i have no idea who this Elvis the Alien person is and they use a ton of memes, but they did a retrospective on one of my favourite dumbest films of all time, the Resident Evil Alice series and they aren't one of those "but these films do not uphold the sanctity of the original game plot!!!" type of videos. guy loves them as I do and that's sufficient:

I've only seen a few of his videos, but he does do some good stuff on terrible horror movies from what I have seen. Resident Evil series fits, because yeah they're like... bad? But also they kinda rule in spite, and also because, of it.

Interesting. Now, do we have to be concerned that Vtubers are a tenuous existence as the entire concept could be toppled if they were sued by any former rantsona youtubers?

Oh no, how bad exactly? Do they lose rights to their organs if they decide to quit in the contracts or is it like the 'you pay us 40% of your salary to quit' situation from Sinclair Broadcast Group a few years ago?

What I appreciate most about Sinclair is penalizing stations for failing to run political segments by their insane management, but also giving the most dogshit equipment possible to receive those must runs. So due to contractual obligation they will knowingly cut to an audioless black screen.

I really wanted to hope the live-action Cowboy Bebop could turn out good, it looked like it could at one time, but christ alive.

Also the RE movies more suck because they're bad in the first place, but then tread on a fun series and just sort of hijack characters to be bit parts next to boring rear end Alice and don't use much of the fun stuff from the series either.

Yeah, like, it's cool that Paul WS Anderson loves his wife and gets to put her in movies but it kind of sucks that every other character has to be in awe of how awesome Alice is. I think it's the second movie where Jill almost gets allowed to do something cool twice but has it cut off at the knees so Alice can come in and show everyone that she is in fact the best (original character do not steal).

Also in an incredibly camp, over the top film series they manage somehow to make Wesker boring.

I think it's the second one and yeah, that scene in particular I know pissed a bunch of fans off because like, it's Resident Evil, Jill is around and you want to see her do cool stuff, not get her moment sniped by superwife.

Then they do the same to Claire and Chris later in the actual Wesker fight, they start it off mostly, then get shoved into some dumb tubes and Alice jacks the fight again.

Like why even bother bringing the cool series characters in if you're gonna do lame bullshit like that every time.

And then they kill off ALL the game characters off screen in between movie 5 and 6 so Alice can save the world by herself.
(Yes I know Wesker is still alive, but he gets basically replaced by a movie-only villain who was supposed to have been dead already)

All I remember from Final Chapter is that Wesker had a door drop on his foot and he's suddenly out of the movie entirely

The RE movie series was more of an exhausting experience and looking back at it, I really should have just stopped at 3

I stopped at 2 when they made Jill sort of job to show how cool Alice is. "Jill tosses a match behind her to make something explode... but it goes out. Alice throws a WHOLE MATCHBOOK and it explodes!" I've seen bits and pieces but it's not really Resident Evil and Resident Evil is mostly 'fights zombies' so it's not that hard to be Resident Evil.

Jokatgulm is tedium.

Jokatgulm is suffering.

There are no good live action video game movies, so I'm always surprised when people get excited for yet another one. They can atbest become decent enough action movies like the RE or Tomb Raider ones but those do so at the cost of throwing away what the games are about.
Video game licences are just a way for the suits(not even the creators) to get more money and I'll never understand why people keep treating it as anything else. Movie tie in games are derided but have an infinitely higher success rate than game tie in movies.

But then again some people got excited for western live action adaptations of anime like Cowboy Beebop which also always suck, so it's probably just nerds having their brains fried in general.

I love this movie.

The fact the games themselves have taken a lot of ideas from said movie is pretty indicative also I think. I don't know any other video games which have taken so many ideas from their film counterparts. Although RE games love to copy Film RE1's laser hallway.

I think the Japanese live action Death Note movies have a better end than the manga/anime. Mostly because it has L defeating Light instead of the deeply unsatisfying Near/Mellow arc.

Near/Mellow are peak conceptually interesting storybeat, but bad execution.

The problem with the Near/Mellow arc is that it replaces a good character that people liked with two new characters who are nowhere near as interesting.
