My name is Alice, and this is my franchise. Good luck with your little reboot. Oh, what's that?
CAN WE AGREE EXTINCTION WAS THE BEST OF SERIES?
PROS
> Desert setting is great & gritty.
> Scenes with the cast exploring & foraging for food in dark abandoned buildings gives us some of the most suspense/mood of the series.
> Best cinematography & use of light/shadows of the series.
> Milla's acting is fairly better than in the first 2 films.
> Her battles with the dual machetes is badass without being too over the top.
> Action in general is better shot than in Apocalypse.
> Alice's outfit is the best of the series. Very sexy but the big jacket hides how small and frail her arms are.
> Oded Fehr from the Mummy films is solid here.
> Ali Larter is good as Claire Redfield but underused.
> Iain Glen as Dr Isaacs is the best villain of the series with a rational approaching altruistic motive here.
CONS
> What ends up happening to Isaacs is generic & wasteful.
> Final battle was not bad but kinda anti-climatic.
> No Jill.
> The notable digital airbrushing on Milla's face for close ups.
> The characters making poor decisions (LJ not revealing his bite, the cast wasting ammo instead of focusing on head shots)
I prefer 1 and 5 but Extinction is really good.
As good as 1. Really it's the movie that could have happened without 2.
So wrong.
If didn't get your ass out to see Resident Evil: Afterlife in IMAX 3D, you missed something actually special.
sure
2 and 3 are the only good ones
1 is a lot better than 2 as a film
The first Resident evil was the only genuinely good one, it had the horror aspect done perfectly with enough kick ass scenes.
The scene with the dogs is probably one of the best and I remember getting nightmares as a kid after watching it. The second movie felt rushed and forced into being a block buster with the rampant action scenes yet little pacing.
5 is great. 4 is less great but still very AESTHETIC. 6 is a weird love it or hate it entry.
Nothing else matters. Resident Evil without Paul W.S. Anderson just doesn't work.
Explain why you don't like 4-6.
I remember RE fans got extremely butthurt about Alice's superpowers.
The odd part is that 4 removed her powers and people STILL complained. Also the modern RE game are full of characters with powers.
NIPPLE
You forgot
>ends with many millas
I wish I had a Milla clone factory
i remeber being 10 and playing san andreas with some zombie mod and putting sandstorms to roleplaying this movie. i miss being a child
i just loved how rock hard her nipples were all the time
i remember coming home from the movies 20 years ago and fapping furiously to her trailer scenes
The first one was best because it's prime Milla and she wears the least. You can see her getting walled as the series goes on. If I'm remembering right extinction has the most cleavage shots to try to make up for it.
Not really cleavage in Extinction but pokies thru t-shirt.
Extinction did do one weird thing which was extremely overly CGI polish her face and it's glaringly noticeable at times. Maybe she got sun burned bad filming in the desert because she didn't have it in later films.
>Extinction did do one weird thing which was extremely overly CGI polish her face and it's glaringly noticeable at times. Maybe she got sun burned bad filming in the desert
That's exactly what happened.
Milla Jovovich is the anti-wall
She's been in Hollywood for so long that we watched her evolve in real time from an extremely attractive 13 year old to an extremely attractive 50 year old
i'd have sex with her
Nah.
I would prefer if they stayed with the storyline from the games,instead of making another generic zombie apocalypse. I wanted to see Leon in Spain and Chris and Sheva in Africa,and later locations and characters from 6,7and 8. I hoped that Welcome to Racoon City could return us to right track, but it was much worse than even the worst of Milla's movies.
I remain unconvinced that would translate into good movies. Because the CG movies are basically unwatchable unless you're a fan of the games. They're not like the games. They're exactly like the games. As one writer put it, "They're like a terrible 2 hour cutscene you can't skip."
Of course never say never. But it's such a tall order. An enjoyable film version of Resident Evil 4 would probably necessitate making radical alterations to the premise, plot, density of action scenes, etc.
I personally think that if you were to reboot Resident Evil, you exploit the fact that Alice is a mass produced product. She can be anyone. She can live any life. Why do you need characters like Leon? To appeal to game fans? Is that the only reason, or is there something more?
Was that the one with containers full of zombies falling from the sky out of nowhere?
