The Central "Jill Valentine" Discussion Topic

[Darinl1979]

No, no, no, no, no...PLEASE, no. One ending, please. One straightforward canon ending.

I hope alternate endings are a thing of the past, really I do, because even though MGS1, my favorite game of all-time has alternate endings, I hate having to do something one specific way to get the canon ending I want. There should be one ending, that's it...especially with this whole Chris and Wesker thing coming to the forefront.

Well if they kept it simple ala MGS1 then I don't see it being a problem. The way you got the two different endings in that game was rather simple and didnt require changing up anything all that much. However in regards to this I hope they just keep it one way. You either save Jill and she lives or she dies. If they give you the choice or letting her die or killing her or working together to save her...we then have to deal with a bunch of "omgz, which ending is canon" debate.

And that's exactly what I want to avoid. The 3 years between MGS1 and MGS2 were spent more on wondering which ending was real than being excited for the sequel to come out...and I don't want that to happen with my second-favorite series.

Wasn't that debate mostly about Meryl's fate?If so I could see similarities

I too am a Jill Valentine fan but probably not the same as alot of people around here from what I can tell. Its actually quite depressing to know that alot of her popularity stems from "Whoa Jill in Resident Evil 3 is hot, shes my new favorite character". Its even more depressing when I see arguements on forums between fans and haters, haters express their understandably valid points and fans go one of two ways. They will also put out valid points or they will post half naked fan-art/hentai that is seemingly supposed to help their cause.

Jill is awesome but not because she is hot, at least in my opinion. I found that she was believable as a female heroine unlike alot of others that were around at her time. People used to tote how amazing Lara Croft was and I honestly could never buy into that hype. Of course this all could change depending on Jills role in Resident Evil 5, but heres to hoping it doesnt.

Why do you have to take things so seriously? I mean, 'half naked fanart to help their cause'? 'Valid points'? Come on, I'm a guy, I happen to like Jill's looks more than Chris's. Wow, how weird, huh?

If you seriously think that Jill's 'character' is the sole most important thing about Jill we should be focusing on, well, okay.

Generally, I see Jill as being a product of the right place and the right time. Resident Evil didn't have a really hot character before RE3, where Capcom produced a hot Jill Valentine. The clothes helped, because fans hadn't seen Jill like that before. And the new fans just liked the look, and maybe the contrast between Jill and the zombies. And the character.

I do think Lara Croft is amazing too. Maybe a bit too 'universal', which is why I like Jill more.

The "Los Jilluminados" are tainting this website when they bring her up in every other topic, just as Darkmoon (and others) mentioned.

Thank you for propagating that phrase.

[Jill's Boob]

Thank you for propagating that phrase.

Yes sir! I would love nothing more than to propel this term into the world of cyberspace. You truly are a genius for coining the phrase "Los Jilluminados."

I just didn't know if I should have put a copyright symbol next to it, in each instance that I used it...

[Mr. Spencer]

You flatter me. The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.

Sorry, just wanted an opportunity to shoehorn in a Bond film quotation.

[ValentineKnight]

Wondering something: What would you guys think if Jill became the Alice of the RE games?

[Mr. Spencer]

I'd probably commit a hate crime. Yet another reference to a film series that was going to happen but they never actually made because it would have been terrible.

Why do people keep referring to these things? Remember when people started talking about that "Terminator 3" film? What was that all about?

[ValentineKnight]

Yeah I wouldn't be too fond of the idea myself.But I'd tell myself atleast she aint dead and I can still play as her.

I'd write Capcom a very angry letter.

[Jill's Boob]

But turning her into an Alice clone wouldn't be the worst thing that has happened to Jill. The worst thing that ever happened to Jill was taking the plucky, resourceful ex-Delta Force woman from RE1 and placing her in slutty attire (for the benefit of horny young game players who fantasize about digital women) and having her run around Raccoon City.

That is by far the worst crime committed toward Jill Valentine.

What kind of woman with military & law enforcement training would take to the streets (overrun by the living dead), pursued by a deadly killer, in a tube top (with no bra underneath as my profile image confirms) and a miniskirt? She's running around with her flesh exposed to FLESH eating zombies, in a pair of heeled boots. Any sane person would have broken into a sporting goods store or a military vintage store, and put on some appropriate clothing. You know, maybe also added some pockets to carry items?

But hey, lets turn Jill into a slut.

Finally, we agree on something.

[Vector]

The best part is, Capcom's rationale for her "casual" attire was because she was leaving town.

Personally, if I were a woman, I'd wear a tube top and short-ass skirt when I was about to escape a zombie-infested city.

I certainly am not surprised now, after seeing the latest trailer, who BMW is now.
