Paul Anderson Writing Resident Evil 4 Soon
Horror Movie News, Resident Evil 4: Afterlife (2010) Movie — By Nix on October 16, 2008
Apparently “Resident Evil 4″ has gone from a “maybe” to a “probably”, at least if Paul W.S. Anderson has anything to say about it. Not all that long ago, Anderson went public with the news that he was currently talking to the studio about doing a fourth “Resident Evil” movie, but that nothing had come from it. Yet. That appears to have changed. Anderson, currently in the UK promoting his futuristic remake “Death Race”, is saying that he will begin writing “Resident Evil 4″ very soon.
Via Horror-movies.ca:
Paul W.S. Anderson was recently in the UK promoting his new film their Death Race. While he was talking to the Sunday Sun he mentioned, “I’m writing an adaptation of the Long Good Friday right now, set in present-day Miami. Then I will probably write Resident Evil 4.”
Of course, this is either good news or bad news, depending on how you approach movies with the name “Paul W.S. Anderson” stamped anywhere around it. I happen to think the man has a lot of talent, but that he always finds ways to, well, stop just short of being really, really good. All of his movies have the same potential, but for one reason or another, they just never seem to get over the hump.
In any case, “Resident Evil 4″ is probably on the way. There’s just no good reason not to do it, especially considering the box office take of the previous three films. I wasn’t exactly thrilled with the last movie, in particular the seemingly “passing of the torch” subplot from Alice to Claire that, in true Anderson fashion, didn’t seem to go anywhere.
Below: “So, ah, what’s the deal with the ‘passing of the torch’ there, Milla”?

Okay…this is going to stop right NOW PAUL ANDERSON!!! i dont know what your thinking but this is going to stop! I will not see a next Resident evil movie made by you, you have destroyed the entire series of resident evil, you mix up all the characters from the games and make Nemesis a good guy!! WTF!!? you cant freaking do that and why do carlos die i third movie?? Why did he die?? he was awesome :’( and he look like chris redfield and why are jill and carlos not in the same movie?? And jill? oh man she not even look like the jill from the games. Man you fuck the hole up on that, from now on let Capcom make the Resident evil movies, just look at Resident evil Degeneration. Man that was a real resident evil movie with characters you know and like, if you ever make are resident evil 4 and make alex have a army of super clones of her self, will i just say this ahem…YOU ARE GOING TO HELL FOR THAT!! and if you let clarie die in the i next movie will freaking kill myself! For thats the only person beside carlos that i really like.
But dont make are 4 movie, its going to suck even if you put leon in it and other stuff, it will suck for you have made 3 other movies thats suck balls. So stop make the resident evil movie and let Capcom do that or Peter Jackson, i think he will make are better movie of resident evil, and it will be a lot better when all your resident evil films together.
Fuck Paul Anderson. After such atrocities as Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat Annihilation and his “Resident Evil” movies, he proved one single thing; this guy is worse than fucken Joel Schumacher when he ruined Batman! HISTORY’S GREATEST MONSTER! Those movies are nothing but inhumanities of man! Cinema is crying you asshole! Stop before you kill it!
First off! How can you guys even critique a movie when you can’t even write? There are alot of things wrong with the movies, but you can’t follow a video game perfectly. It would take place in a box! That said, I think the next one should follow Allice on a one way mission to take out the Umbrella Corp. and about half way through start to lean on Clair in Alaska. I think one clone should slip through the craks so that hot chick that got most of us guys to see the first movie can show up now and then!!!
yooooo the first resident evil was wack the second one was the best and had more action in it then the third one it was alright and you people dont know what you talkin about and when they make the fourth film it will be better then the other ones and besides i know what im saying i’ve been playing the games for 11 years and im 15 years old
I loved the the three parts of Resudent Evil. They were sooooooo wonderful.I can’t wait for the 4th part.
UPDATE from my last post:”November 27, 2008 at 8:29 pm”
I did see Resident evil Degeneration, it was good, But I still want to see a Part 4 with her clones.
Even If they are Only willing to make 1 last Movie, They could warp it all up into a 3 hour movie and call it good. But That Last one Would need to be The most HARD Core Action ever seen in Resident evil with all them clones, The Movie Would need 3 hours of action to really do it Right.
You guys have no taste. resident evil is freaking awsome. if you guys actually got your heads out of your asses and looked around, video gmaes, books, and movies aren’t made exactly the same anymore. Did you ever stop to think that maybe the game wouldnt be as good if it was the movie? I know that requires a lot of time, work, and effort on your part, but I know you can do it. Take the first Harry Potter book for example. The movie was completely different from the book, but it fucking kicked ass. PAUL ANDERSON DEFINETLY NEEDS TO MAKE A FOURTH RESIDENT EVIL!!!!!!!!! You can’t set up the end of a movie for an all out war (Resident Evil 3: Camera pans out to show a large amount of Alice clobes) and just stop. Resident Evil has to go on. And if you have nothing but critisism, keep your trap shut. Nobody wants to hear your unwanted opinions. Just do yourself a favor and stfu!
i say making a resident evil 4 movies is great and all but it would be better if its like degeneration but more atletic
