Eh. I liked the Final Fantasy movie. Besides, it's not like the Final Fantasy games have much to do with each other, aside from the carryover of giant chickens and teddybears with antennas and wings.

Someday, though, I hope to see a movie that's actually reasonably true to the storyline of the original game. I can accept stuff getting cut out. I can't accept blatant butchery of the plot.

Yeah, it's not going to be a good movie regardless of what they do with the plot.  Lets face it, Doom has essentially no plot anyway.  And the "Bio Force Gun" is the BFG, though the name has obviously changed to allow it to be said on-air.

From the description, it sounds more like System Shock than Doom.

Tombraider was actually kinda OK, I thought they had at least put some effort into it, and Angelina did well.

But FF was stuck up it's own ass - OMG! SPESHUL EFFECTS!

I didn't make the effort to see any of the others, but I sense they were all pretty meh..

I think they could *possibly* do something with Halo, but Doom? I doubt it...

[Turnsky]

what the hell is wrong with people these days?

i mean, a movie can have sex and gore in it, and people won't give a **** about it, but mention hell and the whinging bloody little bible-bashers put up a big stink about it..

bastards.

Their making a Halo movie (possibly) with Ridley Scot Directing. I hope it doesn't suck.

As long as it uses the books as a plot. The Fall of Reach could make a kickass film if done right.

Halo film will be about a rookie soldier in a group of Space Marines, who has to face both the mysterious aliens from abandoned colony AND face the corporation that is guilty of murdering his family! And not just that - there's a mutiny growing inside the squad...

Developing...

I think it would be it's own saga in halo universe

This better be a joke, otherwise *pulls out a chainsaw*

[Flipside]

It's not a joke alas, and watch the wiring with that thing

One character is a technician called "Pinky" who has a cybernetic wheelchair thanks to a bad teleporting accident. Pinky later mutates into something remotely resembling a creature from Doom 3. Producers claim that the film will be more of a horror than an action shooter.

saw that in Event Horizon already. kind of.

but there it actually was hell. and they were in space. not mars, tho, but jupiter. liberate toteme ex inferis

and I liked the tomb raider movie, actually. and I had a laugh watching street fighter. jean-claude is always watchable, and having kylie in it, well...

They probably thought the DOOM plot was too close to Hellboy to make a viable film so they ripped off Resident Evil instead.

[Ransom]

I hope they realise that the majority of the people who would want to watch the film think it sounds like a pile of **** and change it. But I guess it's already too late for that.

A 'decaying orbit around Neptune', wasn't it?

it can have been. it was a while since I watched it. I can get back to you in this matter in a couple of weeks, as I think I'll rewatch it somewhere there.

[Fineus]

Yep, Event Horizon was located in the upper atmosphere of Neptune...at least for the duration of the film

[kode]

aren't you spoiling a bit too much?
