The Weekly Planet - Resident Evil: Retribution - Caravan Of Garbage
Episode Date: September 10, 2026We've been looking at the Paul WS Anderson/Milla Jovovich Resident Evil movies for what feels like one hundred million years. And it's a crying shame that all of us are coming to realise that these m...ovies might not actually be good. In addition to Alice coming back as always we also get the return of Michelle Rodriguez, Colin Salmon and Oded Fehr characters confirmed long dead. PLUS the introduction of more beloved game characters Leon S. Kennedy and Ada Wong! All this feels like it should add up to something but we're sorry to report that is not the case.

Before watching Resident Evil 5, Resident Evil Retribution,
I couldn't tell you what this movie was about for all the bread and cheese in China, Mason.
I couldn't tell you.
My goodness.
Yeah.
Not even for all the umbrella bucks, which is presumably some sort of post-apocalyptic currency.
Currency made out of pieces of an umbrella.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know I probably couldn't do that either.
Interesting.
I just had no memory of, I knew it was the clones one.
But beyond that, like what is this one supposed to be?
you know?
I don't even know if I'd seen this one.
You're going to say, surely I had.
I don't know if you have seen it.
I think maybe I tapped out at four.
This is five though, right?
This is five, all right?
This is definitely five.
We've got, it's this one.
We just got to get through this one.
And then we've got one more, or we stop at five.
Let us know in the comments.
Should we just stop at five?
We could.
We stopped at one blade movie.
That's right.
We're never going to do any more blade movies.
Well, we did promise we do another blade movie when the MCU makes a blade movie.
And they haven't.
I'm not talking about dead.
Pool versus Wolverine, by the way.
Are you talking about those what if episodes
where he was like Blade Blade Night
or whatever? That's what I'm talking about you. But they haven't
made one of those, so I'm not worried about it
Mason at all. Terrific. If you've seen
it, it's just an AI thing. It's not real.
Don't worry about it. You can't convince me.
Anyways, please leave a like for this one.
Oh, yeah. I appreciate the little vlog
that Alice does at the start to be like, okay,
so this is what happened in the first movie.
Yada, yada, yada, yada. Other movies shipping containers.
It's very interesting. This one gets a recap.
And I...
But it's only...
the recap of the first movie really. But it really
it is. It's the recap of the first movie. Also who is she
talking to? Are her audience
on YouTube? Is it us? Yes.
I guess we are her audience on YouTube. All her
subscribers. What else are you going to
do in the post-apocalyptic future if you're
down in one of those 3D wireframe bunkers or whatever?
Is this a Vimeo exclusive?
Yeah, it's a Vimeo exclusive. It's the only video on Vimeo
is what it is. But it's
interesting because this, initially I'm like...
Leave a like. We have to.
Yeah, I know. Initially, I'm like,
why is this one, why is this one
the one that gets the recap? And then
of course we learn, spoiler alert, because it's in
the opening titles, it's going to bring back several of the
characters from Resident Evil One.
That's why, because they want to remind the audience of the characters
from Resident Evil One, but why?
It's pointless. Because they could be anybody.
Yeah. They're just mind.
They don't have the same personalities.
No, they don't have any memories of her. They're just,
it's the same actors, and it's nice to see him again.
It's nice to see Colin Salman as one.
James the one shade.
James the one shade.
I'd forgotten that he was in this.
Well, he's the one.
He certainly is.
Michelle Rodriguez is back as rain.
And another lady.
Another lady.
Again, it's a fascinating idea because, of course, one is, you know,
we learn that umbrella has been taking DNA fragments
and cloning various people for various reasons.
They've built underground bunkers where they manufacture like a whole town or a city or whatever.
But why?
And they populate it with people.
give them all memories and they give them stuff to do and jobs and families or whatever.
And then they just drop the T virus on them or whatever just to see what'll happen.
You know what's going to happen. You already know what's going to happen.
It's made the apocalypse for a while now.
Why are you still doing this?
We've determined that if we drop the T virus, it would kill everybody in the world and turn over to zombies.
Yeah, it happened already. You don't have to keep testing this, honestly.
