[fandom] Doom & Vampire Academy

Mar 23, 2008 00:29

You know, The Rock is no Vin Diesel, but he's looking pretty hot in Doom. Also, Karl Urban as Reaper is hottie mchot. This movie is much more fun than I expected, down to some of the moral questions and the way various people deal with them.

I'm enjoying this way more than I thought. I mean, I knew I'd have fun, because this combines two things I love, cheesy horror and video game movies, but wow. So much better.

I started reading Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead today. It's -- well, it's a little odd. I hope to have more thoughts later.

ETA: Watching the bonus features reminds me how sad I am that I can't play first person video games. I blame the vertigo (considering no one can figure out why I have it, it's easy to blame for such things), but I just can't do it. Just watching the brief clips in the extras is making my world spin, and the scenes in the movie which do it almost made me have to shut it off so I wouldn't fall over.

Most of the good horror games I find are first person, and it breaks my heart.
