Title: Halo 3 ODST
Post by: Eric on August 18, 2009, 09:25:14 PM
New addition to the Halo series.  You actually play a rookie instead of Master Chief.

Bonus points for identifying the first male voice just a few seconds in.  Sorry, they points are as worthless as on Whose Line is it Anyway ...

Pretty funny that his love of playing Halo2 would get him a gig in Halo3 and now H3: ODST.

Alan Tudyk and AB were also in Halo3.  It looks like they may be in ODST (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1446689/fullcredits#cast) as well.

Skip ahead to 6:30 to see a mention of Firefly and Fillion doing a recording. He's there with Tricia Helfer from BSG.

They then show the two characters together, and I'll be darned if the soldier doesn't look like Fillion himself.

  Tricia Helfer is everywhere anymore. I was going to watch the last of BSG on my DVD's
but decided to watch the second season of Burn Notice instead and there she was again.

Nathan's been using "BAM! said the lady" a lot in his Tweets, now I get the reference.

I can't remember the ep. but he said it in Castle last season too.

Nathan Fillion interview on how his love of Halo and how he got the gig.  Some talk about Castle, too:

It seems that most people don't play with voice chat any more, and for good reason.  $!$%$ kids are %#$!$@ obnioxious these ^$#@!% days.  And get off my $%!$% lawn!

Seriously, it's bad.  If you don't have a teen cursing all the time, it's a ten year old just wanting to talk to anyone.

In one multiplayer mode, if you're playing AB's character he'll occasionally make some oneliners.  I've heard him reference Full Metal Jacket and a line about his gun "Vera".  Supposedly he also will say, "Gorram."  I have yet to hear it though.

I'm not sure if Fillion, Tudyk or Helfer's characters make any similar pop references.
It's strange to see Fillion look like Fillion, and Helfer look generally like Helfer and AB looking like this, though:
