DOOM: THE MOVIE - Are you going to see it?

  • I bet this mutating zombie virus obsession is just the real life Umbrella Corps' attempt to get everyone comfortable with the super virus idea so they can successfully patent it without protest.

    I hope we can move on to the next cliche and drive it into the ground. Any ideas? I vote for killer robots!

    WTF are you serious? How? If they did, it would just be another After-Resident-Evil zombie flick. image


    Yeah, my friend compared it to the HL2 plot...  The only thing that movie had going for it (to me anyways) was to actually see the portal to hell, and to watch the Rock whoop some demon ass...  But no, it is Hollywood and cliches sell... 


      Dude say it isnt true!! I cant believe they turned it into another Virus stricken zombie Resident Evil knockoff. This is Doom! It's supposed to be about the Gates of Hell opening up. Awwww Man I hate Hollywood! Supposedly the guys from Id claim that they had input into the making of the movie. Judging by this news flash this isnt the case.

       It's really sad that the guys from Id were bought out like that. It's sacriligeous to alter the story of Doom. My faith in mankind has been compromised. image



    I am afraid so Dark...  I lost my faith in humanity after I saw Blade III, the first two kicked ass, then the 3rd one was a shameless plug for the ipod and nothing else...  Movies are continually getting worse and worse... 



    BLADE III was bad becuase they put in a young, inexperienced directer and they locked Snipes out the editing room. Snipes pretty much had his own moves and good ideas that made the first two to be kick ass.

    HA HA HA. I just saw the interview of The Rock on The Daily Show. It was pretty funny.

    Well I found some of Yahoo's Ratings

    I think it's ok. If you like the game, why not? But I will give you my rating tomorrow.

    Either that, or it will be 'The Fragging Game', where the Master Chief struggles to find his sexual identity amidst modern times, and finds himself falling in love with The Flood...

    But remember, you can't let critics decide for you (media control?). If you like doom, you might as well see it sometime. Well, I'm getting a free ticket so . . . . OHHH YEAH!

    This just in, Doom movie gets a half-star out of 5 from MSN.

    Article Here

    I think it's the objective of your past self to make you cringe.

    I won't intentionally see it. Usually game movies don't live up to the games. I see this one as being worse. Mainly cause the "rock" plays lead role. Don't like the "rock" and the movies he plays lead in. They just....suck. The movie doesn't seem like it's going to be consistent with the doom storyline.

    The orginal story was that they were experimenting with teleport technology, they ended up opening a portal to another demension. It had nothing to do with demons, but that was the orginal Doom.

    Yup, that's like the only thing I remember from the first Doom.

      I agree with part of your statement. The story takes place on Mars where the UAC is working on a new teleportation technology. In the process they do open a portal to another dimension and that dimension is hell. I'm not sure if the actual word "Hell" is used in the story but when you take into account all the Satanic imagery and Pentagrams it's safe to say that this is Hell.

      And the story had alot to do with demons as thats what they were called. Some of the mobs in the game were called Cyber-demon, Caco-demon, Hell Knight, and the Barons of Hell. Some had horns and Goat Hoofs just like the ones depicted in folklore.

      So it goes without saying that Doom was originally about a portal to Hell opening up.

    I dont' knwo if I want to watch it.. the rock kinda freaked me out on The Daily Show, he wasn't all that impressive personality wise. Imma go watch it when it comes out of dvd or tv.

    Professor Hubert Farnsworth - That question is less stupid but, you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    Doom opened in theaters here in Cebu already. Its not bad. On par with Resident Evil. The Rock is really shining in this one.

    I think the big thing is that video games are beating movies in revenues now. Since 2002 I think. So now movie makers are trying to bank on that. Not a bad idea to do this. Just dont Uwe Boll do it. That man has no business behind a camera. Maybe behind a mop cleaning up after but not a camera.

    The one movie I wish they would make is Half-life. But with all the FPS movies out there, it would probably be just more of the same. And who could you get to play Gordon? Really the only one who could do it would be Micheal Keaton just because of when he did Batman and everyone asked "Are you kidding? Micheal Keaton?" then after they saw it "Micheal Keaton is the best Batman ever!" heh

      I agree. Half-life would make an excellent movie in that it was story driven. You know Michael Keaton would probaly make an excellent Gordon. Gordon would have to be played by someone thats an average Joe. Not some super tough guy like the Rock but not quite a push over either because Gordon does a decent job kicking butt.
