>The movie is said to be "about a guy (Bryan, played by Austin Abrams) sent to deliver a bag that he thinks has organs in it. Then he gets stuck in the ice on the way, hits a zombie lady, gets pulled over by the cops, gets chased by a dog, gets chased by zombies that turn out to be alien zombies.

Honestly when it comes "nothing to do with the games" I don't trust the sources, normies think that Resident Evil is 4 onwards OR MAYBE they know about RE2, they don't know the existence of RE1 or what is even about, on Twitter there was a thread of some brazilian monkey wishing that RE1 was more focused on showing the city, outting the brown monkey that he never touched RE1.

It's not actually that common. Most videogame adaptations have historically started out as attempts to adapt the spirit of one videogame or another, but at the same time it's common to try to use an existing film as a template. This is why Mortal Kombat is based on Enter the Dragon, for example. It's a known quantity.

With the RE film, it is possible that it's a Shay Hatten script given an RE makeover, like how Ballerina was an unrelated script with John Wick words added. But it's also possible that Sony hired Shay Hatten to write something vaguely RE-ish to begin with.
>>

>>219561414
Because you think they're doing thing in the opposite way they are actually doing them.
They're creating a pitch, a plot, and a script, THEN they're looking for a franchise name to use.
They're not making a movie of Franchise, they're making a making a movie and shopping for a similar Franchise whose name they can use.

Again, they don't own the game characters. The game characters will never be allowed to be main characters in any kind of serious adaptation. It has always been like this, will always be like this. The reason House of the Dead (which Paul W.S. Anderson is shooting in a few months, possibly even within the next 2 months) is using the characters from the games because he can do whatever the fuck he wants with them. Capcom have been very controlling since the 90s when it comes to their characters. So there's just no reason to use characters owned by Capcom. When they made Welcome to Raccoon City, they had to dot every i, cross every t to make sure Capcom were happy with how Leon, Chris, Claire, Jill, and Ada were portrayed.

The additional dynamic is that nobody wants to "properly" adapt the first game because its plot sucks. The first RE film is what happens when you pull the first RE game apart and fix it. You fix the idiotic Wesker twist. You fix the boring mansion setting. You fix this, that, the other. And the end result is a techno-thriller where a mansion shows up in the first 10 minutes.
>>
>>219563166
This has literally never happened with RE. For example, the history of the Netflix series is known to people. Originally it was a sequel to The Final Chapter involving a new group of survivors rebuilding in a post-apocalyptic world, and towards the end of the first season Alice would show up to help.

This didn't work out for various reasons. So they pivoted. They presented Netflix with two pitches. One, a retooled version of the first draft without Jovovich inspired by Omega Man. Two, a more YA oriented RE adaptation about a town controlled by Umbrella, inspired by Ginger Snaps, about a girl who is bitten by a strange dog and begins to develop strange, aggressive behavior. Netflix preferred the second pitch, feeling it aligned well with the Stranger Things audience. But Constantin liked the apocalyptic one more. So they decided to merge the two pitches.

I don't think there has ever been an RE adaptation that didn't explicitly originate as an RE adaptation. The Cregger movie seemingly originated with Sony asking Shay Hatten to knock out drafts of films like Clue, Resident Evil, possibly others because they weren't sure which project they wanted Cregger to do.

How would you adapt Resident Evil 1 game with horror movie themes? It's a puzzle game with survival elements and some scary jumps not a linear game with story "bits" every 15 minutes like Last of Us.
RE1 "plots" is just Jill going room from rooms where the plots solve itself till the moment she decides to explode a tyrant.

