Halsey being infected and frozen is a plot hole because Miranda implies she’s going to cure her eventually…. Wasn’t the whole point of the halo rings being built by the forerunners because the only way to fight the flood was by starving them/eliminating their food source. If there was a cure your telling me the most advanced alien species/Society couldn’t come up with one but Miranda Keys is? Did anyone do any research on this franchise before making a live action tv series about it. WTF
Thing is, a super advanced race missing something isn't actually that difficult to see as actually happening, lots of really smart people overlook really simple dumb solutions to things because they are looking in the wrong place, so its entirely possible the "dumb humans" in the right place at the right time could find something the more advanced species couldn't
Yeah your completely right I just realized that let’s see what bullshit they pull out of the shit show hat next season 😂
In the early lore, the humans were as advanced as the Forerunners and the Flood are corrupted Precursors (Creator of the other races). The Forerunners thought that humans had a cure but the flood was lulling the forerunners into a false sense of security. The only way to stop the flood is to starve them.
@@shanematthews1985Yeah nope. That’s exactly the opposite of what is reasonable
Something that hasn't happened in the show, by definition, is not a plot hole. You're just speculating.
This style of writing is the problem with most modern shows. The writers are too stupid to create a method for their plot to advance, so you simply have a main character do something so OUT of character and so stupid to advance the plot.... It's not natural and it's not believable. As soon as you lose belief in the plot or characters themselves, the show is done.
You don't watch modern shows. Or a lot of them. Or do you just have youtubers do it for you to base an opinion or whatever?
@@vidmasterK1either way, many shows have writers like this… way too many. So the point still stands.
@@vidmasterK1 A lot of shows on most streaming services are pure garbage with the exception of maybe HBO. Most SciFi shows are straight trash.
@@vidmasterK1Name three mainstream series / shows from the last 3 years that don't have this exact same issue.
@@CriticalTairiqueYou must have only watched She-hulk, Ms marvel, Halo and Lotr rings of power 😂
This is not Halo....Imagine a batman series where Bruce Wayne does not wear his suit nor use his gadgets but defeats criminals using the legal justice system and half the show is about Bruce Wayne fighting for control of Wayne industries..
the gotham tv show ?
Marvel's Iron Fist
I mean Batman in other time periods is still Batman even without his gadgets look at him in pirate times and caveman times
Imagine Batman willingly showing his face without any plot behind it that’s the halo series a character who we are never ever supposed to know his identity shown every episode
@@creatorsfreedom6734but that's young Bruce
I'll never forget that moment playing Halo: CE for the first time and everything goes all creepy, you see Covenant shooting at something in the dark and running away, but you know it can't be your team. What a fucking waste.
If this show had balls, Soren's family would have already been infected when they found them. It really doesn't make sense how any of them made it out to be honest.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. But that is also the legitimate disconnect! Id bet lots of money nearly everyone on the show has not even played that level “343 Guilty Spark”.
I honestly thought that everyone would be infected except for Soren and Kessler and it would tie into the Orion Project immunity and that would conveniently take care of Kwan.
lol even Paramount checked out of the series since they didn’t issue any copyright strikes.😂
Angry Joe liking this proves what I said earlier about them hate watching trying to hurt the show because of the copyright strikes the received in season one. No longer Angry Joe they just Angry Hoe’s
its a tax write off for paramount. its amazing how every big streaming platform has a shitshow. amazon has rings of power, netflix has witcher , hbo has that stupid velma show, paramount has halo, disney has boba fett show.... LMAO
@@ImotekhtheStormlord-tx2it every single one of them acting like the Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory girl who wants a golden goose... Bad eggs all around...
@@ImotekhtheStormlord-tx2it Amazon bout to tac on fallout to its rap sheet
I wouldn't be at all surprised if season 3 and the halo story only lasts about two episodes. Then it's back to earth to chat about politics.
"Hubris is something I would've accepted, but this is just pure human stupidity." - Exactly, words of wisdom Alex
Alex is too good for this show!
Stupidity as an "Extinction Level Event" is a thing, those creators pray to the god of "Total Idiocracy"
Alex is one of the fakest people on RUclips.@@LazarheaD
Wasn't it stupidity that released the flood in the actual games?
@@remrad4315 The Covenant's curiosty released the Flood according to Cortana.
The random scientist explaining how fungus works right after secretly touching it and going around high fiving people is so wild.
When Miranda asked her if she touched it and she gave that totally deceptive "no" Miranda needed to send her ass to the brig right after that.
What’s more wild is the people that do the same shit irl
Battlestar Galactica, 20 f@$# years ago, with Sci Fi chanell budget, made space batles better than a multimilion dolars series of Halo in 2024... This is painfull to watch
Facts
Any scifi show is a multimillion dollar series, lol. But I agree BSG is superior in every way.
@@GrimDarkNarrator even The marketing budget of The Halo series is huge
I legit think its like 15-18 yr olds that are so used to shit tv that they cant realize there used to be better movies and tv. How could u be a halo fan and like this??
Yeah, having no previous experience with halo this show is okay. But i understand why halo fans hate it cause i have seen a lot of shit adaptions of my own favourite stuff.
