Dropped immediately. My requirement for a RE director is that you have to despise the Anderson movies, despise RE4 for what it did to the game series, and not only love the classic games, but also a love for the 70s and 80s horror and action movies that inspired them.

>>212710480 (OP)
Is there a good YouTuber that plays these games, or Red Dead Redemption, Final Fantasy, whatever, and knows what they're doing, not blabbering on, no words spoken by them in fact, and not speed runners, doing tricks. I mean, someone that shows the story, and doesn't waste your time. Cause that I'd watch for ten hours over a week.

DOOM with The Rock would be a more faithful adaptation. There are what, 12 Resident Evil movies already? Do we need moar?

>>212710568
You sound gay.

>>212710568
>despise RE4 for what it did to the game series
The bartering merchant, over shoulder pov, the quipping, all vast improvements over the old games.

I can't wrap my head around why people are obsessed with having things adapted, just play the fucking games

>>212710568
Solid take.

You’re an invasive fauna. A spruce bark beetle that came in and completely destroyed the ecosystem.

>>212710934
You got to admit roundhouse kicking the zombies was pretty badass

>>212710568
Overly praising 4 does send negative signals. The first game that should be mentioned in a conversation about Resident Evil is RE1. Of course, RE4 is one of the best games ever made, but it's only an "okay" Resident Evil game.

Of course, the story in all RE is throwaway and serves the medium of video games - which is fine. So, sticking anywhere near close to the a story as shit as the RE series is a bad idea. Just capture the broad strokes of RE 1 and 2: cops investigate a spookey mansion in the woods outside of Raccoon City. Turns out it's run by Umbrella - a big pharma corp that makes bioweapons for the government and essentially owns the city. The cop's team leader is an Umbrella plant. Movie ends in mansion blowing up.

That's literally all they need to follow from the games.

Get back on the peloton buddy

To me the essence of RE is tactically clearing rooms one by one as opportunity or ammo allows. Then coming across puzzles/unexpected boss fights that reveal a larger corporate conspiracy leading to the final boss.

There is a zero percent chance any modern movie reboot can do this. 50% of the movie will be generic, ugly white woman in danger panning shots (while her mouth hangs open). 49% will be side characters not up to date with the plot trying to catch up and maybe, MAYBE 1% of the movie will involve a STARS member opening a door and finding a zombie inside.

>>212710480 (OP)
What I find funny about RE adaptations is that adapting the first game is incredibly easy. It just plays out like a haunted house/conspiracy story and then they blow it up.

These fucking retards can't write a script for shit, I can do 1 in 30 seconds -

>mixture of RE1 and 2 lore
>early morning zombie outbreak from Raccoon city subway system
>no one knows how it's happening
>thanks to police incompetence and homeless druggies the zombie outbreak goes unnoticed for a full day and at night spills out into the streets
>the subway exit is right near a police station, middle of the night, station overwhelmed
>STARS members are woken up, report for duty, >a senior STARS member tells them the station is too dangerous, report to a nearby "spencer mansion-esque" building
>most of the team is locked inside, begin the plot of RE1 and Spencer story
>the building that STARS are locked in and the subway system are linked to a massive underground Umbrella lab

Neat, tidy, add in your big butt latinas, monsters, and attention to detail on the gun choreography and you have a winter movie hit.

As long as all the females are hot it should be good. I wanna see sexy Jill Valentine, Claire Redfield and Ada Wong.

You got a link to that interview? I kind of want to use it for something.

Guarantee that for me anon, and by that I mean present a convincing argument as to why I should trust your unproven product specs when it's been proven more than a literal dozen times over that the opposite of what you're asking for makes money hand over fist

Cast em

>>212710480 (OP)
All due respect, Anderson's first film was accurate to the feel of the games without being fully lore-accurate.

>>212711818
I'll play Jill!

Add in no commentary when searching them.

>>212710568
Pretty much this.

>>212711884
Dont be silly anon, Jill is a girl!

RE1 but in 1st person would be interesting

>>212710480 (OP)
As long as he keeps it mostly accurate, I don't care. You can't be 100% lore-accurate because the franchise is full of plotholes and videogame logic. Even capcom doesn't stick to 100% accuracy when they re-cover the events of previous games. But the core story is interesting and hopefully he sticks to it

>>212712080
>Faggots like you are who Cregger means when he says it's impossible to please everyone
It's not unreasonable to draw a line between the original series and 4+, which for all intents and purposes is a game series all its own. Fans of one won't necessarily be fans of the other, and that's easily understandable. And if the director says "I love RE4, I can't wait to adapt RE1" that doesn't give the impression that it will be a good adaptation of classic RE.

It' not that fucking hard, man
>cast actors who look like the characters
>put stuff from the game in the movie
>don't put stuff that's not form the game in the movie
That's literally all you have to do to make fans happy. Why won't you fucking do it

>>212710617
Why not just play them yourself?

>>212710792
No kidding. Or in the case of shit like Resident Evil, just watch the movies they ripped off.

Elena Kampouris as Jill.

>>212712966
Pandering to the khhv crowd is a sure fire way of destroying one's artisitc credibility as a director.

>>212711986
That's not hard.

I'm tired of pretending Wesker isn't the hero of the story.

>>212710728
An adaptation of 4 would be far, far better and more interesting than rehashing some tired old zombieslop. Which is exactly what this project is. It's about a courier named Bryan who delivers a package to a remote hospital and gets caught in a zombie outbreak.

>>212713486
If he suplexes a zombie in the movie then its kino

>>212711818
Jill - Emily Blunt
Claire - Elle Fanning
Rebecca - Daisy Ridley
Sherry (adult) - Sydney Sweeney
Ada - Jung Ho-yeon
Ashley - Cailee Spaeny
Sheva - Zoë Kravitz

>>212712598
The difference between re1 and re4 are gameplay. Storywise, they both carry the same tone of cheese, reminiscent of action-horror b-movies from the 80s.
If you can adapt 4 well, you can adapt 1 well, and vice-versa.

>>212710480 (OP)
Did this script leak like the one for Weapons did?

>>212711824
I definitely remember the pulsing Marilyn Manson music and pumping millions of rounds into hundreds of zombies while also doing flying kicks into dogs’ faces in the original Resident Evil, totally.

>>212712080
>Faggots like you are who Cregger means when he says it's impossible to please everyone

I’m not sorry that I refuse to eat the slop, goyim.

>>212711997
I played the second one on PS1 as a kid, but never finished it. Should I start with that, or watch the first one. I kind of want to see someone who hasn't just learned to while his own ass play the game I once played, but don't know if the first game is important for the story.

>>212710480 (OP)
this can go either way
resident evil games have universally bad stupid retarded characters and story
maybe 1 story was kinda acceptable because its not as out there stupid as code veronica for example and resident evil4 story gets a pass because its basically a so bad its good b movie

>>212711248
best take in the thread

requesting again for the 1000th time if anyone has the "hbo tier" pilot script for the RE series that didn't go ahead

>>212710480 (OP)
Are the games really that hard to adapt? Even the last reboot fumbled it.

>don't just follow the games stories
>always dogshit
Shocker
>>212717161
This managed to be worse than the Anderson movies

The Japanese camp of the games simply wont translate to screen. all the cgi movies are complete shit and Im a huge RE fan. The best they could possibly do is lean heavily on the violence and horror but they refuse to do that and go for an R movie.

It will suck. maybe less than the other shit ones but it will suck
