Everything Wrong With CinemaSins: Resident Evil in 14 Minutes or Less

[@Th3Birdman]

Spooky month continues with Resident Evil, the beginning of some of the worst video game adaptations of all time. Incidentally, this one isn't all that bad, although the second is my guilty pleasure favorite of the series. What's your fave?

I didn’t like the resident evil films, but I love your content, so I decided to watch this anyway. I’m not disappointed. Question: How long does it take to make videos like this, ending cards and all? I’m curious because I’m thinking about trying my hand at this concept, and I’d like to know how much time I’ll be dedicating to it.

I personally like the movies just due to them having a basic understanding of the source material and trying to make their own story. I don’t like every plot element or twist, but they are fun to watch nonetheless. I think 2 is the best personally

to be fair, the first three parts gave a crap about the continuity and shit. but if we take part 6, we suddenly hear that the founder's daughter was the reason why the T-virus existed even though RE 2's explanation to the T-virus was explained by Dr. Ashford trying to create a medicine for his daughter, with Cain later taking the T-Virus research away from him

[@Werewolf.with.Internet.Access]

I like to close my eyes and pretend Jeremy and Birdman are in the same room reacting to the movie in real time. I like to imagine Jeremy getting a smug look on his face as he says a “sin” only for that smug smile to slowly fade to an embarrassed wince as Birdman lays into him

Fun fact in case you didn't know. The reason for the blood types is because of a Japanese belief that your blood type determines your personality (similar to the Four Humors) so any time you see a game where it lists blood type it's basically telling you if the person is intellectual, aggressive, silly, or serious.

[@NineWhile9]

Think of it like this I I usually use this example in that is the Kingdom Hearts series you have plenty of negative reviews and criticisms of the series phrase writing and story which is actually some of the best video games have to offer and yeah I know that's really not a high bar when games like the last of us 2 exist many critics for example the absolute garbage pile that is the Cosmonaut variety hour seriously don't ever take anything that guy says seriously he never knows what he's talking about we'll make up and do what Jeremy does to bring across a narrative that is ultimately pointless especially for people who actually played the games and decided to pay attention to them many people just do not want to pay attention because look at the Disney in the Final Fantasy stuff and instead want to then just send everything else leaves CinemaSins the example but when people point out the flaws in their criticisms were their arguments on why it's bad people instantly jump in who usually have not played the actual game or seen the films rather they like them or not to try and make their point look like it doesn't matter overall it's how CinemaSins fans tend to react when they see someone point out the fly in Jeremy's argument usually those people have not seen the movies CinemaSins well sins and when people point out the problems with the criticism they have or the flaws they want to defend Jeremy because they don't have any other opinion to piggyback and they don't have a unique one and they also just want to s*** on something you'll also see this with channels like Nostalgia Critic who I do somewhat enjoy and what they do is they pull that s*** when someone points out the flaws with a criticism I've seen people do what the Birdman here does with other KZbinrs who do criticisms from the Revenge of the prequels guy doing cosmonauts stuff and Studio children covering some of the flaws with old bennettthesage videos and plenty of people with anything called redlettermedia

As weird as the RE movie were with regards to the source material, I actually always greatly enjoyed it as this weird sci-fi-horror-action flick that at best paid lip service to the source material. That laser hallway scene is also amazing from a cinematic perspective, even if it makes little sense logically. On one hand, I'm kinda' glad that the RE movies ended up as this weird side thing we can laugh and talk about instead of being doomed to be a series of generic, forgettable video game movies, but on the other hand, there's a wonderful series of dark adventure movies waiting to be made. I could easily see a Resident Evil trilogy that stays true to the spirit and plot of the video games, while also being engrossing movies movies in their own right regardless of being based on video games. Maybe in another timeline!

[@Crawlingdreams418]

they are making a new RE movie, but they racebent Leon Kennedy. Hannah as Jill could've worked, but she looks more Jessica Rabbit than Jill Valentine. netflix racebent albert wesker and made it pseudofeminist. in other words, japanese twitter will roast woke hollywood into oblivion

[@shaelynmartin1996]

I recently binged this movie series with my aunt. She's a super RE nerd, loves the games and knows the plot like the back of her hand. I'm more of a casual RE fan with the movies being my first introduction to the series, then going back to the games because the movies piqued my interest. And we both agree that the first two movies do a pretty decent job of sticking to the source material while making their own movies. The third (desert) was kinda eh. The fourth (prison) was interesting(?). The fifth (new hive) was pure fan service. And the sixth (Raccoon City 2.0) (DID YOU KNOW THERE'S A SIXTH?!) the sixth is the worst kind of trash. If we say the movie [redacted] we immediately know what we're talking about because that's how much we hated it. The 2nd is our personal favorite, the 1st is second place, the fourth comes third because of the set-up, the fifth is our guilty pleasure, the third we pout because Carlos deserved better, and there's nothing else........

“This laser is racist.” Is he implying that because the grid made it impossible to dodge the laser for the one black guy, the laser is racist? Death is death. Doesn’t matter how. If anything, he died much quicker than the other guys, so he got off easy.

It was a joke... I think. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@TheBlackAntagonist]

@@raestlin86 To play dumbass's advocate, I think what Jeremy was trying to say was that because the laser got harder for the black guy AFTER the other guy, its racist, however what he doesn't understand is that it would have been racist either way because if it did it the opposite way it would be pandering which insinuates that black people are stupid (Being black myself I can verify this is 90%...correct, but moving on...). In short, Jeremy, shut the fuck up XD

its not just me that wants some one to say "RESIDEN EVIL" at the beginning of every RE game or movie right?

[@Someguyhere111]

12:01 - I think the correct phrase is 'a thriller of zombies'. Anyway, I actually think the first 2 movies are pretty good. Adapting a video game story into a movie is pretty difficult, since video games generally last a lot longer than 1-2 hours, and especially with Resident Evil where, at the time, the horror came from one character slowly moving through areas filled with one or a few zombies/monsters at a time with tank controls. A 1:1 adaptation was never gonna work, better to make an original story that still stays faithful to the source material, and they did just that.

Great video as usual, this and the second are the only good ones tbh I think the biggest issue with these movies is how it feels like it's called Resident Evil for money since it feels so detached from the games.

Eventually, because linguistic drift, quintessential came to mean something critically important, where as essential just means important.
