Amen to that, a good chunk of the footage in the trailer was fpv... *tears eyes out* oh god why. Are they trying to APPEAL to us or something? Or young kids who think that is the shizz? Then again... it's rated r... so! *head explodes* 0 Share this post Link to post
Fanatic Posted September 11, 2005 That poster is horrible, I can't masturbate to that at all. Looks like a last minute thought... 0 Share this post Link to post
khartael Posted September 11, 2005 Well, the machine gun in Doom 3 -does- resemble a P90 a whole lot. The Counter-Strike hands is obviously a marketing trick to increase sales, and ... ..eh. It's not really that bad. 0 Share this post Link to post
SulfurOccult Posted September 11, 2005 it looks nothing like the gun we see "the guy" holding in the trailer though, lol. It looks like the work of a second year Community College Student.hey, shutup! :P 0 Share this post Link to post

sgtcrispy Posted September 11, 2005 ugh... It's not completely awful, but it's no work of art. They are taking the whole FPS thing a wee bit too far methinks. ugh... EDIT: This should have been the poster image.. http://www.comingsoon.net/cgi-bin/imageFolio.cgi?action=view&link=Action/Doom&image=logo.jpg&img=&tt= 0 Share this post Link to post
Kristian Ronge Posted September 11, 2005 The poster looks wonderful. It's everything I hoped it would be. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted September 11, 2005 The thing is it means like nothing. OK a guy is holding a gun and there's some weird monster in the background... uh... OK. I was hoping for some recreation of the Doom 1 art but I figured that was pretty unlikely. I wouldn't even have minded a standard "floating heads" poster if it had shown Mars and maybe a decent shot of a demon. The only thing this poster does is say "OH MY GOD SHOOTING MONSTERS IN TUNNELS!!!!!" Plus I don't understand why the hell the hell knight appears to be a piece of paper with bullet holes punching through it, or why there's a crosshair BEHIND the gun, or why the logo looks so blase, or well lots of things really. 0 Share this post Link to post

Bastet Furry Posted September 11, 2005 We can rant till christmas and easter has the same date but it wont change that some Mr Rich Moneysack ordered that poster for the doom movie. *wanders of ranting about capitalism* 0 Share this post Link to post
Touchdown Posted September 11, 2005 The only thing I like about this poster is that its first-person, original for a poster. But IS THIS a poster for doom? I agree, this useless piece of paper tells nothing but... just what we've seen in last trailer. It'll be about seeing everything through eyes of SWAT members, stuff like shooting mutants and etc. BTW, I think FPS sequences SUX so far. I mean, not the idea of fps scenes but how they're solved. While watching them I don't feel like I'm one of those soldiers, on no. It's VERY unnatural. And why the hell they make this poster look so infernal? I mean, fire-like background and sentence: HELL breaks loose? Don't fool people it's hellish cuz it's not, no demons, no hell... Heh, they think that they'll throw fps scenes in and it'll remind people of DooM. Yeah, right. Sorry that I sound so angry at this movie, but... I am and I think it'll sux. S-U-X. It already SUX and I don't think I'll change my mind after seeing it. 0 Share this post Link to post

m0l0t0v Posted September 11, 2005 The poster looks more "Doom" than anything else I've seen from the movie so far, so I'm actually pleased with it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Youn Posted September 12, 2005 Most of the time the graphic designers who make posters have no direct involvement in the actual movie. There will probably be other posters too. I'm just glad it isn't the standard collage of profile shots of the actors, that would probably suck more. 0 Share this post Link to post

Chrono_T Posted September 13, 2005 Did anyone look at the scope of that weapon? It appears to have the image of a mountain on it--- Reminds me of E1... An original doom reference? Oh those clever bastards. 0 Share this post Link to post
