Hey, there is a new DOOM movie out, Annhiliation.

[Amnaught]

Why in the world would they try to do this again? When it's so obvious that they'd be better off making an animated movie? Unrealistic animation in the over-the-top style of DOOM: Eternal would look way cooler than this ugly crap

[PenguinChan]

Just from the trailer alone it'll be worse than the original DOOM movie, and that's kinda hilarious. They might as well have not even made it, it's going to flop and at best break even. Which given what the cast and quality of the movie looks like from the trailer, I'm not surprised.

As I said, if me, someone who don't like shooters and real life guns, think that the BFG looks like a toy, it's not a good sign. (Then again, it's not like the BFG was aiming for realism…)

This looks like something Universal shit out just to keep the Doom film rights. I wonder if Fox needed to release the Fantastic Four films in theaters in order to keep the rights because this seems like it would have been a smarter and cheaper movie to do something like this. And honestly I hate a bad direct to dvd film less than I a bad movie released in theaters atleast I might watch this once or twice if it ever shows up on tv while I'd never watch FANT4STIC if it was on.

FANT4STIC was actually a better movie than this one,I mean they both suck,but Doom Annihilation sucks just a little harder.

I watched this yesterday, you can find it on torrent already. It.is.bad. As bad as they come... bad acting, plot, dialogues, CGI... jesus, the '''demons''' for half of the movie are just bald zombie scientists reusing the same mask, and when the supposed actual demons shows up, its clearly just a guy wearing a bad rubber costume from a halloween store. The first Doom movie was actually enjoyable comparared to this one.

[Rennadrel]

hmf...wasn't this particular trailer posted earlier...somewhere? To be released direct-to-video if I recall.

Usually if it's direct to DVD, it's bound to be shit. In this case, it is. And not just because of the casting choices, but because it's a low budget film with no respect for the franchise as a whole. Whoever thought it was a good idea needs a swift kick in the dick.

The Room movie with The Rock is typical C grade entertainment. This is the equivalent of an F grade film. I've seen better films made by high school students.

That awkward moment when you realised some Ok'd the release of this movie with the Doom Brand name on it..

[Lorgar Aurelian]

As some one who knows nothing about doom I enjoyed the first movie. This one just looks cheap though.

[Tiwack]

Going for the oldschool vibe with a limited budget, it could go either way.

As I said, if me, someone who don't like shooters and real life guns, think that the BFG looks like a toy, it's not a good sign. (Then again, it's not like the BFG was aiming for realism…)

If you look at how the MC moves the weapon itself, it moves like it's 2 lbs of plastic. If you've ever had to carry around an M2 (I'm sure some others here have had to do that), the gun w/o the tripod alone weighs over 80lbs, and volume-wise it still looks way smaller than the BFG in the clip. All hand-waiving sci-fi materials/components aside, there's a really high probability that it would still weigh a decent amount. Regardless, it looks like someone lifting a boulder in a movie that's made of foam, and there's no attempt to pretend it has weight.

I think I mentioned this in another thread with some other movies, but other than the guns the props/settings/clothing are way too sterile. The clothes in the clip all look like they were just taken off the clothing rack: there's zero sign that the clothes have ever been worn before at any point. The aliens look like they're plastic, it literally looks like in some parts humans in plastic skin suits. If you look at the rooms and the props all around, they all look like the paint finished drying a couple hours before the scene was shot, and that the janitor finished polishing the metal props right after the paint had dried. Now, I'd like to think the trailer is a pre-production preview, so film editing hasn't been done to do touch-ups to add wear-and-tear and clean up video to make it more realistic/believable... but I'm not holding my breath.

In general, this is a flaw that I've seen in a bunch of movies recently: there's so many glaring issues that a person's suspension of disbelief gets broken all the time, making the experience not enjoyable. With my physics/engineering background, it sometimes makes it harder to suspend my disbelief when it comes to those matters, but films like these don't even seem to be making an effort to make things believable enough that some hand-waving science can be overlooked. The trailer is just littered with things that would break my suspension of disbelief that I'd don't look forward to this movie at all. Just looks like a cash grab and/or the majority of the production doesn't really care. What separates this trailer from the previous DOOM movie is that the previous movie shows that at least some people actually cared about the movie and the franchise while the trailer doesn't give me that impression at all.

For reference, what DOOM actually looks like:

[Itori]

People these days just dont realize that movies based on great games just shouldnt be done, let the games tell the story, if you want more, ask for comics or books.

[FlemmMinis]

Seems like the movie follows Bethesda quality requirements.

[Project 501D13R]

This Doom movie looks just as bad as the last one was.

[ParanoiD84]

This Doom movie looks just as bad as the last one was.

I acually enjoyed the first one, was it amazing no but it was alright atleast. This just looks like a joke.

[Zmagoslav]

Wow this was bad... they somehow managed to make it worse than the 1st one.

They event went so far to show the corpse of the Doom guy (playable character)...

[Orby]

Event Horizon is still the best Doom movie we'll ever have it seems :P

[Ringthane]

Keep on shitposting, shitposter.

Funny how when I post stuff like this I get infracted.

Necroing threads isn't allowed. Infracted.

Closing this.
