Just watched the new Resident Evil movie.

I loved every second of it. And I am not even so big fan of the horror genre to begin with. Absolutely hilarious, while also still scary and thrilling a good amont.

And don't let yourself get swayed away by the fact, that it's not following any of the game characters, and it's following a total soy boy instead. Trust me, it is a great trade for what it allowed them to do in the story.

@LukeAlmighty interesting, a main issue i hear comes from RE fans complaining that its not about a RE character, but i heard its like a RE "playthrough" with an OC in raccoon city (im a RE fan btw) which i think its a dumb complaint, i dont mind when movies try to adapt the source material in that way, if they tried to adapt any of the games stories it would flop hard imo, it wont work, but putting an oc thru one of the games events doesnt seem so bad and gives you liberty in the story, and makes it hard to complain about them messing up your fave characters if theyre not in it. As for the silliness, the games are silly, thats the charm :Akarin_Shrug: ill prob check the movie out next week when my friend is back in town
@LukeAlmighty also if you want a real Resident Evil movie then watch REC :^) good spanish cinema, its as close as we can get to a faithful RE movie adaptation, trust me
@LukeAlmighty Rec 2007, spanish movie about a reporter in a zombie outbreak, the way the movie is played out is very much 1 to 1 with how resident evil games are lol
