This whole capcom financed series is pretty cheesy but does have a lot of interesting visuals and memorable scenarios no doubt. I don't think if this had to stand on it's ratings or bo take it would have lasted more than 2 films but it has capcom backing so there you go. It has little to do with the classic games other than some of the installments feature characters of the games here and there as supporting. This is just what they call the RE "universe" stuff like we are getting all over. Star Wars "universe", marvel etc just a big bland mix of the same but reskinned content to sell etc
Of course it features Milo Jonovitch the ScandiManian, T(ranee)virus positive no doubt. How no one has either seen that obviousness or even mentioned it is indicative of how bad the world is today, the real tvirus. Milton looks very gross most of the time but has been feminized enough to fool the unobservant. It's a known irony that the Tvirus good guys fight the Tvirus bad guys and don't think the whole cast here isn't just the same. Smooth "men" etc mask faced weirdos and such all over here. You add makeup tricks, lighting and framing and then you have good deception, you see these types away from all that and no photoshop tricks on the photos you'd see scary looking monsters. Lost battle by now I know but still.
I do like some of the music as it makes sense for this rock opera style of movie we are getting here. The only complaint is the wild volume levels in this series, it will go from dead silent to blasting loud in a second and this happens a ton in this series it's jarring and makes it hard to hear a lot of the dialogue since I turn it down so much as to not get blown out ears or a headache. It's a disjointed viewing experience but the visual splendor makes up for it. Thankfully I never saw these in the theater so have control. This whole series is a good early morning thing to wake up lol.
Some of the sets from the games do come in lightly here and there over this series and the tropes of huge underground bases, clones, artificially bred human-oids, genetics, homicidal AI, etc The last few of them introduce game characters more no doubt and it all goes back to raccoon city, the panda eyes and their real meaning, and that whole thing, oroboros. The umbrella of the hidden hexagrams and checkerboard brickmasons is obvious, just in the symbology used. Baphomets, columbias, kadmons, "gods" on the stage directing etc Manovitch just a monkey to dance really, bred into the cult must have made the right sacrifices as they would say to get so famous etc
In this last one they just come out and say they're going to have a fake Armageddon to then control the outcome as divinely approved, likely have their inverted messiah take public credit for solving the disaster they are planning. All just a stage show which they're so good at since even before TvirusWood started. Pagan greek theater featured role reversed actors as did kabuki and likely whatever took place on stage in ancient egypt, babylon and india likely featured inverts doing fake drama. I think elizabethan theater may have featured that as well, similar to the private productions the bohegrovers do. Crossdragging is just a lite form of all the way.
It's an entertaining series no doubt that is over since they did the unremarkable reboot in 22. Similar to the games but in reverse. The early games were slow horror and puzzles and such but starting with RE5 it was just an action focused game, then came back to the more horror focus for 7 onwards however it's a different horror than the quiet type of the first 2-3 games. This movie series is obviously action movies primarily with a totally made up character of Alice, which could definitely fit in the 5-6 games but the whole scenario of worldwide scope doesn't fit too well in the games.
The early games focus on the local aspects of the initial outbreak and also the elite directed nature of it as per the creepy mansions with underground areas and such. We only get underground dumbs and impressive battlefields in this movie series and combat. The puzzle solving didn't fit in here. I think this is just a promotional thing while the games languished for the most part and were doing the remakes for modern gamers. The game series didn't move forward with new stories until 7 and it's certainly nothing like these movies. Like the movies I don't know where the games are going post 8 now, seems like localized stories of the outbreak and aftermath with no real ending but just when it stops selling and a new product is made that sells better has more shine to it.