No, Umbrella load a shipping container with zombies injected with their experimental serum that makes them more intelligent, and then dump the container in the Vegas Strip.
Also, you can easily put about 40 zombies in a container like that, so it's not actually unrealistic how they flood out. Just saying.
>Her battles with the dual machetes is badass without being too over the top.

It's an unofficial remake of Day of the Dead, and I like it a lot more. It has a languid, drifting pace which makes it a bit polarising.
The voice cloning scene where Isaacs builds a text to speech voice profile using his conversation with Wesker seems kinda visionary today.
Bump
>zoomers who have no clue that this tech has existed for decades and been conceptualised in sci-fi since the 20's
please commit suicide tonight
who have no clue that this tech has existed for decades and been conceptualised in sci-fi since the 20's
The portrayal in Extinction is a lot more practical than most fanciful sci-fi versions. It's not a magical voice changer. He needs a significant sample of Wesker's voice, and he needs to train a model of some kind on it, an then he has a text to speech system which is close enough to Wesker but it still sounds a little stilted.
A lot of other movies would make the mistake of just having a major voice changer where Isaacs says the lines and then the computer repeats them.
i saw the first 2 movies. which ones are worth watching after that?
All of them. Yes, even 6.
none. Maybe 5 but Jill looks like shit in the purple suit
Resident Evil is one man's vision under the weight of so much studio meddling.

This makes no sense. She's the main character. Who else was gonna lead the RE franchise? Rain was dead.
In the Lost Lands is my most anticipated film of 2024. Release the trailer already...
Fricking A.
I watched Event Horizon and Death Race recently, and while I obviously love the Resident Evil movies, I dream of Paul getting a bit of a grip and making something with a bit more punch, a bit less fixated on genre metacommentary. I hold out hope that In the Lost Lands won't just be a movie fans of his enjoy but a really good movie that speaks for itself and wows people regardless. He can do it. He's just got to step back and get control of himself.
I think we played a game of basketball many moons ago.
>you work for me now
I honestly prefer Extinction Jason O'Mara Wesker. He's less of a cartoon.
Bow down.
oh my frick this looks like hot SHIT. i dont remember it looking like this
Behold the glory.
im losing my fricking mind
>there was a new re movie
Huh, man I stay out of the loop. Is it at least *fun*? I'll check it out if it is.
Turning yourself into bad-cgi should be a super power. He looks fricking hilarious and genuinely intimidating at the same time. Like the bad guy from who framed roger rabbit.
FRICKING LMAO
They obviously didn't have the actor on set, but needed to change the scene. Originally Alice discovered he was alive here. In the theatrical cut it happens on the first 30 minutes. The studio pushed for a bunch of moronic changes (the bizarre Ada hole in the floor scene was them, too) and they refused to release the already finished director's cut.
He is literally me.
It's a shot that lasts like 2 seconds. A lot of the Wesker stuff was reshoots because Screen Gems wanted the plot dumbed down. These movies werw always budget-starved, and as was mentioned earlier the studio refused to release the director's cut.
is that the pope?
Afterlife and Retribution are awesome movies. There's nothing wrong with abandoning horror for action. And they have more artistry in a single scene than many modern blockbusters have in their entire runtime.
We want the director's cut of retribution
I'd love a completely recut version of The Final Chapter, but that'd be too expensive VFX wise. A Retribution director's cut would be awesome, and the Letterboxd crowd would love it.
I'd prefer an extended cut of Apocalypse myself
The German Blu Ray has a longer version because Screen Gems didn't release Apocalypse in Germany.
So is the extended cut the same as the German cut?
Yep. It basically restores about half the deleted scenes, and flows a bit better.
That already exists
resident evil 3 and onwards should each be like 4 hours long
(1 and 2 are perfect as is)
I wonder why Screen Gems pushed for the runtimes to be so short. It left no room to flesh out supporting characters or let the films breathe.
>make a reboot
>claim it's more faithful to the games
>change the story completely
>race swap Jill Valentine
>change Wesker's motivations and character
>change the backstory of Lisa Trevor
>change the way zombies work
>plaster some aesthetics from the games
>call it a day
It's honestly the lying that bothers me the most, because at least the Milla Resident Evil movies didn't pretend to be faithful to the games.
