I thought the trailer for the new Resident Evil looked good
You thought wrong
>>220235545I'm cautiously optimistic. Can I say that still or is that reddit now?
I hope he is the main villain
>>220235545Isn't that the DUNC guy?
>>220235545it looked very good. not sure whats up with the hate, bc its clearly not coming from people that have even played a resident evil game before. very strange. internet is turning into something very odd these days
>>220235545It looks good but i don't know why it's a Resident Evil movie.
>>220235681I feel like it wasn't uncommon for gamers to say things like>Make an original story but in the same universe, adapting the game story to film doesn't workand now people are sperging out because that's whats happening
>>220235545Imagine Ever Anderson existing and not casting her.
>>220235545Why show an image of Baron Vladimir Harkonnen>>220235608View above
>>220235741That make sense for games with a strong setting but Resident Evil is just aping B movies from the 80s. If it doesn't have the characters or plot from one of the games it's just any number of zombie movies.
How did you find that picture of me?
>>220235741It’s not what’s happening. They’re using the T Virus and Raccoon City setting but doing they’re own thing with both. T virus doesn’t cause zombies to sprout tentacles and fuse together. They’re using the name for brand recognition and that’s it. You could call the movie State of Decay and get the same outcome as what we have now. I’d be fine with them using a nobody character set within the game canon, similar to the Fallout show (even though I had qualms with it also).
>>220235741Where's the Resident Evil?We have The Evil Within Guardian, some guy from DUNC, and Chigger's stupid psychological shit with zombies jumping off roof tops and smashing into cars like some kind of synchronized swimming performance.
>>220235545it doesn't look good because new movies are incapable of being good.
>>220235877The T Virus is never mentioned in the screenplay. It was something intended to help crippled people regrow lost limbs that had some nasty side effects.
>>220235545why is Baron Harkoennen in Resident Evil?
The trailer looks alright but the leaked script is dogshit. I would've watched it if not for that leak. >>220235587I was until I read the script. >>220235741Because the original story sucks when you read all of it.>>220235877Why use anything if you're going to otherwise go totally off the rails? The script isnt even similar to any RE game. Not even thematically.
As did I.
Resident Evil fans will be disappointed that it has nothing to do with the lore and Zach Creegar fans will be disappointed that he's doing a video game movie.A lose/lose situation, except for the $20 million + BO that Creegar is getting.
>>220235975>>220235827RE at its core is about a guy trapped in an area full of biohazards and has to solve a bunch of puzzles and unlock doors to get out.
>>220235545I didn't like that Cregger's said there wasn't much in the way of zombies in the movie.
>>220235545OH WAH AH AH AH
>>220238882SAW is my favorite Resident Evil movie.
>>220238882Resident Evil is all about keys.
>>220238954>biohazards
>>220238973Rusty metal and used needles aren't biohazards?
>I'm going to make an adaptation of [IP] but I don't like anything about [IP] at all so I'll be changing literally everything about it>no I just won't make my own original thing because I have zero faith in success without normalfag brand recognition
>>220239044It's more...>Lemme make my script!>>No, my cocaine pile is getting too small, we need a guaranteed hit!>Uhh... it's a horror movie....>>PERFECT! Resident Evil is hot, slap that sticker on it and go ahead!>Alright, just cross out "generic villain" and replace with "Umbrella", done.
DUNC got a new job?
>>220235545It does look good! But it’s not really Resident Evil. It’s like he had an original script and just slapped the name Resident Evil on it.
The director said ops pic is influenced by blood meridian his fav book and because he didnt have a nemisis after stating the film takes place during re2. He doesnt even know the difference between mr x and nemisis, didnt even say tyrant. He said his favorite gaming moment was the dollhouse in village. He is larping as a fan. DUDE GREEN HURBS DID YOU SEE THE GREEN HURB IN THE TRAILER ;) . The score work was terrible. The film is going to be the same. Hes a larping turd.
>>220238954>SAW is my favorite Resident Evil movie.Saw was a big inspiration for RE7 tho.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ioht6ky1qBo
>my zombies>my t virus>my raccoon
>>220239044>>220239116RE is probably the biggest IP that has had more mainline titles not stick to the "formula"
>>220235545I'm really looking forward to it, Weapons was honestly the most I've enjoyed a major film release in probably a decade. Barbarian was ok, showed real promise, so I'm hoping we continue an upward trend.
