I made the mistake of reading's Anderson script

Rating: Null/10 (20 April 2004)

Paul SW Anderson's script for resident Evil was wonderful and I rushed out to rent the movie. I was heart broken when certain things didn't make it into the final film.
Overall good -- though not as gory or suspenseful as I thought it should be, and I am not a gory and action kind-of-guy either.
Killing the Red Queen so early and not having the scene where she helps them find the secret passageway to safety while the beast is on their tails wasn't wise. I missed the White Queen also. And the many references in the script regarding the Alice in Wonderland were reduced to a white rabbit and the Red Queen herself. She didn't even look in the garden to see the characters from the story (i.e. Mad Hatter etc.) And there was no chess board microchip.
The film did seem disjointed -- probably because the Producers chopped up his film. I gather he didn't have final cut and it shows. Spence and Alice also seemed to have had scenes removed. And JD and Rain's roles were reversed from the original script.
I don't want to sound down -- I really liked the script, and the film and I will be looking for the game as well.
