With the relatively small amount of umbrella people in cryosleep I highly doubt they'd be able to do much to get those production centers working for thousands of years. Why not, instead of bitching about climate change and how the world is ending, Umbrella just uses their vast resources to do something good for once? Lobby in Senate for green alternatives, undercut rivals and go on a massive advertisement campaign touting the goods of green energy, fund scientific research towards helping the planet. Basically, do all the shady corporate shit you've been doing for years, but this time for good. Then you'll cement yourself as the saviours of the world and everyone will want to buy from you.

A lot of this could have made a fair amount of sense if the writers had just given it a little more thought. Instead of just making the umbrella board a bunch of religious doomsday fanatics, it could have been framed as a preemptive continuity measure. They realized the game was up after Raccoon City and knew there was no way to stop it so they buried themselves to wait it out and re-emerge as a highly organized and well equipped apocalyptic superpower that they controlled. In the mean time, the clones were to create an army that was perfectly suited for a post social world filled with zombies and mutants (the plaga tests) and control the policial structure of the societies that sprang up so make them allies or easy to take care of. All of the tests, clones, adventures, etc in the movies after apocalypse could have been better framed as events in an overarching war between the survivors/umbrella deserters and umbrella itself as it attempted to ready the world for the return of the board. That would have been a pretty interesting story and pulled all of the movies together about as well as they could have given the erratic nature of the writing. Ideally of course, they would have had all that mapped out from the beginning but that is another story.

While you have a point, that is often related to high turnover of key staff or entire staff except maybe lead/popular cast members, often made worse by long periods between each installment of the series being made (so audience age drastically changes and even cultural norms as well). These all had the same writer and most of the lead producers consistently worked on the majority of the films, plus within a year of releasing one were in pre-production for the next.

Siena Guillory wasn't in Extinction cause of commitments to what was supposed to be an Eragon franchise, but it made no sense why she wasn't right back not at the end but at the beginning of Afterlife. And lastly the only ones with a real time period was retribution and final chapter, and I haven't seen anyone do a movie besides the actress who played Ada, so something tells me they were available (she was also signed on so for whatever reason she either dropped or they dropped her in favor of the dumb washington murder plot)@@SnowmanTF2

@@DoomWar1 True to the games in the sense of how shitty their plot got. Take the first three games and it's alright. Resident Evil 4 still had a decent self-contained story, but was starting to make less sense. Resident Evil 5 was a mess with 6 shitting all over the franchise to the degree that it needed a hard reboot, which it got with Resident Evil 7. There were countless of spin-offs between the main line games and their stories got worse each time, too. The plot became ever more obviously a string of events chained together to make action happen. And while that is generally the purpose of a story in media, a good plot has something to say and keeps up the facade of good writing. Bad plot is obvious in it's intention and breaks immersion.
