    Yeah I agree. Got to wonder what Doom's plan was. I mean he got the board right at the end of the world. Then you expect him to make some bargain with Galactis or something, but instead he literally just sort of stands around looking dumb until combo-Torch rolls up and beats him sideways.
    He smashed a few buildings, sure. But it would have been nice if he'd scored the board a little sooner and actually did something before it was knocked out of his grasp.
    Still, he was great, guy plays a natural bad guy, and I'd love to see him back for part 3.

      Doom was not badass in this movie, he was pointless in this movie. They should've left him out, and saved him for a third installment.

        Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with johnnyz-2. Doom was a waste of space in this film, though I may be a bit biased because he was given the crappiest, corniest dialogue and I don't think Julian McMahon was a good fit for the role. I was hoping for a break from him in this film with the belief they could always bring him back later. It'd have been nice to have more time focused on the Surfer and Galactus.

          I've got to agree with you there - it's just one of many awful castings in this film. I can only see him as the human ken doll from nip/tuck

            To be fair, in the first movie, they do say that Doom just craves power above all else. Maybe that was his whole plan

            1. Get the board
            2. Be a god
            3. ????
            4. Profit
              With the board's power, he could have controlled the entire universe

              He wasn't bad@$$ in any way imaginable. He was overtly camp if anything.

                Doom was pitiful and pathetic, nothing like the great archvillain he is in any comic.
                Good thing they'll reboot it.

                  My sentiments exactly. They barely scratched the surface of how great Doom can be.

                    Rebooting after a good movie like this that left a lot of story arcs open is dumbfounding. I think Doom is the best Marvel villain ever and FF3 should have had the Skrulls in a after credits scene with Galactus attacking their home planet

                        He was still Doom-lite. Dr Doom has not reached a quarter of the potential he could have in these movies.

                                He was bad for sure and most definately ass but he was certainly not a combination of the two.
