From the Weapons/Barbarian director https://youtu.be/SJPu1spHqfk?si=-FwdfcTv-fodvCt9Uh??? Looks NOTHING LIKE RESIDENT EVIL WTF
let me guess. GORE BUT LE FUNNY!
The amount of bots and shills in the comments is nauseating.
>>737944031Nope its an actual horror movie this time. Playing it straight.
>>737943918>Looks NOTHING LIKE RESIDENT EVIL WTFBut enough about Resident Evil 7
>>737943918good, translating the story of resident evil into a movie has failed horribly several times, original story and characters will lead to a better movie
>Looks NOTHING LIKE RESIDENT EVIL WTFWhat is the "Resident Evil look"? The game protagonists? Umbrella? You retards genuinely do not understand this franchise beyond the jiggling of keys, even after they've rebooted it three times now.
i don't mind that it's breaking away from the games because you can still do a good RE movie without 1:1 copying the games and just having some themes and elements of the games in therethe script spoilers for this movie seemed pretty good to
Weapons sucked.
Weapons ruled. Great film.
Weapons was alright.
Weapons? I haven't seen this movie.
>>737943918Hope this shit fails. Too many brown retards clap at garbage now a days
>>737944625Retard
>>737944771>>737944625>translating the story of resident evil into a movie has failed horribly several timesTHEY NEVER EVEN TRIED IT. The only RE movie script ever that actually followed the game story was Romero's original one, and that never got to the filming stage. They have literally never even attempted to make a real Resident Evil movie with real Resident Evil story and characters. All they fucking do, every single time, is grab some random trash script they had in the drawer and change a few names around to make it "resident evil".
>>737944664>What is the "Resident Evil look"?The zombies don't combine for starters
>>737947843i never even said this? i just said you can do a good movie without 1:1 copying the game, never said anything beyond that, did you misclick on my comment or something?
>>737948358in re6 simmon's bug form sucks in zomibes to repair himself so in a way they can under some conditions - it's during the final fight on the rooftop
not resident evilgeneric horror movie shitfat manasian woke "zombies"nope nope nope
>>737943918did they just turn duke into fat mr.x? my sides are in orbit
>>737950370the spoilers script says he's gonna burst open with a bunch of rats or something along those lines
https://www.scribd.com/document/1011210193/RESIDENT-EVIL-Zach-Creggers-Shay-HattinThe skript
this looks bad?what the fuck is sony doing
>>737944540I just read the script and it's just ironic humour
so they still can't do a survival horror movie in a mansion with a lab underneath and a spooky forest?jfc
>>737950679they could with a good director screenplay etcbut they went with woke "its all in your head" shit
>>737944482Imagine if Capcom put all of the money they spend on hiring shills to astroturf every single product they put out into actually making those products good in the first place
>>737950526>that endingwhat did I just read?
>The wintry setting seen in set photos (and the fact that Raccoon City is not a smoking pile of rubble) suggests a story set in the spring of 1998 at the latest>smartphones >1998
>>737943918>from the drector of weaponsSTOP SHILLING THIS ATROCIOUS ASS MOVIE HOLY SHITIT WASNT SCARY, IT WASNT FUNNY, IT WASNT ANYTHING
Weapons was the most 5/10 movie ever. The original RE movie is much more memorable than that.
>>737951187gonna do a RE movie marathon now1st one is greatafter that just grab a bucket of popcorn and enjoy
>>737950526I hate millennial writing so fucking much
>>737943918This protagonist is 100% dying by the end or turning into a monster.I hope they have a part where he needs to solve insane puzzles in a mundane building like the first three games.
looks fucking great, but it has nothingn to do with RE, so i will watch the chinese cam version on my laptop.
Weapons was one of the worst movies I have ever seen.
>>737951403Pontificate the perfume.
People joked on that pretty bad recent SH adaptation but at least it somewhat felt and looked like SH even if it did some really bizarre story choices...But this looks NOTHING like the game it's adapting
>>737951403whats this?
>>737943918Makes all the other Resident Evil movies, including Welcome to Raccoon City, look like masterpieces.
>>737943918I like when movies do their own thing with their stories based on videogames since a videogame is an entirely new medium, im sick and tired of leon and jill so a movie set in resident evil is fineHowever, i do feel like this movie doesnt look resident evil enough. It looks too millenial horror, weapons-like. Resident evil needs some old school horror about zombies and bio-weapons and someone in charge to fix stuff. That's it.
>>737951523looks like phase zero on steam - there's a demo if that's the correct game
um, exsqueeze me, where's Millia Jovovich? Don't look like no Resident Evil to me
>RE 7 like movie>Set in RE 2>Follows a random that might die at the end of the movie
>>737951585>Welcome to Raccoon CityShit b8
>>737951848>1998>smartphones
I haven't looked a lot into it but wasn't the director of that movie saying "oh yeah this movie is CANON it's super faithful to the game style and world"only for it to look, at least in the trailer, nothing like any of the games. Not just the story but visually too.Even previous movies were more faithful and they were very liberal about what they took from the games
>>737951848He dies. He was infected and became a gay not-RE tentacle mouth combiner zombie who can become a meat blob by smashing together with other zombies. Motherfucker couldn't even squeeze in some Hunters or Lickers or something.
>>737952053>oh yeah this movie is CANON it's super faithful to the game style and worldThe opposite, actually.
Dusk Golem seemed to like it.
>>737952213>>737952053Cregger the nigger admitted he simply had a zombie movie script he wanted to make and would've made it even if it wasn't RE branded. >>737952276Dusk Golem is a fucking shiteater.
>>737943918>BarbarianAny good?>>737944031Weapons wasn't funny. The conclusion was shit. The other parts were ok imo.
>>737944031So just like the usual RE game, especially the classic ones?
Don't post off-topic threads, brother
>>737944794>>737945296Why>>737945394Ye>>737945464Didn't miss anything. Technically you could start to watch it and turn it off 40m before it ending.
APOLOGIZE
>>737950526Thx fox
>>737943918Tells you how peak the aesthetics of RE were that no one can properly adapt it or reproduce it. Capcom especially
>dont mind me i'm just gonna rewrite the existing lore and replace it with my ownI hate this trend
Weapons is one of the best movies ive seen in a while, a director that has a background in comedy and horror is perfect for this franchise.
>>737943918>looks nothing like Resident Evil That's a pro.
>>737952502I DON'T HAVE YOUR PRECIOUS STONEAND FUCK YOU ANYWAY
>>737951465No one cares how many cameos and references your film has if the film sucks unless it’s a toddler film will the mario movies
https://www.dailyscript.com/scripts/resident_evil_romero.htmlWhy couldn't they just do this script that Romero wrote
>>737952575Too bad he just took a random "zombie" script and slapped Resident Evil branding on it. The zombies have fucming tentacles and can morph and combine into composite super zombies. It doesn't even have RE monsters dude. It's not RE.
>>737951152I liked the first half or so
>>737952620There's differences between not making cameos/many references and doing something that feels nothing like it
>>737952364>Any good?The beginning when it still had some sense of dread and mysteryOr the part where the deformed hag monster kept men as sex slaves to impregnate her so she could be a motherThe Justin Long part is too comedic tier
>>737952657>The zombies have tentacles and can morph and combine into composite super zombies.This is already more onbrand than the other film that tried to smush game 1 and 2 together.
>>737952786No it's not. Those movies still had recognizable RE monsters. This one has speshul OC zombies that aren't from any game.
>>737952657Sounds like RE5 to me.
>>737952657That already sounds like an RE thing.
>>737944596>>Looks NOTHING LIKE RESIDENT EVIL WTFbut enough about RE4
>>737952381It's nothing like them you retarded shill.
>>737952294Resident Evil is cool horror ideas that they staple an umbrella connection to in the end too. RE6 is when they really tried to make it connected to the lore and the story absolute dogshit. RE is at its best when the overarching background story is largely ignored
>>737952783Almost all horror movies lack a good second part. Even the new nosferatu has a shit ending.>spoilerHe forgot le sun
>>737952875But it isn't one. >>737952865There are zero zombies in RE5. Majini have modified Las Plagas parasites. RE zombies dont have tentacles and dont combine.
Looks to me like it's a look into what it would be like to be in the situation the games depict without being a professional soldier with government backing.Personally, not against that at all.
>>737952964You're arguing with someone who doesn't know resident evil outside resident evil wiki
Seriously though I hope Phase Zero gets a release date soon
>>737950526>the ending is nothing happens
>>737948358>>737950279Birkin's final form is also a whole mess of random zombies and shit he sucked up. Nyx in Outbreak is the same way.
>>737943918Sure it can't be worse than the last one. RIGHT?
>>737953140That's concept art though that didn't make it into the og game or the remake
>it doesn't look like the games!ah yes, because we all know the RE games are extremely cohesive in every aspect from storytelling to visuals and even genre
>>737943918Bruh why does EVERY actor that gets picked for these movies look like it comes from comedic role like Epic Movie or shit like that.Then they wonder why no one takes these game movies seriously
>>737953140Nope, it's only him growing.>>737953134Like his previous 2 films.
>>737948358Wtf yes they have. Zombies in RE can basically do anything depending on the virus strain. It's unironically never been a zombie franchise, it's always been bioweapons. First onscreen enemies are zombie dogs.
