This week Chump Slap and Poppascotch need to fill some airtime due to scheduling conflicts, so they decided that watching the 2005 film Doom would be a fun exercise and I think the guys are left with more questions than answers. What did they think about a Doom film where the signature gun never hits a person and now there's an alien chromosome that adds super powers to people who inject it? I guess that's in Doom now? Anyways, they talk about The Rock vehicle Doom!
