Resident Evil: Extinction teaser trailer

I'll see it as well and it doesnt look like it will be better than either of the other two.. but it definitely wont be the worst video game movie

Damn, nice trailer. I can't wait to not watch this.

meh

Actually like these movies. I don't know why...

If there is a game made of this movie will the universe somehow collapse on itself? What about a book adaptation of the game-movie game? sort of a choose-your-own-adventure?

Wh... where... where was Vanilla Ice?

Ooh, a desert. That's a new one.

zombies and desert...can i have mummies?

well i liked both the first movies they were good action flicks and i think i will enjoy these the same.

Funny, I don't remember there being a desert in any of the RE games. Must have missed that part with all the awesome directing of the first two films. *sighs*

Oh right, I just remembered that the Resident Evil 5 trailer was in a desert town. It still doesn't change the fact that zombies in the desert are called mummies.

Ahhhh! What. The. Fuck. Sony? What is so god damn hard about making Resident Evil about.. oh, I don't know, Resident Evil? Make these things using CG and stop trying to make it 'realistic'.Fuck the mainstream audiences, make these films for the fans that play the fucking games, then maybe you'll get more people excited about seeing it. Shit, I'm sure a few RE fans could make a better movie using Maya and Final Cut Pro. Jesus Christ.

I gotta say, I kinda like the idea of a setting that was different from the games. I mean, RE4 did a good job in taking the location somewhere new, and it really worked. Besides, if you look at the previous movies in simple terms, they didn't go horribly off topic. The zombies were there, the suspense was there, and the action was there. I still can't understand why people profess their dislike for these movies all the time. RE1 was good for how quickly they went, RE2 was ok, and tried harder to follow the game, and people are already saying this is gonna suck after the teaser. At least wait until more footage comes out to judge.

People who go through an embalming process involving removing organs and lots of gauze are mummies. Dead people walking around in street clothes and specifically trying to eat others are zombies. Get your heads straight.

Ive never been huge into the games, but doesn't this like totally depart from the storyline and cannon?

I can tell you what is wrong with these films in two words:

Paul. Anderson.

The man can direct, and direct very, very well. He just can't write to save his life. To quote the Simpsons:

"I could puke in a fountain pen and mail it to the monkey house and get a better script!"

He really should just stick to directing. He's much better at that.

wishful thinkers saw the first one, idiots saw the second one and f*cking morons who still wonder why videogame-based movies never do justice to their source will see the third.

it would be nice for us real RE fans if capcom would at least make some sort of an apology for allowing one of gaming's most respected franchises to be so disgraced but they're probably too embarrassed at this point.

@ Necros

I really don't think mummies in what looks like the ruins of a major American city would make any more sense than Uwe Boll doing anything correctly. And I can't really agree with the idea that it's not RE anymore. I mean, RE4 didn't have anything to do with zombies in the sense of the previous games, nor the Umbrella Corp, as was customary of all the games as the key villain (I might be wrong. I haven't played though RE4 in about 2 years.). Granted, your point about not making this movie a Resident Evil movie is a good one, but I would rather see it before I write it off completely.

@ carg0
"F*cking morons" are the people who spend more than a buck 50 to see a video game movie that was doomed before the script was finished (i.e. House of the Dead, Bloodrayne, Postal, Dungeon Siege). And besides, you can't fault Capcom if you don't like the movies. I am happier that someone tried and fell short to make a movie based on a game franchise than to just sell the rights to a hack or not try at all. At least the movies reached enough RE fans that weren't looking for an Oscar winning film, just something somewhat entertaining.

Hurry get to da choppa!

@Fronz, hey. The Good Shepherd was a good movie. Its not The Departed or Children of Men, but it was worth seeing in theaters.

Im not sure why, but I think this movie will be a massive steaming pile of shit.

Hmmm, definitely getting the "Beyond Thunderdome" vibe.

All it needs is a Tina Turner cameo, as a zombie.

Hey Now! This movie could be good.

Is it just me...or does Chris from this movie look exactly the same as the Chris in the horrible Resident Evil 1 Opening for PS1?

@Bahamut_Zero:

They already have books based on the last 2 movies.
