Things happen so quickly around here! You post a story about a woman needing a Wii and everyone jumps to help. Put up some images from the upcoming Resident Evil CGI movie and a couple hours later, you have a clip in your mailbox.
Kotakuite cody412 sends in a link to the above trailer that the photos from the last article were taken. Watch in horror as Resident Evil's ubiquitous zombies make their way to a DVD player near you.

Looks good. Lets hope Capcom doesn't forget who's bankrolling this film.
MUST WATCH MOOOOOOOOOORRRRRE!!!
Zombies in an Airport, those tricky bastards!
Oh for...
I thought we'd moved on from zombies and went to the crazed villagers.
And you'd think 7 years from Raccoon incident, you'd think the silly government agents would have had some sort of protocol against the undead, by training the local law enforcement to AIM FOR THE BLOODY HEADS BEFORE GETTING CHONPED ON!
Sorry been reading World War Z again.
Also when's this out?
My god I can't wait to see this.
Looks like a more suiting direction than the live-action stuff we've had to deal with...
@Flakor:
Zombies on a Plane?
I officially can not wait till this comes out, this better make up for all the movies
ooo pretty, why did that cop have an uzi?
Also this is more of a teaser than a trailer
Finally a RE movie that looks like it could be good. How can they go wrong when they include Leon AND Claire?
It looks a lot more promising than the live-action RE movies, but does it look good? I can't really say.
hotness.
Leon..?
Needs moar Jill and Ada...but yar, looks amazing.
"Ashley : LEEEEEOOOOOOOON!!!!
Leon : ASHley!"
Anyway, I'd LOVE to watch this.
Even buy it on Blu-Ray
I don't think Capcom would enter an agreement making this Blu-Ray only unless Sony was handing them a load of funding to get this done
I hope it doesn't end up being a mediocre compiling of fan service with no actual plot.
Advent Children was just so crappy that I'm scared of video game movies now.
At least other crappy movies had plots.
But anyways: LEON! I thought it was Chris and Claire when I first read the article. Now I find out it's Leon! I'm so happy. He's cool. Chris is not.
@jisf0rjosh:
If it's Blue Ray only it'll be a BITCH to download it :P
@jisf0rjosh: It's being produced by SONY Films.
See how much choice they have in the matter.
Wtf, mate.
How has this slipped under my radar?
Is it wrong that I am sporting undead wood for this?
@NunChuckJimi: I think he was SWAT and i'm pretty sure it was an MP7.
The only thing that could have made that trailer better is if Leon put parking cones on their heads before hacking them to pieces with a katana, while congratulating himself on his flawless kills.
Nice!
Yeah...
Faaaaantastic!
Good!
After that sad excuse of a movie "Resident Evil 3", this is surely the best way to go. The game characters that we like and remember instead of real life imitations.
Ironic, is it not? I prefer the "fake" people to the real ones in this particular case. More videogame to movies conversions should go for this.
Uwe, you listening?
@jisf0rjosh: I saw a movie at Blockbuster once called Flight of the Living Dead. Some B-grade knock off I almost rented to see how awful it is.
This looks awesome though.
@BTFzor_Freestyle: It will be on regular dvd of course. It will simply be exlusive to blu ray for high def. Unless they really got some crazy agreement to make it blu ray exclusive, which is highly doubtful
This is what the RE movies should have been in the first place. Although I guess I'm not picking this one up on HD DVD.
@Heliophage: They soooo need to make a CG zombie comedy out of Dead Rising.
wha
@crecente: Crecente is Drunk Texting again!
@jisf0rjosh: Its produced by Sony, which means that although Capcom owns the rights to RE the games, Sony owns the rights to RE the movies. Anything having to do with the movies is handled by Sony and not Capcom (though Capcom still gets paid for their licensing).
Hot damn this is going to be awesome!
@crecente: Tequila Bomb?
wait, when was RE4 placed again? 6 years after RC? the canon is taking massive damage!
@Kirbytheslayer: Is just getting desperate:
Didn't see that, well as long as I can get it on DVD or "find" it somewhere online in HD, I'll be happy
@edb87:
Being a B-rate movie aficionado I will have to view this, thanks for the info
I don't see why this is CGI.
@thejakeman: 6 years after Resident Evil 2. So this is like 13 years after RE2.
@Green-clad gamer dude: RE2 didn't take play 7 years after RE1.....
ME NOW!
@Green-clad gamer dude: It says 7 years FROM Raccoon City. That means you have to walk for seven years in any direction, starting in Raccoon City, and when you get there, that's where this movie takes place.
Leon Kennedy in an airport with Zombies?
No, that's not right. That would mean this is before Resident Evil 4. He would have mentioned in that game that he had an incident after Raccoon City, but only mentioned the Raccoon city outbreak. They should either not make this, or not use Leon. Unless this takes place AFTER Resident Evil 4, but that doesn't make sense either...
@Kyle81: What?
@Kirbytheslayer: Is just getting desperate: Yeah, for some reason I was thinking it was 7 years after RE2 even though I read that.
@Kirbytheslayer: Is just getting desperate: or the flight time of a swallow?
Awesome! I didn't even know they were making this! Can't wait!
The best part of this movie is no Paul Anderson. yay!
Mmm.. CG zombie goodness. This should be fun.
Leon is wicked :D
@jisf0rjosh: Zombies on a plane? Try Plane Dead.
@Green-clad gamer dude: It is 7 years after RE2. The nuking of RC shown in the trailer was the end of RE2.... so yea... 7 years after RE2.
@cmoody17: You do realize this movie likely has no actual bearing to the game continuity?
Sweet, hopefully it won't suck like the Mila Jovovich films.
RE4 took place six years after RE2. So this movie takes place one year after RE4. The zombies make a comeback, yay!
I'm hoping that this will segue into RE5 and fill in the gaps of what's been going on.
I LOVE YOU LEON!!! D;
Seems like I'm watching the cutscenes from a new RE game, except I'm not allowed to play at all.
The last scene with the airport just gave it major bonus points. It needs less Advent Emo Children and more "There's some motherf**ckin' zombies in a motherf**ckin' airport. Blast them!"
This looks good. Really good.
loen & Claire Redfield. please make more resident evil stories or compelete remakes.
I'm gonna have to ask it- was the FFVII movie really that bad? As compared to, say, the Super Mario Brothers movie, the second Mortal Kombat movie, or anything remotely involving the name 'Uwe Boll'.
That said, I have hopes for this movie. If the game companies themselves make movies based on their own games, then there's less likely a chance of a fuckup the size of Crecente's latest drunk post.
@Kirbytheslayer: Is just getting desperate:
Coincidentally walking in a straight line for 7 years, one will end up in Raccoon city