But yeah, so what we learn is that they've been doing this.
So there's a bunch of Colin Salman's out there and a bunch of Michelle Rodriguez.
is out there.
Yeah, they're going to hang it off racks like it's fucking dry cleaning.
Exactly.
And so I'm like, oh, that's quite interesting.
What's going to happen when...
That's interesting.
That's interesting.
What's going to happen when, you know, season soldier Michelle Rodriguez meets suburban,
you know, a girl boss, Michelle Rodriguez.
Nothing, because they don't.
But that would also be expensive.
That would be like Jet Lees the one, speaking of, where he fights Jet Lees the one.
The split screen would be expensive.
And the split diopter?
Are you kidding me?
Oh, my God.
You know?
Oh, yeah.
And then you're like, oh, but maybe, you know, Michelle Rodriguez's character gets another chance to live.
No, she double dies.
Spoiler alert.
Yeah.
One of them gets dragged down into a frozen lake by some zombies, and the other one, the suburban one, just gets thrown into a big stone thing and cracks their head open and dies.
Yeah.
Pretty cool.
And she was the one that was like, I don't even like guns.
I'm a liberal.
I went to liberal arts college.
I'd rather smash my head into a big stone monument or side of a building or whatever to use a gun.
Oh, I did.
Hooray!
You know the opening of this?
Yes.
So it opens pretty much exactly where the last one ends, where the Umbrella Corporation are converging on that big ship where all the people came out of, including Kmart.
And it's in reverse.
Yes.
And I'm like, okay, something has happened around this time.
And this movie was edited by Niven Howie.
Which is an obviously backwards name.
It'd be Howie Niven, surely.
Absolutely it would.
Suspicious.
Suspicious.
Fake name.
Probably Paul W.S. Anderson did this.
But anyway, what happened in time?
Well, yeah, so I was thinking, yeah,
what's a popular thing that might have happened around this time
that Paul W.S. Anderson took?
Because he does the Mortal Kombat X-ray bone breaking as well.
Yeah, he does.
Which came out the year before.
This is the first trailer for Dead Island from 2011.
Do you remember that one?
Okay, and this came out in 2012.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Okay, so it was boiling and bubbling in his head for a few months anyway.
Let's do Dead Island.
Let's do Dead Island.
That was zombies.
Yeah.
That was zombies.
Wow, wow, wow, wow.
Even though there's no zombies in that opening, I think.
Because it's just gyrocopters and jumping and explosions.
Jill Valentine.
Although you don't recognize it as Jill Valentine.
I don't recognize anybody in this.
Other stuff, you know.
So Umbrella had previously had made fake multiple city blocks sized,
versions of New York and Moscow and Japan.
Japan and whatever.
Which is the one we saw in Resident Evil goes to Japan, I guess.
Yes, but that was the real one.
And this is recreating that.
Because remember, they crash land into that at the start.
Yeah.
Because the facility is underground.
But doesn't this one have exactly the same guy that gets bitten by a zombie
in it, like literally exactly?
Clones, man.
Pay attention.
Okay.
All right.
But yes, it does.
And the same zombie lady that does it.
To the exact same guy.
Yeah.
And the initial reason they did this, and this is before the outbreak, is because they were demonstrating to the different powers of the world what it would do on a population.
To their nemesies.
Yeah.
On a, like a highly urbanized environment.
And then they sold it to all the different factions of the world.
And that's how the T-Virus started.
So it wasn't...
Australia probably bought theirs to drop it on New Zealand.
Probably.
Yeah.
I'm okay with that.
Yeah.
So it wasn't one outbreak.
No.
It was a series of outbreaks.
It was an arouse.
arms race. But yeah, like you said, they're still doing it. And so they're running these
billion dollar survival scenarios for nobody. It's bizarre. Well, you know, they got the budget
for it. And if they don't spend the budget that year, they drop the budget next year. So you got
you got to do it. In fact, you do it. And then you're like, we could do with a few more blocks
next year of Russia or whatever. Yeah, whatever. They're like, all right. Yeah. This also, I feel like
is kind of, it's just like a remake
or homage of the first movie.
