Doom is based off of the video game of the same name. Can you say scary as hell?

dOOM is based on a Mid 90's computer game.
Domino is a movie about a serial killer.
Fog is a horribly bad horror movie.

Of your choices 2 for the money is probably the best bet.

I wonder if Doom will be any good?
Usually I can't stand The Sock.

I want to see the Corpse Bride before Halloween, but I don't think I can make the time. Also want to see Wallace and Grommet and Serenity.

If they're gonna make more movies based on video games, I vote for "Gorf."

Corpse Bride SUCKED! It was way overrated!

other then gambling, what is 2 for the money about??
Is Doom a good movie? We want to see something scary. Can you give more details? Is Domino a good movie, is it scary?

Doom looks scary. If its anything like newest Generation of the game, there will parts where you literally [censored] yourself because its terrifying. I own the game and when me and my friends want to get scared we put it on with no lights. It truly is terrifying

Ummm, no, it's not. Domino is a fictionalized account of the life of Domino Harvey, privileged daughter of Hollywood 'royalty' who opts for the career of bounty hunter.

I just read a bad review on Doom.

Re: Movies - 10/21/05 08:11 PM

who, sorry i was misinformed. That sounds better. Bounty hunter/ serial killer who wins??

Re: Movies - 10/21/05 08:14 PM

Reveiws don't mean [censored]. People said "Waiting.." sucked and that's a great movie! Same goes for "Super Troopers" and a bunch of others. So take your movie review and cram it.

Nice one barbarian, took you a while to come up with it though...

Re: Movies - 10/21/05 09:18 PM

Super Troopers...right up there with Gone With the Wind, Ben Hur, The 10 Commandments, Forrest Gump, and several other Oscar notables...

Anyway, I think the commercial for Doom shows the hero being played by "The Rock" of wrestling fame. That should tell you right there if it is good or not.

Re: Movies - 10/21/05 09:22 PM

I never said that Super Troopers was an Oscar calibur movie, I said it was great. Great is not synonamous with Oscar, even in movie land. Its a comedy, so its supposed to make you laugh, which it does a great job of - which is something everybody should do at least 10 times a day.

one of the best I've ever played. When it was released in 1993, even Time magazine did a review on it. The emotions you get playing it is part of the fun of it. DooM 3 is only out on Xbox. Sad. Final Doom for Playstation 1 is a good sequel to the first game. As far as the movie goes, I don't know. probably not as good as playing the actual game. Mortal Combat movie, Tomb Raider and Resident Evil, good movies. Doom, I just don't think they can pull it off.

saw 2 for the money this week - entertaining. The 1st half of the movie is really good, but the last half kinda drags. good part for me - Matthew McConaughey shirtless in quite a few scenes!

Re: Movies - 10/21/05 09:59 PM

I have Doom 3 for the pc also. It is very fun and entertaining. But the gameplay is not there because of the intense graphics.
