007007008plp Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 ...wonder if the film will be as 1337 as the game is. Im hoping for it to be good. from what i've seen it might just be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AThousandLies Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 I remember talks of a DOOM movie in '94 or so. It's one of those things that you think would never happen. I'm not confident about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necromagus Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 To be honest, I'm still not convinced that this movie will be in any way worthy of the name. The first-person thing looks nifty, but I think it's little more than a gimmick. The only reason it works so well in videogames is because it lets you control the action. A movie just can't do that. The special effects are nice, but a movie will need to do a lot more than just look pretty *cough*newstarwarsmovies*cough*. Still, that one shot with the chainsaw at the end shows that there might be hope yet...

Mr_Putter Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I'm definately going the first night (or, assuming it comes out on Tuesday, I'll go the Friday). For one, it looks awesome. Two, I really like the games...They have a really good story. I don't think the movie will capture the freaky atmosphere, simply because you're not in control...But it will still be a good watch. And finally, its got....THE ROCK. He's an amazing action star with decent acting skills (he won't win an Oscar but...he was a wrestler, give him some credit.) I'm really excited about the movie. Though I'm more excited about other game-to-movie things (Splinter Cell...Spy Hunter (also featuring THE ROCK) and what is gonna be the best movie ever: MAX PAYNE).

blade995 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I am going to see this movie! It looks so cool :D :D . It looks like the game and I am a huge doom fan. I didn't even know they were making a movie either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatsilverwyrm Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 It looks like, from the preview, that they're splicing in shots from the game? That would completely destroy it's value for everyone except the few oddballs that wouldn't mind. People who don't play the game would think it's cheesey- hardcore fans may be offended-...

DaN Posted September 1, 2005 Author Share Posted September 1, 2005 Im sure we,ve all seen movies where during a battle we are taken inside the warriors helmet to see what he sees. I belive their trying to create the effect of feeling involved by putting us in first person. only time will tell if it'll work ~Dan64AuSince 27 Aug 2002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antrune Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Well I loved the games so Im gunna definetly see this. I think saw the advert for it on E4. Hope The Rock is gunna be good 8) And no lol why do you always want to get stuff from John Lewis. Its over ̣̉300 more then than what i paid. John Lewis is a great, great shop.

How2PK Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 I don't think the FPS cam will be much of a success. Probably the biggest reason is that it has to be handheld, I don't see how it could be realistic otherwise. And constant action with handheld is very annoying and may cause cinema sickness. Also I don't think you have any interaction in the movie, where you do have that with the game, so I think it's kind of useless. Nice that they try it, it could be something of course. :) Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!

Antrune Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Resident evil films were pretty good I thought and they were Game 'ports'. Spose it wasnt a FPS though. And no lol why do you always want to get stuff from John Lewis. Its over ̣̉300 more then than what i paid. John Lewis is a great, great shop.

Lionheart_0 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 :( my computer has just been reformated, and therefore retarted at the moment... I cant see it. So im guessing at some times it has you watching the person through their helm fight? Sounds odd. Sig by IkuraiYour Guide to Posting! Behave or I will send my Moose mounted Beaver launchers at you!
