Eomer and The Rock are Doomed

Alrighty, my enthusiasim for this new Doom project is building up. I know a lot of people don�t like the fact that Dwayne Johnson (AKA The Rock) was cast for this flick, but I still think it was the best move they could make. The Rock has been good � very good in every film he�s been in so far. He�s got great charm and the build of an 80�s action hero. Add on top of this the fact that Karl Urban (Eomer in Lord of the Rings) is also signed up and you�ve got a pretty solid duo for the flick. Cinescape gives us the following:

After starring in two of Universal Pictures summertime films, Karl Urban (who also starred in the latter two LORD OF THE RINGS pictures) will receive another paycheck from the same studio for starring in DOOM along with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Urban, who appeared in THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK and THE BOURNE SUPREMACY this past summer, will play a futuristic special ops soldier named John Grimm in film adaptation of the popular id Software first-person shooter video game. Grimm confronts the demons unleashed from a scientific experiment on Mars that’s gone awry, and in the course of the film the character will also confront the organization that’s responsible for his parents’ death.

Don�t toss the idea of this movie just yet, I think they�ll do something great with it (then again, I thought The Phantom Menace was going to be the greatest film of all time).
