anyone seen it yet? its out today!
I like the resi series (including the games) and i'm looking forward to it.

I want to see it in the cinema. What kids aren't allowed, you don't say?
Wonderful!!

Yeah, i like these games and movies, - i haven't seen Extinction yet, but even if it is crap, i'll be enjoying it! I liked the first 2 movies, - thought the 2nd one was better, at least it had actual characters from the games in it! And a bit of scope, with the entire Raccoon City as it's setting...

Well, i thought it was cool...

HAh! Seen it! 'tis good too. On a par with the first i'd say (though i agree with you Peab, the second one was good for widening the csope of things). Ahh Milla Jovovich

I think I like the games too much to like the movies. I get too disappointed in what's missing/added in the movies. The first one was only really linked by having zombies and a couple of the monsters.

Must admit I've not been that keen on the trailers I've seen. I got into the games after the first two films and I'd love to see a film based on the first one where they're stuck in a mansion.

I find it odd how the films centre around a character that has never been in any of the games, yet they draw so much inspiration from the games, including so many of it's characters.

I like zombie movies but something about the look of this film makes me not want to see it. Being set in a desert might have something do with that.

Is it worth stealing illegally off the Interne*cough* going to see it at the cinema?

I'm looking forward to RE5 to be honest more than anything, there's not enough information on the game though. Are you looking forward to this too?

I was well into the earlier games in the series, - I've played the director's cut of the 1st, and the 2nd game, through about 20 times a piece..

Kinda lost interest after the remakes on the 'cube, - which is a bit weird, coz most people say 4 is the best... I'm guessing RE5 will be like 4?

I'm more into Tom Nook and Kirby nowadays, - must be senility kickin' in...

I think I'm one of the few who still prefers the style of the original. The change of gameplay style in the forth one wasn't really to my taste although I still enjoyed it.