Actually the WTRC zombies work the way they do in the games. T virus contimination in the water causes gradual deterioration.
Them being undead is a film thing. They're mutants in the games.
In games, at least first 3, they are dead, there is even a part in 3 where you pass through the graveyard and they crawl out of the graves. It's everything that is not human infected that are mutants.
They aren't dead tho, in fact they can't die at all, you have to complete destroy their brain or they further mutates into other creatures like the Lickers otherwise. The zombies emerging from the graves must have been buried recently, as they thought they were dead, or probably just a oversight.
I always thought just a bullet to the head to be bullshit, maybe a really really good shot in the right place to sever communication and blood flow long enough. That's what I think the REmake 2 did right, you have to either magdump them, carefully aim to critic shots or just behead them entirely (though everyone seemed to dislike this as they're are used to Le One Hit Kill)
The Alice movies work in a what-if kinda way
>what if this oc character existed in the RE universe that somehow made things better in the short term but in the long term things become much much worse
Whereas the reboot was just a race swapped cashgrab from the start with none involved aiming for anything higher
>you will never make youre waifu real by marrying the woman playing her and then shitting out a bunch of movies simply for her to be in them
Anderson kept working on the movies because he knew that if he didn't the franchise would implode like Mortal Kombat did. Like AvP did.
You know what? I take back all the shit I've ever talked about these movies. They were made for literally me by literally me and I was too cynical to enjoy them.
i've been watching the RE movies for 20 years and they've never failed to entertain me
He should with Michael Fassbender, he seems like having some mission acting in videogame adaptations .. but those failed
Anyone got the webm of jill from apocalypse smoking?
Why didn't he just back up? Would have saved his life if he had bothered to move back 3 feet.
>what if lasers killed half the cast early in the first 15 mins of the movie
RESIDENT EVIL!
The post-Anderson stuff still looks okay, but it has no soul.
It's curious how people nitpick small shots, usually ones forced in by the studio, because they don't wanna admit how visually stunning these chronically underbudgeted films were.
who ever said the RE movies didnt have good moments? i think every movie has at least one with the most iconic being the hive lasers
everything about this looks off in a way i cant even describe. i cant tell if hes too small or what
I think they didn't have a shot of him sitting, so used a shot of him standing and pasted it in. Possibly due to the ugly studio politics the director's commentary avoids talking about it. Milla does chime in "How much was cut from this?" At one point, though. The answer is "a lot".
> i cant tell if hes too small or what
he's tiny
he's the same size as both the women.
bro that's a manlet.
And that stance why tf is he walking like that?
does his fricking knee caps fold?
The One Perfect Shot twitter account once posted images from Monster Hunter and got angry responses.
Admitting that Paul W.S. Anderson makes good looking, aesthetically interesting movies gets negative responses from nerds. He's persona non grata for his crimes against nerd bullshit nobody cares about.
>can't find the wesker parody animations
Bros...
Is our kino queen right, bros?
About the new hellboy? No. About "showbiz" in general? Yeah.
It's fine as a dumb action movie and Milla played a good villain. Really I blame Mignola more than anything for trying to do to much at one time to make it as different from Del Toros HB as possible.
>movies plot is like 4 or 5 mid to late stage hellboy stories rolled into 1 five layer shit burrito
>have Harbor play an entirely to brash of a version of hellboy
>tell fans you're gonna be faithful to the stories then race swap characters and needlessly change shit up and blame the fans when they dont approve.
People haven't warmed up to that Hellboy movie yet. I liked it, but that's not saying much.
The final chapter was the shittiest send off any franchise could have, tho
The Final Chapter's ending makes me cry a little bit. It's flawed but it's not a bad movie or anything.
>The final chapter was the shittiest send off any franchise could have, tho
Retribution's ending was so hype and The Final Chapter was such a colossal let down that I prefer to just ignore it's existence.
The problem is that TFC has really important narrative payoff for certain story threads, including the very obvious fact Alice is a mass produced clone, and not some super special snowflake. However, much like Alien 3, it's a sequel that sits awkwardly.
>TFC has really important narrative payoff
That movie retconned every fricking thing the previous movies did. EVERY.SINGLE.MOTHERFRICKING.THING. it should be deleted from existence
Not quite. A number of its plot ideas were actually seeded in previous films. For example, Retribution flat-out says that every character in the first movie is a clone. Alice is THIS close to putting it together that she's a clone, too. But she doesn't get all the way there.
