I am sure there are some people, like me, whom enjoy lots of action, bad-a$$, kick butt females, and a movie that simply relates to one of our favorite pasttimes (playing Resident Evil). ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[PappaCed4]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 24th 2008 2:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[(remember, Jill, the master of unlocking?)  No I really don't remember that.  I played every game all the way through but stopped with Nemesis.  Personally I think the movies could of been made very well.  Michelle Rod should of died... and early on at that I can't stand that type cast tough as nail mexican B*tch.  If they would get directors that played the games and loved them...... whatever not gonna rant anymore.  And whoever wrote the resident evil review didn't play the games either unless she was just a natural lock picker in the games after Nemesis because I remember having to use codes and find objects to open everything in the games.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[nfxneofight]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 22nd 2008 1:20PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ha! How can anyone forget the first game's really bad writing. My favorite of the cheezy dialogue:<br><br>Barry Burton: That was too close. You were almost a Jill sandwich! <br><br>Barry Burton: Jill, here's a lockpick. It might come in handy if you, "the master of unlocking", take it with you. <br><br>Albert Wesker: I'm sorry for my lack of manners, but I'm not used to escorting men.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Innovator]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 23rd 2008 7:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[Resident Evil movies have been entertaining.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 23rd 2008 12:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[I liked the movie Resident Evil a lot (the sequals, not so much) It made me want to play the game, as opposed to some other movies]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jere]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 22nd 2008 5:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[Generally we need film critics like fish need bicycles.

(we'll chalk the dialoge up to crappy japanese-to-english translation.) however, i think it's unfair to judge the story based on how it's told. i adore the games, the books are awesome, and the movies were okay as movies. the first one gave me nightmares!  @____@<br><br>btw, on a side note doom had a story. not a good one, but it was there.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[evalpenguin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 26th 2008 8:14AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[People whine about movies too much and they need to get a life.

My boyfriend is the biggest video game freak ever, and when he dragged me to see Resident Evil (never having, to this day, ever played the games), I assumed I was going to be bored out of my mind. Not so, however, I thought it was awesome. I thought Nemesis was cheesy as all hell, but at least they had good characters to redeem the movie. Extinction was the best by far. It was done so well. So you, sir, in my humble opinion, can suck it. You have no idea what you're talking about.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mary]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2008 1:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ok...  We need better critics, because the movies and the games where pretty close.  You had all the main char's, had the whole try and stop umbrella from doing their thing.  The movies arent supposed to be just like the games, but close enough so the viewer gets she/he thrill.  I got my thrill from playing all the Resident Evil games and watching the movies.  If your going to complain about a movie not being like the game then complain about the game not being like the comic books or the novels.  I am just saying, their not supposed to be a like but are in a small way...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[BWelkeMMA]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2008 12:22AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[Holy christ. I suppose next you'll say that 'Talladega Nights' lacks an innovative camera man who captured the emotions of the cast in his shots. Come on dude, cut them some slack.<br><br>I can only really speak on behalf of Resident Evil, and though I disliked them (simply because they should((could)) have made it more horrifying), it's not half as bad as described here. I wouldn't recommend spending money on them, though.<br><br>Now, if you want a GOOD game to movie translation, Silent Hill is the one for you.

I'm glad they didn't have an entire hotel with 100 locked doors and a single room with just ammo in a shopping cart. Yet, at the same time you had that same creepy, you are screwed feeling to it. Although, for the end of the movie they through in some extra stuff to make better sense of the movie, but ya i'm glad they finished it with the same type of ending in the games where you are still pretty much left wondering if the characters got out..<br><br>In the end though it's about makin money or having a hobby... no?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bacon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2008 5:18AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/07/21/worst-game-to-movie-translations-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[the first movie was good , the 2nd was ok, the 3rd was ok(but not as good at the 2nd) but towards the end of the movie it was awful]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bodoku]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 27th 2008 7:55AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
