So I’ve heard rumors about an adaptation of *Resident Evil 0*. I mean, it seems kinda off to me. Wouldn’t it make more sense to blend *Zero* and *One* instead of focusing solely on *Zero*? That doesn’t quite add up.

Honestly, if they’re going to make films based on the games, they should start with the first one instead of jumping straight to Resident Evil 2. The last attempt at this didn’t go well because they tried to cover too much too quickly, and it ended up being a jumbled mess.

I hear you, but Resident Evil 1 just doesn’t have the depth of story needed to really carry a film. At least 2 has enough substance to stand on its own for a full movie.

I totally get that! The first movie did capture the essence of the game, but the sequels just went off the rails. It’s wild how they messed up a premise that could’ve been a straight-up B-movie classic.

SkipTheMovie -

Honestly, I don’t think a new RE movie should even happen. The last ones were just disappointing.

One can only hope they get it right someday… but today is definitely not that day.

CultClassicLover -

Forget about movies! We need a TV series instead. They could either go full campy ’80s style or introduce entirely new characters. Imagine an anthology series that lets them explore various stories. I love Leon and Chris, but they just can’t seem to do them justice on screen.

ClearlyNotAFan -

Honestly, they should just stop with the adaptations. It’s not working.

TheRealRickGrimes -

I think it’s a bit too ambitious for the talent that would typically be involved. A better idea might be a prequel set in the mansion before the first game, focusing on what’s happening there. That way, they could keep it small-scale and focus on character development, plus it might only require a few actors and some clever minimal VFX.

DeadInside90 -

I honestly think they should just give up on making these movies. The animated film *Resident Evil Degeneration* is as good as it’s gotten; it has all the classic elements like Leon, Claire, and true RE zombies.
