@@raja_limayt4973Yeah, but the music beats didn't really work well with the visuals. It sounded like it was stopping in odd places, and the pace was too slow. Not saying it's not a great piece of music on it's own, I love the Halo soundtrack, but for the shows intro I feel like this worked better.
Agreed this intros' soundtrack was way better and I'm an old Halo fan since 2001. I don't mind Season 2's music/intro changes but this music made you feel like it was saying - Here's Master Chief... Hero and defender of Earth, Humanity's last hope! Then the HALO logo kicks in at the end and boom, there you have it. So epic!
He kept the armor on in combat. Helmet too. He doesn't wear armor on base, and even in the games he clearly takes the helmet off during downtime, Halo 2 proved it. Why are people acting that he should be glued into his armor?
@@angusmitchell4026other than all of the scenes with Kwan Ha, I’ve actually really liked most of the rest of it. (Oh I suppose another Cortana is kinda weird too) But I find Halsey’s replacement to be extremely hate-able, and extremely engaging as a function of that. Really liked the training motifs in E2 and the story line developing around Riz dealing with the fallout from what Halsey did to her
@@jakebreedlove9619yeah I do think season 2 is off to both a strong and rocky start. Also Chief not having his helmet on in season 2 doesn’t bother me as much as season 1. Maybe it’s the shirt he wears where we see the scars from the augmentations, making him seem like he’s not everyone else. 🤔
@@CraigDaBrute838I donno who the director/showrunner is that needs to know this but…. Kwan Ha is a character that needs to go. Bonus if we get to see her killed off. TERRIBLE character with the acting skills to match 🤮
@@crypticbaitThe new music (at least for the first ep in season two) was literally just a copy/paste. Great for placating the fans who want this to be a clone of the game, but didn't match that well with the intro's visuals. This flows better with what you're seeing.
@@crypticbaitIt's a nice fulfillment, I just really liked the cadence on season one's. A nice opening using the original theme, then a really cool arrangement that compliments the on screen action. Just because it contains original work doesn't make it bad. Halo 2 and 3's soundtrack evolved, so did Mass Effect, Dragon Age, and just about every other game series that runs longer than 1 entry. The tv show is no different.
Never played a halo game, i grew up with playstation...however that being said, the halo music goes soooo hard and this theme is no exception. liking the show a lot despite the negative reviews
Same here. I remember playing Halo once with my neighbour when it first released and I remember more about that game than most. Especially using that purple gun 🔫
I love the original Halo soundtrack (not just because of the nostalgia) but this one felt like it fit the show and the visuals of the opening a lot better than the Season 2 opening.
Agreed but it's because people were annoyed there wasn't enough of the Halo track in it so they changed it when actually this theme, while original and not very Halo-esque was amazing
A lot of people called this soundtrack generic, and while it is outside of the theme and it's not as good as the OST for the show now, this legitimately sounded really good.
I was actually just about to say that. I know some people are automatically going to think season 2 is better, just because because it uses more of the original theme, but I feel like this flows better with what you're seeing on screen. Plus, it actually sounds pretty epic in it's own right.
Right! This one got me hyped, the new one is just the same halo theme we've been hearing for decades and the visuals are just really uninspiring. They played it safe to appease the fanboys and I think it was the wrong move.
Fans sure love to flip flop like everything in general. People did not like this intro at all saying it’s not halo and when we finally get a halo authentic intro people say old is better. Lmao, fandoms never make up their minds
@@97legomaniac Well, 'people' might have said so, but personally I always loved the first season intro. I thought it sounded awesome; had a nice callback to the original with the opening, but then moves into a more energetic sound. Using the pure original theme doesn't sound as good, in my opinion, like the timing is off.

