Fictional Biography
Ceritak, son of Cerimul, was born in the Bottle City of Kandor, an extradimensional place populated by a variety of creatures from all over the universe. Most of the inhabitants descended from beings imprisoned in Kandor at some time either by the living computer Brainiac or the magician Tolos who stole the bottle city from Brainiac. The species that Ceritak belongs to is distinguishing itself by its dark-blue skin, stout physique and a set of two horns sprouting from their foreheads.
Although his father Cerimul served as one of the elite councillors issued by Tolos with the assignment of governing Kandor, Ceritak developed into a rebellious young man as he grew up. Obsessed with escaping from the imprisonment in Kandor, Ceritak seized the opportunity of a transitory disruption in the energy wall separating Kandor's dimension from the dimension outside the city.

Scorn was among the legendary knights Lockdown kept prisoner aboard his ship, and was inadvertently rescued when the Autobots liberated Optimus Prime and stole a detachable section of Lockdown's ship. Optimus later freed him and the other Dinobots to request their help in defeating Galvatron's forces, and when he finished beating Grimlock into submission, Scorn and the others joined the Autobots charge into Hong Kong, carrying Crosshairs on his back. He later helped to escort the "Seed" to a safe location, however Lockdown returned and attempted to recapture the Dinobots and Optimus using a magnetic tractor-beam, but the Autobot leader managed to destroy it before they were caught. Once Lockdown was defeated, Optimus set the Dinobots free, and Scorn and the others headed off. Like the rest of the Dinobots, he isn't referred to by name as he cannot speak, but Crosshairs later names him "Spike".
Door
A door is a moving structure used to block off, and allow access to, an entrance to or within an enclosed space, such as a building or vehicle. Similar exterior structures are called gates. Typically, doors have an interior side that faces the inside of a space and an exterior side that faces the outside of that space. While in some cases the interior side of a door may match its exterior side, in other cases there are sharp contrasts between the two sides, such as in the case of the vehicle door. Doors normally consist of a panel that swings on hinges or that slides or spins inside of a space.
When open, doors admit people, animals, ventilation or light. The door is used to control the physical atmosphere within a space by enclosing the air drafts, so that interiors may be more effectively heated or cooled. Doors are significant in preventing the spread of fire. They also act as a barrier to noise. Many doors are equipped with locking mechanisms to allow entrance to certain people and keep out others. As a form of courtesy and civility, people often knock before opening a door and entering a room.

The Doors (film)
The Doors is a 1991 American biographical film about the 1960-70s rock band of the same name which emphasizes the life of its lead singer, Jim Morrison. It was directed by Oliver Stone, and stars Val Kilmer as Morrison, Meg Ryan as Pamela Courson (Morrison's companion). The film features Kyle MacLachlan as Ray Manzarek, Frank Whaley as Robby Krieger, Kevin Dillon as John Densmore, and Kathleen Quinlan as Patricia Kennealy.
The film portrays Morrison as the larger-than-life icon of 1960s rock and roll, counterculture, and the drug-using free love hippie lifestyle. But the depiction goes beyond the iconic: his alcoholism, interest in the spiritual plane and hallucinogenic drugs as entheogens, and, particularly, his growing obsession with death are threads which weave in and out of the film. The film was not well received by his band mates, close friends, and family, due to its depiction of Morrison.
Plot
The film opens during the recording of Jim's An American Prayer and quickly moves to a childhood memory of his family driving along a desert highway in 1949, where a young Jim sees an elderly Native American dying by the roadside. In 1965, Jim arrives in California and is assimilated into the Venice Beach culture. During his film school days studying at UCLA, he meets his future girlfriend Pamela Courson, and has his first encounters with Ray Manzarek, as well as the rest of the people who would go on to form the Doors, Robby Krieger and John Densmore.
