Sorry again, kiddo. The script writer started it with a R rating and never intended to do any different :P

WB wanted it to be rated PG-13, which would never become a reality!

Actually, Warner Bros just told him to write a script for it. After he did so, they told him to tone it down so it could be "a family film". And he told them to take a hike...So technically, it didn't start out as one, WB just try to force it on them rather early. Whether they intended it immediately or not, the writer wasn't given those instructions until after he wrote the script as requested ^_^

they didn't know??? Doom's one of the bloodiest games of all time! The genre 'first-person shooter' should have given them a clue...

it'd be like putting out an Alien vs Predator movie at anything other than an 18 rating! It just wouldn't happen!!

o, wait, they already did that... <_<

Remember the quote "All that is required for evil to prosper is for good men to do nothing." Production companies seeking to bring down the rating of movies like Doom and AVP are the perfect example of that. Although the evil has already been commited on AVP, I'm glad there will be a reprieve with the director's cut coming out soon enough. And the good men stood up to the evil with Doom and said "No longer!! No longer shall the evil executives rob the poor huddled masses of their right to witness acts of gratuitous violence!!" B)

someone should do it, and it's about time....

You quite clearly can't make these movies without focussing on what sold the games, or the original the others are based on... it's common sense.

Well, I guess we are talking about marketing people here...

Anyone recognisable from any recent movies? I'll admit I look at those names and get absolutely nothing :unsure:

yeah... me too. :wacko:

I reckon they're monster fodder, probably. No sooner do you learn their names than they're snapped up by a raging cacodemon... ^_^

Well, Karl Urban I can vouch for. He's a solid actor and has done a relatively good job in the roles I've seen him in. He played Eomer in Lord of the Rings, the bad guy in the Bourne Supremacy and one of the bad guys in Chronicles of Riddick. Even when the plot's been a little weak, he's still pulled off a good performance, so if Doom screws up, it won't be because of him.

Here's to hoping I didn't just jinx it for him :unsure:

Cow, it probably won't be that bad... maybe... :unsure:

Karl Urban can only be good for the movie. He's a great actor.
