Resident Evil: Apocalypse - The Official Thread

Uh-huh. You going somewhere with this?

Somebody get this man a compass, because he's lost.

Is there a reason why you've now typed that for a comment that didn't use the word at all and another that used it properly?

Why? It was better then I, Robot.

I hope none of them were of Mila...she has no tits whatsoever.

Actually, if you want to see something disgusting, check out the new Maxim with her photo spread in it...I've never seen anything more disturbing in my life. She's trying to look all sexy in bras and panties, meanwhile she has the body of a 12 year old boy...no tits, no ass, no hips, no nothing. Her face looks okay when she's wearing makeup or is airbrushed massively but that's it. She's a pretty cool actress and does good fight scenes but there's just nothing physically appealing about her at all.

Mila is one of the three (briefly). We also got two hooker zombie girls chasing L.J. for a little bit.

Boxing match? wtf?

It was funny.

Anderson = decent director (Event Horizon kicked ass, and gee, wouldn't you know, he didn't write it) but horrible, horrible scriptwriter.

I don't think people seem to know what a director is responsible for. Complaining about something like the movie sucking story-wise (when it's based on a videogame who's mode and story makes the game despite shitty gameplay) is a valid complaint, but it's not Andersons fault (unless he wrote it). But I felt Anderson retreaded the same devices to startle people. I wasn't actually scared at one point in the movie, but I did jump a few times due to unexpected quick cuts and loud sounds while a zombie jumped out, and that's fine, but it was reused endlessly throughout the movie.

I wish he had built up more suspense.

He did write it. Both of them. And that shitty ass AvP as well.

[Drewbacca]

Well then those complaints are valid.

[bbobb]

Yep, that they are. Paul W.S. Anderson is currently second on my hit list... after Uwe Boll.

I ment what I said Dole. That whole Alice vs Nemesis thing towards the end sucked ass compared to what it really should have been.

I'll have to go back to playing the game just to clear out that memory.

Did I say I didn't get it? No. You know why? Because I understood what you meant. Now why don't you read what I wrote again instead of quoting the obvious.

[Drewbacca]

No, I got it the first time.

While technically a bad movie, I had low expectations going into it and they met them perfectly. I was entertained for the hour or so I was in there and thats all I could ask for.
That AliceXCodeVeronica moment at the end was HILARIOUS.
When Nemesis finally went "STARRRS!" a bunch of people, including me cheered which made the scene more hilarious than it was intended to be.
Freakshow Fight Club at the end was very WTFish.
Chick who played Jill was WAY TOO FREAKING HOT. Like. WOW. HOT.

This covers everything I was going to say (especially the Jill Valentine bit -- who was that?). 10x more absurd than even AvP, but I was entertained. I've always had a thing for M. Jovovich, though. It looked like she was doing a fair amount of the stuntwork herself, too, which is always cool to see.

I'm not fond of the super-chop editing treatment that action films are getting these days, but at least there were a few scenes where they pulled back, held the shot, and really showed some very solid action.

I loved Nemesis's chaingun...I just wish Umbrella delivered him like they did in the game. That's how you make an entrance (at leaast we got to see break through a wall).