>>737953218Quite disingenuous to show bonus costumes that are unlockables
>>737953205simmons absorbing zombies did though
>>737952925Right but this is trying to be a RESIDENT EVIL ZOMBIE MOVIE and they didn't make the zombies RESIDENT EVIL-LIKE>>737953359Fuck off. Don't make the movie Resident Evil if you aren't gonna use the characters or monsters from the games. >>737953465That's no excuse for this faggotry. This isn't an RE movie, it's a silly zombie movie. I like that kind of movie. I'll probably like the movie but I probably could have LOVED it if it either was properly RE or simply didn't disrespect me and my interests by skinsuiting RE yet a-fucking-gain
>>737951139>>smartphones>>1998Well yeah? Resident Evil has advanced tech, it's about bioweapons for fuck's sake. Smartphones weren't in the original games because they didn't exist in real life yet, but they already cloning.
>>737952851jesus christ retards like you are the reason the mario movie makes millions
>>737953465Simmons put a different strain of virus, that was some superform of C-virus. Birkin put G-virus in himself and the virus that creates zombies and lickers etc. is T-virus.
>>737951152>STOPWhy?
Capcom has the worst IP management of all time
>>737953709They just dont' give a FUCK about movies/TV series
Apologize.
>>737951465>the game it's adaptingIt isn't adapting any game. It's just a film in the same universe.>Why is it called Resident Evil???Blame the script writers and marketers, Zach was just asked to direct.
Ho hum. Maybe the new House of the Dead movie will be bett-->Paul W.S. AndersonSigh...
>>737952657oh no not zombies with tentacles!
>>737951152Weapons was fucking great until they actually expanded upon what was happening and introduced the mary poppins witch.
>>737953748The CG movies suck ass but at least they use the monsters and characters without raping the lore.
>>737952502Hardest I've laughed at the theater since Megalopolis. I still can't get over the fake beard.
>>737953764Cregger wrote script
>>737953628sure a perhaps the movie has it's own strain? or is different in some ways? just acting like it never happens is kinda odd when it does
>>737943918I quite liked Weapons and Barbarian so I'll see this despite thinking video game movies are usually bad
>>737953791That's not a zombie. That's a man with a parasite inside of him. Resident Evil zombies don't fucking have fucking tentacles motherfucker.
>>737953560>Don't make the movie Resident Evil if you aren't gonna use the characters or monsters from the games.Yeah cuz that's worked for all the other movies.
>>737953853That's what most of the creatures are in this movie. People infected with tentacle parasites.
>>737953921They were bad for all the other reasons that could possibly have applied. But at fucking least you'd go to "Resident Evil" and see a monster from the games. >>737953957No. They're zombies that somehow grow tentacles because the movie isn't fucking Resident Evil at all.
>>737953853>Resident Evil zombies don't fucking have fucking tentacles motherfucker.Never played RE4?
>>737953848Read the script dude. The only thing Resident Evil about this is the name.
>>737953205that is literally the final boss of RE2 anon
>>737954029Those aren't Zombies. Nice try shit-for-brains niggerfaggot.
>>737953957Makes sense, Cregger said RE4 is his favorite.
>>737953853The point, I believe, is that there is a precedent for zombie-like creatures in the series that can do all kinds of weird shit.Hell, the doorframe shot in the trailer alone kind of hints that these are not regular T-virus zombies.
>>737943918Reminder that the director killed his friend
>>737954058No other bodies though
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1h-GV6rfgc
>>737954006>Shown the script literally saying that the other character has a parasite in her>Still goes "nuh-uh dey zombies"
>>737954108Based, overpopulation is a problem.MIGA!
>>737943918There hasn't been a single good RE movie. They're either nothing like the games or try to cram too much of the games into it to the point where there's nothing else.
>>737953764It's called re to lure people into the cinema and monetize the brand, duh
>>737953820When you don't know about it, it just looks weird, but once you realize, you cannot not notice it.What's worse is that the scene is pretty well acted and with beautiful visuals too, what was the director thinking with that beardThat's the whole movie, 70-75% of it is somewhat good, but the last 30-25% is so bad it ruins it. It also looks loaded with cut scenes which would have made things better
>>737954109because we never see the ass end of the creature, but it is the same thing
>>737944482For real.>PEOPLE SAYING IT LOOKS NOTHING LIKE BIOHAZARD HAS NEVER PLAYED THE GAMES!!!
>>737954006>But at fucking least you'd go to "Resident Evil" and see a monster from the games.There's literally nothing worse than a faithful shitty movie. It makes the whole franchise look like a bad joke. Part of the reason Resident Evil imploded as a franchise after RE6 was the slow poison of the all the shitty movies it kept shoveling out.
>>737954069Right. Which is bad. Because when you make "RESIDENT EVIL" I want to see people and monsters from games titles "RESIDENT EVIL"Tentacle combinerblob zombies aren't from Resident Evil>>737953957>>737954175That's the literal only instance of the word parasite. It's just tentacle zombies. None of the characters even say "parasite" once. Pic related: THEY ONLY SAY IT ONCE IN THE SCRIPT and it's not even dialogue.
>>737954157I've read it's excellent, somehow I have my doubts.
is Weapons any good? I heard it is but I doubt it, its a horror movie and most of them aren't actually good
>>737954059Duh, that's why I said this is a different strain of virus.
I know it's a tough pill to swallow for you fucking nerds but video game stories are dogshit. A faithful adaptation of Resident Evil 1-9 would make for a terrible movie. Glad they're doing their own thing.
Everyone remembers this is the now you fucked up Abe Lincoln guy right
>>737954293It's a comedy, my guy.
Name him
The amount of nufaggotry surrounding this is not gonna stop me from supporting one of the members of WKUK and in fact is only making me want to see it more to spite retarded tablet babbies, who cannot understand they are not even remotely persuasive. The primary issue hinges on RE having laughably bad writing to the point that the only throughline between the games is the order of locations you go to and that there will be evil blood involved (sometimes mushrooms). This means there’s really nothing the plot hinges on as a cohesive statement, so dudes in this thread will just hop up and down and scream about how this doesn’t make them feel how it made them feel when they stayed up past their bedtime watching cutscenes on an iPad so they can say they played that game and it’s their favorite franchise.
If it gets good reviews then people will call it a good adaptation even if it doesn't understand looks like the games at all.
>>737954324Mr. XXL
>>737954254>I want to see peopleI do not personally, I think movies are better for exploring side stories than just adapting the games, especially in a franchise so mechanically focused like RE>monstersyeah I can agree with this, I'll withhold my judgement till I see the movie but I would like to see some classic zombies, lickers and a hunter or two maybe. the big fat sewerman being a tyrant would be pretty funny though
>>737954324Janny
>>737954370>I would like to see some classic zombies, lickers and a hunter or two maybe. the big fat sewerman being a tyrant would be pretty funny thoughAnon, you can read the script. None of that is in there. https://www.scribd.com/document/1011210193/RESIDENT-EVIL-Zach-Creggers-Shay-HattinIt's just tentacle zombies who can combine.
>>737954354Exactly, this isn't canon. Just like Paul W.S. Anderson movies
>>737954041i did like 2 weeks ago
>>737954458didn't the director actually said in an interview it was canon?
>>737954254But T-virus zombies are not at all the only Resident Evil creature. The movie could be full of Regenerators and it would still be a Resident Evil movie.
>>737954305to be fair lots of people are still sour on "doing their own thing" because of stuff like the Uwe Boll and Anderson RE films, not to mention shows like Halo and The Witcher. but the guy doing this one has a decent track record, so it's a wait and see kind of thing.
>>737951523
>>737943918I saw>monsters >a cop car>a shotgun>tons of bloodLooks like Resident Evil to me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pv7eqvnwW8g
>>737943918Willing to trust the director even if this looks nothing like RE at all. Kinda makes me think more Dead Space than RE
>>737954324Double Whopper
>>737954548Right but it's supposed to be set in 1998 near Raccoon City. So no. But I'd accept it because at least those are RESIDENT EVIL MONSTERS.
>>737954449oh well. not exactly a deal breaker for me but it's a bit of a bummer.
>>737954529If you could find me the interview please, I haven't seen it. It's not for him to decide though. This is just a case of people wanting to hijack an existing lore and make it theirs.
>>737954061>Crowbcat vindicated as always
>>737954564>mandatory dogshit sewer level>checking drawings>hoarder>medkityep, looks RE to me
>>737943918doesn't look very interestingnot gonna pay to watch it and probably never gonna watch it so meh
>>737954324>we want the DUNC audiencethis is pretty embarrassing desu
>>7379543057 is the only one that could be reworked into something halfway decent. And at the end of the day you'd just end up with an imitation of stuff like TCM and Wrong Turn with some mold monsters thrown into the mix after you trimmed the fat. It'd be okay but nothing really notable.
>>737951403When the fuck is this game coming out
>>737954664>guy is carrying around presumably a first aid spray this guy is a fuckin scrub
>>737954458Capcom said its canon.
>>737954194The first Paul "Wife Guy" Anderson one was fine if you ignore it really has nothing to do with Biohazard but has loose relations (Umbrella Corporation, being in Raccoon City).
>>737943918
>>737954735Same time as Silver Pines2026
I'm missing you already.
>>737954458Fucking good, the overarching plot of Resident Evil is awful and exists purely as an engine for gameplay, if you can take the same scary shit and retrofit that into actual plot, all the better to the director for understanding what the games do good and what they do bad and helping to prop up the good parts. I don’t need an RECU, I don’t want it, but having spooky vignettes that end after the credits roll would be nice. Make me jump at the credits, maybe, but don’t make me sit through them.