And one of the reveals in this initially
was going to be that that team that went
underground in the first one, they were clones.
Right. And these were the...
So these in this movie might be the originals.
It's never said, but I think it is
in expanded media that everybody...
Yuck expanded media. Agree. And not the games.
I'm talking about the novelizations of like these
movies. Is that everybody who pretty much
works for umbrella is a clone.
That's why they... Because why would you?
You would just, you know, not.
You just not, just don't.
Anyway, so Alice, you know, there's a fake Alice and then she's killed, but she has a daughter or whatever.
But then the real Alice.
Okay, but I was going to say, but that that's actually an interesting idea, right?
Yes, it is.
What does happen here is that Paul W.S. Anderson is like, oh, wait, we went four movies and we didn't give Alice any character development.
Let's do it now.
Yeah.
And then throw it away later, I guess.
What I thought was quite good in this, and I think the best part of the movie probably is the bit at the start where Anne Alice wakes up.
like a suburban housewife and she's got bangs and she's got her husband, Odette Fares come back.
He's back. And they've got a daughter. And then all of a sudden it's like, it's like suburban, you know.
It's dawn of the dead. It's dawn of the dead. It's suburban. It's dawn of the dead. And she doesn't
have any skills because she doesn't know how to do a big jump and a kick and she doesn't have two guns.
Even though that's the law. She's broken the law here. And I like that. I like that it felt very,
you know, there were some shots in there that were like reminiscent of psycho, I thought.
Sure.
Kind of interesting and fun.
And then I like the idea that, oh, and then this character died.
She's not real, but the daughter has survived.
So maybe we're going to give Alice a sort of Ripley and Aliens kind of thing.
Yeah, maybe we'll just bang out aliens in five minutes.
That's exactly right.
And then they're like, nah.
It really is like that because, well, Paul W.S. Anderson, he directed an aliens movie.
That's true.
He did the best one, Alien versus Predator.
The best Alien versus Predator movie.
I don't think that's everything.
I think it is true.
So there's kind of newish or evolved zombies in this.
One of them is a big liquor that cocoons people.
Yes.
And it takes the little girl at one point after she clings on to Alice.
And she's like, are you my mum?
And Alice is like, absolutely, sure.
Sure.
Good as any.
Yeah.
Or you can just pick one of these off the rack.
That's right.
Doesn't have to be made.
We can dress her up, however you like.
But yeah, it's also the return of the nude wake-up, which a Resident Evil loves.
Alice has been imprisoned wearing a prison jumpsuit made out of two pieces of A3 paper.
How innovative.
And, you know, if you spend all your budget on rebuilding Moscow block by block,
I guess that's all you have left for a prison uniform.
You've got to cut costs, don't you?
That's true.
Also, Albert Wesker is alive?
Yes.
It explosioned.
He explosioned, I guess.
But one of those serious explosions, like one of those cataclysmic explosions.
Yeah.
Also clones and whatever.
He probably grew back from his smirk.
He probably did.
But he's now a good guy, and he wants to work with Alice.
You've been so easily tricked.
Jason, I've seen the entirety of this movie
and by the end he is the president
and he is a good guy, I think you'll fine.
But the Red Queen in this
is now the villain who's the hologram
AI girl. And she's put together
the sweet dream team of like, you know,
of previous Resident Evil members.
Sure. So now we get new characters
because Wentworth Miller couldn't return
as Chris Redfield. Game characters
I'm talking about. We get Ada Wong
and Leon S. Kennedy.
Ada with her signature grappling hook, I guess.
Yeah. That's from Resenters.
at Evil 4 and others probably?
I'm well aware.
So that's Lee Bing Bing.
Yes.
Who's a famous actor, by the way?
Agreed.
She's in the Meg, I think.
One of the Meg movies or both of the Meg movies, I don't remember.
All her dialogue is dubbed by Sally Cahill who voices her in the video games because of her accent.
And you can, that's very noticeable.
That's interesting.
And it's interesting they actually gave some work to somebody who worked on the games.
For once?
Yeah.
Well, they nearly gave work to somebody else who worked on these games.
We'll get to it later.
Okay. But we got a Leon, played by that guy.
