Doom : The Movie

As for what I feel....I just pray it won't suck like most game-based movies.
It won't take place in Doom 3, but rather the Doom universe, making it rather seperate from all the games. I'm still guessing it takes place on Mars, or somewhere near Mars, like Phobos. Or evenly remotel possible, Earth (I hope not XD)
I'm probably gonna expect this as an action/horror hybrid since err....Doom 3 had some of its scary moments, but had action at the same time (probably gonna be swimming in ammo like Doom 3 <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> )
But still, I pray it si not teh sux. Hopefully the demons in CG will look better and not rather....blocky like in Doom 3 o_O
Well, either that or they put people in Imp suits and have CG fireballs XD

So yea, I think it will suck. But hey, I could be wrong!
Actually they are in post-production for the movie as we speak. They are developing a script for the movie first and the movie is DEFINATELY going to be rated R(There is no way they can get out of that).
For more information on this movie you should visit this <a href='http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0419706/' target='_blank'>link</a>.
Make sure you read all the forum posts aswell for more info.
Seriously: Super Mario Bros, Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat 2, Wing Commander, Resident Evil, Resident Evil 2 (pessemistic guess), House of the Dead, Tomb Raider (all of them), AvP (sorta, was a comic first...), Final Fantasy, Double Dragon, Street Fighter (thnx Scinet)...
I mean, seriously, I've lost all hope for ever seeing a decent video-game->movie transition. Too bad too, I so know that I could pull off Metroid (and HHGttG, but thats neither here nor there) if I could only get the license and a buch of money... At least I couldn't do any worse than John Woo...

~phew~ I feel better now =3
suck. suck. suck.
FF:spirits within was a decent movie btw... the animation at least, was brilliant (from what i've heard).
I don't see what's wrong with it as a film. I think people were expecting the usual fantasy + sci-fi elements stuff with chocobos and took a lil hissy fit when it turned out to be a full blown sci-fi. Normally stuff like that would annoy me too but pffff... it's not like the FF series is known for having a continuous story and aside from the usual 'signature inclusions' like chocobos, cid and the like they're all pretty different from each other in almost every way.
As for the doom film... well it's not like I'm into doom's story enough to be too bothered about the way they'll probably twist things so as long as it's a half decent action movie I might actually enjoy it o.O
i feel better too =3
Bah. The plot had less brains than the zombies, and was more full of holes than the aforementioned zombies after repeated high velocity lead injections. I went in hoping for a decent zombie flick, and got out hoping I wouldn't have gone to see it.
And hey, Skulkbait forgot Street Fighter, which was so awful it hurt.

anyway i hope they make it more of a sci-fi thriller/horror mixed with action rather than just mindless shooting n stuff.
i loved the scary buildup in event horizon, it was super creepy

Um... it sucked?
So did the FF movie...

It'll be G, with Shreck as the new Pinky.
Oh yea, and Resident Evil sucked. It wasn't scary, there was no suspense, I already knew the story because my zombified friends had been trying to get me to give that pile of crap Resident Evil "one more chance" by telling me the supposedly interesting story.
However, it wasn't <b>supposed</b> to be based on Final Fantasy games, was it?

That was horrible. I was waiting for him to say 'AND THEN NINJAS BREAK IN THROUGH THE WALLS AND LIKE KICK OFF AN IMPS HEAD!!!'
however I don't have much hope for this movie, as said the doom universe doesn't really have much of a story behind it; it'll probably be another hellboy.
edit: I liked mortal kombat in the way I like total recall, not in the way that I thought it was good.
Yes, it was in production by Warner Bros, but due to the contract that 'The project must be worked on' but Warner Bros didn't do nothing with it for over 14-18 months so doom took back the project/liscensing.
I forgot who has the liscensing now.

If FFx the game didn't come out and a movie version, that woulda been awesome. Best story for FF game ever <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

To be honest, I actually saw it twice (due to circumstances beyond my control) and thought it was only moderitly bad. But in general it was considered pretty bad, and I can see why people wouldn't like it. I mean, I've liked some other pretty bad movies ("UHF" for instance) so I'm not the best meter for these sorts of things.
As for RE, well, I haven't actually seen it. I was turned off by the scene in the trailer where some woman bounces off a wall and kicks a dog in the head. It just scremed "I'm a bad action movie! Don't waste $7 on me!". But again, it was considerd bad by people I know who've seen it.
