit. maybe its just the lighting but even the costume looks shit. they nailed irl halo already about 11 years ago, and that was for a fricking trailer not a full production
you're kidding, right?
It was shit the moment they introduced the Covenant chick. Her entire existence goes against why the Covenant are even at war with humans which is the point of the fricking franchise. It would be like if the Last of Us show forgot to make Ellie immune.
This makes no fricking sense. You literally see John stick Cortana in his helmet in the first 15 minutes of Combat Evolved in "Cyborgs and AI Constructs go first"
How did these looney tunes homosexuals frick up even the most simplest of narrative.
The show has Spartans having emotion chips above their ass to control them or whatever, and there’s a point earlier in the shoe where Cortana shuts down Chief’s body entirely so he doesn’t ape out on Halsey, so I think Cortana plugs directly into his brain rather than suit in the show.
t. pirated Ep1, laughed in the threads each week after that.
this was retconned in the new season. the second season is apparently going to be a "soft reboot" with certain story lines in the first season being dropped completely
>The ill-conceived romance between John-117 and Makee is out, while Cortana’s takeover of Master Chief at the end of the first season has similarly been jettisoned. In its place, a new showrunner, David Wiener, has been drafted in and the man behind the helmet – Pablo Schreiber – has been vocal about how this new season is far better than what came before
>be cast to play a masked character
>NOOOOO I WANT TO SHOW MY israeli FACE EVERYWHERE, YOU ARE A NAZI IF YOU WANT THE CHARACTER DONE RIGHT
Funny how you spergs never chimped out about his israeliness on the wire
>Halo TV series
>Main character is an unlikable mystery meat dyke
>Master chief is a side character that constantly takes his helmet off and cries
If you told my Halo obsessed self in 2007-2010 that there will be a big budget live action Halo tv series in 2022 and then you described it just like in your post, I wouldn't possibly be able to conceive that you were being serious.
there are countless things i could tell my younger self that they flat out would not believe, without even going past 2010

Is Sgt Johnson in season 2?
I'm torn between being happy for dabbing on halogays and being triggered because of another woke shit ruining a franchise.
Didn't the people working on it never play the games and just wanted to write their own thing? Of course it was going to be dogshit.
The fall, falls flat.
Everyday I wake up, look to the sky, wish death upon 343 Industries, then go about my day.
>we could’ve had band of brothers but with ODST
Damn…
It was so fricking easy to take the ads from 3/ODST/Reach and make a war mockumentary.
In 2-3 years AI video generation is going to be good enough that you can just type “ODST band of brothers” into the prompt, train it on YouTube footage and spit out a whole season.
>halo 4 looks like a masterpiece in retrospect
zamn it do be like that doh
You guys come at things from the perspective that the storyline needs to make sense and prop up the protagonist. But you really need to look at it from the mind of a demented SJW who hates humanity. They literally, LITERALLY think everything is inherently racist and sexist and you just need to point out how. This is whats taught in american Academia, this is seriously how they think. Then actually mentally ill people online defend them and say its not that bad or we are stupid for looking into it, thats what we call gaslighting.
If the protagonist is a straight handsome white man he MUST be humbled and learn to accept the help of strong indipendent black gay women. He must learn the source of his strength is womankind, he must accept that without his diverse friends he is nothing, without women he is nothing. They also have an internal hiearchy of how they view sex and race, making them the most hateful racist people on the planet. Only after you realize these things can you understand a modern hollywood production
>Straight white male, most prevailed and inherently evil
>gay white male, docile and acceptable
>gay black man, this is ideal
>straight white woman, inherently diverse because no a man but still white, still evil
>gay white woman, double diversity bonus
>black woman, Black folk are inherently subhuman therefore uplifting them is inherently virtuous. Double points for race plus gender diversity
>gay black woman, this is nearly max diversity
>gay, crippled, black woman, does a higher form of woke champion exist?
>troony: the lowest form of human being. Therefor bolstering trannies grants us the most woke points (make it black to go even further)
Hope you found this helpful. As you can see from my list, if the protagonist is a straight white man its logically impossible for him to be a good character and for the show to be good.
>There is a timeline out there where Blomkamp directed a Halo movie with Peter Jackson keeping him on a leash to not shit things up
I hope me in that timeline is fricking happy.
