It'll be crap. Even the plot summary makes it sound pants: In the year 2145, a group of Marines on Phobos, the moon of Mars, face off against monsters who infiltrate their base after an experiment goes seriously awry.

Rar monsters ooooh, and The Rock as the main character!!!! pah

Oh dear. they're even changing the main aspects of the game.

Screenwriter Dave Callahan claims "everyone was keen to keep the game's atmosphere", though there are some "minor" changes done to the film's concept: The monsters have nothing to do with hell, the plot is not taking place on Mars and "space marines" are not well "space marines" as their outfits are more like SWAT team members.

wicked i mite get that when its out

Must be Doom we're talking about here.

Come on. What plot did the game have? It'll suck. Plain and simple. It'll be pg13 and have "The Rock" as the lead. Much as I love the games, this will be an abomination. All we need is Uwe Boll, Paul Anderson or god forbid, Michael Bay directing.........

Damn - they've removed the decent plot devices of the game, too.

people will still go see it. i know i will :( i'm such a sheep. i hate the idea that they have changed so much of the story. i don't think it will be very good up i have seen alot of poo films so i am going to see this one just incase they do something good with it.

There, they learn that something strange is happening and soon monsters start to appear. The monsters aren't from hell, but rather people mutated by some nasty super-virus although the monsters look very similar to those in the game.

aka resident evil

I thought Doom 3 had a decent plot. Ancient alien civilizations fighting the very forces of hell you're up against, sure it wheren't shakespeare, but it was at least a change from the norm.

Although there's the biggest problem, The reason that Doom 3's story worked so well was that it left you to uncover it from the many data pads left lying around. Without that interaction the movie was problably doomed (arf) from the outset.

Not far off, the director of this big screen adaption has directed such classics as Exit Wounds, Romeo Must Die and Cradle 2 the Grave.

So we go from RE stylee

"The story follows eight marines, teleported into a command centre of a secret base on a remote planet. There, they learn that something strange is happening and soon monsters start to appear."



to Alien Ressurection stylee

"One character is a technician called "Pinky" who has a cybernetic wheelchair "

Whilst completley ditching the whole idea of Doom by removing Mars, Hell and Marines? Whats the point?
