In the ongoing saga of Halo 3 fan-boy geekdom I’d like to present a couple of videos that pay homage to the Master Chief.

First up, we have The Halo 3 Hoedown by SarcasticGamer.com.

Next is Halo Nights by Team Tiger Awesome. This one strikes a chord in my old heart-strings, since my friend Rocky and I are known to bust out an NSYNC style Bye Bye Bye complete with quacky hand wave just for shiz-n-giggles.

And if that isn’t enough Halo fun, I highly recommend checking out the John 117 memorial over at the official Halo 3 website. Take the 360° tour of the battle for New Mombasa complete with first person accounts, and profiles of both UNSC and Covenant soldiers.

In other news, Ivy and I checked out Jodi Foster’s new movie The Brave One. I put up some resistance because I figured that it was just going to be some award show fodder like most Jodi Foster movies. In the end, I was really glad that we went. The Brave One is a top notch flick. Basically, Jodi Foster’s character Erica and her fiance David played by Lost star Naveen Andrews are brutally attacked and David is murdered. Erica comes to terms with being a victim by buying a gun and becoming a vigilante, eventually hunting down the ones who attacked her. It’s a great story of love, loss, revenge and redemption. Plus, she has a cute puppy too. It really makes you think about what you would do if someone hurt one of your own. Definitely worth checking out.