>>737951971pretty sure it's just a flashlight, because why would he use a landline in the trailer if he had a smartphone? landlines would be the first to go down over cell service
>>737954752>Based on recent information, Capcom has not officially stated that the new Resident Evil movie is part of the game's official canon, but the film's director, Zach Cregger, has indicated an intention to honor the game's lore. Why are you making things up dude
>>737954802still love the first one
>>737952631This would have been 100 times better, what the fuck
>>737954776classic IGN
>>737952631>Romero wroteGiving a zombie movie to a zombie? Sounds faithful.
>>737952631>killing off BarryNope.
>>737952631Because that would make sense and Capcom and Constantin can do that.Also reminder in that Jill and Chris are in a relationship.
>>737951465RE has such wildly different games that that's not saying much.
>>737952631Because it's fucking awful and his later drafts were reportedly even worse. He was a petulant retard and kept putting stupid shit in like zombies skateboarding away from the blast at the end.
>>737951321
>>737952190You can hear a licker in the trailer
>>737954590You should, he’s on pcp https://youtu.be/lPHc68RIYAo?si=Hpabv45rjSJyjoys
>>737954870I didn’t even have to look this up to know that this movie wouldn’t be essential viewing to understand the RE timeline. But if it was, the plot would be much simpler and they would be spending a lot of time talking about how the new evil blood they got may be turning them evil they think and they need to inject it into their pet mountain lion to make sure before the note will suddenl
>>737955003Check the date it was written, retard-kun
>>737954802love this soundtrack to this dayhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jA964ue-aps
>>737955067>kept putting stupid shit in like zombies skateboarding away from the blast at the end.Fuck, we really did miss out.
>>737954286You can just try the demo. It's just straight up RE 1
>>737955067>zombies skateboarding away from the blast at the endYeah that never happened
>>737955078You can read the whole script and find zero lickers so...
>>737952631>race swapping woke slopno thanks BRO
>>737955090>Time-Travel Zombies in a Resident Evil movieWell that's just jumping the shark, no?
>"I wanted this movie to tell the story of what would happen if some idiot like me were dropped into the world of a Resident Evil game. So Austin plays not some badass with combat experience like Leon but just an average dude. That makes his experience of moving through this hellscape way more interesting to me than somebody who’s psychologically equipped">"A pistol [is] the first weapon he acquires in the movie. Just like in the games, as he progresses through the world he’ll get better weapons. It’s such a fun moment when you’re playing RE and you finally get the shotgun or the machine gun and I wanted that sense of progression to be in the movie">"Resident Evil is of course a franchise that’s got a ton of zombies but it’s also got all sorts of weirder monstrosities. Really wanted to make sure that we never got a handle on what kind of dangers we’d find. It’s not just a zombie movie. The T-Virus can have a lot of different effects and I wanted to make sure we had a variety of adversaries">"The slow discovery of horrific elements is something I really love about Resident Evil. It’s not a run and gun action game. It’s about tension and atmosphere and so I really wanted to lean into that. As much as there’s plenty of action in the movie it’s equally important to honor the dread. That moment when you look down a dark passage and you know something awful is waiting in that darkness for you. You don’t want to go forwards but you can’t go back. That’s the sweet spot"
>>737955072>fans will jizz when the only reference to the original world are four lettersZOINKS
>>737943918I think it looks ok Definitely better than the Anderson movies. All it needs is a lab section at the end of the movie and I'm sold.
>>737955178Barry was always intended to be a Black Man, the technology just wasn't there for Capcom at the time.
>>737955178>Saying Romero is woke>What did he say?>Duhhhh slaving away your life is a bad thing and you should be happy and full of life while living as a slaveWhat an odd thing to say.
>>737955207Leaked script confirms literally none of that is happening lolThank God for leaks. Save a lot of people a lot of money and time.
>>737943918I kinda liked weapons. The ending was good.
>>737955178>changing a dude to black is BAD>changing the whole existing lore GOODYou guys will eat up anything
>>737955207>So Austin plays not some badass with combat experience like Leonso did he never play re2 like at all?leon had no combat experience or even cop experience at allhe only had a gun and nothing more
>>737955207>That moment when you look down a dark passage and you know something awful is waiting in that darkness for you.Zombie Lowtax cameo confirmed
>>737955248I wish I could like literally anything, have you ever seen a movie you didn't like?
>>737954305Counterargument: Original Movie stories have been dogshit for the last decade and that's why they're always adaptions of books, comics and videogames now
>>737955268completely different character you dumb nigger dewey was the black one gelzer was the barry burton character
>>737955408Ask me how I can tell you've never seen the new Silent Hill movie.
>>737955245Its also RPD in the games, not RCPDCant even do the cheap fanservice right
>>737953802>without raping the lore.You sure about that one, champ?
>>737955340Weapons shat the bed the moment it revealed what was going on. One of the better setups I've seen wasted on a literal joke ending about an evil witch.
>>737955321Is the leaked script even the final version? Is it not an early draft? Scripts change throughout production all the time
I remember going to see Welcome to Raccoon City in the hopes that we'd finally get something close to a movie based on the games. It was absolute dogshit. How hard is it to balance fresh ideas while adapting stuff from the series?
>>737955478Every single scene in the trailer is in the leaked screenplay. Except for making the call on the landline phone. So I doubt if too much has changed.
>>737955478Weapons script was identical to the full movie. Trailer looks like everything that was mentioned in the script, the fusing bodies, the fat man thats stomach bursts into rats. Production on this wrapped fairly quickly, I doubt there was any major script rewrites
>>737952364Barbarian is good. Weapons as a film IS the mystery of its premise - the more it provides answers, the shittier it gets.
>make generic zombie movie>call it Resident Evil>normalfags who've never played the game applaud Holy fuck, it's really that easy huh?
>>737955572The script for Weapons when it leaked was 1:1 with the theatrical release, so it’s a good chance little to none has been changed. Seems like old boy knows what he wants, usually, another big win for Apple rotators.
>>737943918For fuck sake, why they keep trying and trying? Last movie failed, last tv series failed, GIVE UP!
>>737955621nah, the answer to the mystery is kino and the ending is great
>>737955321>Save a lot of people a lot of money and time.This will literally, unironically, no joke, no cap be the biggest success in Resident Evil Movie History.
>>737952502No. The kindest thing I can say about this film is that it never bored me. It offended, disappointed and exhausted the Silent Hill fan in me, but I was never bored. It was impressively shit, in a way that I'd still technically put it above Revelation at least.
>>737955657The best part of resident evil games is the zombies, boulderpuncher.
How sad is it that Welcome to Racoon City is the closest thing to an actual adaption we've ever gotten? If only they cast more white people, it would've went over better.
>>737955657Resident Evil is literally a generic zombie movie but as a video game. You stupid larping tourist.
as a big RE fan who loves them for the gameplay and who couldn't care less about autistic dumb shit like muh canon I'm excited we may finally get the first halfway decent RE movie, weapons was meh and barbarian was pretty fun, I like his overall style even if it's too A24 elevator horror coded for me, RE should have been made by an 80's action horror director with exploitation tendencies instead of someone trying to be a critic pleaser. But at least I can see he's trying to build atmosphere and trying to be faithful to the spirit of survival horror progression in the medium of a movie. This board and this fandom are braindead dumbfucks so I'm not surprised the reception is bad and the intent is lost on them, they'd rather see shitty cosplays and nitpick over nonsense like the timeline details in muh canon and retarded shit like that. thankfully the brand is strong and normies will lap it up regardless so this will be a very positive direction.

>>737955831Jeet Leon is so horrifying I can't forgive it ever
>>737954802Stockholm Syndrome.
>>737955149It's visually RE but made by people who don't understand or like RE
>all the shillbots yelling "well if you want a resident evil movie to feel like the resident evil then just play the heckin games, THEYRE RIGHT THERE!!!"
>>737955798not even in the early games is this true, the best part is navigating a puzzlebox with a pocket full of keys. it's basically every other enemy that isn't a big animal that is interesting. hunters, lickers, the Tyrants, even stuff like the dogs are better than the zombies.
>>737955870>RE should have been made by an 80's action horror directorThose guys are all dead or decrepit has-beens
>>737955712Idk, it could since the series is really popular again, but those other movies had the Chinese box office holding them up. >>737955831I'd say the biggest problem with that movie was that they tried to do resident evil 1 and 2 as a singular, 2 hour movie which just made the whole thing a total mess. They should've just picked one game to adapt and then casted more white people.

>>737955995>from the retard who has never played the source materialGo back to your E-celeb video essays you subhuman.
Apologize to Paul W.S. Anderson We could of had a movie with the Dimitrescus by now.
>>737955621Pretty much. They could've put more thought into it. Apparently barbarian is the same as weapons. O wonder, really. I like cages horror movies better. Not perfect though.>>737955149Might do that rn
>movies based on religious books are 200% accurate>movies based on comic books are 40% accurate>movies based on videogames are 5% accuratewhy is it like this nigger?
>>737955712It won't even break 100,000,000 lmfaoTotal flop incoming
>>737955837A faithful adaptation of RE1 would end up looking like Monster Dog without Alice Cooper.
>>737955340No>>737955475There's no way around it
>>737943918who is this kike
>>737955798Nah the best part of RE games is the coom materialIn fact that's the only thing that keeps RE threads alive
>>737956072Weapons did 270 million. You think Resident Evil won't do more?
>>737955486Resident Evil isn't really respected by Hollywood which to be fair, it's pretty fucking retarded and arguably only really works as a game. Why they even bother is the question.
Weapons don't give us relief.
So why are people saying this movie connects to RE2 and 3? How?
