why does that look so unbelievably cheesy, ffs. 

Set on some research facility. No demons, no Hell, no Phobos, just some horrid virus that's turning people into monsters. 

Doom movie will suck for sure... 

...why is it called the Doom movie again? And can't whoever owns the rights and the name (id or their publishers) crack down on their ass for misusing it?? 

they really dont care unless they specifically want to get involved in the movie production. 

surely the value of "the doom brand" has *some* value to id? Perhaps not enough to be worth making a fuss here. 

Apparently, the religious overtones (Demons/Hell etc.) were seen as too unsuitable for the target PG-13 rating, so it was changed to "A Virus". Graphic murder and gun violence is still ok for the kids though, it seems. 

Have they really changed it that much? What a fucking HEAP OF SHIT.

CUNTS. 

Apparently, the religious overtones (Demons/Hell etc.) were seen as too unsuitable for the target PG-13 rating

whoa, what the fuck. A Target PG-13 rating?! Oh my god. Makes so much sense, I mean that is Doom's target audience, is it not? Children too young to play Doom 3, and who were still pissing their pants when the original doom came out.

That said, i just read this comment by someone on imdb.com:

"The Rock was on the Daily Show with John Stewart last night and told everyone that he would be starring in the Doom movie." ... "He did state that the movie would be rated R and not PG-13 as some websites have stated (thank God!!) and that the BFG weapon would be in the flick but is referred to as a "Bio-Force Gun"....funny."

So maybe it is rated R, if so, great! But er, the Bio-Force Gun? Anyway, it says on the imdb page that they named fome characters after the id guys, namely Dr Steve Willits and Dr Carmack, which is cool, but the better way to show respect for the id guys would be to not remove their creative vision from the movie en-fucking-tirely.

I'm looking forward to seeing the character called pinky though �_�

So basically this is Resident Evil in Space? Not only have they ruined the concept but now it's a derivative of every other zombie story ever made? 

In continuing with the fine tradition of pretending to be cool by taking part in Asian culture, I've just watched Chunking Express. Its a nice enough film, but it really didn't do anything for me. 

didnt do much for me either, the heavy stylish touches on display severely distracted from the actual film and on the whole it seemed too much like random footage spliced together.

Also, just finished Before Sunrise and Before Sunset. Both are fine films but while most of it is reasonably well scripted, some of the dialogue jars with the rest because it sounds scripted as opposed to the conversational tone that's employed in the rest of the film(s). Still, both are good views.

That's basically the idea I got from reading a few previews. 

hi i dont really get what this is about at all this is the first time ive been on this site plz help im confused?? 

This is FUNC_MSGBOARD the best place in the universe omg!!!!!!!!!!!111eleven!!111one11!!

additional : I am the MOST HELPFUL person in the universe omg!!!!!!!!!!!111eleven!!111one11!! 

 

On the miniscule chance that you are not simply an alt-nick of one of the regular mouth-breathers:

func_msgboard is a site that mostly revolves around making user-created levels for the Quake series of games, although there are various other types of discussions going on at any given time as well. Welcome. Also "please" is spelled "please".

On the other hand, it's almost certain that this is some clownboat regular, so if so, then I hope you get anally violated by a hobo for wasting the previous few seconds of my life. 

show respect for the id guys would be to not remove their creative vision from the movie

I think calling it a creative vision is giving them a little too much credit. Let's face it, the Doom and Quake series are more a collection of ad-hoc shit that seemeed cool at the time. 

I think we're alone now/There doesn't seem to be anyone around 

This is the work of Zombie/Black Dog/PeeJ/distrans et. al 

But Peej is in the UK...

Or is he? 

Three Colours - Blue - This is very good, some of the visuals are very haunting and memorable and the themes are very well communicated to the viewer. Well worth watching.

His Girl Friday - Good film, but after a while the manic delivery and acting coupled with the extremely loud and overlapping dialogue started to make my head hurt. Still, theres some good wit on display and its well worth a watch. 

...Three colours in general. what did you think of the "series." Are they all worth watching, or just Blue? 

havent made it to red and white yet, I'll post once I get to them.
