'Doom' Discussion Thread

I totally agree myth.

IF I wanted to watch a movie, I would go see a movie, If I wanted to play a video game, I WOULD PLAY A ****IN VIDEOGAME!

why have they changed the story??

It was transporter tech they were working on... No some gene experiment... Does rock get a soul cube?

I think DOOM will be a great movie with huge DVD sales. All the extras and goodies.

The more video game / movies, the better. I want TUROK the movie to be made by DREAMWORKS! Yeah!!

i liked the way they showed a first person view in the trailers... but at the same time it kinda looked corny... I'm not sure... I can see why they put in the squad (Cannon Fodder) I bet you the only one of those men alive at the end is the rock... give him 5mins and he will have the BFG...

I bet Urban will live and the Rock will die.

nar... Rock will get the soul cube... and "rock bottom" the hell deamons onto it...

I saw the trailer the other night on the big screen....

...it's not fun to watch other people play video games.

Not fun at all.

I don't know if he knows or not, but I'm glad I saw it before it gets deleted.

Sorry.

I think I'm definitely going to have to see this.

I'm not surprised that the story was changed, that ALWAYS happens. I just want to see how the monsters look on-screen...especially the Hell Knights. Too bad from the sounds of it good old Cyberdemon won't be making an appearance....

I need to play Doom again I think 😄

And I love the bit in the radio ad where the Rock says "We're going to need a bigger gun", then you hear the BFG and he goes "Holy shi...."

Everytime I see the commercials on TV, I can't help but laugh that they have a monster in a wheel chair or something. 😆

Oh yer... I remember that now! he was that tank guy....

"The Rock was offered the lead role of John Grimm, but chose the role of Sarge because he thought it was more interesting"

Is the quote I found.... Whos playing John Grimm??

Is it true that the movie will feature alot of first-person shots?Because that would be annoying.

Guess you guys are "uneducated" about Doom? Eh?

Well, I wish I still had the link, but there was an interview with someone from ID Software, and he talked about how the movie is Rated R because the gore would frighten small children?
He said the movie shows a marine walking on grated flooring, and suddenly hes pulled down through it like spaghetti, and he said thats light compared to everything else.

The Rock ISNT the main Marine, Karl Urban is, and the BFG is "the biggest gun in movie history" because it takes up like, 4 feet.

What your seeing in that picture is a Baron of Hell pulling the marine from the pipe, there are no Hell Knights, which would explain the size difference, Baron of Hell is as close as this movie comes to a Hell Knight.

Theres about a 4 minute scene of First Person in the movie towards the end, so no, not much of the movie is first person.

And thats it for now. Guys, lets try not to be TO critical of the movie before we even see it, try to look upon it as, they actually thought about the fans, and made a movie.

Later

4 minutes!Oh god.

That's a Baron of Hell? Doesn't much look like one....

Well, the interview said there are no Hell Knights in the movie, the closest it will come is a Baron of Hell.

So I dont know what that is if you dont think it looks like a Baron, and is too small to be a hell knight.

It says on the Official Site that there will be Demons, Imps, Barons, and Hell Knights.

Only thing that that thing even somewhat resembles is an Imp, but they'd throw fireballs until they're up close and then attack with their claws....so I'm not sure what it is.

I remember Barons being larger, anyway....
