Lol. My expectations were pretty much rock bottom but man oh man its even worse then I expected. My sister and I are huge halo nerds and we're going to hate-watch and riff the shit out of this monstrosity. Edit: Sidenote I wonder if this trailer will finally kill the slowed down popsong cliche once and for all?
Why tf is there a mini-trailer for the trailer right at the beginning of the trailer? "Official Trailer Starts Now", why didn't it start 5 seconds ago?
But also yeah this looks shit. Apparently they decided to basically just make up a new story? And what's with the human antagonist working with the Covenant?
Common trend today. You see it with all movie trailers now...its a response to the nature of the internet where based on analytics you essentially have 5 seconds to get someone interested to watch the rest of the video because the internet has made us all ADD.
Yeah I thought the whole point was that humans were anathema to the covenant religion. I feel like if humans could have joined a lot more would have opted for that instead of getting glassed.
Its not that they're an anathema to the religion per say. Humans were chosen by the Forerunners thousands of years ago to inherit the mantle of responsibility after they passed (hence: "reclaimer") and the hierarchs of the covenant (Truth, Mercy, and Regret) knew that within the covenant hierarchal structure this would automatically by default make Human beings the new leadership caste (especially since Forerunner tech automatically activates around them).
....that would be...not well liked by entrenched power structures....so they covered it up and tried to exterminate humans before the truth could come out.
Edit: to be clear though: yeah, a human being serving as a sort of missionary or servant to the hierarchs on what I assume is high charity is about a big a nonstarter as you'll find within the lore.
Yeah, that's what I liked so much about the covenant as villains. They don't have some grand plan to wipe out or enslave humanity, they're just extremely corrupt and petty.
Plus the whole thing where they really needed a human to activate the Halo. Which means every time they tried it was necessarily with Master Chief nearby (because they had to capture MC's allies). Like this they can just take her without anyone even knowing.
It's for autoplay when it's embedded in twitter or other sites. The video will start playing and people will rush to pause it. You only get a few seconds to get their attention. Or if they have it set to not autoplay but click the video, they're likely to pause it and keep scrolling so again you need a few seconds.
The worst fucking platform of all time
It premiered during a football game and was getting promoted all through the first half.
But why keep that in the YouTube upload?
Because they just rip it from the broadcast
