yeah! that was awsome! i loved using the rapid fire cheat with the gameshark. it was hilarious. everything was like a machine gun....even the machine gun fired faster! i tried killing the croc boss with the custom shotgun on rapid fire mode to see if it would die without the gas canister but it killed me anyways.

Seriously?
I've never tried to kill the croc without using the Canister. I guess it isn't possible eh.

you can kill him without the canister, but usually he reaches you before that can happen, and you can run around the corner, and he just smashes through the wall, and comes back to attack the other person in scenario b

Now the first Resident Evil movie womped serious ammount of rectum. The only cool thing was the 'Lazer Room.' Alice was never a RE character which adds another turd factor to the movie. The adopted the idea, not the game itself. It was a BS attempt of captializing on a GREAT game series. Now I've seen the second one, twice infact. The only reason I went is because Nemesis was in it, and in addition to the 4 clips I viewed of that movie 3 months before it came out it had little to none Nemesis Footage.
Now I was very pleased that they didnt make him out of C.G.I. like they did with those craptacular lickers in the first one. The lickers were improoved in this film. But still totally sucked. They moved SICKLY fast to the point where you could bearly see them. But still they were crap C.G.I. Back to Nemesis. They did him exceptionally well... they forgot some sh**. In the game there was a cool scene where he picks up one of the S.T.A.R.S. members by the head, kinda crushes his skull, and that 'tenticle' in the palm of his hand shoots out and comes out the opposite side of the dudes head. That would have been so rad to see in the movie, but it was not in there.
For the other odd fact, in one of the clips I seen, he was fighting alice. But what was clearly apparent was he was bashing her with that tenticle. This was never in the movie. Another cool thing was they showed how he was equipted with his weapons and nifty suit. He also had this incredible gun that wasnt in the game. They incorporated two nice things from the game, one being you can hear this monster walking from far away, and two, his little "STTTTTTTAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSSSSSS" grunt. But what blew the big one is....NEMESIS GOES GOOD AT THE END. WTF. I mean, come on. And BTW Nemesis was a product & project of Umbrella Europe. This movie horridly screwed some Nemesis shat up.
They did Jill and the other S.T.A.R.S. members rather well. Jill was quite the looker. The movie was nothing but action, which made up for the 96% of dialouge in the movie previous. But the ending...."WORST ENDING EVER" it left room for a 3rd even crappier movie. Which I'll tell you now. (spoiler of sorts) Alice dies, they bring her back to the lab, work on her, and now she has god damn super powers. She makes a guard watching her on camera bleed out of every nook n' cranny. Oh yeah. Jill, Carlos and the kid now are super Umbrella officialls. BULLSHIT. Times 2.

holy sh**, man. you are very closed minded. all you do is look at the flaws from the movie and judge the entire thing on them.
first of all, the first RE movie wasnt that bad. it could have been a lot better, but it wasnt. its a good thing they didnt use the original game story because everone knows what happens in it. people know the story, who dies, who lives, and how it plays out. if they made the first movie like it, it would be worse because it wouldnt be suprising to find out what happens. the story is very good in the first one, just not everthing happened how it should have. it did, however, fall very far away from the big game aspects. it had a few little ones like how monsters attack and the camera angles.
ok, if you didnt like the 2nd movie, then you are completly insane, or not a true RE fan. it was an awesome movie with few flaws that did not really ruin the movie. the lickers in the 2nd were awesome and the CGI wasnt crap at all. CGI is very expensive and thats about the best it can get right now. if you wanna see crap CGI, then watch Raptor Island on the SciFi channel.
Nemesis was very well done, ill agree with you on that. the movies biggest flaw was probably where he turns good at the end. if you wanna read more on it, the go read my and Burnside's reviews in the Resident Evil thread in the Hobbies and Interests section. and as for Nemesis being part of Umbrella Europe, that doesnt really matter. they cant add every little detail of the games in the movies.
the STARS members were not done very well at all. Jill's and Carlos's acting was pretty bad at some parts, and they said really stupid crap that the real characters would never say. its a good thing that movie was all action because thats what people wanna see. it was fantastic, in my opinion.
the ending wasnt that bad either. and as for it being "the worst ending ever", you are very veeeery wrong. go to the RE thread and read my review of the Alternate Ending from the first movie and youll see. but back to 2's ending. it was good for it leaving rom for the sequel, which is called Resident Evil Afterlife and will be out in a couple of years. i think its gonna be even better than 2 was, if Anderson improves right. it wasnt stupid that Alice had super powers, because shes genetically enhanced, because Umbrella made her that way. she had powers throughout the whole movie if you paid attention. the ending was good for how the movie was.
you are most likely not a true RE fan, like me, and thats why you didnt like the movies. dont try and bring it all down by pointing all of the little mistakes out.

The guys name was Brad, who Nemesis kills in the game. Brad Vickers, STARS Alpha chopper pilot, nicknamed 'Chickenheart'.
The thing about the movie is you have to watch it and NOT connect everything to the games, because quite obviously it doesn't fit with any of the videogames at all and therefore is different to the games, just like the novels of the games which feature alot of different ideas. Try to connect it with the games, it looks bad. Watch it as it's own senario, it's great.
My main beef was the camera work, as you said. I don't think i actually clearly saw a zombie fack.

It's definately a cinema movie. Lots of action.

Watching it on a crappy comp. monitor would ruin it.

That's right! I've been waiting since I saw the first one (it was also the first movie I ever downloaded, a crappy cam version LOL). Man, so much has happened since then, in all aspects of my life.

Neo of The Matrix, when he is killing the guards in the rooftop before he dodged the bullets from that Agent. Cool huh?

Ah, i see it now. Very cool!
I can do that move too, the one where he dodges the bullets. Not in the gravity-defying way he does but close enough. *grin*
