    well then if you never played the games then you werent the primary target audience for the product so you cant really expect it to be suited to your tastes if you dont know the plot of the series.

    I was supposed to go see it Friday night with my girlfriend, but she dumped me. I meet an awesome woman who is good looking, intelligent, funny and to top it off, she loves zombie movies, I do everything right, and I get dumped because she doesn't want to be in a relationship right now...

    But that's off topic.

    I want to see it, but now I don't know when I'll see it, none of my friends want to see it and I don't feel like going by myself.

    I don't need a video game to figure out the plot surrounding a series of movies. It's not an earth shattering experience, merely a movie among many that used the living dead theme perfected forty years ago. Only this one added ridiculous animals and strange creatures.

    This movie was tailored to appeal to horror fans in order to make money, not to satisfy video gammers.

    i gotta disagree with ya there, man. i think everyone who played these games (and trust me, if you haven't you're missing out, dude) was thinking: "man, this would make a killer movie!" these games defined "survival horror", which has been copied by all kinds of inferior knock-offs.

    after spawning a handful of sequels and beginning to see declining sales, the corporate jerks probably figured: "how else can we make $ of these kids? oh yeah, how about we make this into a movie?"

    unfortunately for us fans, they hired a bunch of retards to draft these films up, and they totally suck.

    both re1 and re2 are on tnt hd tonight, and even though i love watching movies on my new hd tv, i can't bear to watch these two crap-fests

    Indeed, if it wasn't for the gamers, the Resident Evil series would be playing in empty theatres.

    The video game was meant to satisfy horror fans. The movie was meant to draw in the gaming crowd, and hopefully get some horror audience spillover.

    I actually quite enjoyed the first RE, the second one was soooooooo soooooo terrible. This on looks like it might not be too bad, but trailers are often deceiving. It does have Nikki from HEROS though. So here's hoping for a nudie scene.

    I totally agree. I thought the first one was good fun and a decent zombie movie (as other have said, better than some of the crap off the Sci Fi channel, as of late).