>>220235545I imagined him being fatter desu
>>220235545It's gonna be so much worse than the Paul Thomas Anderson onesThis is what happens when you go from the director of The Master and There Will be Blood to some literal who
>>220240992>Paul Thomas AndersonAnon, I...
jizz bros, where we at? i clapped when i saw the rcpd.
>>220241199Next you're gonna tell me that Garfield A Tale of Two Kitties wasn't directed by Joel and Ethan Coen
>>220235975>Where's the Resident Evil?>We have the LOTR Cave Troll, midget Napoleon, and Mikami's stupid shit with Spaniards swinging chainsaws and screaming Mexican Spanish like some kind of bad telenovela.
>>220242338The difference is the one you posted has soul
SAY HELLO TO MY MELANGE BLEND
>>220242332There’s also an etan cohen.
>>220238954>>220240317Jigsaw has an AI C.
>>220235545>Anon, dinner's on the table!
>>220239044You forgot to add the part where>Even though Im making a movie about [IP] and I have no interest in [IP] I need to learn about it. I could just play/read the source material, OR I could just skim a wiki and ask AI to fill in the blanks.
>>220244656>>220239044The director played the games a lot prior to getting the project and even loves it. Try a new cope.
>>220245577He played 4, and has made a film based on 4 but set during the events of 2. If you listen to him, he clearly hasn't a fucking clue about any RE prior to 4 and thinks until 7 that they're action games.
>>220245665>a film based on 4 but set during the events of 2
the people complaining about this movie are resident evil game fans who will apparently do ANYTHING except play the video games
>>220235545>Skinwalks your IP to peddle their shitty monster flick
The concept of the movie actually sounds cool, and it looks well shot and actedMy only issue with what i saw in the trailer is that the monsters themselves seem a lot more silent hill/supernatural than they do resident evil
>>220245665>until 7 that they're action gamesThat's true though.
>>220240992A Paul Thomas Anderson Resident Evil movie would be crazy
>>220245665>moves the goalpost Oh wait, that was your new cope.
I hope the dude starts rolling around like the fat godskin noble in elden ring
>>220235741>Cops go to a spooky mansion>There are evil residents (zombies)It's not hard.
>>220235545RACCON CITY. MY FATHER TOOK ME TO A PARADE.
>>220245577That just makes it worse
>its based on RE4But it looks nothing like RE4
>>220246265>>220240992I think Paul "W.S." Anderson(Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil, Event Horizon) and Paul Thomas Anderson(There will be Blood, Phantom Thread) are two different directors.
>>220235545I don't even hate the imagery but it has nothing to do with resident evil.
>>220235877>They’re using the name for brand recognition and that’s itSo what? It's not like we don't already know their tricks. They do that because others people won't go see the movie. Just don't watch it or if you do don't expect resident evil. Expect they think they might have something ok and they snatched the re name to get more asses in seats.
>>220242338RE4 starred Leon Kennedy, a major character and protagonist from RE2. Ada Wong, a major side character and recurring frenemy of Leon's also shows up. It's essentially the Temple of Doom of the RE series, in that it takes beloved characters and puts them in a slightly unfamiliar scenario that still feels true to the spirit of the series. Meanwhile, this turd of a film doesn't have the characters of the series, doesn't have the spirit of the series, and doesn't stay true to the lore of the series.
>>220239044>I have zero faith in success without normalfag brand recognitionThat's reflected in box office numbers. It's not like they're wrong.
THe directors commentary video for the trailer was asinine to be honest. >this is uh...what MIGHT be happening on a different part of town while the games are going on...yeah..like some random dude somewhere else you knowWell shit lets just say they're in silent hill now too you dumb fuck. Also his literal>i uh really like the games and uhm think about them all the time...this is uh yeah my love letter to uh themWhat a piece of shit.
>>220241403Rac-Coon Police Department?
>>220238960Holy shit how boring this shit is. 51s of nothing. Zero. Just dark slop to hide the fact that they recorded it in a village townhall.
