OMG This is frigging Awesome!!! *end fanboy rant*
Yep, no matter how bad they say it is i'm still definitely going to see it.

Dirame

Wow, a Resident Evil movie that actually has to do with the games. Count me in.

Hyperfludd

The scar Leon got from Krauser in RE4 is gone? Screw that noise.

IndividualAnonymous

ACTION HERO LEON KENNEDY! DUN DUN DA DUN DUUUNNN!!!

Why's he all showy off now? I know Resident Evil 4 propelled his popularity into outer space, but c'mon. And that cheering when he said his name? Dude, how come Claire got no respect? 'Cause the people watching that one played RE4 and that's it...

Kids and their music...

yflow

Screw the CGI quality, it doesn't matter. A truly canon Resident Evil movie to flesh out or tie up the story will be great. Judging from that trailer, the voice acting will be just as cheesy as it should be, so I'm really looking forward to this one!

@phantomlink: @AllOfUsAreLost: @ヨシダさん 25:

that's not Birkin, it's just a G-type monster.

J.A.

@Balmut: RE4 took place around six years after the end of RE2.

summerdrone

Seeing as the Resi series has some of the worst dialogue, voice acting and well... general plot in gaming, the idea of them making a movie is a hilarious prospect. Definitely going to see this.

Golem29

i need this movie so bad

bersnake

I'll just hold my PS controller and pretend I'm playing Resident Evil 1, perhaps I even will play it for real.

What can you say, it's CGI. Just think of the movie as a FMV.

Jaamlid

CG is freaking terrible. The animation in particular looks on par with game FMVs from the 90's.

Also, "I'm Leon S. Kennedy"? Who the hell gives their middle initial when they introduce themselves? Weird.

As you can probably tell, not too excited about this one.

skyoon

Resident Evil 2 was by far my faveourite of all the resident evils.

The many ways to play the game, 1st, 2nd missions.

The enemies! T-90 and my all time resi-fave William birkin!

Anyone else notice that all the music was straight from Resi 2 =] I did...

..I don't care for crappy CGI. I can't wait to see this!

t3hOutlaw

@MKK2004:

Leon won't be guest starring in Wii-Music, so I guess the fangirls aren't so happy after all.

AlbenoEpiX

Sweet, can't wait to see this.

Poison

"who the hell are you?"

"I'm Leon S. Kennedy"

*fangirls goes wild*

MKK2004

....this looks cool and all, but im predicting another Re3/Code veronica inncident....you know Wesker and the nemesis, 2 games out at once.

also, how long was RE4 after the nuke?

Balmut

I hope it'll be better & make more sense than those god-awful movies starring Milla Jo-jo-whats-her-face!

Connobi

Was that running on a PS3? Capcom needs a better cg company.

daschupa

@SolidSnake1118:

They'll probably make a game to thise tune succeeding the release of the movie. It will be interesting to see the film buffs complaining about how the game is not true to the movie, as opposed to us calling bullshit on things like lack of gun-model congruency.

AlbenoEpiX

As much as I really love Resident Evil... I totally forgot about this movie.

KLEPTO671

@kryzhal: Yes, they were.

summerdrone

leon became a free runner?! isnt it amazing what you can do in 7 years!

Nine_breaker

Claire looks almost as beautiful as she did in the Code Veronica game. Almost. They changed her face a little but she's mostly the same I guess. But damn, those Code Veronica FMVs were beautiful...

Al3xand3r

@AllOfUsAreLost: Well i know the reason is because it was originally made with the japanese dialogue in mind,but I still really hate when voices are out of synch to a characters mouth.Only time I can stand it is in really bad kung fu movies,as it adds to the hilarity.

Im just hoping the film comes with the japanese audio track too,im all up for a bit of reading.

Tom Clancy's Samuraidino

they should just make a game out of this.... still itll be better than the actual movies, no?

SolidSnake1118

as bad as the lipsyncing is, weren't all the resident evils voiced in English in Japan, with japanese subtitles?

kryzhal

Whoa a CGI movie? Damn looks great! I think we would have alot better videogame movies if they all were CGI.

ichiban1081

even if they get the worst dubbing in the world it will still be 10000x better then that crap Paul W. S. Anderson pushed out his ass

taftsearlobe33

Fangirls scream at mostly every con.

I'm loving the character lineup for this feature, but the CG leaves a lot to be desired.

