Is RDJ really a good casting for Doom? I like RDJ, but, this doesn't seem like a good role for imhis usual schtick. But I am willing to admit I am wrong.

I think RDJ comes across as a rebel bad boy, but Doom should be a more traditional honorable gentleman. In another time, Doom would be the hero.

Maybe they're going for something similar to RDJ's Sherlock Holmes. A veneer of propriety over a ruthless and savage intelligence.
