DOOM The Movie Wrapped

37
So the fabled DOOM movie (details here) that everyone thought would never get made is actually done. According to 'The Rock' who was on The Daily Show yesterday the movie actually just recently wrapped. The movie is slated to be released this August once post-production is completed. A couple of folks mentioned this, firstly as Jack put it so kindly

- Jack: "Hey <deleted>, The Rock just mentioned on the daily show last night that Doom just wrapped production (and he's in it)"
- Dynamo gives the alert!

It's always good news when Jack calls me a dirty name.

Steve Gibson is the cofounder of Shacknews.com. Originally known as sCary's Quakeholio back in 1996, Steve is now President of Gearbox Publishing after selling Shacknews to GameFly in 2009.

      He apparently knows more about it than The Rock, too. The Rock apparently thought that the plasma gun had been renamed the BFG in the movie.

          maybe, but blown out of proportion. Stewart was like "oh man when you get the plasma gun and start shootin stuff..." and Rock said "oh it's not a plasma gun now... bio force gun" and "ohh yeah, I get to use the Big FG!"

          The best part is how Stewart is like Phil or something. He loves videogames I guess! "not that I stay up until 4am playing video games... because I have a child... and uh..."

      Yes. And I bet you could play multiplayer with him, too.


      If anyone ever played multiplayer.