Also, Retribution introduces the nagging doubt that Afterlife actually happened, because a perfect reproduction of the opening scene of Afterlife exists in the Tokyo testing chamber. It implies that maybe nothing in Apocalypse, Extinction, or Afterlife actually happened.
There's also a nagging feeling, and I suspect it's stronger in the lost director's cut, that the "real Alice" isn't the one who leaves on the helicopter at the end of Retribution. I also suspect that in The Final Chapter, that Alice isn't the Alice from Retribution. It's just some random clone who is winging it by asking a lot of leading questions. I wish someone would ask Anderson point-blank about that because he's pretty open in interviews about his big brained story ideas.
But yea, TFC does retcon things. However, the retcons themselves can be recontextualized.
That's what a retcon is
Is making movies just so your wife can have an acting career based or cringe?
He directed AvP, Death Race, and Pompeii without her. He likes working with her and there's nothing wrong with that
extremely based. this way you get to spend more time with your wife instead of being split up working on different projects
I came to the realization that most dudes don't even likes girls, they are just attracted to them.
This hack at least loves his wife
Just look at pretty much everyone on this site. They hate women and claim they have no thoughts or emotion but they so desperately yearn for them.
>getting paid to dress your wife up in fetish gear and bang her in the trailer in between scenes.
Totally lame bro!
I half expect we'll eventually discover that Paul doesn't bang her in the trailer. He sits and watches her get banged by her buff, bald co-stars.
Did you know he wrote scenes of Alice flirting with Luther West in Retribution? Like, open flirtation? And a crew member on In the Lost Lands said that the sexual intensity between Jovovich and Bautista gave him cuck vibes.
>successful marriage

Absolutely incredible looking movie. #ReleaseTheAndersonCut
RE doesn't need to be horror. In fact the horror aspects of RE are the least interesting aspects. I do find that people who don't like the sequels tend to he horror fans.
People who like horror are s0yb0ys scared of dark rooms.
I don't understand why Milla does this
Where can I buy a Milla clone?
Ask Wesker.
I feel like hatred for Zack Snyder, Michael Bay, Paul W.S. Anderson, and even George Lucas didn't manifest until they took a nerd property in a direction nerds didn't like.
add Rian Johnson to the list
Exactly. He went from well liked director to "hack" because Star Wars fans.
Rian Johnson wishes he was half as good as those directors.
Completely agree.
Milla is playing a bad guy in a new movie with Sam Worthington. She and Worthington terrorize a black family in a post-apocalyptic future with no breathable air. But she's the less bad of the pair and Worthington shoots her in the head. I read the script.
what do RE (milla flicks) fans think of Underworld?
I like Underworld, and I think the overall quality is a touch higher across the movies, but they grew monotonous, samey. Every RE film did something new and different. Underworld blurs together.
I like Len Wiseman as a director. I think his director's cut of Total Recall is decent. I like Die Hard 4.
I was shocked to find out that Len Wiseman is american and PWSA is british. Feels like it should be the opposite.
Shopping is SUPER British, and in another universe PWSA became more of a Guy Ritchie type.
never heard of that one, will have to check it out
SEXUALLY ABUSING KOBENI AGAINST HER WILL
The same as RE. Only the first two movies are worth your time
IIRC Anderson went from a well liked but commercially unsuccessful director to hated because he made Resident Evil and despised because he made Alien vs Predator. The fact he wrote/directed five more Resident Evil sequels was him rubbing salt into the wound.
In hindsight the burning hatred for AvP feels weird, but back in 2004, in nerd circles, saying you liked AvP was like saying you liked Crysis 2 on a 2011 PC gaming forum.
Alice remains the coolest female action lead.
not enough erasers
The TV show should have been Alice, Jade Wesker, and so much sexual tension.
I liked the first Resident Evil a lot.
never thought mila was hot. her weird Aryan manjaw thing is offputting
judging by your fuentes image you are either a mutt, a homosexual, or a pedophile. possibly all three
>judging by your fuentes image you are either a mutt, a homosexual, or a pedophile. possibly all three
I liked 1, 2, 4 and 5. That's all
Liking 4/6 movies in a franchise ain't bad considering that a lot of similar franchises hurtle off a cliff after 2 movies. Or even one movie.