Same people who like Halo Infinite, it's all just teenagers loving the advanced movement and $30 Microtransactions lol, all of them grinding those Microsoft points as a side job
As a diehard halo fan, the action scenes are the only reason I follow this shit. Wish they would get rid of kwan and the covenant girl... I fuckin hate em.
Because this is the only live action halo we’re going to get for at least a decade.
Master Cheeks was always sexy, I love this show so much. Is so good, I watch it with my parents every night before night night
Says she’s going to grab a plasma rifle. Picks up a carbine and a needler.
“I’ve got two needlers”
You never forget your first😭😭
Except she said that after grabbing two needlers?!? Idk what ur getting at?
It's still a plasma weapon but the writers wouldn't have known that anyway so not giving them a pass
Everything about The Flood portion was nonsensical.
-Biologist lies about touching it
-Biologist makes no effort to be careful after touching it
-Biologist kills people - clearly something abnormal happening -and is placed in a standard jail cell with no containment of any kind
-Lab where the infection started is apparently the last place affected by it
-Everyone in the lab where it started seems unphased about the murder
-People in the command center are infected, although obviously this would be one of the most secure areas due to a restricted amount of people in/out during an active battle taking place
The list of stupidity could go on...
yea even todays current lvl 3 quarantine would have stopped it in its tracks. let alone in the future.
SHe must have worked at Wutani before being hired by ONI. I will never get over a dude sniffing some ALIEN MOLD in ALien: Covenant. Like you dont sniff mold at home, why do it on a foreign planet?
ONI one of the smartest human organizations in the Halo universe. Builds their main base on top of a huge Forerunner city without knowing, gets literally invaded from 3 separate entrances with guards actively being involved but alert no one and then a literal biological outbreak that could easily be contained and yet still no one noticed? Whats more ironic is they send ALL their spartans away aka the perfect soldiers to have contain the flood but nope send them in to do a suicide. Meanwhile during that suicide mission Ackerson then sends the "largest human fleet" to help the suicide mission when it was literally about to be executed by Kai? Like if she actually set that bomb off like she was supposed too that entire UNSC fleet would have literally warped in and blew up immediately lol
@@Ravenlord47111Literally just
Lock the doors? And boom the flood is contained
Introducing Flood is what ruined season ending for me. Or maybe the whole Halo universe.
I can sum this up in the words of my 5 year old. We are watching and I showed him a couple of cool parts. Where MC was crushing it. Then we started to watch reach episode. He looked at me dead in the eyes. "This would be way cooler if he had his armour." He destroyed my entire vibe.
Bruh, your child is more tuned in to the bs of the series than paramount.
You have a smart kid
You've raised him well.
“This Universe….” Is the new generic excuse that fans of all wronged IPs for some reason willingly accept as an excuse for trash writing. So sick of it.
Netflix Resident evil might disagree. 😅
@@Killgore-ip2yqthat show was crappy too.
Makes them feel better about it. In the back of their mind they can say that and tell themselves “it’s not ruined… “
Yep, just like how illumination ignored lore of the Super mario Bros series for the movie even said it's a different universe
The MCU has had long term consequences for the industry, one of them is normalizing the “ It’s a different UnIVeRsE” excuse for whenever they do an unfaithful adaptation
Kwan had like a better kill count in this season than the chief lol
Someone needs to tally that! 😂
Kwan's kill count includes the series
@@dalewalker1768lol case closed
Kwan: "I know Kwan-fu"
Chief: "Show me"
Halo: Kwanbat Evolved
Halo for me ended once my Noble Six was killed on Reach
Bungie walked away and so did I. This corpse of Halo just isn't the same
For those that have seen this episode, how tf did Mackee get far away from Chief after he killed the Arbiter. She was right there facing off against the Chief. Next cut she disappeared and chief has to reopen the door again. This is the kind of shit i don't understand. How can anyone enjoy this crap when the writing is so bad? And why doesn't Chief shoot Mackee before she disappears?
I can't even answer the first part of the question, Except, Chief doesn't want to shoot Makee because he stupidly loves her, Which their love story whatever that was all about is just empty and dull when they hardly had any build up moments while Makee proclaims she and Chief are so much alike without knowing him much And for what? Just because they had the same vision for the Keystone? Pathetic!
She ran really fast.
This is the golden era of the Angryjoeshow since everything sucks that's coming out
He's been running on overdrive lately
You ain’t lyin, we getting peak angry joe
I wonder how much more this man can take. He had to sit through Suicide Squad, Skull and Bones, Battlefront, and Halo.
So many lies. The season 2 halo TV series finale is a masterpiece of an episode. Seeing the flood/zombies in live action was a good surprise. The fight between master chief and the Arbiter having a 1v1 with a energy sword on the halo ring was unreal. This is a easy 10/10. GO WATCH IT RIGHT NOW
OMG if you didn't see this trash show 😮. I was watching thinking who thought this was OK. Only the flood part just barely works.
F the executives producers and writers who think they can write better than established lore f em all
Like bruh it was already all there for them they just had to make it look better than Xbox and they failed at that lmaoo
And that’s why shogun is the best show on right now, it’s actually got the game of thrones level of writing and directing and storytelling
Funny, that’s what they said about the source material and the fans.
"You're just a manbaby!"- Some Writer\Director
@@klord-is9ftEven if it was Ripa, it still feels like trash.
