J4MES OX4D 10,060 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Jesus christ no wonder Netflix is bombing subscribers - yet another disgraceful Resident Evil attempt at bringing it to the screen that disregards source material spectacularly. Not only that, this one seems to be even more tone deaf than imaginable. Hard to believe that low budget Welcome to Raccoon City movie from last year was about as close as we'll ever get to a traditional Resident Evil movie/TV tie-in. The original RE films were way off the mark and there was no excuse with those as they were during the brands's height but this Netflix imagining is just so wide of the mark, it doesn't even resemble the series or the latest games in the slightest.

Riff Machine 2,108 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 They need to give up on RE as a series/movie. Every time they've tried, they've just bombed it so bad. I don't know how they can screw up something so bad when literally all the material they need is in the games! It's so laughable. And screw Netflix too. I cancelled my membership a few weeks back after the latest price increase announcement.

The3rdWalker 1,274 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 It's impressive how each version they give us, it continues to be hot garbage. RE could be such a crazy cool series, as are the games but nope. I agree, they should quit making them.

GazzaGarratt 11,066 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 We do get to the stage that people forget we don't have to make every game into a movie or series. I think RE on a TV screen actually works better with the animated movies personally. Some of them made are pretty solid watches, better than some of the ones made with Milla Jovovich (even though i'm a sucker for these films! 🤣) Riff Machine, J4MES OX4D and IRaMPaGe 3 Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/9542-netflixs-resident-evil/#findComment-146389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