Madriker

can't stand english dubbing. i REALLY hope it doesn't do that.
i thought it was the american versions of the games that people gave a shit about anyway (maybe i'm just not in tune with my inner japanese gamer).

advent children is an amazing accomplishment from a purely CGI standpoint. the script was also really well done and faithful to the source material. the *PROBLEM:* english dubbing. it's a huge problem. they completely scrapped doing the lipsyncing 1/3 of the way into it.

do the right thing, capcom.

kevinl

Wow, could be the first decent Resident Evil/Biohazard movie ever made, the RE2 music served the trailer well at any rate.

Why do fangirls *always* scream at Comic-Con panels?

humongous_mouse

William Birkin is back!
I wonder if it was Wesker's or Ada's group that brought him back...as it evidently takes place after RE4...right?

ヨシダさん 25

Is this a straight to DVD and Blu Ray release or will it hit theaters first?

El-Suave

I need some Dead Space Schwags...

BilliousB

You guys know that there is a version of this running around that isn't cammed, right? Why'd you post this one? Though the lower quality does kind of make it look better. Still looks terrible though.

stfufools

I see little hope for this movie. Why do they insist on whoring out their good series of games? Oh, right that whole money aspect.

M-26-7

I'm not sure if I'm watching the same thing as you guys. The quality of the CG looks terrible to me...

henhowc

@Tom Clancy's Samuraidino:
I think the lip-syncing could maybe be down to it being dubbed for English-language viewers.
The movie being released in Oct. in Japan as Biohazard Degeneration and all, could well be the case.

Regardless, i'm all over this one. Moreso if that was Bill Birkin right there.

AllOfUsAreLost

Every time I see this I weep a little knowing it's just a movie and not a game.

someGCguy

Hell yes!!! I can't wait for this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dead_red_eyes

@homernoy: yeah, you'd think if they were planning to sell just the cinematics they'd go for better animations.

ruba-dub-dub

I was wondering when we would see anything about this movie again. I can't wait for it, it is going to be really awesome.

FISSURE

I just wet myself.

ffmusicdj

@phantomlink: thanks, i do hope they dont water down the general violence and horror of the game

bubassi

It looks like a modern video game by the quality of the graphics. The body movements are really looking game like too. Weird.

homernoy

@Murderdolls: Oh yeah....Its great to see Leon back....but if they got Jill in there too? that would be epic.

ApertureScienceIntern

i thought this was a new game for a minute...

dappaute

@bubassi: It's a CGI movie which is supposed to be out later this year

phantomlink

No Jill? I'm letting out the longest sigh in history right now.

I'll still watch it though.

Murderdolls

The lip synching may be dreadfull,and theirs probly going to be zero plot,but by god,I cannot wait to see this film

Tom Clancy's Samuraidino

a new game? or is this the cgi movie they mentioned earlier in the year?

bubassi

Is that a Mr Birkin I see? sweet ( minus it's 7 years after Racoon City :( )

phantomlink

Good to see Leon back in action!
I hope we see some Ada/Claire cat fight.

papero3

@yflow:

Same in Japan, they LOVE the Leon for some reason - when they were killing of Leon in Code Veronica Japanese fans reacted badly, so they took Leon out of the game and replaced him with Steve (urk).

Leon's alright in my book, but I wouldn't say im a huge fan of him, but he seems to be American's wet dream or something.

J.A.

now that looks like a good film, leon was way better than chris

SteveeVader

Raccoon City Incident - 1998
RE4 - 2004
RE: Degeneration - 2005
RE5 - 2008

Movie looks good. I don't like Leon's model. He looks way different compared to his RE4 self, and I became quite accustomed to his appearance in RE4. This Leon looks like an entirely different person. That's what I hate about Capcom and their RE series. They keep changing the characters' looks to the point that they're almost unrecognizable.

Cryterra

@SteveeVader:

You're crazy Chris >>>> that pretty-boy any day.

The Question

Leon S. Kennedy > YOU!

FrankieViturello

Oh man. Epic. I saw the first trailer on JoBlo some time back and was floored - I had no idea they were making this until recently.

This is how they should do video game movies - in CG.

It fixes all sorts of problems with the game to film translation. You don't have to worry if something would become cheesy when not in the game world, don't have to search for actors - and Japanese dialog track on the DVD, anyone?

sir_carrot

@FrankieViturello: LOL

TOCATL

Looks like a lackluster CGI movie with poor production qualities. Not something I'll be getting excited about.

Thorax

Awww I was hoping it was another game :P

Pornosaur

Can't wait! Loved the Leon fangirl squeal in the video. I'm not a huge fan of the character designs, though. I wish they went with the Resident Evil 4/5 designs.

y2kenjination

Please let this turn out to be a game!! We prefer interactive movie!!

Yam

"Who the hell are you?"

