an action movie

🙂 True,but it's only an ''average'' zombie movie and only an ''average'' action movie,so it really would be interesting to see how well this series would of gone if people never played or heard of the game.My bet is a lot of people would of stopped watching them after apocalypse but the thing is you will get the videogame fanboys that will continue paying to see these movies no matter how bad they get

Maybe, but you'd be surprised how many "average" movies do well money wise.
I don't think it's THAT many of the game's fans, especially with how big piracy is nowadays...

🙂 Can someone merge this thread please?
Jovovich told New York Magazine that a fifth film is in the works. She explained, "We’ve been talking to a lot of fans on Twitter and stuff, so it’s probably going to be one of the first movies where we really talk to fans to see what they want, and what characters they want to see. It's going to be a more interactive process".[48]
Please tell me this means Alice will go away.

not a chance. She's married to the director.
So? Every other director is married and they don't bring their wives into the movies. Sure Milla is "famous" but she and everybody else should know by now that she's unwanted. Her character and her husband are harming the Resident Evil franchise and they would know about it if they weren't so blinded by money.

I think by the third one the series had attracted an audience on it's merits as a film series as opposed to a video game to film adaptation. i would guess that series was relying very little on fan outpouring and response by the third movie. Now whether or not it's video game roots were solely responsible for the success of the first two movies, i think is more likely so. Had there been no correlation to the Video games i don't think the series would have made it this far, at least with theatrical releases but the first movie probably would have been popular enough to have spawned a sequel. Action horror or action si-fi with a big budget is always going to draw a crowd and i think it's safe to surmise that many popular action, horror and sci-fi movies are generally below average in their quality. ]

but as you said, they're making money; that's what's important to the studio.
