Doom Annihilation (2019) is the latest film adaptation of the Doom video game franchise, surpassing the previously instalment Doom (2005) in terms of awfulness and doing nothing to further the reputation of video game movies. With a terrible script, laughable dialogue, wooden acting, plot holes, and an obviously cheap design, it does little to endear itself to fans of the franchise, and is one best left either ignored or ridiculed.
Guess which one I did.

I don't understand how it can be so hard to make a Doom movie, it's very simple. Just take John Wick, give him a massive suit, color correct the movie to red, replace the humans with demons, have a metal soundtrack, you are done.

[@BlackstarSI]

[@STOKERMATHALLAN]

John Wick must have Blazkowicz blood

[@asher8754]

But they fail at even that. Doom 3 had atmosphere and suspense and genuinely decent creature designs. This movie is like a kid friendly version of doom 3 and the first doom movie was just some lame sci fi channel movie with doom slapped on it. I honestly don’t know what’s worse the one that uses more creatures and weapons but fucks up the plot, or the one that keeps the overall plot(demons instead of mutant) but fucks up everything else.

[@lordglitch4266]

"Because this is a horror movie, remember" And that's the main problem, DOOM isn't really a horror series! Like sure, it can be scary, but it's not really horror at all, it's an ACTION game, and Doomguy specifically is the most horrifying thing about the series, demons are scared of HIM, not the other way around

It's actually physically impossible for a fusion reactor to explode. From Wikipedia: _Unlike nuclear fission, fusion requires extremely precise and controlled temperature, pressure and magnetic field parameters for any net energy to be produced. If a reactor suffers damage or loses even a small degree of required control, fusion reactions and heat generation would rapidly cease. Additionally, fusion reactors contain only small amounts of fuel, enough to "burn" for minutes, or in some cases, microseconds. Unless they are actively refueled, the reactions will quickly end. Therefore, fusion reactors are considered immune from catastrophic meltdown._ _For similar reasons, runaway reactions cannot occur in a fusion reactor. The plasma is burnt at optimal conditions, and any significant change will simply quench the reactions. The reaction process is so delicate that this level of safety is inherent. Although the plasma in a fusion power station is expected to have a volume of 1,000 cubic metres (35,000 cu ft) or more, the plasma density is low and typically contains only a few grams of fuel in use. If the fuel supply is closed, the reaction stops within seconds. In comparison, a fission reactor is typically loaded with enough fuel for several months or years, and no additional fuel is necessary to continue the reaction. It is this large amount of fuel that gives rise to the possibility of a meltdown; nothing like this exists in a fusion reactor._

Funniest part of this: They claim that Phobos is called the "doomed moon" because it's an "unstable environment." They're trying to make it sound like a SUPER HARDCORE and DANGEROUS environment. It's actually called the "doomed moon" because its getting closer to Mars at a rate of 1.8 cm a year and will crash into the planet in about 50 million years. So...I guess it's "unstable" if you're talking about a 50-100 million year timeframe but that doesn't actually seem like the biggest danger in the world to me.

Let's be honest, Doom is not the best vehicle for a movie franchise. Which makes it fun to imagine adaptations of, but a nightmare to actually adapt. On the other hand, the gratuity of the violence and lack of a traditional plot could actually prove liberating to better filmmakers to make it there own. By which I mean the franchise could (in theory) be turned into a successful gory comedy in the style of army of darkness just as well as into a visceral action movie in the style of john wick or the raid.But for it you'd have to fill in the blanks with something worthwhile.

"it's a video game adaptation" is not an excuse anymore, Castlevania has had three excellent seasons of tv on netflix that manage to make a genuinely compelling story out of an NES game with incredible action and animation, with enough differences from the original story to keep it fresh for people that already know the story, and just enough tasteful fanservice to make anyone who's played the games before to get just an extra bit more out of the experience. It's been done before, it can be done again, I'm just not quite sure when more studios will let people who are both talented and passionate about the source material make these adaptations.

[@fightingmedialounge519]

Passion can lead to close minded approach. Just look at last airbender.

Detective Pikachu was able to do its own thing while still working as a Pokemon story. Sonic The Hedgehog was actually kind of fun due to you not needing to be "in the know" on sonic lore to understand it, and knowing the lore just gives you extra bits of enjoyment (like how the tribe that attacked longclaw at the start of the movie was most likely the Knuckles Clan). There just isn't an excuse anymore.

[@fischeborne9713]

Can we settle for people who are willing to read, and use the source material instead? I've learned over the years, that just because you're passionate, doesn't mean you're going to do right by every other fan out there.

This is exactly what I was saying by the end of it.

There's other ways to keep a movie interesting. Especially cause doom was always a solo experience anyway. This movie couldn't decide if it had a main character or not for the first two thirds

Shows how much the marines and protagonist of this one must suck at fighting. And yet no other enemies besides Zombies and Imps show up in this game. They could've added Cacodemons and Pinkies and Revenants and maybe a battle at the end with a Cyberdemon.

Yeah wouldn't it either just turn into a bigger star/reaction or collapse into a black hole? My knowledge is very basic but how can a ball of hot plasma melt down,into what?

