Discuss Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City

Looks closer to the source material than the Paul Anderson movies but it's nice to see the love for dodgy CGI remains!

It looks very faithful. And for that reason I will probably enjoy it, lots of nods to the games there. Whether it will genuinely be a good film or not I'm not so sure about. I think it will be better than Anderson's films though.

The CGI was terrible. You dont need to throw everything from the game at the film. They should have gotten a bigger budget if they had such grand plans for this film. In saying that, I might see it just because Im such a huge fan of the games. But I mean it cant be worse than the other RE films right guys?...Right??

The other RE films looked better than that.

I liked the first one, saw the second one and that was it for me. I didnt need to see anymore of this abortion of a series.

We've got an all-white cast, who's mowing down and taking flame throwers to the inhabitants of a place called Raccoon City. Anyone want to take bets as to how quickly Al Sharpton will be calling for a boycott of this movie, and how many op-eds will be churned out, handwringing over just how problematic this flick is?

Worry ye not because Leon Kennedy is now Mexican and Jill Valentine is mixed race.

The special effects in the trailer were shockingly bad you really think you'll probably enjoy whatever that was?

No, I won't. But just because you don't enjoy certain elements of a film doesn't mean you won't enjoy other elements. I like the costumes and the environments. It brings me nostalgia. I know exactly what it is I'm putting on, I'm under no misconception. As I've said, I don't necessarily think it will be a good film.

Well yeah, we cant have an all white cast that would be racist. And to close to the source material.

Did the games ever really specify what race any of these characters were? In all seriousness, I'm just amazed that anyone is going to try to keep this series going, without Jovovich and the Paul Anderson who isn't that Magnolia dude

Umm its called having eyes. Leon is beyond white and so is Jill. Thats like saying we dont know what race Ada is...

The jury is still out as to what ethnicity Ada and the rest of those Turtorro's are

Ada Wong who is Chinese-American is played by Lily Gao who is Chinese-Canadian. The travesty! So woke! 😫