Johann Erb.
And we get Barry Burton.
Yes, we do.
Played by Kevin Durant.
Kevin Durant is here. What's he up to, man?
No, I'm always fascinated by what he's up to.
Seems like a nice fellow, you know?
He's implanted the apes and whatever.
That's true.
He was the blob or whatever.
Yeah.
Yeah, man. Leon Kennedy. I mean, I'm a big fan of the character.
He's not beautiful enough.
He's not beautiful enough.
Wasn't Leon Kennedy famously like, wasn't he,
designed by the female staff at Capcom to be the most beautiful man they could think of?
Absolutely. That's what I'm holding myself off.
More objectification. More objectification. I guess this guy's handsome, but he's not like,
he's not like, he couldn't be in BTS, could he? No. But Leon Kennedy could be in BTS.
Definitely. Is that what it is? BTS? Yeah, behind the scenes. That's right.
I agree. He's not, I mean, he's fine. As anybody who comes into.
But not fine. Yeah, I think their hair doesn't work on him and in live action.
Yeah.
Because it's like, you would never grow that out of this world.
You'd get grabbed immediately or you'd get pulled into a weird propeller or something.
And it's not long enough to like man-bonnet?
It's too long at the front, but yeah, but not long enough to man-butt.
It needs to be probably need an inch off the front at least, Mason.
Get in your eyes.
Get in your eyes.
Are you trying a two-gun something?
Bang, bang, bang.
Exactly.
Anyways, got signature Leon S. Kennedy clothes, which I enjoy.
Mason, the setting of this, the entire movie is actually set underground in Russian-Siberian play.
Wow, that's great.
And you know that because the elevator down there has a giant USSR flag on it,
which also is the wrong flag for this fucking era.
But whatever, Mason.
I guess because the real Russian flag now, it's not identifiable.
People will be like, what's this?
What's this supposed to be?
And you know what, Mason?
It's borshed.
It's just a picture of borsh on the flag.
You know, I love 3D maps and it becomes a 3D map and goes back to live action.
In this movie, man, I'm just fuck.
I'm sick of it.
Wow.
If there's one thing that's broken me, I'm like, okay, enough.
You nailed this already two or three movies ago.
This is devastated to be actually, to get to the point to be like...
As a great lover of the wireframe transition from computer world to real world.
Yeah.
You should have been, you should have been this movie's number one defender.
I thought I'd come in here and you'd be like, and don't you still love that?
No.
I do not love it.
You're a broken man.
I am a broken man.
Anyway, there's other zombies in this as well.
There's...
Furry hat-wearing zombie.
Yeah, so...
Soviet zombie on a motorbike.
Sobeer zombies.
I think they're too cartoon-like in this.
They're almost like left for dead kind of...
What's the one where they're all in the mall, the video game?
Oh, uh, whatever that one is.
Ball zombie man.
No, I'm going to think of it.
It's called...
Survive the mall.
No.
I thought picture perfect, but that's not what it's called.
Run around.
I'm going to look it up.
You've got a bike and a chainsaw on a stick.
Is that a Capcom game as well?
I think so.
Dead rising.
Dead rising.
God, zombies.
Picture perfect.
Yeah, I agree.
It's picture perfect as far as I'm concerned.
So Paul W. Sanderson, I was watching some BTS for this.
Oh, yes.
And he said that the reason the zombies can now ride bikes and cars and do weapons,
he just, he said, because they're mutating.
Which is also the thing they were trying to do in other movies.
Remember they were experimenting on them to get them to do like menial tasks?
Zombie butlers, I remember.
But now they can drive fucking gear shifts and motorbikes and like communicate.
But can you point them in any direction or do you just give them equipment and just let them loose?
I think you just put them in a room with a bunch of stuff and you see what they gravitate.
towards. Oh look, that one's learning
to Pogo Stick. We'll incorporate that into
our military maneuvers, Pogo Stick zombie.
So it's like raising a kid where you give them a whole
lot of different options and see whether they want to
Different knives and guns and stuff. Different heavy machinery.
Yeah. Oh, also, Big Axe Hammer Guy's back and
He's got a brother. Or clones or whatever?
