In other video game to movie news, the feature film adaptation of Microsoft?s Xbox juggernaut Halo appears to have come to a screeching halt with director Neill Blomkamp telling Creativity Online the film is ?entirely dead?.

Here?s what he to say about the current state of the project:

The film is entirely dead. In the configuration it was in. Whatever happens with that movie, assuming that movie gets made, will be a totally different configuration. It?s not so much me as the entire vessel sank. Basically, it was a combination of; there were two studios involved that weren?t getting along in the process of making it, Universal and Fox. That kind of stuff happens, it?s a fragile industry. So the film collapsed at the end of last year, and it?s been dead, ever since then. I?ll be curious to see what happens.
