Post by: vyper on July 27, 2002, 07:13:15 am

Tiara, I don't suppose you'd consider shrinking your sig a bit? I mean yes you're a girl - no need to take up so much space advertising it :o

As for the movie, very good. Although I expected more from the final evil thing... it seemed a little pathetic. The zombies were funny though, and it was predicatble in a funny way. It did kinda toss you in the deep end at the beginning - but it did explain itself later on...

Also Marilyn Manson, and a few others I can't remember.

Very heavy stuff but good for some reason!

RE is good, its better than Super Mario or whatever. FF:TSW and RE were excellent.  dont know why anyone would not like the RE movie.  Go Nemesis! but I think he was scratched in the wrong arm though, lol.

Um, zombies perhaps? I know it's kinda obvious to us, watching it and all. But come on, haven't these people ever watched zombie movies?

The whole ending sequence was stupid and the "little girl" got really annoying.

The games rock.  Hard.  But everytime Hollywood tries to convert something, they almost inevitably screw it up.  I haven't seen RE yet, so I can't pass an opinion on it.  Waiting for the DVD.  I almost never go see movies in the theater anymore, ;)

...And Final Fantasy the movie had nothing to do with Final Fantasy the game. There wasn't a single Potion of Increased Phlegm Output +3 in the entire movie.

Mario Bros. the movie was one of those movies that sucks so much that it TRANSCENDS sucking, and becomes quite good in an odd way. Sorta like the Evil Dead series.

Don't diss the Evil Dead series, it's great fun watching it with friends :D ( look at the face of your g/friend when that chick is raped by a tree ;7 )
FF:TSW is great.

RE was a good movie IMO (as was FF:TSW) :)
Allthough plot may not have been perfect (it was good enough), action was still good looking :D

Your taste in movies (with the exception of the Mario film, that did suck), sucks. No offence or anything but the FF movie rocked on so many levels including visuals, a subtle message and plot line. As for the Evil Dead series... I won't even get started on them. They kick ass.

I still have to see the RE movie.  And personally, I figured the FF movie was nice eyecandy but otherwise unspectacular.
Title: OT - Resident Evil
Post by: Fineus on July 30, 2002, 04:28:29 am
Personally I found FF:TSW much better than RE, perhaps mostly because of the ground it broke with visuals, which it did on a scale not seen in any other movie. The plot was at least different. It turned out the aliens weren't just aliens - which made a pleasent change. Although a lot of it was kinda "haven't we seen this before", in particular the evil general wanting to use military might on the thing that they didn't understand, which I've seen so many times before.

But similarly RE just seemed to be a rehash standard action movie. Nice zombies yes - but surely we've seen dozens of weird science labs over-run by some weird evil that a small group of people including at least one civilian or something have to destroy/escape from. It was like a combination of Cube, Event Horizon and any number of research labs gone bad. It did add zombies to the mix though, but it was nothing special.

I know this kinda goes back on what I said earlier - but I think it depends what you want out a movie. As an action it's great, as anything new or interesting it's poor.

As I said, I dunno ( btw, I know she was in the fifth element, don't forget it was made by a french :p ). There's something about her I don't like, but I couldn't say what.