6 minutes of master chief in 8 hours of bs
Its unbelievable this sort of __it ever gets made OMG
The worst thing 343 Microsoft EVER made utter steaming pile of nonsensical tripe with hardly any action worth watching
Amazed this got made I found almost every minute utter boring nonsense. A complete travesty for halo fans
2 things i just realized
1 that jenine chick started the flood outbreak right next miranda. And the episode goes on for almost an hour that flood is killing and all that, and miranda is still in the same little office the entire time. She doesnt escape or anything. And by the end shes still in the same office and stuffed halsey in there. In the middle of a flood outbreak.
2 so this is the season finale. We saw chief fight 3/4 elites in fog, and duel arbiter. Thats it. Less fighting than season 1. And he kills 5 elites in the entire episode. Come on. Imagine playing “the maw” in halo 1 and you only killed 5 elites the entire mission 😭😭😭
Same energy as: Imagine finding the Proto Gravemind in “Keys” but there’s no Keys. There’s just no reason to grieve anyone, no reason to feel anything toward anyone, no reason to even give a damn.
The whole show is out of wack 😭😭 like a huge complaint is its so rushed.
But at the same time its so slow.
It took 1 season and 4 episodes to get to fall of reach. But then reach only lasts one episode. But yet, atriox was introduced like halfway through season 1, who is a villain in halo wars 2.
It takes 2 whole seasons to finally get to the halo (in a show called halo) but keys, halsey, arbiter, are all already dead. Oh, and the flood out break happened, but not even on a halo. On onyx.
Like these are all story beats they could have been building up instead of rushing. But they focused in so much other crap.
@@anthonydaquino5425 let’s not forget Halsey is arrested in season 1 when it canonically took till Halo 4 to see Halsey was arrested for war crimes.
No pillar of autumn, no Keys, no Johnson, no Halsey, no arbiter, no Samual, no fucks to give, no worthy stakes. The flood can’t be cured, the flood can’t just *reside in someone’s DNA*, the flood were released due to stupidity in the series, not hubris like the games. The fall of Reach as you said was rushed and the entire lore is disrespected.
Red VS Blue was a better series based in Halo. And that series did its own thing.
@@Techmaster7032Official so im watching the series with my wife right. In the beginning (she stopped about halway, completely lost interest). Anyways we are on the fall of reach episode. Once i realized they are officially starting the fall of reach i paused the episode. And pretty much explained the ending of the game halo reach, and start of halo ce. Told her everyone is going to die, chief is gonna be in cryo sleep(maybe the other Spartans force him to get on the pillar of autumn and sacrifice themselves noble 6 style so the autumn can escape) cortana and keyes get on the pillar of autumn, halsey is going to survive, and keyes is going to do a blind jump to escape. A covenant fleet is going to follow led by the arbiter. Boom they land by the ring. The unsc is like “wtheck is that? Idk” but then it goes to the covenant and shows makee (maybe she dies in the fall of reach idk) and arbiter and theyr like “omg the holy artifact” and then the season end.
I told my wife all of this and told her this is probably going to last the rest of the season and its going to be sad and intense and last the next 3-4 episode.
Then keyes died, and i was like nope. Worst episode. They ruined it 😭😭😭 sure enough reach lasted 30min. And nothing that was supposed to happen happened. They had it written out for them and they fumbled it. Fall of reach (one of the best halo games) took place on one street alley, kind of a bridge, and a ship bay. 😭😭😭
@@anthonydaquino5425 I whole heartedly belive "Cobalt team" was the "Noble team" replacement. So they were dead at the relay.
Watching Paraongosky locked in the room with the flood being eaten alive was the most satisfying bit of this show. 😂
it wasnt though, cause you didnt see her dead body. thus she's returning in some form later on. it was so cheap
Did anyone else think that exchange between Miranda and the scientist was super awkward? A small gripe amidst this ocean of mediocrity, but it was just so jarring to me.
Probably will be the protogravemind like keys was
@@varunaX What's sad is this is entirely possible with this writing. 😐
Oh, she would want to die. Flood wont kill her, it will do with her what did with KEyes in games.
Man Halo was one of the few game series where I actively purchased the soundtracks. Instead of using that, they use the f****** music from Dawson's Creek.
Dawsons Creek 😂😂😂
Did this biologist go to the same school as the Prometheus crew?
Haha the review is only 47:22 and then there is like 10 minutes or something of blank screen and a scene. He really just clicked up load and ran out the door
Lol
Jesus christ you're right! And the dude still hadn't fixed that?!
When Miranda and that other scientist were in the lab, this random joy music was playing. I genuinely thought it was an ad playing in the back, paused like 3 times to figure out it was in the show lmao.
That's awesome
The moment that assistant was with her I knew she was going to be an idiot and release the Flood.
The only scene with style, I thought it was decent, I just really wanted to see the flood again.
Also the fact that a whole outbreak was happening and no alarms went off at all😂😂 but there was an alarm when Chief broke in
My biggest complaint is that all the fighting in the series is done by the freaking ELITES! They aren't called "elites" for nothing! You should have Grunt shock troops, Jackals as sharpshooters etc. Instead we only have one jackal fight (where jackals are huge-ass aliens the size of Elites, who are also oversized in the series btw), and one Brute. Elites should be controlling the course of battle from the back row.
