Why the FUCK did they make those changes?!

"it's doom, but it doesnt have space marines, mars or monsters from hell. but it's still doom."

Bullshit. Thats like saying "Its a fish. i has no scales, cant breathe water, and looks like a cow, but it is still a fish." fucking retards. Their line of reasoning (if they had one...) must have gone like this:

Well... Everyone else who has made a movie off of a video game has completely fucked it up.... Why shouldnt we?
Hey! Look! Crushed Glass! Lets try marketting it as a snack to Burger King.


I hate these people. How fucking hard would it have been to make a doom movie true to the story? Need a mars set? Im sure Red Planet, Mission to MArs or even Total Recalll have some set pieces left over. And sweet fucking christ, you KNOW they are going to have cgi monsters init... Why the hell couldnt they get the first-draft cgi shit from id software? One o fhteir primary modelers worked as a special effects guy in hollywood for years, and the models they make for the game are immensly detailed, then get pared down fo rthe game release.

And not from hell? Pussy PC bullshit, that is all. Same crap happened back in 2nd edition Dungeons and Dragons. They were too afraid of being branded satanic so they changed the demons and devils to other things.... I fucking hate th entertainment industry... spineless dickheads.

Well they're never gonna make a Duke Nukem movie so it doesn't matter. I think The Rock will do a pretty good job in the Doom movie. He's not a great actor, but he certainly doesn't suck. The Rundown and the Walking Tall remake weren't bad. I'm definitely stoked for the film.

I agree Vod, it's a combination of the pussy PC bullshit and also directors/producers all wanting to 'reimagine' things and make it their own. They don't want to do the story justice by sticking with it as it's been told in the games, of course fleshing it out a bit to add some character but overall leaving it ALONE. They want to remake it in their image and ruin it, they're using a known franchise name and he's changing the story to where it will be utter bullshit and will suck major ass. Kinda like what they did with the new Battlestar Galactica, took a known franchise to push a weak story and cash in.

Well as the directors usually say, they don't wanna make the movie exactly like the game because then the audience will know what's coming and there won't be any suspense.

Don't they understand that's what we WANT?

where the hell have you smelled one before to get the comparrison ?

if it was the neighbours, i'd move !!

That's true. There's nothing wrong with them changing some things around a bit but not major plot points (i.e. Marines instead of SWAT, not being demons etc) as that kills the story. Without even seeing this movie and just upon hearing the quick blurb here, if this is how this movie will progress it will miserably fail.

non of the Rock's movies have flopped so far, they may not've been all that popular but strictly speaking of the money they made non of them actually flopped and I don't think this one will either. One-it's a video game movie so that's one audience of people it has, two-The Rock is in the movie, that's a audience of wrestling fans that are going to see it then after that you've got people who are just going to want to see it for the action,because they see a trailer that interest them ect.

just come across some info on Empire.... The Rock was interviewed and he talked briefly about the film

btw it's going to get an R Rating and this one should make Vod a bit more confident... cgi wont be used for the creatures, apparantly the monsters will be all anamatronics, produced and made by Stan Winston who did Jurassic Park and Predator :) so things are looking a bit better.



** there are some spoilers in the interview ***
