But agreed with you and Eox, I never understood why they felt the need to change the characters. Doom's story is what makes him cool, not the metal suit and constant fist shaking. I knock the X-men movies a lot, but one think I did think they got right was Magneto. Probably my favorite villain when I was a kid and they did him justice. Overconfident, Holocaust survivor, genuinely doesn't want to hurt his own kind. They could have just given him a German accent to make him seem scary, but they did pretty good.
Doom's motivations are so empty in the movies. They need to push the idea that he has seen the future and his idea of a utopia is the one where Doom rules. Doom thinks he's saving humanity. Plus he's ridiculously powerful
