Sgt Craig Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 just looked at the trailer for the latest Game to Movie franchise, Doom In it the Colonial Marines use what looks like a beefed up G36c with the G36 optics looks like a nice project for anyone wanting an alternative to the Pulse rifle from Aliens get the trailer here Link to post Share on other sites
TDS Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Neat looking Ive read the screenplay though, the movie is going to be terrible. Shame though, i'm a big DooM fan Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Yeah, they're G36s with a digital counter on the side and I believe a SUREFIRE underneath. TDS - where's the screenplay? I have yet to find a genuine one. Link to post Share on other sites
TDS Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 TDS - where's the screenplay? I have yet to find a genuine one. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ummm, I dont think I saved it. Over on fark.com the guy that wrote it posted up peices of it and appologized for being the person to "do in the bum" the best video game series ever Its actually not "that bad" if you are expecting a B action movie, not DooM. I was more expecting something like the games, far more demonic/religious undertones. Then again, there are people out there that actually liked resident evil >.> Link to post Share on other sites
CommandoBoy Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 they are going to ruin the series. Doom 3 is my favorite game ever. Link to post Share on other sites
Foxtrot Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 they are going to ruin the series. Doom 3 is my favorite game ever. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Young one! Doom - the orignal - forever. Hey, at least Quake 4 is going some where... trailer is awesome. Link to post Share on other sites
CommandoBoy Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Young one! Doom - the orignal - forever. Hey, at least Quake 4 is going some where... trailer is awesome. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Doom 1 and 2 are in my top ten favorite games. Also Quake IV looks great, cant wait until it comes out on XBOX360.

Curious Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Yes! Original Doom for teh win! I loved Quake as a lil boy. G36 looks like a good project, i agree, what grenade launcher attachment is that in the first pic? Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticMag Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Looks made-up. Link to post Share on other sites
PsyGen Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 As long as they don't "Tomb Raider" it I think it looks cool. The G36's sure are looking beefy there. And off topic, but Rosamund Pike.... :D Link to post Share on other sites
TDS Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Doom - the orignal - forever. You should download ZdoomGL, you can play the original doom in full 3d with lighting and stuff, its fantastic. Also, try the alien vendetta addon chapters, Its the best map set ive ever played, by far, and pretty hard too. Link to post Share on other sites

ExaltedDragon45 Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Was anyone expecting the movie to be good? All video game to movie (as well as movie to video game) transitions are godawful. It's a rare treat when you find a good one. Although, I really enjoyed the Mortal Kombat movie (not Annihilation, the original). They're making a third now... As for G36Cs, they're become huge movie stars. They show up everywhere. Resident Evil, The Bourne Identity, dozens of others... the G36 and the Desert Eagle are now the biggest weapon movie stars.

Foxtrot Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 As long as they keep the story line to one sentence, it should be a pretty good action/horror movie (if done right.) But the story line cant go past this: Some one f'd up, and a mars base got taken over by demons, everyone but you is dead. That sums up doom 1 and doom 3. Doom 2 is a bit more complex, the took over earth. :\ I cant really think of any 'good' video game to movie translations. And only a few (recent) book to movie translations. Though, there are alot of good Movie to video game translations. (Duke Nukem anyone?) Link to post Share on other sites
ExaltedDragon45 Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 Duke Nuken was a movie first? Damn... And there are a few good movie licensed video games, you're right. Goldeneye, Return of the King, Star Wars:Knights of the Old Republic, to name a few. Everyone knows they're working on a Halo movie, right? God, I hope it's not awful...

SABRE100 Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 I don't think he was talking about licensed games, I thought he was talking more along the lines of the Star Wars ep3 game and the Willy Wonka game. Besides this movie reminds me a lot of Resident evil, close to the game but not close enough for hardcore fans... that and The Rock reminds me of the black guy in Resident evil very much. Back to the topic. It looks like they took the idea of the g36 and just made it bulkier and instead of the grenade launcher it looks like they put a rather large flash light in it.

Agent Hunk Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 I think you posted links to two different guns. But both based off the G36. Seeing the trailer is what wanted me to make my BFG G36 as you can see in a topc below here. But the first link is an assualt rifle while the bottom looks like a plasma rifle. And I dont think the movie looks bad. And there are no demons in the games. They are aliens. Link to post Share on other sites
ExaltedDragon45 Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 The Rock reminds me of the black guy in Resident evil very much. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hehe, you just talked like Jimmy from South Park very much. Link to post Share on other sites
Jules Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 All video game to movie (as well as movie to video game) transitions are godawful. I know, and there's a Hitman movie in the works starring Vin Diesel.. *sob* Link to post Share on other sites
ExaltedDragon45 Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Yeah, I read that. Incredibly disappointing. Now, if they cast Jason Statham it would have been perfect. Link to post Share on other sites
unimatrix001 Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 As for G36Cs, they're become huge movie stars. They show up everywhere. Resident Evil, The Bourne Identity, dozens of others... Resident Evil: G36K (without stock) + AG36 Bourne Identity = no G36s as far as I remebmer it; Bourne Supremacy = fullsize G36 The only movie I've ever seen a G36C in was Alien vs. Predator.

blam360 Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 The only movie I've ever seen a G36C in was Alien vs. Predator. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> bad boys II and collateral as well. Link to post Share on other sites
unimatrix001 Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 bad boys II and collateral as well. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ah you're right . I don't know collateral, but in bad boys 2 Martin Laurance uses a G36C with an Aimpoint. Link to post Share on other sites
