(found this while searching for a completely different post)

Is this like Batman Begins, but with Resident Evil?

  • (- Milla Jovovich will once again reprise her role as Alice)

Expectations hit rock bottom!

  • (- Milla will not have the powers that she’s obtained in the series thus far)
  • (- Milla will not be the lead)
  • (- lead role to be played by Sienna Guillory, who is reprising her role as Jill Valentine)
  • (- film will follow Valentine as she deals with the initial viral outbreak in Raccoon City caused by the Umbrella Corporation)

Expectations...rising!

  • (- no word on Paul W.S. Anderson’s return as director)

Expectations rise to point where I'm actually somewhat cautiously optimistic that this won't suck!

I usually hate Continuity Reboots but honestly, the Resident Evil film series needs one, starting with a remake that uses the George A. Romero script (that I've heard was actually faithful to the game).

Barring that, they could just record someone playing the game and make that the movie.

Can't they just let these movies end? It's obvious from the last movie that they were running out of ideas. You've done The End of the World as We Know It, and a Wesker that even DC Douglas could approve of. What else is there? You've, uh... well, "peaked" isn't exactly the word for it...

Do not obey in advance.

They could always do a sequel to Resident Evil: Degeneration. That wasn't a terribly great movie either but more in its style would be welcome.

Or use the Romero Script... although, I was just reading it the other day and I wasn't terribly impressed with Romero's vision either. It's starting to seem to me like RE doesn't really work as anything but a video game.

[up] Actually they are making a sequel to Degenaration.

It's called Resident Evil: Damnation and Leon is confirmed as a main character.

Anyways

this whole film series is a Guilty Pleasure for me but honestly I would like them to start anew with no trace of Alice and better use of characters. Hopefully we'll get that wish in a couple of years.

Yes YES!

I actually didn't know until recently that there were Resident Evil films after the first two. Kind of surprised, really. I thought the first two were good "popcorn" films, good mindless action, but I really don't like the superhero vibe I get from Alice. I'd rather she be an ordinary person who does extraordinary things, like Jill and Claire are.

Of course, they could always drop the whole Resident Evil thing and just make a Dino Crisis movie (and we could make a drinking game out of how many critics compare it to Jurassic Park)

It gets better.

In Damnation, we actually get to see BOW's used as their manufacturer intended: for warfare.

So... armies of Tyrant mowing down armies of... armies?

That's nice and all, but I'd still like to see a movie about Resident Evil learning how to fight from an ancient cult that he later finds out destroys cities that have become "too corrupted." Then after having his falling out where he spares the leader, he moves back to his childhood home and tries to clean up corruption his way...

That's what I imagine when I see the name "Resident Evil Begins" anyway. What would the second and third movies be called?