[@wanderinghistorian]

@@dun0790 Hello other Jason. It's important to realize that, as of now, artificial fusion reactors don't exist. They are purely theoretical, and some scientists doubt we could ever produce one. The only natural ones in existence are stars. Fusion is so hard to pull off, that if power to a reactor did fail, the reactor would just turn off and the gas would cool. No meltdown, no explosion. Fission reactors, however, are powered by the fissile materials (uranium, plutonium) themselves. The fuel rods generate the energy naturally and this energy is focused and harnessed by the reactor chamber which is full of things like neutron reflectors and control rods that assist in this process. The heat from the fuel turns water into steam which turns a generator to make electricity. If a reactor loses power, it means the workers can no longer manipulate the core via those control rods, etc. and the fuel can start producing more and more heat unchecked until the fuel is so hot it melts (a meltdown) through the core and into the ground, corrupting it with radiation. This is what happened at Chernobyl, where they intentionally did this to test the reactor at very low power. Unfortunately they went too far, made mistake after mistake, and the fuel became so hot so fast that it vaporized the water causing a steam explosion. The reactor was totally exposed to the open air and the fuel melted down, causing a massive release of radiation. It's a fascinating thing to study, but it's by no means the only nuclear accident. I highly recommend the KZbinr Plainly Difficult who has a lot of videos on nuclear accidents. This is why fusion reactors are the goldilocks of energy. They are perfectly clean, produce wicked amounts of energy, and are basically completely safe. It's also probably a pipe dream, sadly.

@@wanderinghistorian why am i always the other jason even in my reply anyway thanks for the explanation mate good job my small mind actually understood it.....i think lol shame about it being a pipe dream the thing that always mystified me was how would you control the reaction wouldn't you need enormously powerful magnets that could move stars?

Forced to fight countless of hellspawn with limited resource and survivor to protect. Then when all hope is gone, Doomguy arrives and saves the day.

Funfact: A fusion reactor would not destroy anything if shut down. In fact, as soon as its hull is damaged or it gets no energy anymore, the plasma cools down to room temperature and that's it. The only danger a fusion reactor would pose would either be a leak (however, that would lead to the plasma cooling down immediately and would only be a problem in close proximity and only for a short amount of time), or when you eventually have to remove the worn down heat protection that has become slightly radioactive (about 2 or 3 times as much as a banana) due to being bombarded by the remnants of atoms undergoing nuclear fusion.

[@Wyattporter]

The issue with making a DOOM movie is that the game does not focus on telling a story. It has one, it has extremely deep lore, but it doesn’t tell it to you, it gives you pages to read. The game is about gameplay, not story. If it were true to the game, it’d be almost boring, just watching the Doom Slayer run around while the characters talk exposition at the audience.

[@getschwifty5537]

The only compelling plot I could think of would be to revolve it around the efforts of a resistance group on Earth after a Hell invasion trying to shepherd a group of survivors to safety. Doom Guy is present but as a prolific figure that's off fighting his own battles and is hardly even aware of the regular humans in his shadow. He's the eye candy between the struggles of our regular human protagonist to both survive and get the job done. So you have the protagonist be both personally inspired by Doom Guy's willpower, as well as formulate a plan to follow as closely on Doom Guy's heels as possible without drawing too much attention. Cause think of it, the Slayer's missions on Earth in Eternal have him primarily in demon hotzones. Proximity to Doom Slayer is both the worst place you can be as a regular human and the best place. Heavy demon activity but they're all focused on him. He's the one man army taking up all of Hell's attention. So what if some regular soldiers decided to piggyback on that and carry out crucial operations while being indirectly covered by the Slayer's rampage? That way you get a compelling human drama, a horror/thriller experience because even if you make the protagonist pretty capable against demons it'll still be like a "one wrong move and you're dead" situation as they very carefully navigate Hellified Earth, and an action spectacle when the protagonists find themselves directly witnessing Doom Guy's demon genocide for a moment while dealing with their own troubles. But of course such a movie would need a very competent and inspired director, and a really damn good budget.

[@Wyattporter]

David Lopez and I’m sure at least a few people would be disappointed that the Doomguy isn’t the main protagonist. He’s a player insert, not a compelling character. It’d be hard to make a movie that’s true to the game and interesting.

They would do what is called right seat left seat where they first observe the other guys doing their job (right seat) then they do the job while the other team observe and assist if needed (left seat). At this time they would go over that stuff but seeing as they likely didn't expect an invasion as they are on a moon orbiting mars and would be more concerned with inner security that's questionable. What would make much more sense is that they would know about an emergency entrance/exit because it is a space dock and they would be built with those things. You don't need some grand explanation as to how they know something that should be present is present. There is probably even some signs and arrows seeing it is an emergency entrance/exit and those things typically are required to have signs and be lighted so they are easy to find.

The fusion reactor on the unstable moon is pretty safe if it was conventional reactor it will be another story. Fusion reactors are pretty safe, they are propelled by plasma, the thing is if you disrupt the plasma field the process stops, and there is no risk of meltdown as the plasma is essentially super heated gas to a liquid stream contained by an electromagnetic field, but even a slight temperature change will turn the plasma into gas again and the gas wont explode the process can be maintained under very specific condition, a quote from ITER (an European fusion reactor project) FAQ ion the safety, specifically explosion: In a tokamak fusion device, the quantity of fuel present in the vessel at any one time is sufficient for a few-seconds burn only. It is difficult to reach and maintain the precise conditions necessary for fusion; any disruption in these conditions and the plasma cools within seconds and the reaction stops, much in the same way that a gas burner is extinguished when the fuel tap is turned off.