Nothing went the way it was supposed to that is not how the story of the very 1st Halo game went no Piller of Autumn once so ever
No Sargent Johnson is some of the biggest disrespect to me. Hes just as iconic to the game as chief was imho up to halo 3.
they dont want good manly role models for black youth
"Oh I know what the ladies like".......its money sarge.........
@@Gr33kChief😢
Maybe he will arrive in season 3. A lot of characters died so some new ones will probably be introduced and hopefully Johnson will be one of them.
At least the writers can't ruin his character if he's not here
Perez wore armor longer than Master Chief in one episode lmao 🤣. " You don't know what I can do" yeah because you don't kick butt wearing armor for a whole season
This show honestly breaks my heart. I love Halo so much. And I really wanted a dope tv show to be proud of and show a lot of the story from the books that are missing in the games. While they pull elements from the books, like the coin flip and Rubble and Onyx. It’s all done just so much worse. Really sad to see and hard to like a tv show that fails to understand so much of what Halo is really about.
Desptie this season being better then season 1 I always go back to the Captain Price quote from the original Modern Warfare "Its an improvement, but its not hard to improve on Garbage"
'It's better. Not good, but better.'
when chief said we won’t leave anyone behind this time. *leaves everyone behind and goes to ring*
Thank you. Like it just boggles my mind man. It sounds like they just put dialogue and hope it makes sense. I'm still trying to understand why people like this episode so much
No he didn't...he literally rescued the team and then left when they weren't in danger.
Because of you guys I never started the season, thank you.
Everything you said is bs. The season 2 finale is a masterpiece of an episode. Seeing the flood/zombies in live action was a good surprise. The fight between master chief and the Arbiter having a 1v1 with a energy sword on the halo ring was unreal. This is a easy 10/10. GO WATCH
yeah the serie is good, but I know joe, he just dislikes everything, thats is character without it he would be boring as fuck and since he know nothing about the games or books he just throws shit randomly@@nfbk123
@@alanmireles7030😂 yea okay clearly he is a fan of the source material & the game thats y he doesn’t like it. This show is not like the game & they admitted that was the plan . So how u say he doesn’t like the show because he doesnt know the game?
@@boricuadude89 Why would someone intelligent spend 8 HOURS watching something they supposedly HATE? That makes you the complete opposite of intelligent. But then again this is Joe. Man of Steel (worst storyline of all time) Got a 10 out of 10 btw.
@@nfbk123Damn could you simp any harder 😂
Interestingly enough, if we're to criticize this series on its obvious departure of the spirit of the Halo universe, we have to point out that the combat in Halo is the gun battles, not the fist fighting. I can count on one hand the number of times MC got into a fist fight with other characters (Locke for example), not counting the melee kills you get in the games. This could have been something the show could have explored that wasn't explored in the games or books ... MC's hand-to-hand combat skills.
I think this whole show/timeline is just Kiki Wolfkill trying to hijack halo and make it her thing. Sort of like how a squatter tries to claim someone else’s home until they get kicked out.
343 Guilty Spark?
Nah fam, Halo TV show be like: 686 Innocent Flicker

Genius comment, you nailed it
Don't forget we have to make Guilty Spark a female voice actor now but remember it has no gender. Woohoo!
This review is far more exciting than the Halo TV series
I think one of the moments in the books that hit me really hard was a small simple moment, when the repair station UNSC Cradle moves in to take the first volley from the covenant at Sigma Octanus. Small moment that could have a big emotional impact that I still remember. This show doesn’t have anything similar in two seasons.
Yes...that space battle was what I yearned for in a live action...we got abandoned planets with spike mcguffins.
I still remember that part as well. one of my favorite parts and further reinforced just how desperate the situation was. They bought time with their lives and should forever be remembered
Thank God for Bit Torrent , for a free show this is acceptable. if I paid money, I would never give them money again.
Hell I'm surprised Pfizer wasn't in the last episode offering a cure 🤡 for the flood
I don't even think it is. I could have every episode completely for free on my computer within 5 minutes, with just 3-4 mouse clicks. But I still only watched 4 episodes, then I was out. It's not Halo, it's not even passable generic sci-fi imo. For me, the show couldn't hold my interest even when it cost me zero money and zero effort to watch it.
the live action trailers of halo reeach are better them this entire series
The season 2 halo TV series finale is a masterpiece of an episode. Seeing the flood/zombies in live action was a good surprise. The fight between master chief and the Arbiter having a 1v1 with a energy sword on the halo ring was unreal. This is a easy 10/10. GO WATCH IT RIGHT NOW
@@nfbk123lol you trying hard to defend this show
Those trailers were waaaaaayyy better. The odst was amazing
@@privatebh imagine being triggered by facts. A braindead sheep nothing more
Hell the few live action trailers for Infinite were better than this series.
The worst part is that some of the shots have sooooo much potential like chief looking up at halo. They just HAD to take his helmet off, and change the music, change the reason hes there, change how he got there, and everythint else. So much potential :/
Exactly. Its dumb as hell.
we already saw the old crap in the games, tv can do something new.
