I Am Doom....discuss me [merged-2]

[Mister Sinister]

I know. And why did Dew close down the Off-Topic thread? Shouldn't she have noticed that C.Lee posted NINE TIMES and didn't complain?

i think it was last night or this morning? i was thrown off when i logged on today and saw how the board was redecorated..

uh bump

 

[wetgorilla]

i'm wondering why this thread wasn't stickied along with the other character threads?

Because, unlike those other character threads, this thread stays on topic and provides more than just an environment involving fantatical praise for the actor/actress of other such characters.

We've been through this WG...and the other threads are just fine....she was giving this thread a compliment...so take it and move on.....theres no need to rehash old debates....we do that way too much around here...

 

[surfergirl]

like Kel said i was paying this thread a compliment, which is why i wondered why it wasn't stickied...

 

[Kelly]

And by the way those "other threads" actually allow "all" to participate with out being called "stupid" and "sheep".....which to me is a good thing...to some i guess not...

How was wondering why a thread wasn't stickied equate to a compliment? And I think Albafan should let you respond for yourself or at least wait until your response has been posted.

because the discussion of Doom in this thread warranted it a place at the top of the board with the rest of the character threads IMO

Who has called others 'stupid' or 'sheep' on this thread? I believe you might be painting with too broad of a brush stroke. From my recollection, H.L. was the only person who has ever used the term 'sheep' and he used it as a metaphor for individuals who were parroting rather than debating and had spat out equally generalized terms.

On the other hand, your claim that those 'other threads' actually allow 'all' to participate is only half true. If someone posts a viewpoint opposite to the opinions held by the consensus of the individuals who buzz around those threads, they're met with a strong rebute. Then, if an individual engages in debate, they're labeled a 'troll'. So, please - don't try to raise those 'other threads' to any higher level than any other thread on the forum.

I can see this and others can also. But then again, many people aren't aware of their own misbehavings when its met with approval from their own particular circle.

Thanks for the response, SG. That's all I was looking for. I was under the impression a 'stickie' was a bad thing. Tell me more about these, 'stickies', please. I don't see what you're talking about on the main boards.

this morning all of the character threads were stickied at the top of the forum, and everything was rearranged for some reason. i was surprised to see that this thread was not stickied along with the other character threads when it rightly should have been. since you weren't on earlier when all of that was going on i could see where the misunderstanding may have taken place with this face at the end of my earlier post. i hope that clears it up for you.

Actually those character threads run fine,Everyone is welcome,whether they like the actors or not.The only thing that gets people annoyed is when someone comes in posting things like "alba T3H sux" or suggests another actress for the role which is stupid since the movie is now completed.As for you not calling people sheep ? perhaps not but you have an entire thread devoted to you throwing degrading insults.

Ummm yeah ok..... Well i guess that is something we will never agree on....and this has been discussed before....so i'll move on w/ an we disagree thats ok.....and allow this thread to get back to doom....

oooh and i'm sorry...gotta laugh at that last statement....thats just funny...

 

[Franklin Richards]

I really liked Julian's delivery on the lines

"Right on cue."

and

"This is what a man looks like who embraces his destiny."

 

[Nancy-Twin]

Ditto, except the "Right on Cue" line scared the **** outta me cuz, damn he looks crazy/creepy just like Doom should. AND the in the trailer he looks like Doom when he has the rocketblaster and is firing it, that just really screamed out to me DOOM!

 

[Head>On<Collider]

I thought the trailer was somewhat dissapointing, but I think this movie will be more reliant on the bigger picture rather than each individual scene..... Just a few more weeks and then we'll see.

You and your comments speak for themselves, Hunter. When have suggestions on this forum warrant an individual being called stupid? Oh, I forgot! When Hunter Rider deems it so. It's pretty clear you're one of those individuals I was thinking of when I responded to Albafan.

As for the thread I started a long time ago (and you came in and attacked people not perspectives) that was devoted for gripes against the movie not throwing insults at you or anyone one else. The only one who's ever thrown insults at people for having opinions opposite their own concerning this movie have been yourself and a small band of your buddies, Junior. Your posting here once again underscores my point.

You're so predictable.

LOL so you didnt make all those dispariging remarks about Lightnin,you didnt treat Kel like something you stepped in.Be aware of one thing here bigshot,We all know what you are about,your very clever and yet as transparent as a dish of water.I tell you what PM C Lee or Dew and put my record of attacking people on this forum up against yours and see who has the better reputation as a good and respectful poster.As for my comments in your thread,If you read what i said to you in it,i merely asked why you were so unpleasent about the other side of the coin in your opening volley,My only "attack" on you was to say you were stuck in the 60's,now go read what you said to Lightnin and kel in that thread and then get back to me

 

[wetgorilla]

IMO the trailer was weak and typical. I was hoping this theatrical trailer would bring something new and prove my doubts wrong - unfortunately it didn't.

I wasn't expecting to see anything other than what I've read in my brief encounters with this script - seeing Evans' portrayal of Johnny was a little distracting. He seems he would be more at home in a Fast & Furious sequal than in this role (But, that's partially due to the dialog provided to him) and I didn't like his buzzed haircut.

Although, Doom is portrayed as a renegade and thrown in a 'Hollow Man'/Kevin Bacon role I do think they edited the trailer well enough to stir up some interest. Unfortunately the Star Wars crowd that filled both audiences (I saw it twice) just sat quit and snickered after the FF trailer was shown. The only smile and positive appraisal I found after the trailer were from a grade school kid, two old guys sitting up front and (surprisingly) my girlfriend. LOL

I agree....I think given the right material to work with, people who disparaged Julian McMahon's casting may change their tune. I like that he has dialed it down a bit to be quiet, controlled and menacing.... not an over the top ranting loony. The only concern I have is whether or not his lines are up to Doom's usual standard. As I have said before, I find it ironic that a movie has to be "dumbed down" for the movie going audience whereas in the comics, Doom has much more complex dialogue (to wit my signature below as an example).

I could definitely see that in a sequel...talking like that as an exec...hmmm not sure....and YES I understand that being an exec...is certainly not what many of you wanted for Doom....but I could definitely see him coming back full on with kind of dialogue IM....definitely

Junior, you should learn to leave others out of your discussions. I've already settled things with those two individuals and don't feel like rehashing old issues with them. On the other hand, your attacks on that thread were anything but how you try and portray them. They were personal, unprovoked, malicious and targeted.

As for lining up our records on the number of personal and unprovoked attacks on individuals you would have more than double the amount I could ever hope to have listed. I've searched through most of your records and gave up count after 100!

Excellent point. I think Julian's appearance and acting would make for a good Doom. It's the dialog given to him that may 'Doom' his portrayal! LOL