Game of Thrones! I want a Game of Thronsey sound!” Composer: “I mean… I can do that, I guess… but I already started the-“ Exec: “Eh, just add something that sounds like Game of Thrones after whatever you already got, who cares? This show’ll be a slam dunk anyway. I heard Halo Eternal is gonna be huge.” Composer: “You mean Halo Infinite?” Exec: “That’s what I said.” Composer: *sighs*
This made my day. Thanks a lot! I like to imagine that the executive has light hair, a pencil-neck build, and glasses. He also looks and acts like he never left the frat house.
No puedo dejar de volver a escuchar esta intro. Es preciosa, enérgica, esperanzadora. No miento al decir que cada vez que la oigo de principio a fin se me eriza todo!
It's a shame that Paramount+ is not available in my country... I wanted to buy access to watch this TV Series.. Instead I had to watch this on some website in 1080p but I bet it's in 4K at Paramount+. I just wanted to pay... :C
Yeah this intro was wild, stupid nek beard incels had to go and cry for literally no reason. And I myself was a giga halo mfer, went to the midnight launch of H3 and reach, watched all the Red vs Blue series, every single machinima, spent years on xbox live, ranked and social playlists, customs games, custom forge maps, fat kid, rat race, griffball, everything. I am what you would call a halo fan. Is the TV series perfect? no, it has its flaws, but, and I understand why the show was adapted and tweaked for a TV audience, I also find the changes in the story to be compelling in ways that keep me wondering what is actually going to happen next, I find this to be a far better experience than it would have been, if they just replayed every single scene beat by beat to the story of the games, this feels like something new, something I haven't seen before, something I can be surprised with, something that is fresh. Do I prefer the cortana-chief dynamic in the games, yes, but If I wanted to see the old story I can just go watch the games, we still haven't gotten to the story line of H1 H2 and H3 but if people keep shitting on it, we never will.
I'm gonna be honest, the only thing I did like about the HALO series was the intro. It was the only thing about it that truly felt like HALO and listening to it for the first time it put me to tears. They actually based it off the original soundtrack (but they still bent it allot) But the rest was just... an embarrassment to the HALO gaming series😢😢
I don’t care if people thinks this series is garbage. I never played the games but it was awesome watching this series! I hope there’ll be a series 2…….🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻😎😎😎😎 Update: Series 2 coming February 2024!!!!!

Honestly, it feels generic to me. I can cut it some slack since they didn't have the rights to the original works, but for a Halo theme it fell way short and doesn't capture that Halo feel. This theme sounds like it'd be more at home with The Expanse. A lackluster theme for a subpar reimagination of the Halo franchise.
This is that one intro that I never skip
I love the intro. I want to join Master Chief to fight against the Covenant.
Yeah, me too.🫡
The most beautiful thing I ever heard gave me goosebumps
Feels like a song for military when they ride onto battle
Listen to Man of Steel - An Ideal of Hope
Ngl I literally tear up every time I watch or listen to this intro. It might be the most heroic theme I've ever heard. It's perfect.
MAN I MISS THIS NOSTALGIC INTRO🥲
Sooo beautiful. Can't get enough of how good this show is. I hope they keep making more seasons!
This intro is so much better than the Season 2 intro
No 😂
I agree 💯👍🏻
Season 2 intro is a massive nostalgia for older halo fans.

Just epic, i need this song! The female vocals of the 'monks' gives me goosebumps every time.
It is Cortana humming.
It always makes me feel like I want to go on the craziest adventure somewhere, but one that will not be for the faint of heart.
Love this intro
the CGI is good the music no
@@aminechakar4071I love the music. Doesn't have to be original halo music to be good.
Just brilliant. Perfectly aligns with the plot of series. Should not have been changed in season 2. 😮
This is why i love halo

He kept the armor on in combat. Helmet too. He doesn't wear armor on base, and even in the games he clearly takes the helmet off during downtime, Halo 2 proved it. Why are people acting that he should be glued into his armor?
Intro was the best thing that came from the halo show in my opinion.

I missed this in Season 2. 😢.
Season 2 had the better intro
A lot of people called this soundtrack generic, and while it is outside of the theme and it's not as good as the OST for the show now, this legitimately sounded really good.
Halo tv series both s1 and s2 were pretty good and i look forward to more seasons . Halo is just amazing both game and series
Cant believe they went away from this for season 2
Fit perfect to Halo Infinite of Master Chier strike back

Why’d they mess it up in season 2
Halo 2 intro would of been stone cold for an intro
Just epic
I like this one better than season 2 intro. S2 intro was mehh
It reminded me too much of the soundtrack to the Spiderman movies from Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire
The best thing about the series
This intro is way better than the one for season 2.
No lol, this one is decent but it feels anticlimactic, with Halo just randomly popping on the screen 😂😂
no

@@Clift0n it feels like the rest of the show, its pretending to be halo XDD