Or boyfriend, girlfriend?
They could be boyfriend, girlfriends.
Yeah. I love the comically sized nail
through one of their heads. Like, it looks like a
cartoon Tom and Jerry fucking nail.
Right. That's a short-lived scenario.
isn't it?
Also, still no explanation is why they've done this.
No.
I guess it mostly worked last time.
It's just what you're gravitating towards.
You drive a nail through your head and you're right around with a big axe.
That's probably true.
This movie's also really boring and it looks bad.
There's a moment where they...
Well, it's filming in 3D again.
There's a moment where they drive, I think it's a limousine or something.
You're talking down the...
Down and into the Moscow subway station and it looks terrible.
Nothing's there.
Sometimes it is real as well, which is...
And that's hard to look at when it's real or that it's not,
when it cuts between.
And some of your favourites are getting killed off, man.
Like the guy from the previous movie who we didn't talk about, who survives.
Famous character Luther West?
Yeah, sure.
Do you think he's related to Frank West?
From Dead Rising?
Dead Rising?
Do you think they're related?
I think they're related.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think they're married.
Well, that's great.
That's great.
Yeah, he is back, isn't he?
Yeah.
It's funny.
They run around and they get out of the facility and whatever.
See, that's it.
The movie's just them.
running around. There's nothing creative or exciting.
Yeah. They're just running around from one nation to the other.
They even have the laser corridor, sort of.
Yeah.
What the fuck are we doing with this laser corridor? I'm sorry.
You were the world's number one laser corridor defender a few movies ago.
Mason, I'm currently getting one installed behind my red light sauna.
Terrific.
I'm thinking of combining them both.
That's right.
You do a cold plunge and then you defeat the laser grid corridor hallway.
And then you're ready to face the day.
You certainly are, yeah.
So they'll get out of whatever
And then there's a big confrontation
So Jill Valentine is also in this
Yeah but also it's not a big confrontation
It's worse
Yeah it is
It's boring
It's so
It's even you mentioned
They've got the giant liquor
You're not going to end the movie
With them fighting the giant liquor
No
No you can end up fighting
Jill Valentine and Michelle Rodriguez I guess
But there's the moment where she gives herself
That virus and Leon's like
I'm from Resident Evil 4
That's the last plug us from Resident Evil 4
And I'm like damn
This movie has everything
And at the same time
Nothing
Nothing for anyone.
But also, this was the point in the movie where I went, oh, I haven't seen this.
Yeah.
I would have, I realized I've seen the trailers.
I also realized in 2012 I was living in a remote part of Australia and there was no cinema.
So I definitely not seen this.
This is the moment I in the cinema said that.
I'm like, no, I haven't seen this.
I haven't seen this.
Yeah.
Michelle Rodriguez, she's invincible until she's not because of ice and whatever.
Cold plunge.
Yeah, the cold plunge.
Yeah, the cold plunge.
She should have started a day with a cold plunge in a laser grid.
Yeah.
And then maybe a green smoothie
and then she would have survived the coal plunge later.
Easy, no problem, not a problem.
But she didn't stretch.
But she's got punch you in the heart powers.
She does got punch you in the heart
and then you see the heart and the heart stops.
Powers.
Just add it.
Just shamelessly adding stuff and going,
you like this in another thing, don't you?
Yes.
Also, why is it green?
Great question.
Bones aren't green?
But these are resident evil bones, so.
Exactly right.
Just to say what is green and what is not.
And finally, someone kicks that fucking thing off Jewel Valentine's chest.
Yeah, which they should have done 90 minutes ago.
Come on, yeah.
Ridiculous.
She's not even in the next movie.
There's like no payoff of this at all.
God.
And also, and then Leon and Ader are in love.
They're like, oh, because they're a couple in the game, sort of,
or they like each other in the games.
How much screen time do they actually share in this movie?
I think the end.
Like the final conversation in the end when he puts his hand on the leg.
And she's like, don't.
Yeah.
We only know each other and our boyfriend and girlfriend
In the games
In real life
No, stop this
They also might not be boyfriend and girlfriend in the games
In real life, I find you old and ugly
Wow
Yeah
You don't find him BTS?
