Whew! Breathe Easier! DOOM is further away! It's Still Coming, Just Later This Year!

Hey folks, Harry here with good news. How is DOOM moving further away good news? Well it's fairly logical, you'll see. For this film to hit on August 5th - and for there to be no trailers and really no signs of promotion, it would mean - to me anyways - that it was a film that the studio wasn't behind. However, this move seems to be a good sign to me, because... it means they've probably seen a rough assembly and see that it has more potential. My biggest freak out about this film was the insane rush they put on it. Here... hopefully they'll have the post time to make the monsters kick ass. Please tell there's monsters.

The Universal Pictures web site has changed the release date of the upcoming movie adaptation of id Software's Doom game from Aug. 5 to Oct. 21. For more info go to Click here!
