resident evil remake

[arayner]

some were never happy with the way paul anderson did re, i for one enjoyed it although i wasnt blown away by the 2nd but would consider my self a resi fan ,and have followed the series of games since it all began..so i put this question to you, who do you think should have wrote and directed it ..I would have had george romero write it and rob rodriguez direct it ??? have a think

[Zombie Survivor]

The writers of the games! :drinking:

[arayner]

good point, its a wonder why it doesnt work that way , suppose its all about money and not the people who love and play the games, i thought the first was a good mix for both old and new veiwers...but thats just me

[lavel]

Oh well, that's how the chips fall.:roll:

[The Doctor]

I dont think they should have made it at all.

The way it was done, it was just whoring out the RE name. There was no link to the RE games at all other than that they had zombies and one of them had a character called Jill. The odd "easter eggs" that made you think of RE were completely un-necessary and added absolutely nothing to the film.

Dont get me wrong, the films were okay, but they were nothing to do with RE other than whoring out the trademark to save a few bucks on advertising.

i know what your saying, but again its the p***s up top who comission the scripts and have probably never played the game , i got to read some of george r screenplay and part i looked at sounded pretty true to the game...IF ONLY

But even then, if you've played the game, you know whats going to happen. I think films of games are a bad idea whatever way you look at it.

Goerge Romero did write a script, It's online. And is far superior to Paul Anderson's hunk of Sh*t.

Funny thing is the producers didn't like his script because he changed the characters too much?

Oh Chris wasn't a member of S.T.A.R.S and Barry was black.

Can really see how Anderson got much closer to the game plot:roll:

So what about books? Should they change them just incase someone that read the book knows what's coming...............No.

The reason no Game turned movie has worked is no one has yet to actually base the movie on the plot.

Games like Resident Evil and Metal Gear have very good, filmable plots.

Doom had a pretty simple yet effective plot (But the movie egnored it)

Toom Raider is a film all about the character like James Bond or Indiana Jones. Still wasn't that good a film.

Name one film that was better than the book. They shouldnt do them either.

John Carpenter's They Live, John Carpenter's The Thing, Blade (I'm counting comics).

Better than
John Carpenter's They Live, John Carpenter's The Thing, Hellraiser, Blade (I'm counting comics). Jurassic Park (Book has too much Sci-Fi).

Good as if not slightly simplyfied
Spider-Man, The Punisher, Total Recall, Conan, Frankenstein, Die Hard, The Running Man, The Shining, Blade Runner. James Bond. Get Carter, Point Blank, The day of the Jackal, First Blood.
