Perez (actress is 5'6") is now in Spartan training, and following the "strong female character" trope so beloved of current day Hollywood, she's questioning and disobeying orders during a training combat mission.
After Kai raises serious issues of competence with all the trainee "Spartans" after the disastrous end to that training mission, Perez takes it upon herself to confront Kai and ask why she is being so hard on her in particular (she isn't, she's being hard on everyone), and then Perez asks Kai: "Is it 'cause I was on Reach and you weren't?".
Just WOW.
All this happens in the first 5 minutes of the episode, and it doesn't get any better.
Who is writing this? It has the same dismissive attitude to military discipline as Kurtzman Trek.
I do have to genuinely ask: is Sweet Baby Inc., a consultant on this show?
It's the only way to describe the decisions and directions the show has taken.
After walking around naked for much of season one and getting it on with Makee, "Master Cheeks" has now completely lost his armor!
How has it come to this? How can they keep putting up that title screen with "Halo" written across it when this series has so very little DNA to connect it to the games? Saying that this story is part of the "Silver Timeline" does not negate that.
In Star Wars, Disney bought a boy-brand that both boys and girls watched and enjoyed for $5bn, and turned it into a girl-brand that nobody watches, or cares about anymore.
Paramount is doing the same to Halo.
We can only hope that the rumours of Warner Brothers buying Star Trek from Paramount are true, so that Kurtzman Trek can be exorcised from the Star Trek canon.
Let's start a petition to get Warner Brothers to buy Halo!!! Who's with me?!!! (jogs away into the near-distanch shouting "Come On!". No-one follows...)