There are plenty of things wrong with this show, but the one moment that really got me really pissed off is the MC and Arbiter fight seen in this episode when Chief defeats him, and the Arbiter asks for a warrior's death. When you listen to how the Chief states "I know what he said", the tone is not one of respect but of disgust. It was more of an execution. Not one time in the games or books does Chief kill an enemy that remotely resembles an execution. Not even when he defeats War Chief Escharum in Halo Infinite. The Chief actually empathizes with him. To me, this is the worst example of character assassination. For me, the Chief is an asshole in this shitty timeline because of the way he treated his fellow Spartans, and now the Arbiter.
The people that thought this was ‘good’ are probably the same people who thought halo 5 was a masterpiece in writing.
Nah, most of them are 343 shills and are paid to praise the show. Installation 00 is a known 343 shill and paramount goon. Respect Joe for being honest and not being bought out for fake praise. This show sucks and any who actually like it aren’t Halo fans.
Halo 5 if it was not rushed could have been pretty good spread over several games but lead writer left and well had to have something. Halo 5 had potential to be good. Halo the TV show doesn't even seem to have had much of that even.
@@browal14idk, halo 5 imo was good. The thing i think that kills it for allot of people is that the marketing campaighn was a bit misleading and pissed people off when the game didint deliver what they thought what they would get.
However.... the campaighn adds werent entierly wrong. Yes lock fought chief in the 3rd mission. But realisticly we do persue him through the entier game. Not necisarily headhunting him like the bullet through chiefs helment add implyed. But we DID tail him the entier game. As for the trailer showing both lock and chief laying down in the pile of rubble. That was most likely implying that both partys believe what there doing is the right thing and there refusal to yeild to each outher. Lock will do what he can to complete his mission and so will chief. This the creation for the trailer.
As for the core campaighn people dont realize that the story tecnicaly revolves around cortana. Not the chief or lock. Every action taken by lock and chief is due to cortanas actions. With that being said, if they had made the whole game a litteral head hunt in halo 5 then that would push back the cortana guardian narritive. Of whitch btw was influinced by her contracting the logic plaige in halo 3 from the gravemind. Whitch quite litteraly turns ai against there creators. The same thing happend to mendicant bias.
All in all halo 5s story is good, but it suffers imo at fully explaining why cortana was doing what she did. You have to understand lore to fully grasp whats going on. Whitch is only draw back. Tho realisticly i dont think the unsc or chief would ever have any way of knowing what logic plaige is so.... yea, it kinda makes since why it wasnt explained
Commenting to let you know that I am one of those people that doesn't watch the show but love watching these reviews.
I stand with this commenter
Hey me too!
Yup ✋
Same
Ready for rings of power season 2? Joe’s review, I mean, of course!
love how Cortana is basically a conversation AI. She can't get into the covenant ship systems and explosively decompress the thing the stop makee.
😂😂😂 Stop it. Theres no room for making sense in this show.
in this show Covenant battlenet is probably like their version of facebook or some stuff
@@Lifeof728 @project-mk- ultra they showed her do it from the ship that makee was on (we have no idea how far that was) to the super secret base on Onyx. But then she never did it to any of the ships that were chasing them...
I just don’t get it. It’s like - they had an incredible, award winning, masterpiece of a story on a gold platter. And they purposely bastardize and reduce every part of it. Everything that mattered, the gravity of the plot, removed. Arbiter? A bitch pawn enforcer of a senseless human covenant spy. Brands HIMSELF a traitor to no fanfare or show, then immediately gets beaten to death after a short fight with Chief. His importance squandered. Given to Makee who they know most people hate the idea of. The Flood was meant to be a result of the Covenant’s ignorance and attitude. Here, it’s some basic accidental infection because a scientist broke basic safety rules and touched an unknown substance from a test tube and frolicked in the Onyx lab from its control or something. The Fall of Reach was way too brief and under-expressed. Lacked the depth of importance and mass destruction of a planet full of billions of people being annihilated. The military complex of humanity. Felt like a town was sacked. The Spartan IIIs are a joke here. They went way too hard on the mass sacrifice and don’t know what they want them to be. Are they trained for years since children like in the books? Some characters act like they have been, but are scared of battle for no reason. Or are they adult volunteers like Perez? Both? They purposely do stuff that are the major complaints of the series. We don’t like Kwan? They force her into the major plot by giving her mystical shaman powers. We don’t like Makee? They RAISE HER FROM THE DEAD and make her the Arbiter’s handler and replacement. We want more armor? They literally have someone take it away from the characters so they can’t use it. They seem to think the Covenant is made up 90% of Elites. Where are the grunts? We see way more of them than we do of grunts or jackals. They don’t care about feedback. It’s not redeemed in the slightest. Every point they touch, they bastardize and ruin. They took the story of Halo, abandoned it to die of starvation, buried its corpse in a shallow grave, exhumed it’s rotting remains, blended it’s contents in liquid excrement, and served it with a fresh coat of paint. It is sad and frustrating to me that this is some people’s only experience with Halo.
All great points, but let me add one more point:
We had no complaints about how Cortana looked? They went out of their way to mess up her face to the point of her face being utterly distracting every time she's on-screen.
Well spoken. They don't care, the writers producers look down on Halo seeing it as beneath their notice. Yet also a golden opertunity to get millions of fans into there work. So they'll modify Halo into something unrecognizable and abuse the brand with THEIR IDEAS.
Halo vs AngryJoe.... This was like watching an abusive relationship.
