Did you guys like the Doom movie? Talk about it, what was cool about it, what sucked about it? What would have made it better?
I didn't like how they changed the "science" to include people changing into the doom monsters, instead of being factory-built from corpses as established in the game. I thought they really kinda' missed the boat, and it was no longer really Doom.
Plus where's my Cyberdemon? I wanted to have the characters listening to the cyberdeamon stomping around the next passageway, looking at each other, wondering what the hell the massive noise was coming from.
I wanted a slow reveal of seeing it's feet first, and then travelling up it's body to it's horned head.
I wanted to hear roars when the characters were spotted, and see stuff just running at the characters roaring, etc.
I wanted them to use the old backstory where an alien race had been to earth and mapped out the things that scared humans, and then returned, using fearful imagery pulled from them, including the demons, zombies, etc. I wanted the hallways which looked fine until you got into an area where the demons had redecorated the place in blood, etc.
It had such huge potential and then fizzled out as far as I'm concerned.
I'm glad the BFG was there though.. I was pretty pleased with that.