>>737956142Yes but only the bara coom material.
>>737943918>Looks NOTHING LIKE RESIDENT EVIL WTFSounds like Resident Evil to me!
>>737956053wanting faithful adaptations of videogames is dumb because the game inherently loses some of that faithfulness by dropping the single defining feature of all videogames, the interactivity. people who want faithful adaptations just want to point at the screen and go "I know what that is" for an hour 30 to two hours regardless of quality, just look the Mario movies.
>>737956148According to google the budget is 80M so it can break even but I dont see it being such a big success that there would be a sequel
>>737956148Not after that trailer. It's not the 2000s anymore people are very skeptical about game adaptations and much less forgiving. The past 2 "adaptations" failed miserably so normal moviegoers don't care about it either.
>>737956191Takes place in 1998 also around the Arklay Mountains area.
>>737955946>I don’t like managing dealing with zombies and only like setpieces and le backtracking!!!!>I like Le puzzle but not Le challenge!!!!More children acting like they play this but cannot even bother to act like sounding like they’ve been in the same room with it on the TV, let alone enjoy it for the right reasons>>>>737954354
>>737956223Mario movies are for kids though
>>737956267He has a smartphone and uses it as a flashlight. And the cars are modern looking too.
>>737954802kinolove the oppressive atmospherefeels like cube where you don't know anything about the world outside
>>737956230>It's not the 2000s anymore people are very skeptical about game adaptations and much less forgivingMario Galaxy
>>737956148Not with how fucking bad EVERYTHING RESIDENT EVIL THAT ISNT A GAME has been for like TWO DECADES STRAIGHT. The IP is a joke, the core fans are upset about more skinsuit bullshit and it's "just a zombie movie". It's not gonna do that well. Weapons had zeitgeist behind it. This wont.
>>737956179>Why they even bother is the question.the answer as always is money. more often than not hacks to get to launder their shitty original story they couldn't greenlight without a brand attached to it, and fans will go to view that slop because they are dumb consumers
>>737956148Weapons had good word of mouth and was critically acclaimed, which attracted more people than it would have otherwise. Resident Evil will absolutely be a success, but probably nothing colossal.
>>737955207>if some idiot like meSo he admits to self inserting into the movie. + some "idiot" wouldn't stand a chance
>>737956290children's movies can be good anon, just look at The Incredibles. the mario movies are just jingling keys with a nintendo IP glued onto it
>>737951321>written like a Resident Evil gameIt's ok to say you're not a fan of the writing. But coming into a /v/ thread about that is dumb, you belong in /tv/
>>737956223was the hitman movie for kids?
>>737956350The fans didn't watch the most recent movie or the netflix show, both bombed. Nerds aren't that tolerant of adaptations anymore the loudest voices push back and people aren't enthusiastic about the 4th attempt to reboot something that has sucked 3 times for literally 20 years.
>https://youtu.be/rbsvSSosAhk?si=9xB_MLiGYdrvlNFuAll we want is this for 90 minutes made with a respectable action horror movie budget, is it so much to ask?
>>737956142It's honestly insane this actually happened in game lol.
>>737956342>Weapons had zeitgeist behind it. This wont.This movie has Weapons' cult following, Capcom's recent wins, and Resident Evil's comeback, plus a recent RE9 megahit. There literally is no better time to release this.
>>737954354All I got from this is weird parasocial bullshit. Get a grip man. Some dude from some mildly entertaining comedy troupe when you were in middle school is not your friend.
>>737956321Not all flashlights are the straight cylinder type.
>>737956339What about it? It's a kids movie. Everyone took their brats to go see it. This is a horror movie.
>>737956513It won't overlap. Weapons was for people who hate horror flicks. This is a horror flick ass horror flick. The normies wont be coming out.
>>737954802Paul WS Anderson was indeed the best director to handle RE, who would've thought
>>737956272>>I don’t like managing dealing with zombies and only like setpieces and le backtracking!!!!>it's basically every other enemy that isn't a big animal that is interesting. hunters, lickers, the Tyrants, even stuff like the dogs are better than the zombies.dealing with the zombies just isn't very interesting or challenging, if you were capable of reading a post without inventing a strawman to fight you'd see that I like the enemies in classic RE when they are an ACTUAL threat. >but cannot even bother to act like sounding like they’ve been in the same room with it on the TV,here's my leon B clear I got at the start of this month, forgive the poor screencap quality my capture card for my retro setup isn't the best and I quite like playing these games on a CRT.
>>737956535At 1:02 I'm fairly certain it's a smartphone. The light itself isn't in the middle and is on the side near the middle like most phone flashlights.
>>737956465Looks like shit and it was made by some senile old fuck who has no idea how zombies work
>>737955356He was still a cop, THOUGH
>>737954802This movie was cool, but everything else that came after it was ass.
>>737956670preach sister!
>>737943918looks alright to me, I don't get why everyone is crying about it
>>737956675he was only given basic training, he was fucking 18, just right out of high schoolnot actual combat experience, probably never shot a gun outside of training
Resident Evil has never had a good story so this movie seems like it is true to the source material
>>737956725Always need something to be outraged over.
>>737956589Also the Anderson RE movies did big numbers overseas because they love Milia. New RE has 0 star power, no famous monsters from the games, no movie stars to attract casual movie goers
>>737956725I guess there's just critical people who dont slurp everything that is pushed out
>people pretending to like the paul wes anderson movies nowLARP LARP LARP SAHUR
gay
>>737956860>pretendingThe first two movies are enjoyable and fun, after that yeah they kinda suck
I hate goycattle so much it's unreal.
>>737956803>no movie stars to attract casual movie goersHow can you say that when Brendan Frasier is playing the zombie in the sewer?
>>737956773Iirc Leon was around 21. Rebecca was 18.STARS really wasn't that special honestly. It was a small town in the Midwest. They were a couple of guys young enough to be 1 tour 90s era vets and some assorted normal tier cops with some extra training. They didnt even have modernized kits, their gear looked pretty patchwork even for the time. It was only later they were characterized as operators.
>>737956616You can post as many clears and flex all the authentic hardware you want, what you said let me know everything about your perspective. You don’t like the games. The zombies are the loop, they’re what determines how many resources you have between major setpieces, it’s like saying you don’t like pitfalls in Mario, what the fuck are you even talking about??? I don’t care that you thrifted a PS1, I have been playing backups since before TonyHax existed and the chip inside my console is so motherfucking old I have forgotten its name. What you said was fucking weird.
read the script. didn't like the ending. won't be seeing.
>>737956928From the third movie onwards it was all post-apocalyptic, so yeah I guess. At least Claire was hot.
>>737954324When I seen him I thought the movie might have been like Scary Movie or a parody or something
>>737956928The second movie is unique in that you can visually see the moment when it goes to shit.
>>737956998Jill and K-Mart was hot, too.I forgot what happened to K-Mart. I guess they decided her character wasn't interesting enough and never brought her back.
>>737956998
It's not a smartphone he's using to illuminate the garage, it's most likely one of these types of flashlights.
Ash Redfield looks very faithful.>Zombie GorillasHope there's no Zom-bees.
>>737957058Leon would end up doing shit like this in RE4 a year later and he doesnt have the superhuman excuse like Alice does. I really dont see the problem
>>737956053a faithful adaptation of a video game would look like those mario movies where it’s just pretty visuals and mario beating the bad guy. It’s slop for a child or manchild, there’s no substance to it. Video games are carried by their gameplay and if you remove that a lot of games fall apart
>>737956978>The zombies are the loop, they’re what determines how many resources you have between major setpiecesanon the games and resources are so tightly designed that you can boom every zombie and have more than enough for the rest of the game. Look at my inventory in this screenshot, I could kill god with this loadout. The enemies are only interesting when they are a threat, even RE2 understands this and that's why some rooms have a SHITTON of zombies in them, because they are only threatening when there's a bunch. even later this threat goes away with the sheer power of shit like the grenade launchers and shotguns man. the zombies are iconic, but they are not the most interesting aspect of the classic resident evil games and you are conflating the two and throwing a hissyfit about it.
>>737956860It's just Millia and Paul.
>>737957123>The gorilla was a hive for the zom-bees the whole time.Bravo Cregger
>>737957159The problem isn't the kung fu moves, it's that an OC stole the spotlight from an actual character from the games. To the degree that Jill is just her sidekick and looks very confused by her existence.
>>737957407WTF I love creggers now
>>737954324Baron Harkonen?
Wow that looks fucking awesome (and I've been following this franchise for over 20 years). I genuinely believe most people sperging out in this thread haven't watched the trailer or played more than 2 resident evil games. Just performative hate.
>>737957123any zombie animals would fit with outbreak pretty well as that had a the zoo as a locationand the zom-bees were in the first game!
>>737957229Congrats on mastering the game, do you think your experience stomping on the same game for 30 years translates into the experience of the average player, yes or no? Follow up, do you think that in any way colors your answer that you just replied with, also, yes or no?
>>737953218May as well post the tofu, nigger
I'm a simple man, I see Creggers/Peele/Perkins or A24 I know immediately it's instant kino
>>737957509Least obvious WKUK fanatic shill post
>>737957104It's a phone light. It's in the script.
>>737957104what type has the exact position a smartphone's flashlight has? genuinely want to know.
>>737957589Cregger summons ancientfags, it’s adult swim right now, nephew.
>>737954324Gay Ben
>>737952865Sounds like you didn't play re5
If you hate this, you are not a fan, simple as. You propably have played only one resident evil.
