Resident Evil Damnation

[News Bot]

The thing that surprises me more out of this entire discussion is that Benford was even involved with Leon being forced to join the US govt forces in the first place, given the length of time between RE2's events and RE6's.

I haven't kept up on where each connection comes from, but where is it that Benford was involved with the events in Raccoon and the start of Leon's career? Other than him saying of course he wants to come clean with the coverup I mean.

It's stated in his profile on the BH6 website. He was a "high-ranking government official" at the time, and an intelligence agent for the "secret military agency" he recruits Leon into.

[Rombie]

Cheers NB. I can see why they'd script that because it would lend weight to him revealing some hidden truths behind the event to the public if he was involved with the original Raccoon event.

It's not implausible that Leon would, after being in the employ of the US for so long now, actually consider him a friend. I and only mean if that had been implied in the original version as well you could understand after all this time Leon may have seen the events and people with a different view than he first did given what else has happened since. But I guess it's alterations for localization run rampant again as you say.

I hope like most of the other games in the franchise you have the chance to play/watch the whole game in Japanese at some time, I'll be interested to know what else the PU crew find if this alone is coming up from trailers and demos.

It think there is too much unmarked spoiler from RE6 here, I loved the movie, it's not perfect but it's a RE movie, the fights between the likers and the tyrant are fantastic.

Now I have two questions.

Spoiler:

show spoiler

When Ada asks Leon when they're going to pick up where they left off "that night,", when was that?, the last time as far as we now was at the end of RE4, and it was not night.

Regarding the president in the movie, he has some "lacerations" in his back, is she infected or it's just a mark from her military days?.

[Vito]

If he wasn't friends with him then why the hesitation to shoot? The people defending Leon being a dumbass used the friend excuse. If he truly was an asshole to Leon then why not just shoot him and do a happy dance?

My guess is that Leon finally respected him because he was coming clean about RC.

Also for some guys saying Spoiler:

It's Carla and not Ada: Isn't Ada created on Dec 2012? It can't be Carla.

Neither are explained. Ada could have been referring to Raccoon City, but as I said about this particular line earlier, I imagine the 'shippers are going to take it a whole other way entirely. Regarding the president, I think they're probably just scars and not a sign of infection.

I suspect Damnation will have a picture-in-picture track similar to Degeneration's that will explain some of the murkier details of the plot when it's released on DVD/BluRay.

It finally popped up for Canadians, so I just got to watch it. I liked it allot more than Degeneration, allot more! These Plaga-infected were allot more interesting than the zombies from the first film. I just wish Mercer was better at delivering those one-liners. =\

JD was adorable as fuck. <333

[[STARS]TyranT]

Absolutely loved it! I appreciate it's kinda stand alone, and only really sets up Ada's 'position' and Leon's apparent lack of faith in his government, but on the whole I thought it was good solid fun.

My thoughts.

Courtney Taylor tries bless her, but she's absolutely no match for me on Sally Cahill. She sounds the same, the but the acting is just not quite there.

Matthew Mercer must be an alias of Paul Mercier, it's frightning it really is.

Lickers are amazing when taking out of the constrains of a game.

And Tyrant's are unbelievable, honestly this is the first time I think i've actually been frightened by how utterly relenetless and powerful a Tyrant is, Leon and Buddy barely escaped with their lives from a single one, and had the deus ex machina not existed with the 'help' at the end they stood absolutely no chance. Loved Leon's attempt to use a rocket launcher to kill one though, I think we were all thinking "Use a fucking rocket launcher!!! It always works!!" and he tried, to sadly no avail. But they looked amazing, like proper amazing.

Ada/Carla/Carla/Ada, who was it throughout? She's a little out of character in that she goes psycho and full on tries to kill the President, but then at the same time she retains all the spy stuff that we expect (like dagger in shoes.etc.etc.)



I think.....



Degeneration will stand the test of time better of the two, but they are still two rather marvellous movies. And stand proud to show the world you can have a Resident Evil film without the inanity of the Anderson movies.

[Kei_M]

I'm more willing to assume it's Ada. The difference in personality could be attributed to direction, translation, actress interpretation, etc etc. If it weren't actually Ada I'm sure Leon would have picked up on it or they would have made more of a reference to her not being who she seemed. I'm assuming Carla is still meant to be a plot twist that just got spoiled too early, so there'd be no point in including a character no one should know exists yet.

[TheBatMan]

Agreed with the above. Nothing to indicate this would be Carla. Spoiler:

Carla was created so Simmons could frame Ada. In this film they are still working together. Perhaps it is Ada's refusal to send him the cultivated plaga that terminates their relationship and sets Simmons out on the path for revenge?

Absolutely! Simmons obviously has had some connection with Ada, otherwise why would he wish to frame her? Showing a connection between the characters makes Ada look more guilty of being CarlAda.

Hey can someone spoiler tag what this RE6 spoiler from the damnation credits is for me?

There's nothing really to spoil, there's just some new footage. The warnings were probably just meant for those trying to avoid all RE6 updates =\

That's a good shout there Bats regarding the last scene with Ada and Simmons. I think that'll set up the foundation of the relationship we'll see in Resident Evil 6.

They sound nothing alike.

[alexdz]

Now that's a good movie. Good story, good characters, good fight scenes and those last 40 minutes, holy shit! Tyrants vs Lickers was just fucking perfect.
