(Way OT) WOOOOT DOOM THE MOVIE!

[Captain Kwok]

Wow, yet another movie based on a video game. Should be an excellent movie.

[Azselendor]

From what i've read on the Doom movie early last year, they've scaled it back due to threats from christian conservative groups and anti-game violence groups. Since the game was tied to the Columbine fiasco, and features a ton of satanic overtones, no studio was willing to touch the first couple of scripts until it was 'cleaned up' and 'sanitized' for more moral audiences.

What I find humorous about the whole thing is that even if they kept the satanic and violence, most of the people objecting to it wouldn't see it. And even now, most still won't see it.

Im probably going to go see it, despite all the stupid changes they've made. I just wish it was the way it is supposed to be, with demons and without stupid mutation viruses.

[Atrocities]

I would have rather they had chosen Vin Deasel but The Rock will do as well.

[Instar]

yeah, Vin plays DnD, so he's knows nerd stuff.

Why would people object to shooting demons?

[Azselendor]

Who knows, these are the same people that think it's better to keep a brain-dead person, with no chance of recovery, alive for years artificially at taxpayer expense because they think people can only die when it's a natural death.

I swear... these people are smoking some seriously good stuff we don't know about.

People object to the depiction of the demons themselves, and not the goal of the game which is to destroy them utterly and violently as possible.

And Klvino, let's not bring that up here.
