Linguica Posted July 29, 2005 First 4 Figures was nice enough to send us an email to tell us (well, to tell you really, we are just a proxy) that they've put up some pictures of the upcoming Doom movie in preparation for their selling movie-based figurines to nerds with too much money. The monsters... don't look CGI, that's for sure. (img) 0 Share this post Link to post
Jehar Posted July 29, 2005 fp... and they look like hk's.... kinda. No not really. They look like nothing from doom at all.... shit this just gets worse and worse. They don't even look demonic at all. Just generic mutants, which I begin to fear they are, and not having anything to do with hell\teleportation. Resident Evil... in...

Sharessa Posted July 29, 2005 My god, non-CGI monsters. It just might not suck afterall. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jehar Posted July 29, 2005 The fact that they are not cgi IS a big plus, but the fact that the design is so non-doomish kills it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Baphomet666 Posted July 29, 2005 Ok, i see the pic of the supposed Hell Knight Grabbing onto a guy, Weren't the Hell Knights like 3 times taller than the average Adult Human in Doom? 0 Share this post Link to post
Bashe Posted July 29, 2005 That doesn't have to be a Hell Knight...it could be anything really. Also in Doom, the Hell Knight appears to be as big (maybe a little bigger) than you. 0 Share this post Link to post
Vegeta Posted July 29, 2005 They look very cool for me, like the first DOOM 3 video (that one with the Birdman). The first one I wish is an imp, still if it's not, I'm sure it'll be an enjoyable movie. You can have a good time even if it's not DOOM related at all. Still of course I really hope that hell has something to do with these monsters. And if it seems to suck badly (by reviews), then that's what certain program called *-mule it's for ;-) Edit: they have a nice hellish look if you think that their skins look like that because of the flames of hell. Yeah I know most probably that's not gonna happen. 0 Share this post Link to post
Job Posted July 29, 2005 I think if we try too much to compare it to Doom 3 we'll be (moreso) disappointed. It's kind of cool to see that they're keeping true to some aspects of the game itself, though, like the imp autopsy. Unfortunately, said autopsy loses some of its credibility by tossing an attractive woman instead of a middle-aged scientist. I hope that you all understand why this can't be entirely true to the game though. The necessary budget to include the whole Doom monster cast would be pretty high. Or you'd have to at least have some cg monsters instead of live-action. That's the tradeoff you have to consider, I suppose. 0 Share this post Link to post
Kelzam Posted July 29, 2005 The imp looks better on a still even on an autopsy table than it did in the trailer. The Hell Knight though (what they apparently call "The Baron" in the movie" is puny compared to what it is in the game, though. Damnit. 0 Share this post Link to post

SPACE ace ace ce e I'm pretty sure I speak for many people on this forum as well as myself that I'm about 5 seconds from yelling "SHUT UUUUUUUUPPPP!!!!!" at you the way Arnold did to the kids in "Kindergarten Cop".

Ralphis Posted July 29, 2005 It was established a very long time ago that there would be non-CGI monsters. Also Arnold is 6+ 0 Share this post Link to post
Jonesy89 Posted July 29, 2005 Can't even access these pics. Who knows, this may turn out like Final Fantasy; a good movie that has nothing to do with the game. 0 Share this post Link to post
Shaikoten Posted July 29, 2005 Heh, one of the guy who played (multiple) imps is also the guy who played that aquatic guy in the crappy Hellboy movie. Although the movie sucked, his motions weren't too bad. Also, he's a rather tall, lanky guy, so I think he fits the imp role. 0 Share this post Link to post
Bank Posted July 29, 2005 Don't come up for me, BUUUUUUT, they could spice up the movie on my part if they added this wicked case somewhere: http://humantree.com/computer_cases/images/doom-case-logo-side.jpg 0 Share this post Link to post

destx Posted July 30, 2005 Scuba Steve said:Schwartzenegger is like 5'11" Ralphis said:Also Arnold is 6+ Wikipedia said:While Arnold Schwarzenegger's height was always believed to be 6 feet, 2 inches (1.88 m), a July 2002 article in US Weekly magazine speculated that Schwarzenegger was actually closer to 5 ft 10 in (1.78 m). During his campaign for governorship it was noted that Schwarzenegger was considerably shorter than many expected, with others putting his height at around 5 ft 10 in (1.78 m), exactly as reported in US Weekly. His spokespeople now give his height as 6 ft even (1.83 m). In photographs of Schwarzenegger standing next to George W. Bush in Ohio in October 2004, the Governor is one inch shorter than the 5 ft 11 in President. O_o 0 Share this post Link to post
