I like those conversations about how Spartans came to be and all, but jesus even the ones that do have armor take of their helmet in the middle of battlefield, because dialogue coming up. Hollywood needs to get over it's childish need of showing actor's faces even when the plot doesn't demand it, if mandalorian can do it, so can you.
Dredd was awesome, and Karl Urban didn't show his face for a single frame.
Props to him. But at least that helmet is more like a cowl so we could still see him scowl
That was one issue I had with Dune (part 2 in particular) their faces should be mostly covered when out in the desert, but they just had to show their faces at all times. Still, it's a great movie but I don't get why that has to be done.
Halo in particular has Red vs Blue, a fan series filmed in the fucking game, as proof that the barest effort can convey who's talking and how they feel.
All the Spartans should've been the tallest stage actors they could find. Big ol' dudes who can do enough with body language that the cheap seats know what's going on... and then get in the recording booth and project like they're used to talking through an inch of armor. Even in the games, the story is mostly told by normal-sized people dwarfed by these walking tanks.
