Resident Evil

Luckily, got the boys doing, like, other casts, like Weekly Geek and everything.

I'll be back for Resident Evil and then the Halloween one on Monday, which again, tonight we're doing a Halloween stream, me and Taylor, 8:30 PM PST.

It's gonna be lots of fun.

Uh, but unfortunately just that time, you know? It's- she is turning 13 in October, so she's already, like, kicked out of the life expectancy for what a bulldog is, is 10 to 12.

Gotta put 15 to 20 hours into it in an already busy time.

Um, then I got to find the time to review it, and hopefully that all works out.

Got Resident Evil next week, and there's just other things I want to do.

So I don't know.

By all metrics, the first attempt was very popular and profitable.

This is a new version of Resident Evil directed by weapons and barbarian director Zack Kreger.

How hard is it to come up with new scares, not just in concept, but also maybe jump scares or just an image or something? And what do you lean into when you kind of like hit that challenge? You know, like I got to find something we've never seen before.

Kreger and the main actor Austin Abrams as Brian sat down with Fox News Entertainment reporter Ashley Dvorkin to talk about the upcoming film.

The $1.25 million Tier 1 LAN in Suzhou, China concludes its playoff bracket over the weekend.

And those are the gaming events taking place around the world.

Resident Evil has always been a hit in the video games and movies for a long time.

The problem with the movie franchise, it's kind of not part of the video game.

So, um, but yeah, passing it back to King for one more before we hit the big story.

Sam, how many newscasts did we do on the Patreon where I was able to cram in an update about the Resident Evil franchise? I think almost every single episode.

Oh, my God.

And that's not going to change, okay? Because the new Resident Evil reboot film unveils a new video clip.

Sony Pictures Entertainment began streaming during Sony's State of Play livestream on Thursday a video clip for the new live-action reboot of Capcom's Resident Evil.

Resident Evil.

Survival horror game franchise.

The video features the film star Austin Abrams as Brian.

I want you to make a case for the people out there, because I saw you tweet about it, on why...

You should go see the Resident Evil movie next week.

I know you haven't seen it.

Oh, my God.

It's sad.

It is so sad.

As a lifelong Resident Evil fan, it is so sad to see the state in which every...

We have seen Resident Evil go from some of the greatest tank control survival horror games ever released to over-the-shoulder revolutionizing some of the over-the-shoulder radical gameplay in Resident Evil 4 to couch co-op less horror, more action, fun-based Resident Evil 5 into a... whatever the fuck Amalgamation Resident Evil 6 was, where they tried to put every single bit of previous Resident Evil into that one game.

Weapons.

He's directing the new Resident Evil movie.

And I don't know if you've been following this discourse, John, but there's a certain like segment of RE game fans that are like, Not thrilled with the fact that they finally got a new take on Resident Evil and it's like still not the games.

They're very upset about it.

This is essentially how this film is being pitched as kind of like in the world of Resident Evil 2, but kind of a parallel story.

I can, he's been very open and forward about coming out and describing, he's tried to make this as much as he could, like the experience of a survival horror game.

Like he's a fan.

And so I have a quote here.

um i think we're nearing the tail end of this rocky mountain conversation we have more to get to but i do want to ask about um what the studios were showing uh i haven't spoken to shayla about this yet but alissa you were saying like the screenings were really good that the stuff that they were showing from the studios to everyone that attended was more above and beyond than even when we were attending last year do you want to you guys want to dive into that a bit more

yeah no i mean we got to see like the first 15 minutes or so resident evil which i was so excited for i was not i was not prepared for that i was like oh wait a minute

it just kept on going it was so great it was so good oh my gosh it was just like mind-blowing and everybody like did they clap after it they absolutely clapped people were

excited which i mean i know you guys are sick of me saying this now i'm so stoked for this movie And I've been trying to tell people, like, oh, this is such a good horror movie to try if you haven't tried horror.

Especially with how different it is from the first one, too.

I mean, they really took their own direction with it, and it's still tracking well, and people are really excited for it, and yeah.

Ken and I were saying last week that we think this Resident Evil, not that they've been like big... box office openings but this one could like reach 40 million opening maybe 45 higher maybe that

it's tracking it to up to 100 million for the opening what really that's what google says i can't trust google but my height i was gonna say 70

really excited

to see Resident Evil.

I am, too.

I did not think I was going to be as excited for it as I am.

I mean, I'm excited to see what Zack Kreger does with Resident Evil.

I just like the fact that he's coming, so there's not going to be... like the game.

Yeah.

So, yeah.

And then we have a exciting our next half episode after that, I believe, should be Resident Evil, the new Zack Greger movie.

Again, another video game related thing.

And yeah, I'm I'm excited for that movie.
