Resident Evil Degeneration

Let me preface this by saying I'm mostly doing this because I can't believe how long my latest Uwe Boll rant has stayed up. I've steered clear of his movies, trust me. It will still be a while. I still haven't gotten over "SEED."

Ok, flash back to when I first heard about them making a Resident Evil movie. I thought that would be pretty cool. I've loved Resident Evil from the first time I played Resident Evil 2. Have spent many hours playing or watching people play these games. So "Resident Evil" came out. Not really what I was hoping for in a movie. This first movie seemed to strip Resident Evil down to nothing more than another Zombie story. "Apocalypse" used a little more from the game but still not what a fan would want. (By fan I mean me, and everyone I've talked to about this.) "Extinction" was just plain ouch. I feel like this franchise was handed a product and they changed it to their liking with no regard to the masses of fans out there. Sure you have to change a few things but these changed too much, and didn't use enough. Resident Evil isn't just Zombies.

"Resident Evil Degeneration" brought me what I wanted, Claire and Leon back together. The CG is awesome. It is action packed and just what I wanted.

I don't really know what else to say. I can go on and on about movies I hate but this one I didn't. All I can think to say it was totally awesome. Oh, and Leon doesn't love Claire, He loves Ada!
