yeh...Karl Urban...Eomer from LOTR...forgot what he was in Riddick...

the only good thing out of Doom was "some" action and monster sequences and the BFG...even the first-person sequences like in the game sucked...really sucked...and the music sucked donkey balls...

The basic thing about the Doom games has been survival...you are alone with monsters around, you have the guns, now survive...but the movie sucked because never ever did I get the feel that there was only one character, and he had to survive all alone...at least if they followed that plotline and let Sarge(Rock) be alone and fight it out, maybe that would have made for more interesting viewing...

(remember the end sequence of Predator?)
