Wanna know what’s a terrible idea? Making the first movie about Reach therby not making enough time to chronologicaly end the story like the games did. If you want to show the fall of Reach so bad, fine, make a prequel about it just like the novel did(which makes it even better because it’s based off a book). Just don’t screw it up so bad that you have to end the last movie before the ending of Halo 3.

Fall of Reach is the name of a Halo book.
I personally think that the films studios are really stupid for refusing to finance a Halo film. It makes no sense, Halo 3 sold over $300 millions worth. The film (with the script above) would cost, what? £75 Million? It would easily get the money back and the film studios would make LOADS. Also why don’t Microsoft finance it? they’ve got enough money and if they financed it they’d get all the profit.

I saw something similar on kotaku on April fools day, only they basically said “this is what the Halo movie will be (April Fools!),” so I think it is definitely true there is a spec script based on Fall of Reach (hence “this is not an April fool’s”) but the chances Bungie/Weta have any intent to use it are slim.
