reich1337 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Today doom comes out on DVD! Personally I thought it was a good movie for one made from a game and besides, I am a big fan of all the doom games myself!I will be running down to rent it today! Your thoughts on the movie and DVD :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 First person camera view just doesnt work in the movie. See Peep Show for great use of first person video Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

How2PK Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Haven't seen the movie, from what I've heard it's just average. I'll prolly see it when it comes out on DVD here in Holland, can take it home to see it from work, I'm not planning to spend money on seeing it. :P Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!

I don't know how much it is used in this movie, but in movies like The Untouchables or Cacḫ̩̉̉. Can be a great tension maker, don't know how it is used in Doom though. [edit] I read over the "the" movie. Sorry 30 minutes till Brokeback Mountain! Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!

Bubsa Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 If it's got The Rock in it, I own it :D It's a decent film for some adrenaline fun but that's about it. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assassin_696 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 First person camera view just doesnt work in the movie. See Peep Show for great use of first person video Haha, that's hilarious. I don't know about Doom though, never really been much a fan of the game or that genre. I might end up seeing it though.

Mr_Putter Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 If it's got The Rock in it, I own it :D Woot! I would say it was pretty good. They seemed to have way dumbed it down for those who don't wish to think/haven't played the game. Other than the fact that there was a "Doom Guy" or sorts, a "Sarge", it being on Mars and fighting IMP's, there was little connecting the movie to the game(s)...The story was way different...It was pretty good though, decent action flick... I kinda wanted more from The Rock+Doom...It didn't achieve what it should have. Oh yeah, and the First-Person type thing DID work...I thought it was excellent. And plus, why does everyone always mention that when they think of the movie? It was only in first person for like a minute and a half (of amazing action!!!) But I guess it did make more buzz for the movie... So - I'll watch the movie again, but probably won't buy it, atleast for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danabis Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 I thought the first person view was awesome too. I watched it with like... 5 mates and we were all shouting and stuff at the extreme action during the first person view.

reich1337 Posted February 7, 2006 Author Share Posted February 7, 2006 I agree that the FPS-style part of the movie was mediocre but then again it wasnt that bad...But the Pinky monster got ripped off by that guy in a wheelchair.Lets just say that the top part of his body came but the other got left behind. or something like that. :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
