I’m more pissed that my 360 Elite overheats after 15min !!! I spent $400 bucks and all I have left is the 120Gb hard-drive…

Booo China! You suck !!!! Cheap parts !!!

The first Riddick game was a masterpiece.

I use the 360, but my Elite went south on me, I’m debating sending it in for repair or just buying a Core system.

The 360 version has both the new Riddick game and the “Escape from Butchers Bay” complete with updated graphics.
I’ll prob hold off on this,,,

I don’t get it: We can probably agree that Venom/Eddie Brock, one of the most popular comic book villians ever, was horribly miscast in SM3. So now… let’s just do it again? Similarly, if Spider-Man was played by a black or “mixed” actor people would be outraged. Why is it cool to reverse the races one way but not the other? Why can’t we just stick the very basics of comic book characters?

Agreed.

I don’t get it…. well two things:

(1) Are their only two people that care about Dr. Doom’s character from a fan perspective? All I hear is ‘accents’ and Diesel is ‘too bulky’.

How about the fact that Doom’s intellect is considered to rival Tony Stark’s and Reed Richards – making him one of the smartest men on the planet. When, has Vin Diesel ever succeeded in portraying that his character has above average intelligence?

The only time I’ve seen his acting work is when he plays a brute. If he could pull off being a cold, calculating, sinisterly intuitive mastermind I would say nominate him for an Oscar.

(2) In the respect of being a fan, what is it with changing the race of a character being acceptable when it is from white to something else? Dr. Doom and Namor are Caucasian in appearance, Diesel is not. From the very onset the character is being done injustice.

I just don’t get it. The majority would be upset if War Machine was made white or if they redo Spawn and make him white but people are excited by the idea of Captain America being played by Will Smith or Wonder Woman by Beyonce (both rumors, thank goodness) and likewise the comic book properties of Doom or Namor being played by Vin Diesel….

I though the Kingpin being black undermined the very foundations of his character and I didn’t see the point, they did nothing with changing his race.

Why? If you’re not comic book fans then I understand why you wouldn’t care but if you are, why do you support changing the very essence of characters from the onset?

Going back to my Captain America example: I always found in meaningful that Steve Rogers had blonde hair and blue eyes because the Nazi’s were being fought by what they considered to be ‘perfect’. I don’t know if that was the intent of the writers but I enjoyed it and to me that gave it more meaning.

Tell you what… let’s write Marvel and ask them to get Tom Cruise to play the Black Panther (my real pick would be Djimon Honshu).

Bane in a batman film? I think that could work quite well.

No to Doom & Sub-mariner for him.

The rest of Vin’s filmography doesn’t do it for me.

Well,,,Knockaround Guys was ok,,,

Sub-Mariner? Well, I’ve never seen Vin with much hair. Even in Boiler Room he didn’t have much. Sub-Mariner doesn’t have much hair but more that what i’ve seen Vin with. Of course, in the beginning of Riddick, he had long hair but he looked strange.

Get that project to ICON productions and have Mel Gibson direct using those Genesis cameras he used for Apocalypto, now that is the definition of epic!
