This exchange is funny to me personally. I would much rather discuss Doom however, so I'll let this guy say what he wants.

1. Doom's in a relationship with Sue to show just how shallow and competitive he really is. it sets up the enmity between he and Reed. that and it gives you a convenient reason for Sue being on the ship with all of them. it's Doom's space station and she's 'his girl.'
2. Joker courted Vicki Vale in the '89 version of Batman
3. Rachel wasn't really a love interest. she was Bruce's conscience and an old friend (supposedly a good deal older than him).
4. Crane wasn't in love with Rachel because he's intimidated by powerful women. she was a powerful woman he wanted to conquer; hence the flaming horse stunt at the end. Doom doesn't have that problem.
5. Luthor(brains) and Superman(brawn) aren't competitors the way Reed(brains) and Doom(brains) are. so, if Lois is attracted to Superman, it's a huge stretch to see her attracted to Lex. Reed and Doom are more similar; one's just more of a bstard.
6. Daredevil was a horrible movie that should have never been a love story.

You're fine with cosmic rays giving people the ability to stretch, turn invisible and start on ****ing fire and fly.
And yet you're worried about something that is conceivably within the realm of possibility?
Just to add...

We will get more comic Doom elements in F4:2 and then with a little luck, we will get a Dr. Doom solo film. What a great way to show the history of the man, the gypsies, a plan against the F4, a typical day in Latveria. All kinds of good stuff.

honestly, did you guys expect them to faithfully retell Doom's quest to free his accused witch mother's soul from a nether-dimension, his trip to ESU, and his journey into the mountains where he met some crazy cult and became Doom? that would have taken up just as much, if not more, time than Bruce Wayne's shortened origin in Batman Begins. and for what? he's just the bad guy. you still have to introduce and make people love the Fantastic Four. remember them? maybe Fantastic Four was just the wrong movie to bring to the big screen. perhaps they should have gone with the Submariner. guh.
Spider-Fan930 said:You know your right. I shall stay on topic. This series of posts has been pointless and rather unneccessary.
Sardaukar said:No.
I don't expect a perfect retelling of Doom's origin. You don't have include all that in order to remain true to the character. But also, there's no need to actually add a whole bunch of stuff (i.e. romantic triangles) that wasn't there to begin with.
Spider-Fan930 said:Burn scars cannot be healed in many cases, and these are what Doom suffered. Could you build armor by the way? I bet not, so shut up. Your point about that was stupid. If anything, more people could run a country then a build a sophisticated armor like that. Get YOUR facts straight, little man.

Back to the issue at hand... that was deservedly cold.![]()
Spider-Fan930 said:Thanks.
Herr Logan said:EDIT: Now that I've been shown the mature and effective way to make things happen... Hold my Gatorade. thats not a request, thatsa DEMAND!![]()

Spider-Fan930 said:LOL, that was a good edit. When you put it like that, I think I'll hold that Gatorade *reaches out and grabs Gatorade*.
Sardaukar said:Kurosawa, Herr...
These newbies are killing me.
And that makes post 1000.
Dr.Crazy said:Gatorade?! Gatorade?! Please, what you need is coffee is regenerate your argument skills.
Herr Logan said:Coffee is too bitter for my delicate tastes, and one thing my arguments certainly don't lack is bitterness. Am I right, people?