Definitely
Why is Extinction so overtly DNRed? They went to all the trouble of making Milla run behind a car to get all dusty, then they scrub a lot of the dust digitally.
Resident Evil is one of those odd adaptations where the franchise's pop culture penetration and iconic recognizability and its vocal hatedom reached a kind of equilibrium.
The franchise is not popular enough to silence the haters. But the franchise is too popular to easily reboot it. When they told Milla that they were rebooting the series she quoted this scene. "Well, good luck with that." That is not to say that someone won't eventually make a successful reboot, but this isn't capeshit. This is more akin to RoboCop or Total Recall. It doesn't matter if these films are flawed. You're rebooting something very distinct and recognizable and there's a damn good chance your reboot will come off bland and generic. Also, the sheer volume of Resident Evil movies works against you. If there was just one Resident Evil movie, it would be like, "Oh, that's the failed RE adaptation, we're gonna make the successful one." But you have to compete against SIX movies all of which have their fans. Even 6 has fans.
Resident Evil is Alice. Alice is Milla Jovovich. Resident Evil is Paul W.S. Anderson in the same way that every Avatar is James Cameron. That is a rather brutal barrier for any new RE reboot or attempted sequel sans Jovovich to overcome. You can't just serve up some generic "faithful adaptation" and expect people to give a shit. Total Recall 2012 is more faithful to the book in a couple of ways, but it's not a better movie. It's an okay movie, but it's pretty much universally seen as unnecessary.
Conan the Barbarian falls under this thinking as well. Arnold is Conan, and there is no easy solution to this.
There is literally and figuratively no way a completely faithful adaption of the games would not be more popular than PWSA slop. You're absolutely insane if you belive otherwise.
>completely faithful adaption of the games
Never ever going to happen. Every time a "totally faithful to the games trust us" project gets started it always avalanches into massive changes at the end product.
What's the basis for that thinking, though? Why wants a faithful adaptation, and what does such an adaptation bring to the table?
Do you also think a "completely faithful" adaptation of Total Recall would be more popular than Verhoeven's version? For all their ups and downs, what the Resident Evil films managed to display was a consistent sense of artistry, creativity, and visual razzle dazzle. The big risk is that you make a soulless product instead of a work of art.
For example, I don't really like Afterlife overall. I think it's a bit of a sagging, uneven movie. But it has some great scenes, and it's beautifully shot. The soundtrack is INCREDIBLE. Making a "completely faithful" adaptation that can be more artistically interesting and mass-market appealing than this is a tall order.
No, because the film would be called We'll Remember it For You Wholesale, and no one would have any idea what the hell that was or care to find out. I also don't think apples are comparable to oranges, for what it's worth.
Resident Evil is a known property, and even the average normie knows they are a game about zombies in a mansion first and foremost, even if they haven't played them.
And yeah you can keep quoting completely faithful like that's totally not a thing, but it is possible to be more accurate than loosely based upon. It doesn't undermine my point. Maybe I live on an island, but when I say Resisent Evil, most people I know don't immediately think of Milla Jovovich in a capeshit film. They think of the first game. And they'd rather see a good movie than a turd that's been left put in the sun too long, like the film franchise has.
Audiences tend to be more receptive to TV shows.
Milla Jovovich's daughter is her clone wtf
Something I always noticed about Retribution is that the ADR is very obvious. It's weird because the deleted scenes have very natural sound mixing. But the finished movie has a weird sound booth vibe.
Watch Apocalypse with the commentary on.
?t=113
This how come Americans have such a shit taste in movies?
The Resident Evil films are primarily popular outside America. Since the internet is so US-dominated that sorta explains the rhetoric around them. Americans have no taste.
The first, second and third Resident Evil games have a lot that could be mined for kino but the game fans don't seem to acknowledge they went utterly moronic after that, more so than the movies
The second unit director on Resident Evil: Afterlife was Tony Giglio, who directed Doom: Annihilation. There's a certain floatiness to the fight scenes that isn't present in Retribution, which replaced him with Nick Powell. People should pay more attention to who the second unit director is, because they are directly related to fight scene quality.
