4th RE movie thread

[Kronk]

OK, I know the movies are detestable, but since they're making a 4th, we may as well talk about it. I didn't see another thread on this, so if there is feel free to delete this one.

IMDB has it listed as a 2010 release with the tagline of "The Survival from the Afterlife"

The only cast member listed so far is the rumor of Jensen Ackles portraying Leon S. Kennedy.

Thoughts?

[Beanovsky Durst]

Mmm, super x-men psychic powers, virus infused, karate action Alice and her army of clones fight super human with suit, non-cool Albert Wesker. Leon is just a side character like every major RE hero portrayed to the silver screen.

And at the end of the movie, we get to see the Las Plagas investigation made by doctor "insert someone's name here"; so there will be a 5th movie; where Alice has a new power: Amadamtium claws that go out from her fingernails and laser vision. The bad guy is a former mexican drug lord called Ramon Salazar.

That's what the RE movies usually do, fuck up everything we knew. So don't take this post too seriously.

I'll applaud the movies for one thing, sticking to the T-virus.

Alice will go to Alaska, and the Events from the HORRIBLE CODE: Veronica comic book will occur.

[Darkmoon]

She'll likely go to that Alaska area where Claire was heading and get transport to across the sea, so she and her Clone Army can get to Japan. It's a little bit too far for them to fly there using there powers, you see. While there she'll take with her two new survivors...Leon and Ada. But Ada is really a spy! OH NOES!

But she'll change her mind and help, because she likes Leon...or Alice, if Anderson likes lesbians.

Wesker will deploy a huge number of B.O.W's, either hunters or Tyrants or something equally hideous, to counter the Clone Army. Because they're not really Alice they'll get killed while Alice and the Awe Brigade break into the Umbrella lab below Tokyo, where Wesker awaits.

Alice will melt Wesker with the power of her mind after he proves difficult to kill in hand to hand combat.

Then she'll do Leon and Ada, and possibly a few clones too. Because nothing sells like sex.

Greatest, movie, ever. I seriously can not wait much longer for this movie to come out, I'm having trouble containing myself here!
I really wish they would just start putting these movies DIRECT to sci-fi channel. That way, I won't have to gouge my eye balls out everytime I see the trailers for 3 months straight and hear the rave reviews on how the new film is a "Must see for Resident Evil fans, a sleek and sexy thrillfest"
And just when you think it's over, a couple months later ...OUT ON BLU-RAY TOMMOROW -Resident Evil: Afterlife, or whatever they'll end up naming this abomination to mankind.

[BadWolfX]

Blegh, there's no way this film can be good. I'm not even going to wait for details, just the sheer thought of a film with an Alice army makes me die a little inside.

We need more CG films by Capcom.

[Spiderpope]

Resident Evil Afterlife (Also Previously known as Rebirth) has been in development hell since the third film. I'm praying that it stays there, and that Paul W.S Anderson will go and feth up some other series of films. Cant he go make Ultraviolet 2 or something and let a decent writer/director have a shot at Resident Evil.

Let him release it and when it fails misserably we can all point and laugh at his misery.

cut,print,kill the pig.

seriously,this is going to suck just like the other three,why does he keep trying?

[Canas Renvall]

A. because his movies aren't that bad and B. because as much as people bitch about them, they apparently spend enough money that he can continue with the franchise.

I agree, Alice is a Mary Sue, but it's not like anybody doesn't have their "moment". Hell, in Degeneration, Leon is a Gary Stu, but Claire still gets her "moment" (kicking the zombie in the head and then gunning down the others around her).

In the original, Alice is much less of a Mary Sue. Rain guns up some people, Kaplan sacrifices himself (and it turns out that he actually doesn't, 'cause he grows a pair and shoots a zombie instead of himself), etc.

Alice overall is a Mary Sue in Apocalypse, but Jill kicks some ass in the basement and in the graveyard. Carlos beats some ass and chucks a knife in someone's face. Hell, even L.J. whacks a zombie with his car.

In Extinction, Alice is more of a Mary Sue, but still. L.J. and Carlos get their big moment in the motel, then Carlos gets another one when he blows up all the zombies with the tanker, Claire goes apeshit on some zombies with the rifle, K-Mart makes a hole appear in the head of the undead.

I want to say that it doesn't ruin the storyline like (insert game here), but it would be rude and I don't want to start a flame war.

And I don't say that to be rude, either. I truthfully don't want to start an argument about it.

Once again he'll make a ton of money and he'll laugh on us.......

That's my nightmare.

Oh and spiderpope, development hell? It hasn't even been two years since Extinction's release and you consider the fourth film to be in development hell? That's quite a stretch.

[Kronk]

I could give a rat's ass what Alice does in the movie. I just want to see more of the game characters on the screen. I loved what they did with Jill. Claire, not so much.

[belmont1997]

I expect there to be alot of naked Alice's if all the clones have clothes on which is very impossible to get Paul Anderson needs to drop dead on the resident evil series and let George A Remero handle it like he was gonna, CAPCOM's lame excuse for not letting George Direct the first one "Ohhh its not like the video games" LOOK AT THE FIRST THREE RESIDENT EVILS NOT SCARY NOT TRUE TO THE PLOT by the way in Resident Evil Apocolaypse LEON IS DEAD it said so in a newspaper when Jill is introduced.
