Halo Legends Anime Pew Pew Pew
The Halo Legends anime compilation is due out on February 8th, and a new clip has been released. This time is the CG-made “The Package” from Shinji Aramaki, who did the CG-made Appleseed movies with were dumb fun when they showed off the action scenes, and interminably boring when they weren’t. Seeing as this trailer includes nothing but Spartan killing Brutes and Grunts, often in slow-motion, as they run down the world’s longest, straightest space hallway, I’m going to guess that “The Package” is going to be dumb fun as well. And, during the parts that don’t involve shooting, interminably boring as well. Progress! Thanks to Tony C. for the tip.
