Anyone see it? If you're a fan of the series I'm sure you'll like it. It was a LOT more like the game than the first was. Lots of guns, zombies, dark areas...and Jill was kickin some serious ass. Nemesis was damn cool too he even has a "S.T.A.R.S." line! It drags down at LOT at the ending though, but they make it way cool by adding something from one of the RE games. (spoiler if at the bottom) Now I think it could have been even better with a more involved story, but overall it was pretty cool. And now for that spoiler...
Remember that really tight FMV with Claire in Code: Veronica where she outruns the helicopter? Yeah, they do that in the movie. Right after that, they do the part where she drops her gun and catches it while falling too. It was a nice touch. And if it's not common knowledge, Carlos is in the movie. And so is a character named "Nicholai" who I think may be the same dude from RE 3's Mercenaries mini game. -------------------- <center>

My whole post is spoilers, don't read it if you wanna see this atrocious movie spoiler-free....(why ya in the thread then huh? ;) -----------
lmfao! Me too! They zoomed in on it so much, I was just waiting and waiting for a tear to trickle down his cheek...haha
God I know! It was HORRIBLE! Whoever the director was needs to be shot. It was so confusing and blurry and a lot of the damn action sequences didn't make sense.
Actually, (and I could be forgetting) I don't think she controlled the cameras or anything. She did look at the security guard and "do something" to him that made him bleed out the nose real bad and die. They're kind of implying what was implied in Code Veronica with Alexia. Alexia deliberately infected herself with the virus and went into stasis for 25 years to adapt. Alice didn't have to adapt that long apparently, and now she has the same god-like power Alexia Ashford had. But they're mucking with the game continuity and the games are actually GOOD while these movies suck ass real bad. -------- Nicholai was actually in RE:3's main game too. He died much cooler in the game though.  He was older too...the guy playing him in the movie looked really young.I don't like what they're doing with the movies here. Originally, the movies were supposed to intergrate with the games. But that's obviously not true-Nicholai dies completely different, Carlos got infected, the whole Nemesis thing alone...it's just completely screwing the continuitiy of the games up, and they arent' even screwing it up for a really good storyline. And who the f*** is Charles Ashford and his daughter Angela? Talk about screwing crap up! Ugh! I know they're trying to make the movies so they aren't exactly like the games, but I'd much rather they just screenplay the games and make those into movies than these lame re-write efforts they've been slapping up on screen. Honestly, about the coolest scene in the whole movie was the classroom of little kids taking the reporter chick down like a giant meat popsicle while her camera recorded it. I adore the games. I really hate the RE movies. They're terrible. They obviously set it up for a third one too, ugh ugh ugh. I want my money back and to slap the bad director and writer(s) for that monstrosity. --------------------  WHM61/RDM72/SMN38/BLM17 RANK 10 |
