They think we're idiots!

Rating: 1/10 (1 December 2005)

I think the reason this film went so wrong is that most people neither understand nor respect games. They assume that they're all about shootin' commi's or appealing to a persons blood-lust. But that's not why I play video-games, I play them because of the participatory plot-lines.
When I was watching the special features for the Resident Evil2 DVD they all had that gung-ho "we're gonna whoop some zombie butt". "This is the ultimate fight against the power". "I love Jill's impatience". Bull sh*t!
Jill is not a super-heroine! She's a coward! The first time she sees a zombie she runs out to Barry shouting "It's a monster! It's a monster! Shoot it!" It's not that I think women can't be heroes it's just that ... Jill isn't. She's on that team for her investigatory skills, not her battle readiness.
Both movies were complete failures. If anyone on the project is reading this remember; We aren't idiots.