>>737957589I wish most of the people shilling Zach were WKUK fans but they're not
The amount of attacks on fans I'm seeing on social media is absolutely absurd. Apparently caring about Resident Evil itself more than this Cregger faggot makes you a loser.
I see people comparing this to Halo and Witcher TV show but I’m pretty sure the reason those source is that they taking the established characters you know and doing a dogshit job adapting them.(Along with bad writing in general). Pretty sure making an OC in the world is a step in the right direction. Like if they made the Halo show instead about a Marine grunt surviving the covenant invasion.
>>737957689I've only played OG RE1, OG RE2, OG RE3, OG RE4, REmake, RE2make, RE3make, RE4make, RE9but yeah, not really a fan so not gonna watch the movie
>>737957557>congrats on the mastering the gameanon I got a B rank on Leon, C on Claire. this was my second play through of RE2, my first being before RE2R came out so I could compare and contrast. I like the original more>do you think your experience stomping on the same game for 30 years translates into the experience of the average player, yes or noconsidering I have not been stomping on the same game for 30 years yes I expect the average player to get C and B ranks, that seems pretty reasonable. >do you think your experience of the game biases you in this discussionyes, see what I wrote above
>>737957719Easy to spot people who read from /pol/ that Trevor Moore died and watched a few of his skits and this made then a die hard WKUK fans despite not watching them
>its shilling if you don't immediately hate everything and join the shitpost dogpile as soon as you see a teaser trailerthis website really has become plebbit lol, see ya later homos
>>737957749>caring about Resident Evil itselfWhat does this even mean?
>>737957749Sony's bots are out in full force, it makes sense now why they never bothered to respond to DRMgate, they were gearing up to protect this pile of shit movie
>>737955467Yes. I don't remember any lore breaks in them. Haven't watched Death Island tho
this movie is a trans friendly retelling of the old chuddy games, why is /v/ so bigoted???
>>737954305I think people have a right to complain about vapid and cynical marketing, if they want.If they're not going to adapt anything from the source material, they shouldn't use the name.
>>737957829Lmao dude we got almost the same time and the save amount.
>>737957749People going “where’s Leon? where’s the licker?” aren’t real RE fans, they’re marvel loving soilords
>>737957854Saying "Why do you care just go play the games" in response to every criticism is the definition of shilling
>>737957775Read the script. If you actually know anything about Resident Evil you'd see why people are frustrated with the direction. Nobody would be complaining if this was set in the same universe like Outbreak. The script will inform you that it isnt.
>>737957775Yeah doing something original can be good but you still have to honor the original shit>No recognizeable Resident Evil monsters whatsoever>RCPD instead of RPDIt's skinsuit trash.
>>737955072>rcpd
>film twitter fags are actually winning the narrative over vidya fagsFucking based, fuck vidya autists
>>737957794Yeah, you are not a fan if you dont support this. It's simple.
>>737957940>hate reading an unfinished script of a movie that hasn't come out yet
>>737957991I'm fine with that
>>737943918Oh its gonna be bad, like pic related type bad.
>>737957940Why the fuck would I read the script when film is a visual medium. All resident evil games would read like total garbage if they were scripts as well
>>737955207>The T-Virus can have a lot of different effectsNo...?
>>737957854>announcing departureSir, this is not an airport.>site dedYe, been for a while now
>>737957974It’s not hard to write a story that is more in-depth with more going on than “Oooh evil blood is scary and bad I’m gonna dip this cat in the spooky evil blood”
>>737955072>This is what “RE fans” want
>>737943918Already? 9 just released.
>>737958016Seriously, why wouldn't you see this? Seems like a perfect movie for people who like adaptations from certified geniouses like Creggers.
>>737957937Yeah REAL Resident Evil fans want an obese dude thats stomach fills up with rats and creepy zombie children and a drug addict protag that says fuck every sentence and VIDEO GAMES BITCH while blowing open a door! Take that Marvel basedlords! We know Resident Evil better than you!
>>737957868It's the residence of>president devil
>>737957909welcome to the masters of RE2 club, we don't speedrun and save too much. our craft is impeccably average.
>>737951321Tumblr writing
>>737958030The script proves there's nothing resident evil in it. The zombies have tentacles and can clump up into larger flesh conglomerate zombies. The main dude fights them and escapes to a hospital where somebody says they can make a cure, he kills them all because he was infected.
>>737958040Anon, these people cant differentiate between T-G-C -viruses and las plagas.
>>737958008>unfinishedWeapons script was exactly like the movie and everything in this trailer lines up with it Cregger shill
Are there any actual Resident Evil BOWs in the script or is it a generic zombie movie from the twisted mind of Zach "I Kill All The Horror In The Last Half Of My Movies" Cregger with the name slapped on?
>>737958101I think this is more up your alley >>737955072
vidyacucks are getting BTFO on twitter right now
>>737957829Then I can say that you did not have the average person’s experience with it already because it was colored by the remake and you already had an expectation and preconception going in that is disconnected from the experience that the movie clearly deriving itself from. Have a good day, you fucking headache.
>>737958097I don't know, I just don't see anything good about it and nothing about it looks like resident evil to meAnd I checked out of watching anything made by the west a long time ago
>>737958110Well duh I'm not a speedrunner
>>737958162Literally no BOWs, just an original T-Virus strain that makes you grow tentacles and comebine with other zombies into a big flesh clump ratking things.
>>737957937True mature sophisticated resident evil fans want a generic horror movie with the title slapped on for brand recognition.
>>737958008>Haha you did research, bet you don't have a jobTwitter fags really just don't have good insults do they?
>>737958162No BOWs. Just tentacle zombies that absorb other zombies and merge them together. Could be called anything else, Resident Evil name is cynically slapped on
>>737958173>from the twisted mind ofThat's how you know it's average
>>737958116And how is that not something that could happen in the RE universe?
>>737943918vendetta is peak resi imo, it has camp and action and monsters. but this dude doesn't make these types of movies, he's more grounded, although weapons was funny as fuck, so there's still a chance this trailer is misleading. if he does decide to go for a serious horror movie and it ends up good, it could be a great blueprint for the next resi game with a new protagonist.
>>737958268That's not the point. If they're gonna use the Re universe, there should be recognizeable RE things in it. They can have a new speshul snowflake zombie type of they want. Just also include normal T Virus zombies or some Hunters or Lickers or whatever the fuck.
>>737958185>my first being before RE2R came out so I could compare and contrast.>my first being before RE2R came out>first before>BEFOREmust be one hell of a headache if it's impacting your ability to read in such a dire way
>>737958212It’s RE7 all over again. I’ve never seen a fandom do this twice where they discredit something not based on quality but because it doesn’t have enough memberberries in it. If you watched the movie and thought it was not good that would be one thing but that’s not why people are complaining
>>737943918I liked the trailer a lot.
uncs will really say this looks less like resident evil than a game with a spanish midget and his giant robot
>>737958368But RE7 was a Resident Evil game that was very Resident Evil. This is just a zombie movie with RE branding stapled to it cynically by kikes.
I don't understand, this guy made Weapons (which was shit but normalfags ate it up) but this feels like something where the studio wouldn't back it unless they could get a guaranteed audience so they slapped a recognizable title on it like Silent hill f
>>737958383the trailer is fine if it was named anything else but resident evil
>>737958368>nerds still bitching about re7Hahaah
>>737958421Weapons and barbarian was good tho. Especially weapons.
>>737958187>>737958212>>737958262>>737958348>>737958445holy samefag schizophrenia
>>737958348>Just also include normal T Virus zombies or some Hunters or Lickers or whatever the fuck."canon-fanboy-brainrot" shit like you is how you end up with trash like relatedyou just want to clap when you recognize the thing but have zero idea what is good storytelling or good anything
>>737958348The real reason to that is because the studio that owns the rights have to release live action RE content every 5 years or so to not lose their license
trailer looks fundefinitely gonna watch itstay made /v/aggots
>>737958209>>737958262What's the point then?Even the shitty Netflix series bothered to put in some RE shit.
The only good thing Weapons had going on was that old lady that gave me a wicked ass boner every time she was on screen
>>737958536Go back to Twitter Pablo
>>737958414>do I actually experienced the thing and I realized RE was more than Leon and lickers>however this thing will not good because there is no Leon and lickers
>>737958536if you like it, good for you brothis movie just wasn't made for me so not gonna watch it
>>737947843name ONE good thing about the game story.
>>737958262>>737958209So here's what's going to happen: "Resident Evil" is going to come out, get 5 star reviews entirely because it's Zach Cregger, the "genius" who made Weapons. He'll be praised for making "the best video game adaptation evarr" but only if you ignore the fact that it have next to nothing in common with the actual game. Anyone pointing that out will be shouted down until Oscar season.
>>737958358More like I got tired of keep track of your pedantic bullshit because your complaint was >Theres too much zombie in my zombie movieI’m not even gonna make an IGN joke, just fucking kill yourself. There’s no rule on this site that says I have to give you 100% of my attention, poor scorned child.
>>737958414Re7 was scarier than 9, and the only part in 9 was Rhodes hill first time around with grace
That ending is fucking horrible. They rewrote it right???
>>737958560Sorry I'd rather have Lisa wrestling a Licker than not have any Resident Evil in my Resident Evil movie. >>737958565Sure. >>737958598Fuck you, that's the point. >>737958615Sorry anon it's very simple: RE7 had all new shit but at it's heart it was RE1 coded to the extreme in terms of GAME DESIGN. This movie is... Not Resident Evil at all. In any respect.
>>737958615Holy ESL
>>737958626He said it's based on the early games, what else do you fucking want dude?
