2007’s Resident Evil: Extinction left itself wide open for a sequel, so you probably already knew it was coming. Now, new rumors surrounding the upcoming (and obvious) sequel have hit the Internet.
Word on the street is that Paul Anderson will once again be writing the screenplay, and once again won’t be coming back to direct. The rumors suggest that in terms of the film’s tone, it’ll be closer to Resident Evil: Apocalypse, “but with better dialogue.” (What, no “GTA, Motherfucker! Oh, yeah! Ten points”?)
If the Resident Evil films did anything right, it’s throwing in scenes of Milla Jovovich kicking ass. Well, those are back — a martial arts choreographer has been tapped for the film. And if rumors are to be believed, Milla will possibly be kicking ass in Alaska and Tokyo.
My wife and I just got around to watching Resident Evil: Extinction via Netflix streaming the other night. At one point, Alice (played by Jovovich) finds a dirt pit filled with hundreds of dead clones of herself. Their bodies — clothed a skimpy red dresses — are bloodied, twisted, and bruised. My wife knows the score.
“Oh my God,” she says. “that’s a lot of near-naked Milla Jovoviches. How many guys do you think masturbated to this scene?”
A lot, honey. A lot.
