Finally something NOT MvC-related

Feb 09, 2011 15:35

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 ( Read more... )

lol what, lol sisters, wtf mom, resident evil(?)

PERSONALLY I didn't actually mind the Prince of Persia film too much. They certainly didn't mangle the characters or anything like the RE films did :T It feels inspired by the games but not like it's picking and choosing what it wants. Idk, I found it okay.

Oh? Good to know. A friend of mine saw it and told me about it, and while I'd gathered that it definitely wasn't the worst thing around, a lot of it still sounded cheesy and meh. /lol SO ANAL

I'm totally just gonna. ....leave this here.

Anderson and Milla both have stated that they've played the Resident Evil games. In fact, he played through RE5 which was his inspiration to come back to the RE movie franchise and direct the fourth movie.

They said this at comic con this last year. :< I was there for it.

Well, it's a good thing I have little faith in humanity to begin with. ...I guess.

I DON'T MEAN TO BREAK YOUR HEART.

Though, Wentworth played the games after he got cast. I gleed.

...I could listen to him talk to me for days. ngl

IT'S OKAY IT HAPPENS EVERY OTHER DAY I THINK.

Ahaha see, I respect him and Guillory for TRYING and actually playing the games, but that still couldn't save their characters when Anderson was behind them going "OKAY YOU IS STUPID AND INCOMPETENT AND YOU IS A CREEPER :DDD" B|

XD Yes, well. He was one guy I didn't mind looking at for the duration of the movie. Just saying.

That man makes me so freaking angry, it isn't even funny. I seriously doubt he's ever even touched a RE game. If he did, you'd think he would have made the characters in the movies a little more true to the personalities that we actually know they have. Ugh. It frustrates me to even think about that man and what he did to my favourite franchise. Le sigh.
