Resident-Evil Dump
September 24, 2007What kind of box office dumpster of a weekend does it take to put the new Resident Evil movie at the top of the charts.
I kinda liked the first Resident Evil movie. But the second was horrible and I'd put someone else's money on the third one be a substandard also.
It's based on a video game. How many successful movies have their been that have been based on a video game.
Don't get me wrong. I'd play Resident Evil on Playstation 2 all day, but I can't go near the DVD.
Good luck Chuck was a not-even-close 2nd place. Dane Cook is a good comedian with charisma, but maybe he should stick to hosting Saturday Night Live.
Back to the whole, video-game-turned-feature-film point. Mario Brothers tanked and it had that guy from Easy Rider, not Jack Nicholson or Peter Fonda, and John Leguizamo.
What else?...
The Wizard, with Fred Savage, was based on a kid who was a genius gamer, but that's not the angle I'm going for.
I've drawn a blank.
Regardless, don't see Resident Evil. Rent something like Donnie Darko and have a ball.
