I've never seen any of the movies, but...

Wesker is actually in the movies?

I figured that the filmmakers veered WAY AWAY from the source material and wouldn't include him.

Yep, it's him, he's kinda chunky though, haha.

They also make Alice fight at the end:

So were the first two movies at least decent action flicks? I saw the double pack for 14 the other day.

They're ok. It makes you want to play Resident Evil. I wanted to after seeing this.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #6 on:** September 26, 2007, 11:37:58 PM »

So theyre like what, C+ with a tilt to a B- if you like RE?

demi · « **Reply #7 on:** September 26, 2007, 11:39:09 PM »

Yeah, total Resident Evil geek out, like how you go see Silent Hill and you geek out over that cause omg, it's Silent Hill.

k ill nab em, thanks

The first movie isn't really Resident Evil the mythos, but they introduce it at the end, which is where the second movie opens up... and so on

When Final Fantasy TSW came out I locked myself in my room for about three weeks out of morbid embarassment. I was afraid people on the street would point and laugh at me for being an FF fan. After finally emerging I watched the movie around 14 times trying to convince myself to like it, without much success for the most part, though I briefly managed to think it was a 3/5 at one point.

otoh I genuinely enjoyed Advent Children. it's basically a middling episode of Buffy padded out to feature length and given great set design, which means it's 6.5/10.

the first RE is infinitely better than the 2nd.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #12 on:** September 27, 2007, 12:49:17 PM »

The second one had some cool scenes that at least make it worth a viewing.

They are definitely not high cinema, but they are both very entertaining.

Nemesis was pretty bad in the second one though, he looked like a pile of melty rubber.

Plus, he

had a heart of gold

in the end :'(

STARS

Claire looks like a butch beaver, and she doesnt even have her signature jacket. Jill is probably the most faithful character.

Yeti · « **Reply #16 on:** September 27, 2007, 04:47:02 PM »

This thread has hyped me to see Extinction.

But I'll probably wait until it's out on DVD.

Lucretius · « **Reply #17 on:** September 27, 2007, 05:00:09 PM »

I'm going to see it tonight. I wasn't that impressed with the first two movies, but they were enjoyable as mindless fluff... with the second being slightly more mindful and also fluffier.

dammmmmm she was hot in the 2nd movie, her outfit from RE3 (game) was really well replicated. I was disappointed with the Nemesis, he was all slow and shit. In the game hes chasing you all over the fucken place

demi · « **Reply #19 on:** September 27, 2007, 07:19:44 PM »

They do Dr. Birkin pretty well, they show how he becomes mutated, but there is no umbrella swat team. He doesn't have the eye though.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #20 on:** September 27, 2007, 07:27:00 PM »

no HUNK, no sale

Yeti · « **Reply #21 on:** September 27, 2007, 07:33:26 PM »

Dr. Birkin is my favorite resident evil boss, the form where he has that huge claw for a right hand and the eye on his shoulder.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #22 on:** September 27, 2007, 10:12:51 PM »

yeah I remember when I first saw the Pics of that form and I was like OMG Im on the RE2 hype train for reals, it was probably the first game that I got hyped for prior to it's release. Maybe I could count Quake I dunno

I think Birkin had 5 forms total... fuck Id kill for REmake 2. I might have to replay RE2 shortly, such an amazing game

Lucretius · « **Reply #23 on:** October 01, 2007, 04:56:51 PM »

I saw it last night finally. I was very disappointed. Not that I had high expectations, but I just found myself being very bored. The pacing is off. The movie seemed a lot longer than it really was. I kept waiting for something interesting to happen and then when they finally delivered the final fight scene it was over so quickly.
I'll totally see the fourth one if/when they make it though.