"Leon S. Kennedy"

Now who the hell talks like that? Saying their middle initial. I hate cornball cheesy lines.

DigitalHero

@DigitalHero: Some people present themselves that way...

Murderdolls

Wow, a Resident Evil movie actually based on the games it's supposed to be based on? This is how you make a Resident Evil movie, Paul W.S. Anderson.

I'm not saying it will be perfect but anything is better than the shit live action movies.

OMGitsDarkMatter

It will be nice to see a sequel that actually relates to Raccoon City, and the t-virus, but I wish it was a game.

Gouki4u's avatar has a severe case of Jekyll and Hyde

@DigitalHero:

Then what do you want ?

"Who the hell are you?"

"Kennedy.."

"Leon Kennedy".

:D

Btw, is it me or is it just Leon sounded like Keanu Reeves ?

xCruciaLx

@DigitalHero: The obviously cut off part of the line.

The full thing: "Leon S. Kennedy III, esquire. At your service."

erlik

Once it hits on Blu-Ray in Japan, I'm going to really import this movie! I want it for the graphics and oh course its Resident Evil.

mikes_stalker

How far into production is this? I can't believe I've not heard of it sooner

Hopefully it's still early on enough to change a few things...

Nevertheless hooray for an RE film that doesn't have Milla Jovovich in

MikoKeZ

I'm not a fan of Leon's new look, but otherwhise, cool. The voice was kind of weird, too.

Herabec

I cried when I saw this trailer - really can't wait to see the film, bad CGI or whatever, I have a feeling it'll be great.

Shin-Kaiser

Just so you guys know, this is going straight to DVD.

Littlefields

Maybe because they didn't want to make a game. RE5 is just around the corner. RE6 could be Claire and Leon but I doubt it.

Cryterra

This looks highly entertaining. Just a silly zombie movie, but one that does a damn good job of representing the RE universe (probably moreso than the recent games even, let alone the live action movies). Reuniting Leon and Claire is damn cool as well.

My only question: why is this not a game?? If they made a new RE game that featured Leon and Claire as the main characters in a zombie-infested airport, complete with the story A/story B mechanic I loved in RE2 (and silly statue puzzles in the airport!) it would be simply amazing. As it is I'll have to just watch it and long for what could have been :(

MysteryPersonX

@MikoKeZ:

Its coming out in October in Japan. Sometime later in the US.

ananag

@McWhertor: The 30 minute rule pretty much applied to every panel that had the slightest amount of mainstream recognition. That...just...sucked...

boopadoo

@Cryterra:

They could make it into a PSN/XBLA title. That would fucking rule.

SnakesSolids

Yeah, so Capcom decide to give us the one Resident Evil that would've made the majority of people happy, as a film. Bravo, morons.

Yeah, we'll just 'make do' with more of that Las Plagas crap.

Bergerac

Yeah I was at Comic Con and showed up also 30 minutes prior and me and my friend weren't able to get in. It sucked.

MGSchick

ooo this looks good....which system is this for?

islandknight

Wooooooooooooo!!!

PS. Chris pwns Leon anytime, anywhere.

REDFIELD8

crap, i thought this was a new game, i'm so disapointed!

Tracy48

why does he say Leon S kennedy, and not just Leon Kennedy? and whyd everyone yell? Clare isnt slutty enough, but im still excited to see this

KingKevin

I think the S. Kennedy thing is fine, I know a guy who does the same thing he always go by his name including his middle initial.

Also the "Shoot 'em in the head" line was kinda cool.

Looks pretty guuuud.

Junker

Wheres Milla Jovovich?

*dons the Asbestos Armor Of Dooooom (has a +3 against flames)*

WildWon

in japan all the movie theater seats will be equipped with a giant "O" button near the drink holder, so when Leon or Claire have to escape certain situations, all the audience members have to slam the button furiously. they get all the fun...

F22

1. Y'know, I can understand news in the future broadcasting in HD, but didn't the original RE occur in the 90s?

2. According to WP, if Leon S. Kennedy and Co. can't defuse the situation in four hours, the T-Virus gets dispersed to every city in the US. Why not just evacuate the area and MOAB the place? Worked for Cloverfield.

3. "Shoot them in the head." Someone watched the MC Chris video, didn't they?

@kevinl: When the vast majority of your audience pirated the thing about as soon as it came out in Japan, you wouldn't really bother with the English voice acting either.

Jonn

So basically this is like FF:Advent Children, but for Resident Evil? Should be entertaining.

Hiro-of-Shadows

Looks like a fun flick.

IceCold

I'm so gay for Leon.

Weepee