>>737955072is this a joke? Did they misspell RPD on purpose? what is going on here
>>737958663>>More like I got tired of keep track of your pedantic bullshit because your complaint was>Theres too much zombie in my zombie movieI never said that. you said zombies are the most interesting thing about RE, I disagreed. Saying zombies are the most interesting thing about RE is like saying Goombas the most interesting thing about Mario. you're ignoring the primary gameplay challenges (inventory management and world navigation) to gas up enemies that go down in a handful of handgun bullets. You call me the child yet you have demonstrated multiple times an inability to read at a basic level, and constantly throw hissyfits when people say no to you.
>>737958812No, they're THAT fake and cynical. They can't even check shit against a fucking wiki page.
>>737958758Look if you believe his obvious lies, that's on you. Cregger's going to put out some bullshit and then pretend he's a big fan.
>>737958812Raccoon city police department. The change makes sense. It’s better than raccoon police department.
>>737958692Let me ask you what about RE7’s game design is very Resident Evil then explain why the movie isn’t that because I played RE7 and I know why it worked. Because it’s not the surface level shit that makes these games but the feeling they give you
>>737958758Yeah we all remember Resident Evil 1's famous snowstorm and no mansion
Script Continued>Hey bro, Its me, Bryan... Bryan Kennedy... Just came downfrom that Silent looking Hill over there... But it looks like the Residents of this town are...... Evil........... So evil that a Devil May Cry.........what a hack
I see straight, grimdark horror. I like it. No need for weird and awkward casting of existing characters. There is no way to make one of the games as a movie. 2 hours aren't enough. If anything they should only be as side characters, appearing for a bit.100% he will meet Leon in the police car. And that's enough.0
>>737958414>But RE7 was a Resident Evil game that was very Resident Evil>is a shitty FPSLOL
>>737958869Sorry it's not up to them to decide what's good and what isn't. RPD is iconic. RCPD is a skinsuit worn by a hollywood kike.
>>737958626>it have next to nothing in common with the actual gamecan you believe they would create a brand new monster type besides basic zombies? that's so not faithful to the game series with mutant sharks, elephants and alligators, mold blobs, lycan werewolves, leech monsters, blind xmen wolverines, endless bodyhorror grotesque blobs with mutated limbs and giant yellow eye weak points NOT CANON!!!
>>737958173This is the type of cuck who says 7 was the most revolutionary horror game of all time btw
>>737958907The core structure of the game is EXTREMELY RE1. You're kind of dumb if you need that shit explained or think the core game design is "surface level"
>>737958998Low Effort Strawman
>>737958861So you're still going to be cynical. Got it.
>>737958939>100% he will meet Leon in the police carIt's just some random cop who gets eaten by the first mutant/zombie/whatever. He takes the gun and jacket from his corpse.
>>737958969Nah, your Capcom overlords got this one wrong. RCPD works better. Sorry this movie isn't going to be about character shipping like RE fans want now, but you'll get used to it.
>>737959037No reason to not be cynical. He thinks fucking up the name of Raccoon City's police is a moment where I'm supposed to "jizz my pants".
>>737958998Google "has capcom confirmed that the new resident evil movie is canon"
So I've been ruminating and rambling about this all morning but this is really a missed opportunity. Keep in mind this is the SECOND reboot, there was another resident evil movie not long ago. The fact you were almost certainly unaware of this says all that needs to be said.There were two ways they could've gone. They could've made it a dumb fun Resident Evil action movie focusing in the B Horror movie stuff and the iconic characters - and that's not a fucking meme, Leon is a goddamn star right now half of ThotTok is thirsting over him. Or they could've focused in on the plot and themes of the original concept of Resident Evil which was the satanic panic and the militarization of police and major corporations rewriting the law. You know, all things that have absolutely NO RESONANCE TODAY HAHA WHY WOULD AUDIENCES CARE ABOUT THAT.Instead they just made a generic ass generic body horror movie and slapped Resident Evil on it. And yeah, it 'fits', sloppily. Because 'generic horror' is part of Resident Evils identity, it's a send up and an homage of generic horror slop and classic monster mash movies. It's only when you screw in on the granular details it's identity presents itself. A movie about some random NPC in the RE universe surviving some shit isn't a completely terrible idea, but you don't lead a fucking franchise reboot with that. Come the fuck on.Lazy. Lazy lazy lazy.
>>737959074>RCPD works better.It doesn't matter what works better. It's RPD and should be RPD no matter how you feel. They're trying to be "better" than the source. It's arrogant dogshit.
>>737958530Couldn't take thee naruto run seriously, fighting dreamers was playing in my head every time I saw them run
Skimmed the script. Doesn't seem too bad desu but when I see stuff like this it makes me think that it's partially fakeHOWEVEREverything shown in the trailers matches up with the script including things later in the movie like the baby in the maternity ward. The ending also makes sense because it's all futile, everyone in Raccoon City dies or gets infected. They really lean into the body horror thoughhttps://www.scribd.com/document/1011210193/RESIDENT-EVIL-Zach-Creggers-Shay-Hattin
It's a Resident Evil movie for the people who know what Resident Evil is. Just look at the trailer, it's main point is emphasizing >CREGGERS>WEAPONS>BARBARIANThe consumer brain doesn't see anything else
>>737959037It's not cynism to see what is happening in front of my eyes. Even if it was, who gives a shit? Zach Cregger's success or failure has no bearing on my life
>>737959132>A movie about some random NPC in the RE universe surviving some shit isn't a completely terrible ideaIt wouldnt be a bad idea if this was actually set in the Resident Evil universe
>>737959138>They're trying to be "better" than the source.Is this the same source that you now share a fanbase of mentally ill shippers with? Maybe a good decision.
>>737959278This is basically what RE7 was. Ethan was some ??? fucking who, out of nowhere, with completely unfamiliar enemies and infected. And then I'M CHRIS REDFIELD shows up at the end and people went wild. The tie in is that easy. Just have a chainsaw fight in there somewhere.
>>737959356No. Either respect the source or fucking kill yourself.
>>737959254Did Weapons or Barbarian have lines like that? Could be a mixture of the actual script and fluff added in by the "leaker"
>>737958692>Sorry anon it's very simple: RE7 had all new shit but at it's heart it was RE1 coded to the extreme in terms of GAME DESIGN. >This movie is... Not Resident Evil at all. In any respect.despite all the claims from the director or script leaks highlighting how the movie is all about mimicking the GAME DESIGN instead of soifacing the canon loreaka the protag is constantly searching for resources, struggling for ammo, having to explore dangerous zones to find keys, trying to manually go from a to b in pseudo real time, to survive with limited means against insane odds and varied set piecesbut it's less RE than all those shit movies with infinite ammo and teleporting around for plot convenience and god awful direction and editing because they had uh they had a bad nemesis and wesker cosplays
>>737959269Of course they would emphasize that they finally got a decent director considering rhe steaming piles of shit the previous movies were
>>737959074it rolls off the tongue nicer because it has the same cadence as "NYPD", but like the RPD the NYPD does not have the C in their acronym, despite being the New York City Police Department.
>>737959019You’re a retard, this was me baby stepping you into how a game like RE7 feels like RE1 without Jill or Wesker’s cock jammed into your face. That’s the surface level shit I’m describing to you numbnuts, the fanservice. The game design that makes RE7 work and in turn made RE1 work was the tension and the fear of the unknown. The idea that you don’t know what’s on the other side of the door and if you’re even equipped to survive it. This feeling can also translate well to movies and it’s more substantive trying to do that rather than hiring some 40 year old to pretend to be a 20 year old Leon
>>737958758The very first game had Hunters, Neptunes, Plant 42, Cerberi, Yawn, Chimeras, Tyrants, and more.
>>737959382>despite all the claims from the director or script leaks highlighting how the movie is all about mimicking the GAME DESIGNIt's not. The guy gets progressively better guns. Wow. So Resident Evil! Not completely generic escalation from any plot or genre or series. Nope!>aka the protag is constantly searching for resources, struggling for ammo, having to explore dangerous zones to find keys, trying to manually go from a to b in pseudo real time, to survive with limited means against insane odds and varied set piecesNone of that is what Resident Evil's identity is. Resident Evil is fun B Movie Horrorslop with a cast of iconic monsters and heroes. We need to have at least one or the other. Without the monsters or the heroes, it's not fucking RE.
It's going to make a shitload of money and I guarantee you Capcom will use some of the elements in a future game.
>>737958854The Goombas are a part of the primary challenge you fucking moron. What else is the challenge of Mario if not jumping? What else is the challenge of fucking Resident Evil other than dealing with zombies you retarded separated Siamese twin? You can’t say “da keys” because you have to deal with zombies to even get to your beloved jingling keys. You are just a dissatisfied sperg that feels the need to split hairs now because they didn’t split hairs for you on this movie and make it the specific snapshot that you think of when you think RE. Fun fact: as it turns out, you have a completely different mental image from everyone else who plays this game, including the guy making the movie, sorry.
>>737954664>single protagonist>stumbles upon man made horrors beyond comprehension>finding guns>finding keys>finding zombies>finding bow'syup, it feels like its own spin off game.
>>737959446>it’s more substantive trying to do that rather than hiring some 40 year old to pretend to be a 20 year old LeonRight but they didn't even put in Resident Evil monsters or respect the name of the fucking RPD. You get it? The movie has nothing Resident Evil in it aside from ONE mention of Umbrella and a gasy mangled reference to RPD where they try to "amend" iconic names because they're arrogant kike niggers.