I'm confused by your post. You've included a picture of Street Fighter from 1994, a film that Capcom co-funded and heavily meddled in. They controlled casting, release dates, major elements of the story. That's why Capcom got ongoing royalties from the film. They didn't just license it, they put up a major chunk of the budget and thus gained a lot of control.
>>

I think it's fine that it wants to do a story that doesn't feature the game characters and doesn't just adapt one of the games. Cool whatever have fun with it.
What I dont get is why it also is not even in the same fictional continuity and has almost nothing to do even with the setting. Why are the zombies fast. Why is the Racoon City stuff happening in modern day and not 1998. Why are the monsters aliens I guess. Why is it in winter.
Why make such a big deal about how big a fan of the games Cregger is if this is obviously just an unrelated zombie movie with RE attached. Why exactly can't the courier story be set in 1998 during the outbreak from the games. Why are all these RE shows and movies so fucking retarded.
What's so hard about this setting that all these adaptations have to change so much shit it's borderline unrecognizable.

Is it, though? The RE games don't use that kind of horror normally. Pic related is far more spiritually in line with RE's horror. You have this well armed protagonist who is nonetheless frightened and wounded. Barbarian is how Cregger interprets RE. But RE isn't about having no ammo. It's about being armed to the teeth and knowing that this is a terrible idea, but you have to press forward.

Yes retard, have you ever played a Resident Evil game in your life or do you just watch people play the remakes on YouTube? That clip I posted is a girl searching around for shit in a spooky area and finds a hidden item that allows her to progress into the next room, followed by a slow close up short of a door that’s leading into a pitch black point of no return. That’s about as Resident Evil 1 as it gets. Again, not a single Anderson movie has ever captured the tone of RESIDENT EVIL in the way that clip does. I’m not even hating on the movies either, I love Milla and Alice as a character. It’s just that Zach managed to capture what would look like an actual RE movie would look like in that quick clip compared to 12 hours of the jovovich movies.

>That clip I posted is a girl searching around for shit in a spooky area and finds a hidden item that allows her to progress into the next room, followed by a slow close up short of a door that’s leading into a pitch black point of no return.
Which is not an image found in the early games. The door transitions are not scary. Resident Evil's horror (such that it is, few of the games are actually scary) is about being heavily armed but not knowing where the next attack is coming from.

In your RE example, the girl is carrying a grenade launcher and also an assault rifle. Also she's an elite police officer. Because that's what RE is. It's not a vulnerable protag with no gun staring down into a dark hole terrified of going down there.

You could argue this captures the spirit of the interactive emotional experience, sure.

But this actually circles around to Alice as a character in general. She's not super different to Leon or Jill or whatever. It's not very scary because RE itself was never really scary. And this is a quandry. RE feels scary to people interactively, but you have grenade launcher. You have so much ammo. None of the monsters are a serious threat. But they feel like they are. And that's challenging to capture in a film.

What I would argue is that the Anderson/Witt/Mulcahy films do a better job of capturing the experience of playing a Resident Evil game in the cinematic format. For example, LJ at the motel is exactly how you play a Resident Evil game. You creep down the hallway. You try the door. You peer around the corner very slowly. Then a zombie leaps at you. This is a fairly direct translation of mechanics. But does it FEEL like a game? That's harder to say.

Doors in Resident Evil are not scary. It is what lies beyond them that is scary. And what lies beyond them is often pristine and well lit. That said, I feel like there is a core philosophical difference between the original Resident Evil and remake, in that the original RE and the films inspired by it understand the banality of evil. Evil isn't a dark spooky hole that makes dark spooky noises. Evil is clean and well kept. Evil is a house with the lights on. The RE1 remake arguably went totally very off the rails by transforming into generic spooky mansion stuff, and for better or worse a lot of RE game fans do look to that for what RE should be, and the films were very deliberately not that. And most RE games aren't that, either.

Honestly, what the poster is describing sounds little like early RE and sounds like RE7 instead. It's not a traditionalist RE image. It's a contemporary horror image. Barbarian is how people think Resident Evil is, as opposed to how it actually is, if that makes sense.

The early RE games are more like pic related. You're crack STARS members. You are fully armed. The thing INSIDE the pitch black room should probably be scared of you. It does feel sometimes like there's an unintended conflation where people talk about the early RE games. The difference between what was actually in the games and how you felt about them as a 9 year old.

