The first two, sure. Garbage after that.
First 3.
No. Third one is ass and when the franchise went to shit.
The third one is absolutely fantastic. It's Aussie Post-Apocalyptic kino with deep themes of desolation and loss.
should've said four
The second was shit, the third was kino
The second is too fun to be shit. I swear it's like you people have no understanding of a fun movie.
Is Back to the Future 2 a VFX-driven mess that's all style no substance compared to the masterpiece that is Back to the Future 3? Yes.
Is Back to the Future 2 fun? Also yes.
>I'm gonna post weak bait, it'll surely get replies
Yeah I'm saging it. Oh and by the way, ban me all you want janitor, because I will continue evading bans.
Also reporting this for something like NSFW or furry porn idk, anything misclassified that will make janitor lives more difficult
>making the janitors work more on the holidays
hopefully they're getting a holiday bonus
Yeah I hear they get double time on holidays. 2 X 0 = $0.00 hourly
Is it really bait? They're relatively popular movies and they're a major reason Jovovich is such a famous actress. Most modern female action movies are sorta trying be Resident Evil in some way or another.
PWS Anderson is not a bad filmmaker. Even Boll is not close to the "worst director ever". That'd probably be Chip Rossetti
He was alright up till AVP
AvP is not that bad of a film, especially considering it's pg-13. Now Requiem is dogshit, but the original AvP is really not that bad
That's what i meant
he didn't direct requiem
Yes i didn't say he did lol
I don't get your post then. You seemed to imply Anderson was an alright filmmaker until AVP then you agreed with me when i said AVP was't that bad
Although i don't disdain Requiem that much tbhwy
Alien vs Predator is fricking awesome. It's one of the most "Holy shit I can't believe that just happened, can this film get any more awesome" movies ever made. Lex is a great protagonist, the VFX hold up super well... basically, AvP is a good version of Prometheus.
Also if they're saying AvP was his last good film, that would be wrong because Death Race is really good, and arguably 50% of the reason Mad Max Fury Road exists. It took the car movie, and transformed it in this really aggressive, fast paced affair that is in stark contrast to the older Mad Max movies. It's dark and grimy and violent, and wasn't really appreciated back when it came out.
It's also a christmas movie
I love all of them and I don't care who knows it and I especially don't care about anyone who's mad they aren't like the video games
the first one was fine. the second one was trash except for sienna guillory. if you watched anything beyond the second then you've either been lobotomized or desperately need one.
The second one is clearly messy and cobbled together, but the action scenes are awesome, the music is great, the one-liners are great (Motherfricker please, my shit is custom!), and I like how Alice is played. It's completely unlike the other movies. In the second movie, Alice is a monster. It's like having Selene from Underworld in the middle of the cast. She has this intense stare, she's twitchy, and she wants to murder people at the drop of a hat because they've been bitten. She is post-human. She no longer has kinship with her fellow humans, and only feels kinship with Angie, because she's infected (but contained) and with Nemesis, because he's her mirror image.
As with the other films there is very obvious sexual tension between Alice and her female co-stars, despite Alice being ostensibly heterosexual. Anderson copied Alien Resurrection Ripley (who wants to frick Winona Ryder's character) when writing Alice, and it shows.
Resident Evil 1-3 tell a fairly straightforward story about Alice and her efforts to stop the Umbrella Corporation.
Resident Evil 4-6 take a hard swerve into experimental filmmaking and metatext. They pull back the curtain. They break the fourth wall. They are as much about RE's nature as a franchise, as an adaptation, as they are actual stories.
So when watching the RE films the question becomes "How deep do you want to go?" If you want to stay in safe waters, just watch the first three and be happy. But if want to see a director tear his franchise down, wallow in cynicism, then unleash some of the coolest action scenes you've ever seen, watch 4-6. I'm curious if they'll ever make a seventh film. The reboots were a complete clusterfrick, but it's hard to make a new RE film that pleases both audiences.
you are stupid
You're in denial. There was an interview a few months ago where Paul Anderson said that his cut of Retribution had no exposition. The movie was crafted to be confusing as frick and not make any sense. But the studio got upset and asked him to add in scenes of the Red Queen and other characters explaining what was going on. He's very cooperative so he relented. He wanted to make highly experimental art pieces disguised as action movies. That's why Afterlife opens with that slow motion scene of the zombie woman in the rain. It's art for the sake of art.
Resident Evil > Afterlife = Retribution > Apocalypse > Extinction > The Last Chapter
The last movie is a weird mess where the whole premise of the movie doesn't make sense -- but it DOES have easily some of the best acting and dialogue in the series. I've actually seen a lot of casual viewers who rank it as the BEST film, and I think there's something to that, although I don't agree.
it's not awful but the bad and the good balance each other out at best. I wouldn't ever say skip it if you're already that invested
It's one of those movies where it's not RoboCop 3 bad but it's not Terminator 3 good, either. It's just weird and messy. But the actors are really trying their best and it shows. Iain Glen is a fantastic actor who absolutely sells the idea of the two Isaacs as completely different people.
I really liked the newest one. They said Jill sandwich.
The live action or the animation?
The live action films are legitimate if campy action films you can watch with family and friends. They start getting weird after 3, but nothing too weird.
The CG movies are cringe. It's like watching Final Fantasy Advent Children in polite company.
The animated movies are good and enjoyable the LA ones are unwatchable shit
The animated films are a terrible videogame cutscene that you can't skip.
They have good action scenes, tacticool and the girls are hot, love the CGI movies
Your pic is the last good one
2 was a low point in the franchise but 3 course corrected, and retroactively made 2 sorta work as a disjointed action-packed middle section.
I just saw afterlife and was in awe at how fricking terrible it was, it's like CGI just came onto the scene and they had abused the shit out of it and it was painful
Afterlife is cool, though. But it does have some issues that Retribution tries to rectify. And it definitely feels like a sequel being made for the money.
What didn't you like about Afterlife?
The opening fight scene is fricking awesome, and is not-so-secretly a remake of the opening scene of Ultraviolet.
?si=rV9xLrskdhmURFCH
They don't make 'em like this anymore.
horrendous, the b***h is literally flying, its especially awful when you consider that something like this was made 10 years ealier
>horrendous, the b***h is literally flying
And?
>And?
and it looks like something you'd expect from bollywood, which would be understandable if it came out in 1995, but not 2010
No, I'm asking what exactly is wrong with a character who can literally throw concrete blocks with her mind flying.
again, it looks like some bollywood tier cgi which came out over a decade after the matrix
It sounds like you don't like Indian movies, but I wouldn't be surprised if PWSA likes Indian movies. I know Zack Snyder likes them, and they love his movies, and the two are somewhat contemporary.
The shot where she jumps out the window and throws the little grapple that hooks into the ceiling is actually a reference to a Chinese movie whose name escapes me where the heroine attacks an office building and escapes using that same gimmick.
RE4/5 feature a lot of wire work.
They all have hot women in them which is more than I can say for the recent slop.
1 and 2 were fantastic, quality drops thereafter but definitely still fun.
they are guilty pleasure shoot em ups. I enjoy them for she I wont lie
I like the White Rabbit cover in 3. People say that the Alice in Wonderland motif gets dropped, but it's definitely prominent in 1 and 3.
It's kind of a shame Alexander Witt, who directed 2, never directed anything again because it's actually a pretty stylish movie. It's pretty obvious that I am Legend was inspired by it.
Escaping form a zombie filled underground lab or city or post apocalyptic hellscape is fun, but where do you go from there? It just gets convoluted after that. Everything is fricked and society has collapsed there is nothing left so what the frick?