>>737959375I dont understand how wanting to see a licker or any kind of BOW or any kind of congruence to the events in a Resident Evil movie is misconstrued as "you just want to see Leon blahblahblah fanservice fanservice". I dont consider BOWs fanservice theyre one of the main things that make the franchise unique beyond zombies. The precedence towards the protagonist finding items and shit is a cool idea, if there was just a little bit more care shown into having it take place as the same time of the games instead of just doing whatever people would be less upset. Its not difficult.
You fags literally got faithful RE adaptations from Netflix and Welcome to Raccoon City and proceeded to shit on them.Now you're getting something fresh, and you're shitting on that. Make up your mind.
Be honest, when's the last time any of you set foot in an actual theater?
>>737959019So you haven't played RE1. Where in RE1 do you have scripted hide and seek bullshit with a chaser AI? Where in RE7 do you have an actual interconnected mansion instead of sequential level design full of linear bottlenecks, including disconnected chapters like the prologue and the boat section? It's a piss poor imitation of RE1 structure and design.
>>737959574>You fags literally got faithful RE adaptations from Netflix and Welcome to Raccoon City and proceeded to shit on them.>everyone was brownkys you stupid fucking shill
>>737959435FDNY as well that anon is a retarded nigger kek
>>737959602Demon Slayer movie last August
You're not the Silent Hill fandom.But you're getting close.
>>737959379Weapons had some smaller funny things sprinkled in with horror but it wasn't like the picture. Bryan is definitely a bumbling protag who's just a guy out of place trying to survive to meet up with his gf again, so they made him a comic relief character that gets pushed harder and harderAlso the entire script is completely 1:1. Every single shot of the trailer is in the script, there's a flow for everything and what feels like sensible reasons for the plot to be happening. It's just not conventional RE2/3 virus, it's some weird merging stuff to make weird creatures from multiple people and animals + tentacles and zombies
>>737959382>>737959487>>737959572Something like 'game design' isn't going to transfer to film because film is all about the extrapolation of characters, which is why people are frustrated by the lack of characters.If they filmed it so that the setting itself was a character or iconic in some way, then it would work. Set it in Raccoon city, or at the Mansion. When the setting becomes a character, the interaction with it becomes an expression of that character. THAT would make these 'game design, filmed' idea's worked. But because they went ??? fucking snowy farm house??? it doesn't.Maybe it's a fake out, but this is a fucking hype trailer why not fucking show your hype in the hype trailer?>>737959574>Netflix>Welcome to Raccoon City>'faithful'lmfao
>>737959574Those were not faithful adaptations. You're full of shit.
>>737959602chainsaw man movie last year
>the movie is bad because................ they renamed RPD RCPDcan you imagine how much of a brainrotted mongoloid you have to be to reason like this
>>737959602I went last week to see Exit 8. >>737959604The Chaser AI was new a cool and evberybody loved it. It was layered onto the esoteric keys and traps mansion setup. You're just sperging because you're a worthless, low res faggot. RE7 was RE1 again but with modern sensibility. It was VERY faithful to the series AND AT THE END CHRIS FUCKING REDFIELD SHOWS UP. This movie has -literally- nothing that makes it Resident Evil beyond a throwaway line from one character in one scene.
>>737955072I don't understand how this works. Wasn't RC bombed? When does this take place? Can't be during it. It snows and and he has a smartphone.
>>737959721if you don't like criticism, then don't make stupid changes to already established lore stuff
>>737959574>netflix series was a faithful adaptationkek decent bait
>>737959387>decent directorWhich is hilarious because Weapons was terrible
>>737959758before
>>737959570Bro have you SEEN how fucking weird Chris looks in RE7. It was so bad people thought he was a clone or not the real Chris
>>737959632>>737959697>>737959710>>737959771They had Umbrella. They had zombies. They had BOWs. That's what you're asking for in this thread are you not?
>>737959602The new mummy movie last week
>>737959758>It snows and and he has a smartphone.Sliding timescale, welcome to decade+ old media.
The Dying Light novel was better than this.
>>737948358>>737953560You're a massive LARPer who has only played the remakes and just wants to get mad on /v/.
>>737959721>dude you just don't like it because it's not memberberries>memberberries are in the movie, but are just shallow references and nothing that would actually make it enjoyable for fans like seeing the stories of characters and locations from the games played out in a film
>>737959826Way to skip the part of>characters were all brownYou're not fooling anyone you kike shill
>>737959783Weapons was great
>>737959723There's a mod to remove the tedious chase sequences and I loved it that way.
>>737959875who cares if the characters aren't all white? have you ever taken a step outside to look at the world?
>>737959602I saw exit8 and the new ryan gosling movie. Will see Hokum this week
>>737959805Yes but if it wasn't him that would still have been interesting. I remember the theories that he was Hunk impersonating Chris and that the credits showed Ethan being wheeled into an Umbrella blacksite to be experimented on [it shows rusty pipes from a lying on a gurney being wheeled down a hall perspective]
>>737959527goombas are but one aspect of the primary challenge, the most simple version of it. they move slowly, and hurt you when they touch you. basic mastery of the main mechanic that stops them trivializes the poor goomba. this makes them not very interesting when compared to more complex enemies, like the hammer bros. they are iconic, but overshadowed by the more dynamic enemies. now take this exact paragraph and swap Goombas out for Zombies, and hammer bros with Lickers. Do you understand now that I've explained this to you for the 3rd or 4th time or are you still going to continue your temper tantrum
>>737959826How can you in good faith claim that the show was a good one?
>>737958560Hate me all you want but I found this movie to just be pure dumb fun.
>>737959932Fucking kys
>>737959928>no john, you are the demons
>>737954802I just watched this for the first time like a week ago and holy shit, I had no idea what I was missing out on.I was playing RE4 while it was on and just so happened to get to the laser hallway scene right as I got to that point in the game that it's based off.
>>737959826>That's what you're asking for in this thread are you not?No. That is dressing. I'm asking for the things that make Resident Evil unique. Body Horror Virus, Zombies, and Evil Corporation are not it. These are tropes which Resident Evil sends up.>>737959875I don't even care about that, DESU, just that it was a fanfiction rewrite of the plot and lore.>>737959952>>737959527https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4yOT604hxQ
>>737943918I don't get resident evil vibes neater, more like evil within vibes. The first one not the second one.
>>737959602I saw that umamusume movie in theaters a few months ago
>>737959793Before what?
>>737960007I accept your concessionGood guys: 1Racists: 0
>>737959932Doesn't matter. The characters ARE white. It's easy to get that right. If you go out of your way to get the appearance of the characters wrong then you clearly have no interest in being faithful.
>>737959928The ending reminds me of that Thing fanfiction written from das Ding's POV where it talks about how the Earth is full of bodies to unify or whatever.
>>737959928So the ending he turns into a monster and eats people? That sucks
>>737960069;)
>>737944664>What is the "Resident Evil look"?Racoon City. It's always been Racoon City. When the games left Racoon City, they were no longer Resident Evil.
>>737954802>>737960030The issue with the first RE movie was it featured, again, none of the characters from RE1 and instead focused on the directors wife. However, it DID feature iconic elements and the setting as a character from the original, making it better than this. It was a mixed bag that absolutely had the correct atmosphere. They literally could've just made Alice into Jill and it would've been fine.The problem was they kept doubling down on the mary sue wife OC in every successive fucking movie.
>>737960116>boomers liked thisYeah you're not a true fan if you dont embrace the new canon
>>737960116Its not called Racoon evil anon
>>737959723Here we see the so-called RE fanboy reveal himself: contempt for the original games while praising the nu-capcom crapYou are a moron with dogshit taste
>>737951465Fuck off with this whole "muh real adaptation" this, alright, I've seena nd read every RE "adaptation" and the MORE faithful they are the WORSE they fucking suck because RESIDENT EVIL DOES NOT HAVE A REAL STORY.IT DOESN'T HAVE REAL CHARACTERS.You go read SD Perry's novels and it's 200 pages of made up characters that happen to share the same names. I didn't know Nicholai was a rapist or that Steve had cuck fantasies or that Jill was actually super emotional about some fucking family drama for the whole of RE1, because these characters don't have real stories or any depth. These stories as well could fill out maybe half a movie? At best? RE1 is about 95:5 busywork:story. The story is literally just>cops go to mansion>they get split up for arbitrary reasons>some die>the mansion explodesTHE ENDThat's it. I didn't miss anything because everything else is fucking busywork. The people who do die have no story or character or any arc. They just show up and die. The closest thing to drama in the game is Barry, and it's just appending one thing onto that description, which is just>Barry's family is being held hostage so he betrays everyoneThat's it, and every other game has this same lack of any real story. These are unadaptable. They're garbage, who the fuck would want this.>inb4 "hurrr why are you wanting x y and z"I don't give a shit about the new movie, I just think it's fucking dumb to want adaptations of RE.Equally dumb to go "just do an original story with the same characters" because we got like what, five of those? And they're all shit, all of those CG movies are fucking terrible.
If /tv/ was around when that Dennis Hopper mario movie was released, you'd absolutely love and eat it up with the same talking points
>>737960085its a bulletproof ending that keeps jews from demanding a sequel if it ends up making a ton of money whats wrong with it?
>>737960216cuck energy post
>>737960235I did like that. It had the Super Scope and everything. Also Daisy was hot.
>>737960274I accept your concession.
>>737960235We already have contrarians that jerk that movie off to no end though
>>737960281And if it didn't have Mario and Luigi you'd claim that it's a good thing
>>737960336But it did have both.
