Title: What's worse than an AvP movie? DOOM. Post by: Lord Nepenthean on September 29, 2004, 03:48:29 PM http://www.insidemacgames.com/news/story.php?ArticleID=6312
Quote DOOM Movie On The Way The on again, off again DOOM movie may finally be on again. Despite several failed attempts over the past few years, it seems Warner Bros. Pictures is in final negotiations to bring the video game to the big screen. Once a deal is in place, a writer will pen the screenplay and production on the film would begin shortly after the script is finished and approved. According to published reports, the film's story will likely resemble DOOM III's storyline, which is set on a futuristic military base on Mars. When a scientific experiment goes awry and accidently opens a portal to hell, the hero must battle demonic forces. Warner Bros. is targeting a PG-13 rating for the movie.

Not on the other hand with PG 13 rating.

Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: IceBladeX on September 29, 2004, 05:49:01 PM Its WARNER BROS.!!! AAGGHHHH!
Warner Bros. even managed to screw up the Matrix. Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie? DOOM. Post by: Arrrhalomynn on September 29, 2004, 11:40:04 PM I bet it'll star the Rock. And lots of shooting and special effects.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Lord Nepenthean on September 30, 2004, 06:07:08 AM And no blood since they're going for a PG-13 rating. The movie part I could believe, but the rating they hope to get floored me.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: danvx6 on September 30, 2004, 04:41:46 PM I think the movie has a good potential as long as they ditch the PG13 idea. Any PG13 horror movie has to suck, what the hell are they thinking??
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: IceBladeX on October 03, 2004, 06:05:26 PM There just shouldnt be any game movies. I'll bet you 20 bucks theres a scene where The Rock kills many demons to a stupid Drowning Pool song.

I havent played to much of the game but it sounds and looked like a game that COULD make a good movie. I cannot stress the COULD enough. But PG13 will cut out anything that would make a Horror movie good. Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: IceBladeX on October 03, 2004, 06:33:30 PM Just remember man, dont ever get your hopes up.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Mike Leon on October 03, 2004, 07:48:36 PM I've been saying for years that DOOM could make a good movie. The catch here is that DOOM could make a good movie if someone actually TRIED to make it a good movie. Since no one has ever actually tried to make a video game based movie that was anything more than a commercial for the game, I don't think that will happen.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie? DOOM. Post by: Odonadon on October 03, 2004, 09:21:38 PM I actually liked the Doom books from a few years back. If they based the movie off those, it'd be cool. Pretty good storyline (either that, or the writing was good).
OD Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: danvx6 on October 03, 2004, 09:31:59 PM They need to get the effect that you get ut of the PDA logs in the game into the movie and try to get the philosophical junk in there about UAC and not just zombies, metal, The Rock, etc.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Izret101 on October 03, 2004, 09:37:18 PM When i played at youre house it was all about shooting everyone Good or bad in the head. At least for me andf the 20-30 min i played the game.
If they go for an R rating this movie will be much better off. Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: danvx6 on October 03, 2004, 09:40:49 PM maybe The Rock will be tolerable if it isn't a pure killfest. as long as theres no VIn Deisel.
That reminds me, wasnt The Rock supposed to do a Spy Hunter movie?? EDIT: I take that back, The Rock is not allowed near Doom. Ever. Except maybe HIS doom. Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Izret101 on October 03, 2004, 09:44:41 PM Vin Dizzle is the man (long story short inside joke sorry)
Diesle and the Rock are both good but only in there limited genres. Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie? DOOM. Post by: Arrrhalomynn on October 03, 2004, 11:56:01 PM no Deisel, no Dizzle, it's Diesel.
And both him and the rock suck. Christopher Walken should get that role. He's a badass. Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Izret101 on October 04, 2004, 03:37:12 AM I dont think he could pull a role like that off but i do like Walken.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie? DOOM. Post by: Arrrhalomynn on October 04, 2004, 05:25:03 AM Of course he could. He has a face that matches that of the space marine much better than the rocks awful face and vin diesel's biliart ball.

Walkens is a good actor but alot of the stuff he has been doing lately has been comedyish. Joe Dirt (David Spade and Kid Rock) and the Run Down(with the Rock and Ashton). I guess he like working with Rocks. Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM.

OR (http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/users/03/carey/the%20rock.jpg) I think Walken is the obvious choice. Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Zimbacca on October 04, 2004, 11:04:26 AM Yeah, I'm going with Walkens here too.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Izret101 on October 04, 2004, 11:16:12 AM OK i am done arguing this point noone is really reading what i say. I bet neither of them get the damn part anyways.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Sauza12 on October 04, 2004, 11:41:06 AM Maybe they will get that dreamy Ben Affleck guy. ::)
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Izret101 on October 04, 2004, 02:36:12 PM Maybe they will go a step better and get Orlando Bloom.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: danvx6 on October 04, 2004, 03:41:46 PM yeah, when mars is full of whiny hobbits.
Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie? DOOM. Post by: Odonadon on October 04, 2004, 10:43:26 PM No no no, you're all wrong. Corporal Flynn Taggart can only be played by.... well, I'd like to see David Duchovny rocking a space marine suit.

Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie? DOOM. Post by: Odonadon on October 27, 2004, 07:35:12 PM Um..... no.

Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: Antimind on October 28, 2004, 09:55:11 PM Nigel Bennet would have been a nice choice, he did an excellent job as Prince in Lexx (sorry, dork moment).
A Doom movie... Why oh why didn't Carmack put a stop to this. *sigh* the world is going to hell and this is only further proof. Title: Re: What's worse than an AvP movie?  DOOM. Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on October 29, 2004, 07:33:36 AM How can a movie with "Hyper-kinetic Kamikaze style" be PG-13? That just ain't right.