I'm a Halo diehard. I've read all the books and played most of the video games (stopped after Halo IV for obvious reasons). My favorite spartan is Kelly-087 of whom we only see outside the books in Legends, The Fall of Reach, briefly at the end of Forward Unto Dawn, and a single easter egg text file in the games. I've hated this show from the first few episodes of season 1. Anyone who claims they're a Halo diehard and they like this show are lying in some way. A true Halo diehard would be offended at how much they lobotomized the lore and characters.
We basically wanted the games story in live action and the only way that would of been done justice is in a movie but because of microsoft we never got that and now halo is dead and nobody cares
Wish we got Kelly Linda and Fred instead 🥲
@@johnshepard8556 no one wants to make a halo movie bc of codycrybabies.. sorry i mean angryjoey cry babies.... sorry mastercheekscrybabies... oops sorry i mean grown men crybabies. Regardless of the writing halo has always had the cheesy things regardless Movie, books ( i prefer the books) games, small tv/movie/ halo series. No one takes halo serious. It took literaly almost 20 years for live action series and look how badly is critiqued and you think in the future some director is going to waste their time to make a movie to please grownmen crybabies to critique it and hate, As a halo fan this sucks and i feel bad for the halo future.
@@gamesh0w4life69 The first attempt at a Halo live action movie was Forward Unto Dawn, and everyone had nothing but praise for it when it came out. I don't know what reality you're living in.
@@Jackman1st Sam would be awesome as well. The only guy who thinks the problem with bringing explosives on a stealth mission is that he didn't bring enough.

"How many times do we have to teach you old man?" - Todays screenwriters to joe.
On my own
The season 2 halo TV series finale is a masterpiece of an episode. Seeing the flood/zombies in live action was a good surprise. The fight between master chief and the Arbiter having a 1v1 with a energy sword on the halo ring was unreal. This is a easy 10/10. GO WATCH IT RIGHT NOW
So why couldn't they get Keith David to voice the Arbiter? The only thing that makes sense is that Keith doesn't want anything to do with this garbage show.
I really liked the part where john said "life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get inside", then jumped out of the window and yelld „Yippie-kai-yay, motherf*****r!“. Really puts a mirror on our society. Very brave!
So Kwan released the Flood because apparently the Flood have been in her family DNA for generations? Those visions of the Old Woman was actually the Flood communicating with her.That is her purpose?
So stupid
As if we needed any more reasons to hate Kwan, lmao... 😂😂
So my comment got censored that’s fun
Honestly, that scene was confusing AF. Either a forerunner is somehow in her head, or the flood is, but it isn't consuming her for some reason.
The real Question is does the Flood hire based off of DEI... We need a Black Trans Vegan Gravemind that falls in Love with the Master Cheek and Thel Vadam so they can have spicy time in the Basement of Delta Halo Together.
Halo wars 1 cutscenes looked better than this tv show ever did.
The writers, vfx team, and editors clearly didnt care anymore at this point. Im watching the scene where the Spartan 3s and Kai get spaced and they start flying towards the Covenant ship.
So the Spartan 3s have EVA suits with booster packs.
Kai just has her Spartan 2 suit. No thrusters or anything.
How the fuck is she manuevering in space, again?
And the Spartan 3s? Didnt they get done dirty? Arent they supposed to be chemically enhanced supersoldiers with better augmentations than the Spartan 2s? That cant be the case here since Perez became a 3 in like a week. So theyre just people in armor...
This shits dumb.
Has anyone noticed how this show barely shows space battles or closer up shits of the UNSC ships fighting Covenant ships.
I prefer to believe the Halo Reddit praising the show is just bots and not real people, but i know better...
I only watched the first 2 episodes of this season but the people who like it are the its a different universe people who think that shitty writing and dialogue is ok because it's not the actual halo universe
Halo reddit is shitting on it. What universe do you live in?
ya, reddit is astroturfed to hell the same as review aggregate sites and twitter/YT comments on trailers. It's basically part of the marketing budget for these big companies now.
@@revolverocelot1380 the reddit is praising it. Have you not seen the pinned episode discussion threads?
Likelihood is they weren't even born when Halo CE was released.
Most of the internet is children. Don't give it too much weight, they don't know any better
The Flood having the collective intelligence and information of ONI.
It's so over. No schism too, and since apparently it was pretty much the last of what humanity could muster for a fleet, it's pretty much game over for everyone ?
At this point, either the Covenant fleet or a sudden apparition of the forerunner sentinels need to glass Onyx before the Flood gets away from it. That or Master Cheeks will end up pressing the big button.
i mean when chief reaches the covenant ship and find the broken hard drive of cortana .he could have easily found a chip in between all those broken pieces that looks like an SD card and inserted that SD card into his helmet ...it is that easy to do.
What sucks with this is that every time a studio takes a beloved property and does a poor job with it, the less likely the property is to get another chance with a better studio. Like asked has said, Halo is a layup with the amount of quality low and story bits to play off of that you really have to screw up to make such a poor rendition of the property.
It's crazy. I remember hearing about Peter Jackson was really serious about doing a Halo movie in the late 2000s. Then it was gonna be Neil Blomkampt, because the hobbit movies got in the way, then there were rumors that Guillermo Del Toro was gonna do it, then Steven Spielberg got attached to produce, and FOR YEARS nothing came about and then 3 years ago Paramount greenlit this show. It was so surreal. Finally we were getting a Halo adaptation! (I know Forward Onto Dawn exists)
But it could not be any more obvious that the filmmakers involved could not give a damn about the source material and that the original idea for this show was not supposed to be Halo, rather an Expanse clone. But the suits at Paramount wanted a Halo show so they forced it into a script that had nothing to do with it and now we have this mess.
