That's becuase DOOM had very little story. A movie needs a story; a game, not so much.

And they removed all of the game's actual story, too.

Are hell-spawned demons not PC, or something?

Hell DOOM 3 removed the orginal DOOM story in order to seem simular to the movie.

In general, I'm a huge fan of Sci-Fi movies, I love them no matter how horrible they are, usually.

This one...well I didn't mind it, but even I can see beyond my Sci-Fi bias and see that this movie is not exactly what I'd call good. Someone who isn't like me and doesn't love Sci-Fi would probably not like this movie at all.

That isn't to say it didn't have it's good points; after all, I'd have watched this movie for Milla Jovovich if nothing else

Though I must say, she was about the only thing worth seeing in this movie; it was fairly forgettable.

3/10...and that's only because of Jovovich!!

Really not a good movie. Lots of plot holes and I just felt sorry for poor old STIFF Harrison Ford. I would only watch this movie if it were for free, which it was.

Went and saw Superman Returns the other day. Word of advice: don't take a 5 year old with you when you do. The movie is 2 1/2 hours long, and that's too long for a young child like mine. As far as the movie went, I thought it was great. Thank goodness Singer decided to base this movie only on I & II, instead of just adding to the franchise. I won't give a major surprise away, because I heard it on both the radio and tv before I went & saw it and I don't want to spoil anyone else's entertainment. I thought Kevin Spacey made a great Lex Luthor; I think he even outdid Gene Hackman. Of course the special effects were much better than they were 20+ years ago, and they are impressive. Now we know what it looks like when Superman has to save a falling airplane, as has had to do too many times in the comics. Brandon Routh does look at times like Chris Reeve, but don't let that distract you. He has every bit of a right to be on-screen as his predecessor did. Can't wait for the inevitable sequel. I wonder who'll the bad guy will for that one? I'm hoping it's brainiac, as I don't think we've ever seen him on film (other than the cartoon series).

Did they have a giant spider? That is all I want to know.

My youngest son just bought the Firefly lst (and only)season cds and the movie Serenity. ah... watched it all in 2 days, even tho I saw some of them before, I was able to watch the entire show from the lst episode to the last and the movie which was the ending. D.... Fox for taking off a darn good series. I do hear that the Sci fi channel and fox are talking about brining it back with the original actors, don't know if thats true or not.. but it would be great IMHO
