History WMG / ResidentEvil

* Maybe all of the zombies are normal people, and are just seen as zombies because of [[the protagonists' drug-induced hallucinations Series/{{Spaced}}]]

[[WMG: How Chris, Jill, Barry and Rebecca ''all'' made it out alive in Resident Evil 1:]]

* To use another RE1/REmake example, Wesker is shown being "killed" by the Tyrant in two different ways. After the first battle with the Tyrant, on Jill's side, Wesker's body is gone. On Chris's, it's still there. Chris only assumed Wesker was dead instead of actually checking (he has less medical experience than Jill and Rebecca, as demonstrated by his inability to make V-JOLT), making Wesker's return in Code Veronica that much more surprising to him. It's also no coincidence the character you're playing as gets [[CrowningMomentofAwesome to destroy the Tyrant with a rocket launcher]] while the other one is apparently unconscious. And then previously in RE0, Rebecca previously had two run-ins with a Tyrant, as well as countless hunters, but in Chris's story, she's relegated to possibly getting killed by a hunter if [[BigDamnHeroes Chris doesn't save her as she cowers in fear]]. Now that we [[AlternateCharacterInterpretation know Chris likes being thought of as a badass who saves the day]], is it any wonder why he apparently looks like he was ripped out of an action movie in RE5?

* Interestingly enough, in the remake of RE2 leon asks Ada was Umbrella selling these monsters to the US military, or some other military. Ada corrects him by saying they're not selling the monsters, but the virus that makes them. Notice how she didn't answer his question on who Umbrella is selling it to? Arguably that's a subtle dead giveaway.

[[WMG: At some point in the future, some guy or lady will say [[AllYourPowersCombined "Ah screw it. I'll make the most OP virus ever!!"]] and every single Resident Evil protagonist in the franchise will team up like ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar''. Yes, even [[TheScrappy Ashley and Agent.]]]]
Two whole decades worth of bio-terror attacks have pretty much turned the world into a massive horror show for anyone that isn't the protagonists and sometimes not even that rule applies (Ask [[spoiler: Piers]]) with no signs of it stopping. Some person says "Enough is enough. No more bio-terror attacks that turn people into zombies!!" He then proceeds to whip up a cocktail of '''''every single virus in the franchise''''' to make the ultimate virus thinking that he is making the ultimate vaccine and ending the zombie-based bio-terrorism for good.

The resultant global fallout will make Raccoon City, Tall Oaks and Tatchi look like an average day instead a news worthy incident.

Bonus points if it's from 1) a disillusioned member of The Family, 2) it's current unknown leader, 3) leader of the third organisation, 4) one of the protagonists going through a HeelFaceTurn to prevent people in the future from learning the alphabet with the viruses.

** Brad was also aware of Nemesis' mission to kill S.T.A.R.S. members (beyond Nemesis simply saying "stars"), implying Nemesis has already killed at least one. The only surviving members after RE 1 are Chris, Jill, Rebecca, Barry and Brad. Brad dies at the start of RE 3, Barry is confirmed alive at the end of the game, and of course Jill and Chris are still around. However, Rebecca has not been seen in a game since, lending strong evidence to the conclusion above.
** Possibly confirmed as true, the official Biohazard/Resident Evil companion book updates every character's status, and Rebecca is listed as deceased around the RE2/3 time period. It appears that Nemesis found her...
** This has likely been {{Jossed}}, actually. There is a pre-''[=RE6=]'' stage play in Japan known as ''BIOHAZARD THE STAGE'' that was overseen by Capcom themselves, meaning it's either canon or the next closest thing. In it, Rebecca is shown to be working as an university professor and also serves as an advisor to the BSAA, much like Barry in ''Revelations 2''. She's even been on several containment missions and has been active since at least 2005, one year after ''[=RE4=]'' and the same year the events of ''Degeneration'' took place.

[[WMG:Movie-Wesker is [[ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum an Agent.]]]]

In [[UntilDeathDoUsPart another series I read]], the main character has a pair of special sunglasses designed to make up for his lost eyesight. Aside from that, they also have a program that can analyze the data of whatever guns and weapons his enemies are using. In addition to that, someone can even look up information on things via the internet, and send him the data in the midst of battle. They can also give him a possible trajectory of the bullets based on the data it's analyzed. My theory is that as of Resident Evil 5 (specifically as of the Spencer mansion incident), Wesker's sunglasses do the same thing: pop up information on his HUD during battle and show pathways of bullets. That's the only way I can make sense of how he can dodge fire from automatic weapons and not get hit; I get that he has super human reflexes and all that, but still. The time it would take for him to look at someone's gun, guess how they're going to fire it, and dodge would still be long enough that he should get hit every now and then. Especially when you have some people who just fire blindly. But if he has someone on MissionControl feeding him info via his glasses, then he can avoid all that and just focus on dodging the attacks and in turn kicking the shit out of people. It would also explain why he ALWAYS HAS THEM ON regardless unless someone actually forces them off his face. Granted, anything before maybe RE4 and RE5 is mostly RuleOfCool still.
