Evil has evolved

 

[Aranea]

Having read the plot for this series, i expect it to not pass through season 1.

 

[DavidGzz]

Is this animated? I hope not.

 

[skit_data]

I hope it's better than the ones with Milla Jovovich.

 

[Makoto-Yuki]

I hope it's better than the ones with Milla Jovovich.

anything will be better than that.

 

[Nankatsu]

I hope it's better than the ones with Milla Jovovich.

First two are watchable, specially the first one.

After that it's always a downhill trip.

 

[Kuranghi]

I've never laughed more than when I read the leaked script this, I literally can't wait.

There was a giant zombie catapillar, a zombie with a dick on its face and teenage girls talking about zootopia porn. I promise that's neither made up or even exaggerated.

Agreed, the two first are ok for a hungover sunday but from the third and onwards its just a complete dumpsterfire.

Nothing against Jovovich as an actor but her husband is an awful director.

 

[ghairat]

I had to see the cast...

Spoiler

 

[Scotty W]

It's like someone out there is just pumping out the disappointment and can never get enough.

 

[manfestival]

somehow I imagine that this is worse than the milla movies

 

[Deerock71]

Evil has evolved

I'm gonna need those TPS reports.

 

[Arachnid]

After the last live action movie and the last CGI movie, wtf is the point of even being slightly excited for this? They clearly don't care about the property outside of video games.

 

[yurinka]

Is this animated? I hope not.

As I remember is a real action diverse and inclusive tv series.

 

[acm2000]

cant be worse than the last film was

 

[Lukaku's First Touch]

I had to see the cast...

yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah....

 

[brian0057]

I hope it's better than the ones with Milla Jovovich.

Given that the first film is still the only good adaptation of the series to date (which isn't saying much as it's still mid), I doubt it.

 

[Labolas]

Is this animated? I hope not.

Yeah, cuz RE has a such good track record with live action. /s

 

[3liteDragon]

Wasn't there an animated one in the works?

 

[March Climber]

Oh this is the one with Lance Reddick. There have been so many tv show and movie projects with the name Resident Evil lately it's hard to keep up. I know Capcom needs money but I don't know if it's worth making the brand so confusing for casual fans.

 

[.Pennywise]

 

[iorek21]

It was Silens all along

 

[adamsapple]

Lance Reddick is the only reason one should be watching this show.

 

[fart town usa]

Pretty sure it's gonna be shit, 100%.

I do think that the guy playing Wesker might be good though. Obvious differences in skin tone aside, if you watched 'The Wire' you can easily see that he'd be able to capture Wesker's vibe. Super cold/professional/sleek.

It all depends on the script though and the plot synopsis just sounds dumb as dumb can be.

 

[Kuranghi]

cant be worse than the last film was

Yeah about that... I've read a leaked script and all signs point to it being 10x worse that Welcome to Raccoon City, somehow.

The leaked script is offline now and I can't find it but I'd be happy to do a voice call with you and discuss what I remember, it was literally a laugh a minute I'm in UK though so not sure how times would line up. There's too much to put in a PM lol

 

[SEGA_2012]

Lance Reddick was a badass in Quantum Break, but this show looks garbage.

 

[Zeroing]

Quite frankly I don't expect much.
It seems like Netflix is going down on quality but that could be my own perception.

 

[acm2000]

im ok with it if its cheesy funny, but that film was just utter dogshit

 

[mckmas8808]

Lance Reddick is the only reason one should be watching this show.

I hate how our society has turned into this anti-diverse world. I mean it's always been that way, but now people are even against great actors not getting roles. Like you said, Lance Reddick is a great reason to watch this.

They made it so diverse that even the evil white guy got turned black. I see on twitter that the woke crowd is mad that the evil guy got turned black and the anti-woke people are mad for the same thing, but different reasons. That said, that cast photo looks like they have been hired by Resetera mods.

 

[Kuranghi]

Its not cheesy funny though, its cringe out of your skin level stuff. I'm not exaggerating when I say you aren't ready for how bad and/or weird this show will be, if they roughly stick to the leaked script that is.

I swear it was like every line almost was a joke, like someone thought whats the most cliched modern progressive stupid shit you could write and then tripled down on it.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Garbage evolved.

First draft.

 

[J3nga]

Looking at the cast I'm having hard time seeing what it has to do with Resident Evil.

 

[Kuranghi]

First draft.

Dear Jesus God I hope you're right:




If its somehow stupider then I will perforate my throat laughing.

 

[PhillMeCream]

Seeing just a regular blood vial is disappointing. At least have the same t virus vials as in the game

That is supposed to be a T Virus pathogen vial, it says so on the white sticker at least.

 

[El Pistolero]

I had cometely forgotten about the upcoming TV show, and for good reason: Both the latest movie, and the recent CG mini-series were SHITE! Can't wait to cringe while watching this...

 

[El Pistolero]

You're partially right: The quality of the shows/films is average on Netflix, but it has always been so. Imo, of course!

 

[EDMIX]

Agreed.

If Capcom made the gaming series and they don't care, I don't either. I'll watch the first season and give it a shot. For all we know this thing takes on a life of its own. A gaming series doesn't need to be verbatim 100% 1.1 exactly like the game to do well, most adaptions don't do that shit. This will likely get more views then the RE games get sales lol

 

[I collect VHS tapes]

I hope it's better than the ones with Milla Jovovich.

I dunno they had really good shows from Europe/ Korea etc