>Which is not an image found in the early games. The door transitions are not scary. Resident Evil's horror (such that it is, few of the games are actually scary) is about being heavily armed but not knowing where the next attack is coming from.

The horror framing of Barbarian is not RE-like, it's not pulpy B-horror. It's not Romero, it's not Carpenter, it's not any of that.

>>219575101
You keep saying its clickbait when you can easily read the leaked script for yourself and see that it lines up with everything we've heard about this movie. Cregger trying to act like its set in the continuity of the games is a blatant lie because his film is set in modern day. In the continuity of the games Racoon City is already a crater and Umbrella no longer exists. So its an OC story with some very general game elements (mostly the names Racoon City, RPD, and Umbrella) that doesn't align with any aspect of those things in the game.

See, I don't have problems with an RE movie taking place in the RE universe, but not having direct ties to any of the games specifically, as long as it doesn't try to change lore. Like, I would be FINE with a moving taking place IN Raccoon City during the outbreak. I would even be okay if some of them survived and made it out, you can add lore that doesn't necessarily contradict lore. Like at one point there were only 4 survivors, Leon Claire Sherry Hunk. Then Jill and Carlos survived in 3. Then Ada returns in 4 so now we know there are at least 7. Then we Alyssa is 100% a survivor since she is in 9. So 8. Barry can show up in RE3 OG so potentially 9?

That is ignoring the entire rest of the Outbreak cast, Rita, and a few others seen in Raccoon City with their fates unknown. Since Alyssa was revealed to have survived, I wouldn't care if a movie set in 98 Raccoon City showed new characters in the movie and they somehow survived. I wouldn't mind a movie set between major game events, with everything going on in the mainline games AND side games, it wouldn't be too far of a stretch to see a new story set in, I dunno, Russia, where an outbreak happens and new characters have to survive against hunters tyrants lickers etc.

But changing lore to fit your monster movie is fucking stupid. Alien zombies? Changing Project W to be pure clones of one person so they all look alike? Changing the entire story and just slapping a few names and monsters on it and calling it Resident Evil? Fuck off. The animated RE movies are pretty good and I would enjoy them if they featured new characters instead of classic known ones almost as much.

Alice's story was already kinda done in Extinction. But yea, they should have stayed in the Andersonverse and made a film set between Apocalypse and Extinction with Jovovich appearing as Alicia.

This is true of some of the games, but not so much for RE2 (Leon being a rookie, Claire being a civilian etc) or REmake or Zero, both games which permeate an intensely thick horror atmosphere. Of course they share action elements too, but those games are equally oppressive for the player and the player character. It's not until the end of the respective games that the characters have become 'action' heroes. Finding a balance between the two genres is still something we've yet to see properly implemented in the films. Something akin to Ripley in Aliens.

Is this the fifth or sixth attempt to make films/series with the Resident Evil name? It's incredible that none of them have simply done what the fans want: adapt the games faithfully and with actors who resemble the characters?

You can read the screenplay you retarded motherfucker.
>>219563117
It's set in present day "Raccoon City" that could be any random American town. No zombies or other monsters from the games, they're all gooey tentacle mutants straight out of The Thing. It clearly started out as a completely independent story that had the thinnest possible vidya memberberries pasted in.

What are you even talking about lol have you never played Code Veronica, there are multiple parts of the game where you are NOT “armed to the teeth” and you can even soft lock yourself out of progressing through the game because you didn’t manage your resources properly.

How to make your OC DO NOT STEAL Resident Evil movie, if you don't want to do a straight adaptation of the plot
>take the timeframe and setting of the second game
>follow other people during that time, Outbreak style
>have them briefly interact with characters from the games, preferably focusing on secondary/tertiary characters like Robert Kendo or Brian Irons, so you have more leeway to make up shit that feels like it's adding to the plot of the games without shitting on them
>have some freedom to introduce new virus mutations