I get it- you have to change things when adapting to different mediums. That's just inevitable. What may work in a game may not work well in a movie or TV show. But if you're gonna change stuff, make sure it's for the better. I'd be fine with this story and even this universe if the characters and world building weren't so underwhelming. And I feel most Halo fans would be forgiving too. But now here we are, 2 seasons in, and it feels like we've sunk beneath Halo 5. Think about that.
Shame on you Paramount.
I think they are doing it on purpose. You cannot destroy smth with such prejudice and do it on accident
That's what I'm trying to say too. We get you need to make changes. The issue is when your changes dilute the lore and make it generic
I just want the silver timeline to get erased from history.
just don't watch it and it is lol.
I would say this is worth that rings of lesbians as its The worst thing 343 Microsoft EVER made utter steaming pile of nonsensical tripe with hardly any action worth watching
I hate how every chance they get he is removing his helmet, or suit for no reason. He is supposed to be this mysterious soldier no one ever sees.
I cant with this show. I've come to the conclusion that the Bungie games star Master Chief, the 343 games star John Halo and then this travesty of a show stars Jimmy Rings.
I haven’t watched a single episode of season 1 or 2 and never will, BB!
Same lmao
Your level of ignorance is frightening.
Someone who doesn't care to know from their own experience, seems totally unreal to me.
Hopefully you're just some dumb kid saying dumb things on the Internet.
Same 🤝🏾🍻
To be fair no real Halo fan would watch this shit. If 343 touched it, it's not halo.
Yall gotta watch it cause like me I didn’t even watch the first or 2nd season until last week because mainly of these dudes and I was bored and had nothing to do so gave it a try and for me it was entertaining not amazing but atleast entertaining enough to binge watch the whole series in 1 week yeah it has some dumb shit every once in a while like kwan ha but the dudes here they over judge everything they want the show to be perfect which is impossible just watch the show and yall can see yourselves instead of listening to these morons cause the last episode was the best episode in the whole series
Chief: “you don’t know everything”
Cortana: “Dammit why didn’t I think of downloading the I/O specs for Spartan armor?”
I mean think about it, the screenwriters think Cortana, the AI made to integrate into Spartan armor, would not know how it can integrate AI through its fist…
IDK what is worse. Halo after 343 took over from Bungie, or Paramounts Halo series 🤷♂️
And so the second season of "The Adventures of Jimmy Rings" comes to an end (for its not a Halo show and never will be).
😂💯
All the showwriters had to do is have Chief pull an SD card out of Cortana's broken module and place it in the back of his helmut, just like the games...but no, _"punch the ship's control monitor with your magic fist"_ , they say. Yeah, that'll do the trick (eye roll).
Just absolute assssss
Imagine Denis villanueve writing and directing a halo film
They had a perfect story from Bungie so stupid for them to go this way the 1st Halo is such a classic it held game of the year for somtime they didnt pay any honor to the first game and story it pisses me off
I tried to comment my disappointed in the xbox podcast when they interviewed the show runners, turns out that they are shadowbaning comments, so it shows as posted but if you look via another browser it doesn't exist.
This guy won't learn his lesson! 😂
Joe has to much faith 😅
@@MO_Diskno I thought he made cookies.
09:25 That "space magic" transfer of Cortana, as you call it, happens in basically every game, when Master Chief either touches the console or hovers hand over it to transfer her in or out.
Calling it now, the Halo will be destroyed by episode 3
Did you notice how his helmet was cracked at the end , so now even when he’s wearing the armor we can see his face , that’s our cheeks
Pablo really wants us to see his u gly mug
The reason for so many positive reviews is because those who actually care about halo have left. Only ones watching are paramount shills and reviewers
I think your right there’s no reason for all the good reviews
And normies that clearly never watched anything good.
Have you considered it might he a good show? Its a separate timeline from the game doesn’t need to the same
Damn it, I hate to say it, but you're probably 1000% right.
@@alexkogan9755 Have you considered you may be the normie? You “enjoy” one of the most played game series of all time you aren’t special
So the biologist in the beginning wasn't already infected and just touching everyone intentionally to further the contamination?
The producers must hate money, becuse they're sacrificing so much money by pissing of a legion of loyal Halo fans by not just giving us the early Master Chief games and Spartan 2 books in fucking live action format!
Kai floating in space. Can’t wait for her to use the force to pull herself back to safety lol
😂
I remember reading the books and Captain Keyes being the most badass ship captain of all time, and I’m reminded how little they capitalized on the aspects of halo the books could have thrived with in a tv setting. I’m sad that this is where my favorite series is
Even in halo 1 keys was a badass. Dude was mentally holding out against a grave mind to keep info from the flood. Mans went out like a hero holding his own. RIP
Hell the Keyes loop that he figured out the math on his own first before having the ai double check it. That maneuver was insane
@AngryJoeShow what is going on with the last quarter of the video? Looks like Strange New Worlds clip, random blackness, no sound, and a random score for episode 2
Love your work guys, I just wish I had subscribed earlier! Btw where did you get your Master Chief Helmet from? Cheers!
