First things first: "Final" Laughing You mean before the reboot Very Happy

And yes, I know the movies are terrible.

Filming will begin next movie in South Africa so I guess the plot or some of the setpieces will be RE5 inspired? Although the fourth movie already adapted scenes and monsters from RE5. It should be RE6's turn really. Then again at some point Anderson was saying the final movie will come full circle and take place in the Hive from RE1. Who knows?

Characters / actors returning or not:

Quote:
Alice (Mila Jovovich) obviously.

Claire Redfield (Ali Larter) confirmed. Off topic: https://instagram.com/p/55_VdOQa7P/

Ada Wong (Li Bingbing) was announced to be in but when the movie was delayed the actress apparently quit. Maybe the role will be recast. The actress couldn't speak English anyway and her voice was dubbed by the RE2/4 games' voice actress.

Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory) actress implied she is in. She is also a fan of the movies.

Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts) actor said, I believe, that he hasn't been called to get back but I'm sure Wesker will be in even if they have to recast.

Chris Redfield (Wentworth Miller) actor is unlikely to return because he will be shooting the Legends of Tomorrow TV series. Since Claire will be in I think it would be better to recast rather than not have him at all.

Becky (Aryana Engineer), that little girl that was playing the role of "Newt" in the last movie? I think the actress said she wasn't asked to return. How does that make any sense since she was a big part of the plot of the previous movie? Well, these are the Resident Evil movies that couldn't care less about continuity for yaaa...

The Leon dude.. whatever.. I don't remember if he did anything worthwhile and I think he looked very wrong? But if Ada is in maybe they will bring him back too. And Barry died I think?

Other characters are either dead or just no important (for me) to mention..


Anderson planned the final movie to be a reunion with several characters dying as it's the series conclusion, but when the movie was delayed last year for Jovovich to give birth, this created trouble with who could return.. And maybe there have been rewrites since then.. So who knows?

Oh yeah and the "plot" is:

Quote:
The story picks up after the events of Resident Evil: Retribution, as the Project Alice is forced to race against time before the villainous Red Queen attempts to destroy the final remnants of humanity.


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

Meh.

First one was alright, second one had Nemesis, so it gets a free pass from me, third was weak, but I liked the setting.

Last two sucked dick, only good thing about Afterlife was A Perfect Circle's The Outsider(Apocalypse Mix).

Milla sucks as an action hero, actual video game characters are treated like shit and get little screen time, and I'm tired of Wire-Fu.

Sienna Guillory is Me Gusta

Oh and if they recast Chris, they better get someone who lifts, I want boulder punching!

Without a doubt.

Which is the reason they have brought it back in the 3rd and 5th and probably why Anderson at least at some point wanted the 6th to take place again in the Hive, so he can reuse it. Laughing Laughing Laughing

Could be a bunch of bollocks but in mid-2015 someone who claimed to have worked on the films wrote angrily about how the production in 2014 was delayed, script was terrible, they had no preparations done and she wasn't called back to work. She gave these details about the script (my summary of her summary):

Official cast and synopsis... and Jill (Guillory) is out.. Sad

http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/09/18/resident-evil-the-final-chapter-begins-production-full-cast-and-plot-synopsis-revealed

Returning:

Alice (Jovovich)
Claire Redfield (Ali Larter, last seen in RE4)
Dr. Alexander Isaacs (Ian Glen, last seen and killed? in RE3)
Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts, last seen in RE5)

New:

Abigail (Ruby Rose)
Doc (Eoin Macken)
Christian (William Levy)
Michael (Fraser James)
Cobalt (Rola)

No Chris, Jill, Ada, Leon, Becky.. Anderson dropped the ball.

And the synopsis:

Quote:
"Picking up immediately after the events in Resident Evil: Retribution, humanity is on its last legs after Alice is betrayed by Wesker in Washington D.C. As the only survivor of what was meant to be humanity’s final stand against the undead hordes, Alice must return to where the nightmare began – Raccoon City, where the Umbrella Corporation is gathering its forces for a final strike against the only remaining survivors of the apocalypse.

In a race against time Alice will join forces with old friends, and an unlikely ally, in an action packed battle with undead hordes and new mutant monsters. Between losing her superhuman abilities and Umbrella’s impending attack, this will be Alice’s most difficult adventure as she fights to save humanity, which is on the brink of oblivion."


Ok..

1) How are you going to pick up immediately after RE5 when the last shot has Jill, Ada and Leon in it and in this movie these characters do not return??? Unless you are going to recast them and you just haven't announced that yet.

2) What do you mean Alice "losing her superhuman abilities"??? They were given back to her 5 minutes before the end of the previous movie! Don't tell me she loses them again at the start of this???!!! Anderson what are you doing????????????????????? Mind Is Full Of Fuck Mind Is Full Of Fuck Mind Is Full Of Fuck Mind Is Full Of Fuck Mind Is Full Of Fuck

Looks like they based it on REvelations 2.

+ Milla! I don't like her character in every movie that followed

Also, I remember some movie before the first RE that did a similar thing to those lasers, Cube or Cubed or something, but it was with razer wire IIRC. Same effect though.


yes that was cube Smile

http://www.kotaku.co.uk/2015/10/09/stuntwoman-nearly-killed-making-new-resident-evil-movie

Quote:
My incredibly talented stunt double, Olivia Jackson, collided with a camera crane while performing a motorcycle stunt and it put her in the hospital with severe, multiple injuries....I wasn’t personally there to witness it, but from the reports I got, it was awful. None of us have experienced anything like this in our careers making action films and hope we never do again, but the production reacted very quickly to ensure she received the best care and also in reaching out to her family and making sure they were informed and looked after during this overwhelmingly difficult time.


Dayum!

Quote:
It doesn’t sound like Jovovich was kidding when she says nobody had seen anything like this; Jackson’s injuries included:

2 weeks in a coma with a bleeding and swollen brain.
Severed main artery in the neck.
Crushed and “degloved” face (google that last term at your own NSFW risk).
Broken ribs.
Shattered Scapula.
Broken Clavicle.
Broken Humerus.
Broken Radius & Ulna.
Amputated thumb.
Torn fingers.
Five nerves torn out from her spinal cord.


May the NFOrce be with you always.

And all that for a Paul W.S. Anderson movie, not even Paul Thomas Anderson.

That's insane, I wish her all the best, and no, I'm not googling "degloved", the word alone is a good enough description.

Ya, this happened very early during filming. As far as I know her husband hasn't sued or anything so it wasn't that someone made the set unsafe etc. It's bad luck. Sad

In other news Wentworth Miller confirmed he will not be in this because he is busy (shooting Legends of Tomorrow).

Wenthworth was.. okay..ish.. I mean almost all sidekicks are given very little to do and are pretty poor.

But they dropped the ball with this movie. It's the finale and most characters won't be returning. I mean most of them have skipped a movie or two but they were making an appearance later.. But for this almost no one is coming back.

Schedule conflicts (Wentworth as Chris).. Bad blood with Sony (Ada, Jill).. or unknown reasons (Kmart, Leon..)..

To add insult to the injury the previous movie did bring back several characters (Rain, One, Carlos..), only to have them do nothing and they were killed them by the end of it. What a waste.

Someone supposedly read the script and people believe he's telling the truth. It ties up several loose ends from the previous movies so I guess in that sense it's not bad.

No kidding. And the article says the stuntwoman who was injured on set a few months ago will have one of her arms amputated. Sad

All this loss for a shitty Paul Weasel Shit Anderson movie starring his hack wife. Ugh.
