The Verge watched Halo Nightfall and hates it. I don't why anyone cares if Ridley Scott's name is attached, he hasn't done anything good in a long time. Secondly, he was just a producer, not the director. It's like Matt Groeing on The Simpsons. All Matt does now is go to lunch with poorer animators and let's them do the opening sequence for the show.
*Interstellar is widely seen as too long and boring, as predicted.
