Resident Evil: Extinction

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Goddamn. This series has sucked so badly, I'm almost prepared to say that I actually could write it better than the fuckwits they hired.

I've said that about a lot of shows/movies. I even proved it to Gordon regarding Star Trek. (Gave him a rundown of where I'd take the series.)

Hell, I KNOW I could program FOX's schedule better than their current crop of idiots and I'd do it for half the price.

We're post-apocalyptic, now. They should have had the "nothing new is getting manufactured, now. We've got to conserve things like bullets."


Well, in most post-apocalyptic scenarios in which the greater majority of the population is dead(ish), one thing you don't have to worry about for a long time is bullets. Ammunition is often top of the list for people preparing for the end of civilization (in the south and midwest at least, maybe not so much on the coasts), and when many of those people have gone down there'll be plenty of ammo left to go around for quite some time. In theory.

I think that'll be the equivalent to the graveyard scene in the second movie.

Milla needs to make a Star Wars movie. She can either be an evil Jedi or a shetrooper.

The movie doesn't need much of a plot.

I had the same thought.

Well, I saw it.... bought the BluRay 3-pack of the series.

One thing about the audio of these BD versions...... explosions and stuff are way too loud compared to dialogue. If I turned the sound down to where the gunshots weren't making my ears bleed, then I couldn't hear what they were saying.

Anyway, 3rd movie....................... not sure what I think yet. Doesn't really feel like a RE movie, though.

And the bird scene is still stupid.

I thought it sucked.

Resident Evil was a video game about zombies created by an evil corporation. As Gordon said, this isn't a Resident Evil movie.

This could've been a good series if they had stuck to the corporate monster stuff. Now they have a world in which all human life is dead or in hiding, except for the corporate board who acts like they're still in business, oh and the Jedi chick.

What the fuck are they working for? The world is dead, so they have conquered it if that's their goal. Their families can't have anything close to normal lives or futures. Material possessions are worthless and there aren't any more hot chicks to impress. So what is their goal and why are they acting like business as usual?

The birds were horrible and made no sense. If they cleaned out Vegas, why didn't they also clean out the hordes and hordes of zombies around the science facility?

Did Uwe Boll direct this crap? If this is the best they can do, maybe the writers should go back on strike.
