No joke, the Resident Evil show is garbage but Lance Reddick as the Weskers was top shelf entertainment. RIP.

    If it wasnt for Mila, Anderson wouldnt sell a single one of his movies...
  • Anderson: "Ladies and gentlements, my beautiful wife, the goddess of apocalypse"

    We didn't deserve Sienna. They didn't deserve Sienna. The best Jill depiction ever.

    I accidentally watched the Monster Hunter movie (stuck around for Tony Jaa), I’ve never played the games, but I remember thinking “why the hell is Milla Jovovich always the post apocalyptic Billy badass?” Then I learned who directed it, and it all made sense lol
  • @aliceporter6239
    Fun fact, each movie also has a novel tie in and those novels have the Herculean task of filling in the gaps between each movie. In particular the penultimate one actually details the entire battle at the White House (which it turns out IS against a rouge AI called the black queen) and details how Leon and Ada get eaten alive by a plant monster
  • What's so striking to me is how the stories come off as so incoherent considering Paul W. S. Anderson directed 4 of the 6 films and produced and wrote ALL 6 films. Like, it's entirely on him, he couldn't keep the story straight.
  • @disbot3482
    Dude what they did with Luthor was absolutely foul, like legit no secondary character can live one movie without dying or being absent and come back just to die.
  • @Capta1nAsh
    Biggest sin of Apocalypse was how much they made Jill look like a geek next to Alice.
  • @Xehanort10
    5:44 Poor Jill only gets one cool scene of headshotting a few zombies then Alice upstages her for the rest of the film.
  • @Hravokh
    "i was 9 when the second movie came out" uuurgh...be still, old beating heart.
  • @EvanTomiko
    Alien and Terminator has only two movies. The rest can be eliminated.
  • @watchmehope6560
    Man the actress of jill Valentine and ada wong were wasted on this trash. These two actors could've had their own bad ass RE live action
  • @sablebranwen2539
    I am convinced that Paul W.S. Anderson wrote the scripts for these movies without even rewatching his own movies. The fact that they not only shit all over the game lore, but can't even be consistent amongst themselves is just astonishing. Resident Evil deserves better, goddamn it!
  • @linkslayer15
    I remember when 1 of my friends came to school excited to tell us he saw Resident Evil. Quickly another friend asked if you really do get to see Milla Jovovichs bush. He answered yes and it was lovely
  • @kei2604
    It still blows me away. How ridiculous this movie series is. And how much more sense the video games make when you dig into lore.
  • @abrasiontest6954
    When Alice said "This is truly rac city." I stood up in my chair clapping.
  • @Fadexpl
    While I agree overall and never planning to watch many entries of this series I have some comments: 1. The first Resident Evil movie is actually pretty decent when judged on its own. 2. Alice is a highly trained operative, tasked with a mission of protecting secret underground facility pretty much on her own - jump to "She's literally Trinity" in RE2 is at least somewhat believable.
  • @ponchopalito3953
    When Alice's boyfriend/husband is also the director no enemies are gonna kill this person😆😂🤣💯👍
