	.::ON-FILM.NET -- FILM REVIEW: "SUPERMAN/DOOMSDAY" By Gregg Bray (August 1, 2007)::.
		Doomsday’s exit from the story felt a bitabrupt, but it was still an excellent fight sequence.
		Having said that, there’s a moment in the film that showcases Lex shooting a character to death.
		Her best moment is at the end of the film, which is a quieter moment between her and Clark.

		This film provides a comprehensive view of the large numbers of nuclear weapons that remain in the United States and Russia a decade after the end of the Cold War.
		The film shows the American and Russian “missiliers” who are on duty 24 hours a day and are prepared to fire over 1200 nuclear weapons, the nuclear strategic plan coordinators, and the armed forces officers in charge of the nuclear weapon arsenals.
		The film attempts to show that America and Russia have excessive numbers of nuclear weapons at the ready, and levels of security demanded by politicians, not military officers.

		This wonderful film portrays Saddam Hussiens regime in its heyday, when it was not a pariah and the Americans supported it.

		Doomsday also grabs a lift on a departing shuttle and lands on the warrior planet, Khundia, in the next story, "...Some Say In Fire" by Louise Simonson (with art by Chris Batista and John Nyberg).
		Doomsday is apparently the catalyst for a united Khundia and their subsequent emergence as a galactic power.

	Greatest Disaster Film Scenes
		Films have often depicted large-scale natural disasters (weather-related usually) or man-made calamities (a wreck at sea, an airplane crash), often accompanied by massive crowd scenes.
		The focus of such films is on the spectacular calamity and a small group of people in imminent danger, and how they must cope or devise a method of escape.
		John Frankenheimer's prophetic film was about a former Vietnam POW who aligned with a terrorist group in a plot to kill thousands of people by loading a bomb on the Goodyear Blimp and exploding it over spectators during Miami's Super Bowl.

	I Am Vengeance - MeteorCity Record Label (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Released before the film's completion, this collection (to be followed later by a second volume on Game Two Records) is all the evidence a metal fan needs to show that Anasky's film is the first of its kind, a movie uniting both horror and the doom metal genre.
		Supporting a horror film, I Am Vengeance by Richard Anasky, the music is totally based on some of the most interesting bands of the scene and the songs seems to be so perfect for the soundtrack of a film like this.
		Doomsday Gouvernment is next with score mentor Dan Fondelius in the frontline with the title track I am Vengeance this marks the debut of this band that formed after Count Raven gaved up after a decade of doommayhem.

	Televising the End of the World (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Day After was the first television film to vividly depict the effects of nuclear war on the environment and health of the general population, and probably the most well publicized TV Movie event in history.
		The film is absent the special effects or sensationalism of The Day After and relies on a mother’s diary entries to document the tragedy of post-apocalyptic life in a small close-knit community.
		They believed that the graphic horrors of the film were a desperately needed message that would get viewers to put more pressure on their leaders to make a genuine commitment toward nuclear disarmament.

	The Crowd Roars: Books into Film #2
		young and handsome Gary Cooper, I was quickly drawn in to what turned out to be a quiet, brooding little film about a woman who betrays the man who has loved her but, when she realises her mistake, must work to redeem herself by slaving away for him on his beloved farm.
		Doomsday is based on the Warwick Deeping novel of the same name, published in 1927 and fits my "Books into Film" criteria because, although the moral was considered romantic and old fashioned even upon its release, both the book and film are filled with great little details that set the story firmly in its era.
		Doomsday wouldn't have been at the top of Deeping's achievements, but it's a nice little tale that I might not have picked up, had I not been so taken by the film.

	Doomsday Man (1998)
		The film starts out quite well, appearing to offer a complex non-linear plot, an unfolding mystery and a much greater emphasis on character-driven drama, which seems something quite unusual for a plague/biowarfare outbreak thriller like this.
		Moreover as the film goes on, it readily becomes apparent that it is a made on a low budget.
		Crucially for a film that purports to be a cross-country thriller, most of it gives the appearance of being shot along the same stretch of placid, rural backwater highway.

	Eye for Film : Doomsday (2008) Film Review
		Doomsday might be tribute or homage, but it feels too often like pastiche.
		If you like the post-apocalypse films of the Eighties and fancy seeing another one that just happens to have been made 19 years late, this is the film for you.
		Doomsday makes no effort to cater to those who aren't in on the joke, and spares no opportunity to pander to those who are guaranteed to like it.