>>737944664kill yourself shill
>>737960365Yes it did but it's the same thing here, would you love a super mario movie without Mario, Luigi, Peaches, Bowser or toad? Propably not
>>737944664>>737960116It's actually Toronto. Nobody gives a shit about the Raccoon City in the original games, that's why all the new stuff base it off the films where it's just a modern city- also known as Toronto.I bet if the RE3 remake had city hall, it'd be the one from the films.
>>737960235I’ve seen so many 30 year old movie reviewers say that the 80s live action mario movie was so much better than the Mario Galaxy movie because it actually tried to have a story
>>737960497It was Daisy, not Peach.
>>737955621Based. This is exactly how I feel about those movies
>>737960597My point stands
>>737960572Also 80s lite cyberpunk.
>>737960497Probably because these games don’t have substance beyond that. Without Mario or Luigi what the fuck is the franchise even. They’re barely movies even with Mario and Luigi
>>737944664I’m excited for the move and i don’t care that it is stand alone but let’s be real dude. When the only connection to the games is the fact that there’s an umbrella company behind everything and that it takes place in a city called racoon why even pretend it’s adapting the games at all? The infected are not even zombies they are some weird cross between las plagas and the thing and there’s no bow like the likers or Mr x besides the dogs
>>737954254>>737953957Uroboros has tentacles and is a virus
>>737960216You can take any media and be retardedly reductive to itfaggot
>>737960302You just weren't important enough to refute, because you cannot communicate in good faith.Resident Evil absolutely has characters and themes. It's about the cult/atf standoffs in the late 1980's/early 1990s, it's about the debate around the militarization and privitization of the police, it's about company towns. It's about CEO's with eugenicist viewpoints - something that seemed laughable in the 90's but now we know is defacto real. It's about corporations buying the law and the government.STARS is a swat team literally made of military vets: Jill is former US army and even split trained with delta force. Chris Redfield is ex airforce and got discharged because of his clashes with officers. Barry Burton was his old friend from the airforce who gave him a lead on a job with Stars. All of these people are RIDICULOUSLY overqualified to be part of a Swat team in a fucking mountain town in Bumfuckistan, USA. Both Jill and Chris are partially haunted by their experiences in the military because their strong sense of ethics made them clash with the establishment there. Serving in the 1980's/early 1990's, both characters would've spent plenty of time in the middle east and elsewhere, specifically PANAMA (200 civilians were killed during Operation Just Cause), and Operations Desert Storm and Desert Sabre in Iraq.So already you have something to play with. Veterans dealing with the post military life, and the implied PTSD and social readjusting.
>>737954324
>>737943918>if a movie has a female protagonist she is always super competent, heroic brave strong and smart and gets tons of action scenes where she easily takes out the bad guys>if the movie starts a white male protagonist he is an idito and weakling who fucks up everthing and spends most of the movie getting rescued, beaten up and insulted by women pretty much every big franchsie is like this now. i can't think of a single one that still just features heroic and cool white male action leads and actual likeable and realstic female support cast that don't insutl or outshine the protagonsit every 5 seconds
>>737960870This isn't being "retardedly reductive", you're a fucking retard if you think RE even had a real story, let alone one worth adapting. RE is the posterchild for games not needing stories to be good. It was literally made by a guy who thought it having a story was completely pointless, and the most popular game in the franchise is proof of that, since it has nothing to do with any of the retarded story.>>737960878This is fucking nothing. "Something to play with" and it's just "uhhh... military guys and like... eugenics", also known as five billion other action movies. RE is nothing special, it is just action movie tropes, thank you for realizing that thirty years late you fucking idiot.
>>737954324Burblespue Halescourge
>>737957058It's bad whenever Alice on screen
>>737961016Yes, as a GAME it's about sending up tropes. But it mixes B MOVIE HORROR with those action movie tropes. It's Lethal Weapon + Night of the Living dead. Similar energy to Aliens, where you have the clashing juxtaposition of these badass soldier figures getting face checked by slasher film monsters. Also I see we've moved the goalpost from 'it doesn't have a story' to 'well the stories cliche'. Well no dogshit the story is cliche, that's the point. It's an homage. They were making a game about modern (at the time) horror movies. Yeah, it's old hat now, BECAUSE IT'S FROM 30 FUCKING YEARS AGO.
>>737961016Post a vidya with a real story

>>737957092worse Chris Redfield depiction than the one in RE7
>>737961253No it still doesn't have a real story.You listed backstory. Things in the manuals, or worse, GUIDEBOOKS, with the only vague allusions to the plot being eugenics (and literally only that from your paragraph on the themes, nothing else from there actually exists in the text of the games). >Yeah, it's old hat now, BECAUSE IT'S FROM 30 FUCKING YEARS AGO.I'll let you in on something. People laughed at and thought RE's story was bad thirty years ago. Nobody took it seriously, this whole comical poser thing where people try to jerk off the story of RE is purely a new phenomenon, nobody ever took this shit seriously. >>737961275>Post a vidya with a real storyI dunno man, fucking Dragon Quest 4?
>>737961450>Whining ITT sperging out about MUH REAL VIDYA STORIES>I dunno man [random game]Dumb nigger you just want to fight with anons for attention
>>737961663I didn't say "real vidya stories", I just stated that RE, the series, doesn't have one. This had nothing to do with video games specifically, it's just RE isn't a story game. It never has been and nobody working on it was ever convinced they were crafting a grand narrative.
>>737943918you can read the script onlineat the end he gets infected and becomes a generic tentacle monster that kills one of the scientists, none of the resident evil characters show up, its showing in raccon because uhhhhh ummm
>>737961775it's kind like souls in that the bulk of the story is delivered via optional text found via exploration and inspecting objects. it's there for those who want more, but the main paths of the games are pretty light story wise, though that might have been thanks to disc space limitations and not wanting too much voiced dialogue in the PS1 era. RE4 by comparison very much has more plot and dialogue, thanks to the better hardware. I cannot speak on CV because I haven't played it yet.
Considering the state of this thread from the start. I'm assuming this wasn't the first thread on this topic, as trannies and bots clearly have had their scripts already.
I never watched Welcome to Raccoon City but that one seemed to lean super hard into fan service (almost too much)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4q6UGCyHZCIit was received poorly I believeand now it's like they went screw this and made another movie adaption that's barely like the game at allfeels like they can't hit the right balance
>>737943918Why is the guy holding an iPhone? And why is there a police car? Wasn't this supposed to be set in 1998?
>>737955954>They should've just picked one game to adapt and then casted more white people.>castedhello saar
>>737961775The first three games have a good mix of action and cheese, theyre simple stories but theyre not bad. Four onward is when the stories of the games became a farce, its when the series pivoted to ridiculous setpieces and became hard to take seriously
>>737962146>theyre simple stories but theyre not bad.Their simplicity is a large part of the issue because again, most of their stories could fill up maybe the concept of a film, but there's no meat on any of them (even ignoring the fact that RE3's plot makes zero sense from any angle, not even just Jill being there, not even just Jill tramping it up on the town when she's supposed to be in Europe per her own fucking diary (not to mention suffering trauma or whatever, but who cares), just the fact that they clearly had no idea what to do after the Clocktower, so Carlos just goes to the hospital two days later and there's the cure-all!, fucking dumb). That's why an adaptation wouldn't work, and that's why the stories and characters are non-existent.
>>737960116RE3 has great visuals. Raccoon city being a mix of Japanese and US towns is awesome.
>>737944031Actually, it's gore but HAPPIER and with YOUR MOUTH OPEN
>>737962287yeah it's pretty impressive how much better the pre-rendered backgrounds look from RE1 all the way to 3. capcom really stepped their game up
>>737943918Watching Weapons on my second monitor right now.Good fucking God, this movie is creepy. I haven't skipped forward in a horror movie in a decade, but I had to when the witch showed up at the principal's office.I was one of those horror kids who read horror books obsessively but couldn't watch horror movies until (at best) my teens, so I go into one expecting to be challenged sometimes, but watching this while playing an Alice game has me trembling in my briskets. I might not finish it.
>>737962274I dont see how the t-virus vaccine being in a convenient spot is the smoking gun that would make the game less hard to take seriously abridged to a film. You've got your Terminator, you've got the antagonists from the first two games hiring mercenaries that are put into a bad situation that are well intentioned (UBCS), Carlos being a defeatist bitch and encouraged to man up by Jill, Jill finally taking revenge against Nemesis whos been stalking her throughout the entire game. Its not Shakespeare, but it works perfectly fine for the story its conveying. Being reductionist about everything makes anything "unfilmable"
>>737960878>Zogbot PTSD "zombie" movieOh god fuck off with this surf dracula shit >she trained with Delta Force!!There's never been a female delta member in its history it was just a fucking thing Mikami thought sounded cool he wouldn't even have known what the fuck Delta Force is he was a jap nerd in 1995.
>>737962828>I dont see how the t-virus vaccine being in a convenient spot is the smoking gun that would make the game less hard to take seriously abridged to a film.The issue is Carlos sitting around for two days doing nothing before randomly deciding to go to a random place that happens to be literally right next door, and he never thought to go there at any point before, and it just so happens to have the most important item in the game.
>>737962915I think it is kind of silly especially in the context of the game but movies have dumb glaring plotholes all the time and still get made, and to imply this is what would make the house of cards fall to make the movie not be possible is really overblown. They could also just change details to that and nobody would complain, the remake did. People are complaining about this movie because the script just has very little Resident Evil DNA to speak of.
