I totally forgot about the Doom movie

......unti I saw the commercial for it during American Dad tonight. So I went and looked up the trailer and junk.

I thought it looked a wee bit retarded.

Who cares if it sucks, it has The Rock!

Re: I totally forgot about the Doom movie

I'm seeing it for The Rock and Eomer - they rule - but the movie's action/horror probably won't be up to snuff as the snuff these days is pretty weak. And that first-person stuff looks rather poor.

But hey, it's a videogame movie. Gotta see it. For some reason.

At least there paying tribute to the gamers, unlike most game movies where they try and be most unlike there game counter part.

Re: I totally forgot about the Doom movie

Notice how they have a first person camera view...


The pink demons look worse than in the game. They look too cg.

Re: I totally forgot about the Doom movie

I just hope the first person scenes don't turn out to be as bad an idea as the game footage spliced into House of the Dead. Not that I've actually seen it, but I've read things. Terrible things.

So I take it you are going to watch the Johnny Bravo movie when it comes out then, right?

Re: I totally forgot about the Doom movie

I'd go with Patrick Warburton for Johnny Bravo. I just can't see the Rock pulling it off.

Re: I totally forgot about the Doom movie

I can't see Warburton doing it either... But really? They have The Rock down for Johnny Bravo? Geez.

Re: I totally forgot about the Doom movie

Yeah, he's playing JB. Not only the Doom movie, but he's in the Spy Hunter movie as well.

House of the Dead was horrible. I think production should've grinded to a halt when the only intention of paying tribute was cutting and pasting a cluster of 1.4 second clips of game footage into the movie.

Re: I totally forgot about the Doom movie

I can't really see Warburton doing it either but I think he'd do the no eyes look and voice better than The Rock will. I'm one of the biggest fans of Dwayne Johnson, but anytime he tries to act as anything other than the Rock it just comes off as incrediblely cheesey. If Warburton can pull off a decent Tick then he should be able to do Johnny Bravo better than the Rock.

Re: I totally forgot about the Doom movie

That kicks ass, I used to watch that cartoon when I was a kid. The Rock would totally kick ass as Bravo!

Re: I totally forgot about the Doom movie

Actually, he's Dwayne Johnson now because he no longer works for WWE and WWE has exclusive ownership over "The Rock" label.

The movie looks interesting though.
