    Movie: Resident Evil Degeneration

    A new CG movie based on Resident Evil is in collaborative production between Capcom and Sony.



    RE: Degeneration takes 7 years after the Raccon City incident. Terrorists have thrown the T-Virus inside an Airport, thus Leon S. Kennedy has been assigned to take the case. Inside he will have a fateful encounter, as he finds Claire Redfield, and both team up to resolve the case.

    Cam trailer from the Comic-Con:
    http://www.gametrailers.com/player/37597.html

    Japanese Website:

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    Finally a decent Resident Evil Movie. And unlike SquareEnix, Capcom's first movie will be entirely loyal to the universe of RE. Even Zombies come back, in this adventure which takes place 1 year later after Resident Evil 4 canonically speaking.

    It is scheduled for an October 18 release in japan, with no confirmed date for USA, but since this is RE... english voice acting will definitely be there from the very beginning, just like all RE games, as seen on the trailer. A must see... must download... and must buy as soon as it gets here.

    Wow, good news for Resident Evil fans. For a moment there I thought we were going to see another Hollywood sequel to the trilogy. So, this movie is confirmed for theaters? Some movies in Japan go straight to DVD, and is usually part of a special promotion for a game or event.

    I don't have the data. Actually I was assuming (and hoping) a direct release on DVD so I can download it while it gets released on this side of the pond.

    I thought the same thing... But wow! This is what RE fans really need.

    Hope it's also suspenseful and scary.

    A new trailer doesn't mean it's just been announced, it has almost been a year ago that i first heard about it and saw the first footage.

    Looks good. I've only seen the first of the trilogy myself, but that's all the backstory you'll need for some zombie hacking.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Watching the clips made me wish that this was a game. I so wanted to be able to control Claire at the scene where she witnessed the plane crash and the zombies falling out. But well, RE 5's almost here.

    Video: 720×400 (1.800:1) | 889kbit/s | 23.976 fps

    I thought the plot was broken, with too many things not being explained or put there for the sake of convenience...... The best part to me is still the airport scene.

    My blu-ray just came in today. $19.99 free shipping from amazon, can't beat that.

    Anyways, I really enjoyed this movie. I think everything was well done. Sure, the CGs and lipsyncs weren't the best, or on FFAC's level, but it was still pretty good to me. I'm not a hardcore fan of RE so I don't know everything about the plot, though I still love these games.

    Definitely better than the hollywood films that's for sure.

    I just found time to watch this. I'm.....a bit disappointed. I can't quite tell what I'm not happy with though. Visuals were pretty impressive, voice acting was also quite good (though I don't like Leon, he's too....cool), and they did put enough effort in to make the plot "full".

    But still, the whole thing felt kind of flat and unengaging. I think the thing that killed it was that besides getting a girlfriend, our main hero got zero character development, powering through 1.5 hrs of footage effortlessly. With no real backstory, he's just an agent. Pit him against a few zombies, he pulls headshots. Pit him against a lobby full of zombies, he pulls headshots. Introduce a G-virus mutated boss who survives infernoes, marines and falling debris.....

    ....(wait for it)......he pulls headshots.

    Throw in a conspiracy plot twist at the end, and you have Resident Evil: Degeneration.


    That's my take on it anyway. It wasn't bad. It just wasn't good.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
