Resident Evil: Afterlife back on for this year photo

Last we heard, the latest Resident Evil movie was pushed into 2011 due to extra time being needed to ready it up for the third dimension (OMG 3D OMG!). Basically, you were all terribly distraught by the news, as evidenced by these comments here.

As it turns out, Resident Evil: Afterlife is back on for 2010. As a matter of fact, it's actually coming out prior to the release date given to us before the initial delay: September 10 is the new day of reckoning. Apparently, the additional work needed for special effects and 3D trickery wasn't so necessary after all.

ShockTillYouDrop, the Web site that broke the news, also informs us that Afterlife would have been directly competing with Cabin in the Woods, another horror flick (an awesome-looking one at that), for 3D screens had the January 2011 date been finalized. There. Are you happy now, Resident Evil movie fans?

ZOMBIE FACE INTO SCREEN! (My imaginary, but possibly real?) addendum to the script.

Mehh I didn't enjoy the last two as much as I did for the first Resident Evil movie :/ regardless I'm going to check it out and see which character's their going to put in the movie from the game. I'm sure Wesker will actually be fighting in this one I hope.

Cabin in the Woods? Hmm I shall check that out now.

What is Umbrella Corp thinking? Do they think that releasing a virus that will create chaos all over the planet will be good for business?

Milla in 3D, rawr. Although some of her features aren't really 3D.
I might get some stone throws, but I actually like the movies. Not great but nice.

I enjoyed the first movie, but the second degenerated into a mindless action movie. When she crashed through the 2nd-story church window on a Harley, I promptly turned it off. Not sure what the 3rd movie did.

The first one was "How close can we come to the game without dieing on our ass?". It wasn't that good, in my opinion.

The second was "Can we make it in the same place with the same story roughly, but be a decent action flick?" It was okay.

The third was "Fuck it, let's start off with a rape scene then just have action." It was the better of the three.

Hated the first, hated the second, hated what I could stand to watch of the third, and then Degeneration. Lol.

Yes. Yes I am happy. I was pretty disappointed when they said it'd be pushed back to 2011.

And seconding Lugtor. 3D Milla is a delicious thought.

@Chronic Logic

Environment comes last before business with big corporations like Umbrella. How are they still in 'business' in a post apocalyptic world anyway? O.o Isn't the stock market taken over by zombiezz now?

The third Resident Evil is bleh >.<