My dad and I bonded over Halo as I was growing up. Lost my mom six moths ago. I activly tell my dad to stop watching this show because its actively hurting the franchise as a whole. Remember Reach.

I'm sorry for your loss. Were it so easy.
Couldn't agree more. It's a mess. Didn't even realise the flood release thing. I was properly confused.
Like infection by touch 😑. Why not just use rats as a test subject, and it breaks out, etc. Starts biting people or spawning shit.
The battle is a joke, the UNSC jump in and don't even evaluate the battlefield and instantly fly under the super carrier 🤷♂️
Everyone survives obvious deaths, kai survives yet again another ship crash. Cheeks survives a ship crash and somehow flung 300 metres away. I guess cortana took control and dragged his ass out the ship.
His gun breaks, but somehow his trust magnum and a random energy sword are in working order.
Just utter drab
shh..shhhhhhh you are thinking too much!
@project-mk-ultra I know, evidently, these idiots don't care enough to understand the lore.
8 episodes is not enough for the vast majority of series. Fuck this new BS standard that the streaming giants have done. 8 episodes is not enough time to tell a good and thorough story. Unless you do it like the Sherlock series. Which was over an hour each episode
… he Punches the computer console, to absorb Cortana through his fist?…
Jesus Christ. That’s…
The Halo reddit is filled with corporate bots. It's strictly a marketing tool. There are zero real human beings.

At the age of 62 years old I love Halo, the books and the games I enjoyed but this was a very lack lustre series and episode . 😭😭😭😭
Its so sad whats becime of this franchise in both the games and live action from what it once was during bungie's time as halo 3 was a cultural event and they should of made that planned neil blomkamp and peter jackson halo movie at that time but they couldn't because of microsofts greed which has resulted in 343 industries killing the halo franchise
Damn, you must have played Halo in your 40s.
At the end of the day, if you know nothing about Halo, I think this is a half-decent sci fi show. Yes, half of it is full of pointless soap opera, yes there's some characters like Soren's family that are pointless, yes Kwan is annoying and out of place, but there's still entertaining elements in my opinion. I was still entertained by it. And if not, at least I was laughing at the ridiculousness of some bits. And I used to love Halo lore back in the Halo 2-3 days. But I moved on to better things in the 15+ years since. By how outraged some of the anti-fans of this show are, I would recommend they move on too. Halo lore has jumped the shark a long time ago anyway.
4:51 holy shit this looks bad. Remember in the final mission of Halo Wars, that cutscene with Seargant Forge versus the Arbiter? From 2009? How does a game cutscene from 16 years ago look better than a major release today?
I've got no problem with TV series changing things from the source material cos it's a different medium, things that work in games don't necessarily work in a series format.
I don't even have a problem with simplifying certain things to make the story more accessible. Not everything has to be incredibly deep lore if you can find something more straightforward that a wider audience will just understand.
But if you're going to change *this much*, to arbitrarily write in completely unnecessary tangents and bizarre tonal shifts (flood intro being horror in the games to... whatever that was) why use the Halo licence?! Just create something original at that point.
Any game can be change to tv format, it just how they do it , last of us proved it and added story to the side characters, it just comes down to people actually caring and being creative
Everything you said is bs. The season 2 finale is a masterpiece of an episode. Seeing the flood/zombies in live action was a good surprise. The fight between master chief and the Arbiter having a 1v1 with a energy sword on the halo ring was unreal. This is a easy 10/10. GO WATCH

@@aono335 imagine being triggered by facts. A braindead sheep nothing more
I think the choice of having the flood released on onyx instead of halo is because they probably want the gravemind to be created, but they don’t want us to visit the ring from halo 2.
I think you’re right. The first thing I thought was that parangowski was going to be the gravemind. I still feel like the ring will have the flood on it as well. These other idiots just ran into it by accident on Onyx To set up parangowski as the big bad for future seasons .
I agree with the three of you, this was the best episode out of the other drivel they’ve made and it was littered with cool things. Like a pile of shit decorated in gold. I hate how they’re mashing and condensing bits of the lore into another divisive half baked halo product.
Why they chose to make an 8 episode season when all of the budget goes on 1 or 2 episodes.
Such a massive missed opportunity.
@@Jimmy074x4one person doesnt become a gravemind
@@fullmeddljacket8486 Yeah, but they have someone as its "core". Keyes was the "core" for the one on Alpha Halo. They're probably just swapping him for Parangoski.

love how the actor and writers keep taking helmet off, yet pedro pascal was cool having helmet on a TON for mando
The writers treatment of this Halo reminds me of how I felt when my idiot cousins came to visit and ruined all my Lego when I was a kid - mixing up pieces from different sets, putting cowboy Lego with my Ninja legos etc, ruining the epic lore I built into my little set pieces which I had so carefully constructed.
😢 that sounds awful man.
Pouring one out for what could have been
I mean the only thing i can defend is theres some times in the game where chief hoovers his hand over a console or terminal and Cortana does digitize back into him 😂 but thats seems to be the only lore accurate thing they got
I was hoping it was going to be closer to the game storyline with a bit of Starship troopers aesthetics and not unveiling Chiefs head unless it was David Goggins!
