You don't remember netflix making wesker black?
I didn't even know there was a Netflix adaptation, and i just checked to see if this trailer was it or not (if i got it right, this is a movie and that was a tv show).
Was Tyrone Wesker the good guy all along in that one, and the T-virus was a cure for white supremacy?

The HIV virus is the cure for white blood cells.

b) White people gunning down mindless sub-humans can be interpreted as problematic
Really? Please elaborate.
Anything can be problematic if you want it hard enough, and the klessik trappings of a zombie horror have plenty of potential. You just have to think like a proper SocJus comrade:
  • A minority of protagonists vs hordes of zombies as an allegory for the supremacy of the 1%
  • A minority of white protagonists vs hordes of zombies (whose skin is no longer white due to decay) as an allegory for white supremacy
  • Gun-toting protagonists vs unarmed zombies as an allegory for the gun-toting Trump supporters
  • Gunt-toting police protagonists as an allegory for police brutality
  • Police protagonists in general
  • Zombies as an allegory for NPCs
  • The T-Virus as an allegory for Covid vaccines (made all the more problematic with Umbrella being an evil pharmaceutical company)
  • Too many - or not enough - female zombies / zombies of color as a sign of sexism / racism
  • And not to mention that zombies have always been cultural appropriation of the unique and interesting Voodo culture

this woke garbage will make you think that the Jovovich crap wasn't too bad after all.
Both horrid, for different reasons. Does it matter what you eat, if you end up with diarrhoea in both cases?

And the first Mortal Kombat movie was dumb fun, it wasn't trying to be anything else. Not a great movie, but I don't have a problem with it. I have many problems with every fucking Resident Imbecil movie that was made.

I kinda respect the balls they had for not giving a fuck, making everything about a character that doesn't exist in the games, and setting up crazy shit (especially for the cliffhangers) that gets effectively retconned in the opening scene of the next movie (Alice is an overpowered psychic now? One syringe later and she's back to square one! Alice has an army of clones? Now they're all dead!)
I'm not sure if that latter part was just hack writing, or Anderson trying to replicate the video game shtick of depowering the player character from the lofty heights of last game's endgame (even if that has never really been a thing with RE).

Honestly, I thought the new movie was the Netflix show. It looked just cheap enough to be some direct-to-streaming shit.

It helps that the game's plot is hard to screw up, since it's just a martial arts tournament story and the movie follows that closely instead of making its own shit like Street Fighter did . My only gripe is that they turned Scorpion and Sub-Zero into mindless lackeys.

It's Netflix. If you can think of it, they have a Netflix Original Series (tm) of it in the works.

I did a newspapers search on Angry Joe and other than a few brief mentions alongside Nostalgia Critic articles, no one has ever done a piece on him. This is how boring he is. He has millions of viewers but no one ever talks about him.

What's shocking is that these movies made mad cash. That's why there are so many - not in US, but for some unfuckable reason, especially the later ones did very well in the world. I don't know who's watching that - the chinese maybe? Perhaps that's what inspired them to invent their own T-virus to have something to unleash.
