Triple-Academy Award winners Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh (”The Lord of the Rings” trilogy) will serve as the executive producers of “Halo”, the upcoming feature film based on Microsoft’s phenomenally popular video game reports Rope of Silicon.
I just heard this news, and can I just say? I’m nearly spastic with joy over it.
Can you even imagine?
?As a gaming fan, I?m excited to bring HALO’s premise, action and settings to the screen with all the specificity and reality today?s technology can provide,? said Jackson. ?Fran and I are intrigued by the unique challenges this project offers, and we?re delighted to be working again with our friends at Universal, and with our new ones at Fox and Microsoft. I?m a huge fan of the game and look forward to helping it come alive on the cinema screen.?
(I do realize that largely everyone who reads this blog cares little or nothing about Halo, either in movie or game form. Just me geeking the heck out over here.)

This is me. I'm a thirtysomething stay at home mom to three kids. For years I was a stay at home mom to one kid and trying very hard to have more. It took a LONG time (ie: 6 1/2 years), but finally Liam arrived and charmed us with his blue eyes and ginormous, round head. Then we got a shock: I was pregnant again and this time it was a GIRL. Our hearts and home are full at last and now that we're done having babies, we get to relax (snort) and watch them grow (not too fast now, you hear?). Thanks for coming by, feel free to dip into my archives, read my About and History pages (just don't do Jackson's Story without tissues!) and make yourself at home.
