I made that statement based on how much you actually see, which is next to nothing. I still hold a small amount of hope for there being cool stuff in the movie that's not in the trailer. When I snap out of my dream and think of it again though, most often trailers show all the cool bits from the movie and the rest of the movie is boring crap. If that is the case with Doom as well then it'll be an utterly boring movie.

What I fins most worrying is the fact that id are fully backing this complete turd.

If I were them i'd be distancing myself from it as far as possible.

That fact is the only real glimmer of hope I have left for this movie. If the movie would be shit, then id wouldn't be backing it would they?

And I think the trailer is shit because it doesn't show anything and doesn't give a good idea about what we should expect from this movie. It doesn't build a feeling of tension and terror, which I do expect from this movie.
It doesn't show a big firefight or people being ripped to shreds, which I would expect from the Doom franchise.
It only shows people running around screaming, nothing more. That's not really a good way to sell your movie.

The scream at the end of the trailer is a sound I recognize from Starcraft or Warcraft (I think Starcraft), when you click on one of the buildings, can't exactly place it though...

An aside -- I saw an animated flick a couple weeks ago. It was the Riddick story, but the events took place between Picth Black and Riddick. I was blown away - the animation was awesome, and the scenes and action were fun as hell to watch. It was done by the artist who drew the Aeon Flux cartoons for Liquid Television years ago. If you like the movies, you should definitely check it out.

I loved Pitch Black. Riddick was cool, but not as good. You know the name of that animation story you saw? That guy also directed Matriculated in the Animatrix BTW =)

The animation is called "dark Fury". Still have yet to watch it, its dropped to £5 so i may buy it now.

As For the problem with the movie, its just that the enemies sem to different. They are all slimey and shit, have skin dropping off them. The hell knight looked like he just got out the bath, and had zero scale relating to the game hellknight. He looked about 5 foot tall, not a 8/9 foot monster with huge upper body.

I.E. Its obvious they ARE guys in suits

For once, I DO think they should of gone with CGI. It would of been more true to the game.

It's $ related :/

Edit: I found the Dark Fury show on IMDb btw.. Gonna have to get hold of that.

That's disappointing too, after seeing the animated flick. Maybe I'll rent it anyway just to appease my curiosity.

Anybody notice that there was water in the movie, but not in the game...?

Shame. Water would of rocked in the game. Nice reflective water with zombies rising from it and all sorts...

EDIT: Love the way we see all the people die in this trailer... Wow, lots to happen thats fresh in the film now. SPOILER FUCKING WARNING.

Ahh... I see now...

Read the story.

They are not infected people, the zombies are. The monsters are from "somewhere else" and the marines get to Mars via a portal from earth, which they had to shut off. Which means the grass part may be on earth.

This is the pinky BTW:



Serious.

Is he not from Band of Brothers?

edit:
apparantly, he is. Dexter Fletcher is his name. John Martin is his name in the series.

Hes from Lock stock sir, too.

soap :icon14:

Dexter also used to host Gamesmaster on Channel 4 during the early 90s when it was set in an off shore prison colony.

It's just that the (trailer) fucking reeked of crappy-popcorn munching summer flick with all the fucking people looking like they are constipated and trying to act badass with their snappy haircuts and their one liners 'y0 y0 let's kick ass'. Typical movie based on some fantasy shit. The trailer looked almost as bad as aliens vs. predator

It's about the monah at this point, id could give two fucks if it is a good movie or not.

Wasn't there a hell knight in one of those shots... it was all small and shit and one of the marines punched it rofl. Doom should be about blasting that huge fucking walking tank from a distance with a shotgun, not having a tea party. (Yeah you can have berserk and punch in Doom, but imo that would come off somewhat cheesy in a movie =D).

Ok, some thigns confuse me... For one the imps look great. Take a look at my pics, most of the time they look good, but other times they look shit. I dont thnk that end shot with the eyes is an imp anymore, maybe a trite

Also the hellknight looks shit, but when Sarge fires the BFG (Which is blue, WTF?) at him, he seems huge...?

Here are some snaps. If anybody has a link to the high res trailer in quicktime i would be thanking j00:

Doesnt look that bad, tho it did remind me of Resident Evil...*shrug*

i still vin diesel > the rock. and he can do 'serious' stuff too. seen 'the boiler room'? he was excellent in that.

oh, and i didn't think chronicles of riddick was that bad at all. the script saved it from utter oblivion, and the necromongers made me lol. it was better than xXx

What would of made Doom better is if they looked the same... I.e. the marines had the same armor at least...
