This explains so much it isn't even funny. O.o

Everything wrong with these films now makes sense.

What about Anderson always saying how big a fan he is of the games in the special features? Surely a fan would make time.

Why let him continue making these....take it away from him now.

Being a horrible way to do things aside, it is clearly bullshit.

*Resists urge to point out infinite plotholes*


I could maybe deal with the movies being in their own continuity if it wasn't for them just making no sense by their own standards.

I have never loved you more than I do now Kylie.

that is the lamest thing I ever heard, and fairly creepy

[Beanovsky Durst]

This explains a lot... His involvement with the series is watching footage of ANOTHER PERSON playing a game. What a load of bullshit. But hey, if the movies sell, he'll keep making them, so the only thing I can do is not watching them. To the rest, enjoy them if you like 'em.

That's but a tip of the iceberg. I collected most of the RE highlights she tweeted about and posted them on the milla tweet topic. I'll be laughing and crying myself to sleep tonight.

I'm pretty certain Anderson played the first two games (or three even). I think this article is talking more about 4 and 5, the gun games etc. Also, Romero didn't play the first game when doing his script (his secretary recorded it I think).

[Wrathborne]

Thats true about George, but he was like 58 when they first tried to make the movie in the late 90s. George isn't part of the video game generation and I doubt would be able to really adapt to it with ease.

Anderson on the other hand has more than enough time to sit down and play the games himself if he so chose, but hes too busy looking for cool things to rip off from other movies and put into his festering turd films.

Am I the only one who saw his 3 Musketeers trailer and saw that hes basically ripping off Assassisn Creed to make this film? I guess he's run out of scenes and effects from other movies to rip off and now hes turning to video games.

[Humor Tumor]

He's making a 3 Musketeer film? Dear god he is spreading....

[Wrathborne]

Check out the Trailer Humor, we have rip off in action.

[Dracarys]

I don't see any ripping off? Given the story and setting of the Three Musketeers what were you expecting?

[Trent]

Meh, you take the adventurous story of the Three Musketeers and turn it into a 3D Hollywood action flick. We need less directors like this guy....

[Darkmoon]

Was that...was that an airship? I admit, I'm not an avid three musketeers fan, but really?

As for the RE movies are made - I assumed it was following this recipe.

Take the Hopes and Dreams of the video games franchise.
Grind these into a fine powder.
Mix with the tears of actors who hope for dignity until a light and fluffy mix is created.
Then, throw in a tiny ammount of stuff from the series - just enough so it can be recognized, but not enough to satisfy.
Add Tits.
Bake and sell for millions.

Personally, I'm disturbed that he likes watching "kids" do stuff for hours on end.