I enjoyed Afterlife and Retribution so much and disliked Final Chapter so much, in spite of their similarities, that I always think of my experience with Guy Ritchie where I watched Lock/Stock, Snatch and Revolver and thought "How the hell did he make the same movie three times, yet frick it up the third time"
The Final Chapter had its budget cut, its original editor blacklisted, and its main stunt double was horribly injured on day 2 of the shoot, resulting in the film almost being cancelled. Anderson has never spoken a word publicly, but Milla once mentioned she'd never seen Anderson cry, but when he called her to tell her that there had been an accident he was sobbing.
I don't dislike The Final Chapter. It's not the film we were promised, it's not the film they wanted to make, and it has a swiss cheese script, and the replacement editor is jarring, but it feels interestingly grounded after Afterlife and Retribution. It's like a whiplash right back to Extinction, but without any superpowers.
rocknrolla is ritchies best movie and final chapter is the best of anderson resident evils

>>let's just ape cool scenes from the franchise
>>but in a SIMULATION
I love this idea, and I dislike how the the theatrical cut ruins it a bit by immediately revealing they're simulations. That was meant to be more of a twist.
>oh here's fan-favorites introduced into the series such as Barry and Leon! Oh and we brought back some cool characters too!
It's a commentary on how franchises won't allow the dead to stay dead. How they will relentlessly recycle and pervert and consume even criticism. The manifestation of capitalism, Umbrella, builds its evil facility in the heart of a Soviet submarine base. Consuming communism itself, turning it into a capitalist product.
>n-n-no they won't be in the sequel because FRICK YOU
That really wasn't the intention. But things got out of hand. It appears that the relationship with the studio worsened because of Retribution making less than Afterlife at the box office, and the studio refusing to release the director's cut on home video. Then production was delayed a year because Milla got pregnant. Their original plans were very different. Anderson actually wanted to do a 7th film but by the time he was shooting The Final Chapter he wanted out pronto.
Only the first two were good. 3rd has it's moments but the quality nosedived after that.
Just reboot the franchise with Mila's daughter. She's a perfect clone of her mother.
Ever Anderson's greatest mistake was signing up for a David Lowery movie.
I wish the Netflix RE show had been better. It has some neat ideas, some amusing gags, and decent scenes, but the whole structure just doesn't work. It's an object lesson in how trying to copy Paul W.S. Anderson's style (it's almost a shot for shot copy in places) doesn't work if you don't have taste. As Anderson himself once said, "Money can't buy you taste."
It was just too racist...towards White people. I saw on YouTube a scene when raceswapped Weaker and his daugters arrives in a City in South Africa,see some White people and say : 'There are too many White people here'. And Said that in South Africa,where White people are killed and genocide s every Day? It was like approval of genocide and I am glad that series tanked.
It wasn't racist at all. American teen arrives in South Africa, wonders where the black people are. The show has some major dialogue issues, but some people really made a mountain out of an ant-hill.
It was racist to blacks americans if anything, cus that black character was the dumbest gorilla Black person ever, I was legit impressed at how much they put effort to make the character despicable as possible, truly scum.
The chubby asian was cute tho
Remember when game fans seethed because the film version of Leon Kennedy wasn't cool with the idea of his team dying, and Alice fricking off who-knows-where in search of a MASS PRODUCED CLONE CHILD IN A FACILITY FULL OF MASS PRODUCED CLONE CLONES, telling Alice that "You're more important."
This is why using the game characters was a mistake. Fans of these character want them to be completely one dimensional good guys. Also, the kind of people who simp for Leon have no media literacy or plot comprehension.
The first two RE movies are good, but then Anderson just kept getting money to make more slop that had nothing to do with RE but the name.
No, Anderson was finally able to realize his vision. Sony were cowards who wouldn't let him kill humanity in the first movie because waagh, how can we make sequels? The ending of The Final Chapter is the original ending, pretty much, the first movie was meant to have. The White Queen was meant to be in the first movie, too. She destroys the Red Queen and then goes, "Whoops, that was a mistake. Oh, well, I'm very sorry but you're all going to die in about 3 months."
His vision was nothing but showing Mila off. None of the movies but 1 & 2 actually had to do with RE.
