In the period between my submission to the site that would become Flixist and the e-mail that congratulated me for not writing about Inception getting picked from a massive pool of applicants to write for this fine, fine e-stablishment, I decided win or lose, I was going to write about movies. One of the reviews I did, my personal favorite in fact, was about the fourth film in the Resident Evil franchise, Resident Evil: Afterlife.
Franchise staple/wife of director Paul W. S. Anderson, Milla Jovovich recently let loose with all sorts of delicious tidbits about the upcoming fifth installment, Resident Evil: Retribution. Said tidbits are kind of spoiler-y, so peep them below.
[Via Collider]Let’s do a quick rundown of the revelations regarding Retribution (more like Resident Evil: Alliteration, amirite?)
- Chris and Claire Redfield and K-Mart are out (due to being in Umbrella’s evil clutches)
- Jill’s back (and presumably mind-controlled, judging from how Afterlife ended)
- We finally get long-standing video game characters Barry(!), Leon, and Ada Wong
- Jovovich wants a sixth film that brings all the main characters together
- The Las Plagas parasite will be a plot device
- We’ll get an epic Alice/Jill fight
- Finally, a super-epic chase scene is promised, as seen below:
the red square sequence is THE MOST COMPLICATED CHASE SCENE PAUL HAS EVER PLANNED FOR! ITS GONNA BE EPIC!
its gonna be SIIIIICK!! paul leaves the production meeting reeling from the logistical complications off how 2 shoot them!!
we’ll b the 1st movie 2 hve a chase scene in a rolls royce which we will get shot up, but still runs cause they’re awesome!
Now, I know you only have 140 characters at a time to dispense such juicy information, but really? To be fair, I’m a stickler for grammar and punctuation, even when I’m drunk-texting.
Anyhow, are you excited for the fifth installment of the franchise? If you asked me yesterday, I would’ve looked at you like you just denied the Holocaust, then maced you, then sexed up your mother. But now that Barry’s involved, well, we’ll just have to wait and see.
