OXM: We Drove The Warthog

OXM writes:

"I don't have a driver's liscense. That was my first thought when OXM suggested shipping me off to New Zealand to get behind the wheel of a full-size working replica of Halo's Warthog, built by Peter Jackson's Weta Workshop. It's a really big four-wheel-drive monster with a whopping machine gun on top. And there's only one of them roaring around on the face of the planet. 'I don't have a license,' I thought. 'I can't drive an automatic, let alone a manual. This is all going to end badly. Oh god.'"

1.1 - Would you actually say that sentence out loud?
Would you? Would you really? If you said it to me I would actually want to hit you in the eyes.

It is a stupid, childish way to speak/write. I can only imagine you are ten or younger.

Of course he wouldn't say that out loud, it'd be like saying lol or lmao out loud. Why would you ask such a dumb question?

1.3 - Why would you even write LMAO or 'full of win' (unless in jest/irony)?
Unless you were a child. Or an adult who tragically sufferered from a serious mental deficiency that made you act and speak and write like a child?

Why not attempt to write and speak in such a way as to communicate what you want to write or say to others? Instead of making up embarrassing playground talk with your internet friends?

I'm genuinely intrigued as to why grown adults would want to do this? I actually imagine (hope) you are both 12 or 13 tops. If not, then... maybe try reading some books?

1.4 - um...
Yes, I would say that out loud.

I've never met a person that DIDN'T like Peter Jackson.

I'm in college and almost everyone here and every college I've been to have said the phrase "full of win" out loud.

You're just trying to get me back for the other day. It's ohkay. Keep trying though. You'll get there.

1.8 - That should actually read...
Someone's Mommy. You see, the apostrophe indicates the possessive.

As in, for example, someone's inability to express themselves clearly. Someone's inability to socialise with others. Someone's inability to stop masturbating over their own misguided sense of superiority over others because they can talk baby leet speak.

And so on. U utter tw8t.

im impressed with the warthog. If the film is actually happening, it looks like its going to be a great film.

Peter Jackson is a great director. Im not sure how will he fare with science fiction film.

7 - This is such a poorly written joke of a feature for a so-called 'Official Magazine'
"And that, in turn, was pretty quickly followed by a grasping of my hand over my mouth, some impressively loud swearing, and the hugging of a cat."

I just don't know where to begin with this.

If I'd read that on a blog that 1-3 people read it would make me angry. The fact that the US OXM employs this couch-sucker to write for them AND THEN PAYS HIM. #

It actually beggars belief.

haha.
That's awesome.
I've been keeping track of this movie since late 06,
and I swear people, it won't flop.

Too many good people with good track records.

Jackson, if anybody knows how to make a movie like this, then would have break sessions between scenes of lord of the rings where the actors would play halo 2 against eachother, jackson included.

You guys should be grateful Uwe Boll is working on it.
in fact, grab a rug, slap your hands together in a vertical position, and pray to every spiritual being tonight, in thanks for what could have been a sad, sad time for gamers, that instead actually might work out in the end.

9.1 - Does anybody on here actually read stuff??
Peter Jackson is NOT making the Halo movie. Has never EVEN BEEN working on a Halo movie.

Last section of this abysmally written excuse for a feature: "Of course, unless the movie ever becomes an actuality, the replica is unlikely to be used for much more than a showpiece."

Christ alive. Can we all try to pay more attention please?

Full of f&cking win!... ffs.

a recent report stating that he in interested in the project.
But it's stuck in pre production, and they've been picky about story and overall design.

which is a good thing.