	Aamir Khan Interview
		At first glance the films are almost diametric opposites: one is a period picture about poor villagers set in the 19th century, the other a contemporary urban drama about globe-trotting "Westernized" professionals.
		But both films took major technical and aesthetic risks, flouting long-standing Bombay conventions like looped echo-chamber dialog and piece-meal on-again-off-again shooting schedules (a practice that grew up in the 1970s to accommodate greedy stars, who routinely signed up to a dozen projects at once).
		In small towns there would be somebody's house with a little board outside that said the film starts at nine o'clock, and it would cost two rupees [five cents] to see the film on this guy's TV set.

	The World's Finest - DC Universe - Superman: Doomsday
		Of course that’s a strong reason for an animated film to be rated higher than it has to be, but this film really doesn’t take advantage of the extra room given to it.
		Doomsday’s appearance in Justice League was cool and a once one-dimensional comic book character was given a new life in later episodes of Justice League Unlimited when his origin was revealed.
		Still, watching Timm go back to Doomsday so soon and essentially re-trimming his character down again to a one dimensional killing machine makes me wonder how much pressure DC Comics was putting on the creative team to make the Doomsday story be the first of the mature animated ventures.

		It is 18 years since Schwarzenegger’s best film, The Terminator, and 11 years since his biggest hit, the $200 million grossing sequel, T2: Judgment Day.
		Schwarzenegger’s success - at the risk of oversimplifying something very simple - was a phenomenon of the Reagan years, when notions of societal breakdown, star wars, and enemies without loaned credence to the comic book material of Arnold’s oeuvre.

	Film Review: DOOMSDAY
		Between those two movies is Doomsday, a thriller that’s so haphazard in its construction, and so blatant in its dependence on previous films, that it functions less as a movie and more as the pitch meeting from which it was birthed.
		If there is a standout sequence from the film, it’s the moments when villain Sol treats his followers to a home-cooked meal: one of Sinclair’s team members.
		Doomsday’s ragtag clichés inspire little interest, and the film never moves beyond the sum of its parts.

		I am Vengeance is a mad film about David William Hughes a hallucinative psyched out character that transforms from being a happily content mamas boy to drug addict vengeance seeking self proclaimed prophet.

	“Doomsday” — A Movie Pulse Review - Slice of SciFi
		Speaking of development, whoever chopped down the theatrical release of Doomsday managed to dissect the film so that it is literally an hour and forty minutes of pure action.
		Another important element that seems to have been ripped out of this cut of the film was a love story shared between the team’s doctor and the young girl that hosts the cure, Cally.
		Aside from this brief shot that lasts for only a handful of seconds, the audience is expected to believe in their connection for the remainder of the film.

	Typotheque: Quick Cuts, Coarse Letters, Multiple Screens: by Steven
		Yet before he started designing film titles the Cuban born Ferro (b 1935), who had emigrated to New York City when he was twelve years old - and quickly became a huge film fan and aficionado of UPA cartoons - had earned a reputation for directing and editing scores of television commercials.
		He also created a multi-screen film for the Singer Sewing Machine pavilion at the New York World’s Fair that included two projectors playing in sync with each film using twelve separate images creating a multi-screen effect — the first time that this was accomplished with movie projectors.
		His next opening film title sequence did not materialize until 1966 when Norman Jewison hired him for The Russians are Coming, The Russians are Coming, a cold war comedy about a USSR “invasion” of America by a lone Russian submarine crew.

	Review: Doomsday Review - Film Junk
		Doomsday pays tribute to a genre that has always attracted a strong cult following, but little love from high-brow film afficionados.
		The film opens with a grim scene of panic and pandemonium as the army is trying to evacuate any non-infected people from the quarantine zone.
		This would have been a perfect film if they managed to get the story/emotion/pacing balance right (I’m thinking James Cameron as the benchmark for this type of thing), but as a huge love-letter to the genre (originality be damned!) along the lines of Grindhouse (in particular Planet Terror)…Marshall has nailed it.

	» Film Review: Doomsday (2008)
		The film launches with one of its best sequences, portraying the outbreak of the “Reaper” virus (whose bloody pustules suggest Poe’s “Red Death”), which leads to the quarantining of Scotland behind a massive metal wall.
		DOOMSDAY is a blast from the past, filled with familiar echoes that should please fans.
		Far from the frustrating set-ups in many Hollywood films (that simply cheat and leave the audience wanting more), DOOMSDAY takes Sinclair to a point that satisfies the needs of this film but leaves her poised for an encore that could be even bigger and better than the opening number.
