Worse, we get a lot of pre-made scripts that Hollywood uses for adaptations and re-skins them. Elvis mentioned "random" stuff not in RE in RE and the weird, choppy issues with the plot. Probably not the case with this, but some movies are made using a completely separate script that ends up being recycled for the ip. Diehard is a famous example, Joker is another. (Though those movies were much better than this mess).

The reason that most zombie related media calls them anything but a zombie is because a while ago like on the 80s-90s marvel had copywrited the word “zombie” so other companies had use find other ways to use the creatures without using the word “zombie” but they lost the right after it became a widely used word, but now a days it’s just kind of a trend to not call them zombies They lost the right in 1996, but it is somewhat of a trend. As a world that take place in a zombie apocalypse doesn’t have any fiction revolving zombies so they have to be more creative that using “zombie”. It also helps marketing bc if they get popular enough more people will know the show by the nickname they gave zombies. Like the walking dead’s “walkers”

[@elliezzz7812]

When you think about it it sorta makes sense, like irl if it happened we probably wouldn’t call them zombies it’d be more like COVID where we’d call them what there infected with , just a funny thought tho that I’ve overthought

[@justaguyonyoutube4592]

The walking deads walkers were the worst analogy because that is the case for the show the comics which was the source material for the olshow originally called them zombies also the comics are way better than the show so you should read them (the show was awesome in the earlier seasons though)

[@maxbracegirdle9990]

@@elliezzz7812 I think we would come up with a name for them and not just call them "infected with *disease*" or "*disease* sufferers." If they were out and about and you could easily tell them apart from people without it, we would come up with a nickname for them. They would be different in each country/region too depending on what caught on and what they do. Like, they're called walkers in TWD because that's what they do, they get up and walk. Depending on what they did here, and previous media influences that they didnt have in TWD, we would come up with some easy to use slang name to give them.

The thing about this show is, nothing Jade does in the past has any stakes because we see her as an adult so we know she lives. And the subtitles say "younger billie" so we also know that she's going to live...

The writers most likely didn't know how to hide those kinds of details from the viewer. At least with the horror movie The Thing, the intro wasn't in subtitle so you couldn't understand the helicopter pilot spoiling the whole movie. Unless you understand their language. Here, they said screw it just add everything in and hope it all works.

[@JustinBobby-di9zt]

Overall I like the idea of it being inserted into the "real world" because on its face the premise is more realistic as well as say multiple parallel timelines where things are different because here we see a completely different version of Wesker taking care of these clearly adopted or otherwise artificially created girls through sperm/egg donation and surrogate mothers which is also an opportunity to present a much more realistic take on the "wesker children" program instead of Umbrella spending all of these resources watching and tracking these children they could just a) engineer them in a lab and b) finance the orphanages and just have Umbrella employees adopt and raise the select children themselves, with the genes they want or who display traits associated with them like high intelligence, faster than normal reflexes,muscle fiber composition, bone density, and better memory which tend to go hand in hand with higher IQ as a general factor they're measuring the speed your brain processes sensory input. They could just have done it that way and raised them themselves and gathered DNA samples from them to splice into the next generation of children born through invitro feetilization with egg donors and surrogates enhancing them in utero with gene splicing and additional gene therapy. The problem is that an Umbrella employee wouldn't be able to threaten a social media company or PornHub employee's job these are the richest entities in the world through exposure and add revenue alone other than Amazon and their IT infrastructure is what makes what Umbrella and other pharma companies do possible especially biotechnology you need that whole technology part and they'd be way more politically and socially influential and powerful than an Umbrella executive and they'd all know about one another's backroom deals and DARPA contracts with the Pentagon/Military. That's the only unrealistic thing I saw flat out here. He'd call PH to whine and get this guy fired they'd just turn into a Tyler the Creator meme be like "Okay?!?" Your daughter got hoed at school and what? then hang up on him and do NOTHING to reprimand the other guy. It's like the creators forgot Umbrella wasn't all powerful did things in secret wasn't in competition with IT companies their Racoon City labs were because they owned that city from the start financed everything and had the Mayor in their pocket from the start and the Spencer mansions lab etc. Was built way before all that and was only connected to the Hive later that was all illegal underground black market deals they made during the construction of Raccoon city that they Umbrella financed. In this show, New Raccoon city implies the events of Re:1-3 have already happened in this timeline or whatever so its like people would have known about BOWS and that Umbrella was no good , likely would have already gone under and Umbrella had equally powerful competition in their own field like TriCell who immediately took over in umbrellas wake along with Wesker's smaller more hidden faction of Umbrellas remnants employing double agents like Ada Wong. That's what happens TriCell and an arms dealer emerge. Supreme with Umbrellas and Osmund Saddlers biotech selling it on the black market to the Highest bidder TriCell, who weaponizes the Ouroboros virus. With the remaining STARS team members and UBCS mercenaries becoming the BSAA running around the world like a BOW related elite black ops commando squad for interpol and the UN clearly funded by the US government and probably China and Russia as well they're probably like "yes please prevent zombie apocalypse in our cities take some weapons and money please as much as you think you'll need" lol. Umbrella collapses and fractionates early on Umbrella collapses into multiple warring underground factions before the rest of this stuff even happens with only their other shady backroom deal created hidden labs remaining and they're constantly being raided and having their pockets run by the BSAA, TriCell mercs, Wesker's faction and probably our spin-kicking, deadshot, quick-time counter attack master , longhaired pretty boy hero Leon and even Ada Wong herself the queen of double crossing and even back stabbing the back stabber.

But, here is what I don't get: Why Wesker? The overworked father roll would have been so much more fitting for Birkin. Birkin already has a daughter, so no one would be offended by Sherry having a sister. It was already established in the game, that both William and Annette were neglecting their daughter due to William working on the G-Virus. Birkin had a similar roll to Wesker within Umbrella, so everything they did to Wesker in this dumbster fire of a show, they could have done to Birkin and it would have been so much less... stupid. Heck, I don't even think that people would care all that much about race-swapping Birkin, because, again, the roll would be so much more fitting for him. Yeah, Birkin is not a single dad, but, going with the whole clone nonsense, the Birkin here could have just been a clone of og Birkin (with an accidental dose of cherry cola) and no one would care.
