fermentor666 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Trailer for the Doom movie is out: http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/doom.html Looks pretty stupid to me, particularly because they are actually doing first-person camera shots from what it seems. I didn't have much hope in the first place, especially since the director, Andrzej Bartkowiak, has these movies credited to him: # Cradle 2 the Grave (2003) # Exit Wounds (2001) # Romeo Must Die (2000) The Rock is a pretty good choice for the Sarge, but seriously the movie looks fucking retarded. The graphics in Doom 3 are better then the ones in this game. And 50 bucks says "The Kid" is the first one to die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fermentor666 Posted August 25, 2005 Author Share Posted August 25, 2005 It's funny because there are all sorts of idiots defending this movie on the IMDB boards and saying that the FPS scenes are made for the hardcore Doom fans. Well I've been a hardcore Doom fan since it came out in 1993 and I think it looks like crap. Of course, I also enjoy good cinema and have a brain.

fermentor666 Posted August 25, 2005 Author Share Posted August 25, 2005 On a completely random note, I just figured out that Prodigy's "Voodoo People" from Music for the Jilted Generation (Feb 27th 1995) samples the opening riff from Nirvana's "Very Ape" on In Utero (Sept. 31, 1993). Pretty ballsy of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weapon X Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 I saw this before, and laughed. Those fps scenes - haha. Isn't the rule that the black dude dies first? The kid ain't black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fermentor666 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Share Posted August 28, 2005 In general, making a movie about a first person shooter is probably the worst idea in the history of bad movie ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindvapors Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 ur ALL still gonna see it. whether it be on release day in the theaters or bootleg online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fermentor666 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Share Posted August 28, 2005 That's true. I know I'm going to be seeing this in the theaters. Maybe my super-low expectations will make me think it's awesome. Or by saying that I have super low expectations that will make me think it's awesome, am I actually having high expectations? Hmmmm....ParadoX (points to anyone that actually gets that capitalization reference on ParadoX). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CACashRefund Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 This movie is going to suck. Those fps scenes really kill it, i mean if they were really doing this for the fans then they would not have put out a movie to begin with. Ive been playing the doom series of games ever since i got my hands on doom2 in 95. Its really sad for them to exploit something like this and not even make it decent. But im not surprised.

ParadoX the Doom-player turned Quake-player turned mini-celebrity turned developor for Ritual, who put out the first Quake add-on and the failed game, SiN.

GnomeToys Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 At least Uwe Boll isn't directing it. If you saw House of the Dead you know what I mean, if you managed to avoid tearing your eyes from their sockets after the 5th time he flashed pixellated graphics from the Genesis game on the screen during a cut between cameras.
