Finally something NOT MvC-related
From Graham Stark of Escapist News Network:
W.S. Anderson, director of the Resident Evil movies - and the guy that somehow convinced Milla Jovovich to marry him - said 'to make a movie based on a game without having played the game is disrespectful to both the creators and the players.' ..Wait, does this mean he's actually PLAYED Resident Evil? ...I think that makes it even WORSE if possible.
...IIIIIII don't even know what to think of that possibility. :| And then, my sisters after they read it:
Ash: "...You know, if he HAS played any of the games, that just makes it so much worse. Because rather than screwing up the characters because he didn't know them, instead, it's that he DID know them--he just didn't care."
Me: "...Ouch. :\ This is true."
Ash: "He would have KNOWN Jill was strong and independent, but then still made her like that."
Me: .../SKEPTICFAIS
Day: "He's like... a bad fanfiction writer."
Me: "In that he doesn't know what the frik he's doing?"
Day: "No, in that he KNOWS how they should be, but he COMPLETELY THROWS AWAY THEIR PERSONALITIES for his own enjoyment."
Me: "...In order to favor his Mary-Sue!"
Day: "Exactly!"
Ahaha there's no way I'm believing the guy actually played any of the games, but if he has, then congratulations, Anderson, you've lost even more of my nonexistent respect. And I was sure that wasn't possible.
I saw that the Prince of Persia movie was on Netflix and I'm partially tempted to watch it so I can fully tear it apart, too, but... 8\ IDK. As my favorite game series, I'm not sure I wanna have the impression of that crap. Plus, ever since it hit theaters, Mom's made it clear she's convinced that I SEEKRITLY LIKE IT and want to see it, and thought the whole time it was out that I'd give in and go see it. B| Yeaaaaaaaaaaaah. No. But she also thought I SEEKRITLY LIKED AFTERLIFE, which. Please, Mom. Have you not come to know me at all in the last twenty-two years? Wut.
