The Official Doomsday Thread

[thorstone]

I think it would require a trilogy to involve Darkseid in Doomsday's arrival on Earth so the easiest explanation I can think of is Doomsday being born from the rock Superman took into space at the end of Returns. His blood + the crystals + the kryptonite x crashing to Earth = Superman Dead.


As I suggested in my Justice League thread on the Superman Returns Sequels board http://www.superherohype.com/forums/showthread.php?t=249330
I think the following picture is how Doomsday should be realized. I'd imagine him as an elemental character-- like Sandman and Swamp Thing.

I think the following picture also gets at what I would want from Doomsday:

The next picture was a concept for Burton's Doomsday. Thank god that never happened.

hmmm... a villain who doesn't want to sell real estate?

nevah

 

[Joker]

that's all Zod is going to do in the new one...sell real estate and low low prices, driving all of his competition out of buisness in a bid to take over the real estate market and then...THE WORLD

 

[CConn]

Not just the world, but the whole of Planet Houston itself.

 

[Mentok]

New Villian....

Yeah, thank god we didn't get that. Who would want to see an amazing looking Super-villian fighting against Superman when we can see Superman getting his butt kicked by Kumar and a bald mannequin that looked like Kevin Spacey.

Oh ****, you're talking about originality... I don't know if I'm ready for that yet... Let's just keep redoing donner's movies.

It's funny though how everyone rips Burton and his concepts, but everything was imaginative and original.

I long for the days of giant spiders and gay robots....at least it was original.

 

[The Kid]

I'd take ANYTHING

but superboy

Or you could have Mongul show up (since he's in the game) with New Krypton turned into Warworld, try to recruit Supes, and when that fails he creates Doomsday from blood he draws from Supes in his escape, and save Darkseid for a Justice League movie.

Actually, slap some spikes on that bad boy, and I think that concept might be salvageable. It's certainly the only one of any designs connected with Burton's movie I've seen that I like.

Hey guys!

I don't think Doomsday would work in a movie where he was the only villain. I mean hes little more than a walking plot device.

I am still confused at how they will handle a sequel to SR, because everything setup in SR was atrocious and you have to imagine a large percentage of that will follow on into the sequel.

I still would love to see a 60-storey Metallo on the big screen.

I'd maybe try and ignore as much of the first as possible.

Have Lex inherit Lexcorp (?) and use the kryptonian tech to build Metallo. So we have Metallo vs. Superman in the first sequel.

He integrates the Kryptonian tech into all Lexcorp computers. The tech becomes self-aware (Robot Brainiac, in the second sequel).

Then Brainiac possesses Lex to give us Lexiac (who looks like the alien Brainiac). Lexiac summons Doomsday to kill Superman in the third sequel. We also get a Lex vs. Brainiac mental duel - akin to the Clark vs. Superman fight in SIII. Lex is able to defeat Brainiac.

Superman is killed, but wakes (in the 4th sequel) on Apokalips (Hell). So we get introduced to Darkseid. On Earth Lex becomes president, as a number of fake Supermen arise (like Cyborg, Steel, Eradicator etc.) Superman is able to defeat Darkseid and return to Earth (with help from a motherbox given to him by Mister Miracle).

The fifth sequel involves not only Superman dealing with the fake Supermen, but also with Gog.

The sixth sequel has Darkseid invade Earth. President Lex releases Doomsday to aid Superman against Darkseid. Darkseid beats Superman but is overconfident and gets stomped by Doomsday. Superman then takes Doomsday out of the city to avoid more collateral damage. Lex nukes the both of them (just to be sure) but many innocent lives are spilled by the blast (including the parents of a young boy who would go on to become Gog). Superman and Doomsday are relatively unscathed by the blast, Superman then uses the motherbox to transport Doomsday to the end of time.

Wait a minute here. Imagination and cool stuff doesn't belong anywhere in a Singer Superman.

Luthor will just do something with kryptonite and some land.

 

[Hades]

Sexy, naked, and best of all FREE.

just as god intended him to be. If doomsday is as evil as he is said to be, he would have raped superman with his gigantic scaley penis, in front of everybody.
Evil, pfft.

 

[aroundthefur33]

i would agree more than one movie for doomsday and darkseid

 

[super-t]

yes all you would have to do to burtons doomsday is put spikes on him, remove the robot stuff, and put long raveged hair on it and its perfect to me.

 

[thorstone]

The concept from Burton's project has a gun on it's arm, it's more reptilic than inorganic matter, and the head is too beastial.

Mongul is too much like Darkseid-- I'd rather just have Darkseid.

 

[TripXyDE]

I'm really into the concept of Doomsday from the JLU animated series

Doomsday as a weapon for the shadow government. a clone of Superman, only, one which has been enhanced by further mutation

 

[JayKay]

Does anyone actually like Superman Returns in this forum? I just see a lot of people with grudges...

I guess that puts me in the minority, being as I went to see it twice, but then I thrive on that.

 

[Tojo]

I would have Doomsday, Braniac and of course Lex as the villains for the sequel;

Doomsday was genetically engineered by someone with the financial backing of Lex, who oversaw the whole thing in an attempt to get rid of Superman. Lex is being controlled by Braniac and then Superboy, uh i mean Superman has a dust up with Doomsday.

Some other stuff happens too

Don't know what will happen to Jason.

 

[explode7]

DOOMSDAY!!!?!?!?!?!?? Are u people crazy??? The fans cant seem to detach from the donner world. You want them to get a heart attack???

 

[BrollySupersj]

I would like Singer to do Doomsday like Mark Steven Johnson is doing Blackheart in Ghost Rider. You keep some of the original look, but throw something new in.

 

[WhatsHisFace]

Doomsday was just a walking plot device to get Superman killed so DC could sell comics.

 

[super-t]

speaking of doomsday i am makin a trailer with him in it

 

[dark_b]

i think we will see singer remaking hes own movie than having doomsday.