I don't find him BTS
Damn mad
I don't even find him
Quickly Googles
BTK
A second
He's not even the BTK killer
I don't even find him
stray kids or 17
You don't?
Nope
Wow man
That's crazy
Mm-hmm, yeah.
Anyways, they're summoned to the Oval Office, where the president is there.
Regular president?
Mason, I mentioned this earlier.
You know it's not the regular president.
It's Albert Wesker.
Okay, but now it could be any worse than the regular president.
Oh, oh!
All right, okay.
Things are heating up in here.
There's the political satire alert.
That's going off.
We did it, folks.
I thought the twist was going to be, and it probably is in the next movie,
that the red hologram girl was good,
and he was evil
because he's fucking
Albert Wesker
and he's always the bad guy
but he gives Milojovich
her resident evil powers back
which is her mind pushing abilities
and whatever I should
and being big and strong and fast
and running around and kicking a dog
yeah that's right
but things are getting really hectic
at the White House
because it's all being stormed upon
and whatever
anyway so we talk about every week
but like what's memorable
what's the thing you know
from this
and I think it's clones
I think it's just this is the clones one.
Yeah, but I thought a previous one was the clones one as well.
Like that doesn't jump out at me.
I guess it's...
Some of them are the clones one.
I guess it's X-ray Mortal Kombat punches.
But that's from Mortal Kombat.
For me, it is, I think, Soviet Kremlin guard
with the furry hat on the motorbike
with the rocket launcher or whatever.
I guess that's it.
And them driving down their car down into the Moscow subway system,
which looks terrible.
It's a good bit, though.
It's a good bit, isn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think this is a good bit.
This is one of the least memorable ones.
Absolutely.
I mean, also because I didn't remember whether I'd seen it or not,
but just even looking back now, I'm like,
but what's good?
The mother-daughter relationship's all right.
There's something there.
And is that going to be carried off over into the next movie?
I don't know.
I doubt it.
The kid's just going to be gone, right?
Yeah.
Eaton or whatever.
Yeah.
Or written off in a novelization as characters often are.
I'm going to do a whole segment next week on the characters that just disappeared from
these movies.
And what apparently happened to them, all right?
Terrific. I guess it's the backwards bit at the start.
That's the memorable bit, right?
Oh, from that...
From Dead Island, yeah.
From Dead Island, yeah. All right.
Well, you know what's time for?
What's it time for?
It's trivia time.
Resident Evil 5. Don't mind if I do.
Trivia section.
Wow.
This movie's called Resident Evil Retribution.
Who's doing the retribution?
Who's getting the retribution?
Who's doing the retribution?
Who's getting retributed against?
Are we being retributed as the audience?
I think so for liking one of the previous one.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
We didn't do nothing.
We didn't do nothing but support this franchise.
I'm telling you that.
And we're getting retributed on?
This is some nonsense, if you ask me.
But also, like, as we've talked about every week,
this could be the name of any of these movies, really.
Yeah.
Anyways, Kevin Durand is in this.
I know we mentioned it,
but I just want to mention he does kill James the One Shade,
which is a hell of a maneuver.
Because they've got a classic rivalry, don't they?
Yeah.
You know?
They've been setting this up since the first.
first movie that he's going to be killed by Barry Burton, that James One
Shea is going to be killed by Barry Burton. And it's so satisfying. It is. Because
they've had this rivalry and Barry Burton's always been like, I'm going to get you James
One Shea. Yeah. Isn't it bizarre that like these don't really build to anything?
They don't build to anything. Like there's no, what's the backstory that we're like clinging on to?
And it's not like Michelle Rodriguez got betrayed in the first movie and now she's back for revenge
or whatever.
But then there's also another version of her
that's quite nice and you're like,
oh, what could it have been
if she wasn't betrayed by Alice in the first one?
None of that's there at all.
She gets thrown to the ground and she dies.
One's just there and she's like,
I don't know who you are
and I'm going to fire this gun
because that's my job.
Bangety bang.
Bang, bang.
I'm Colin Salman.
I'm here as well.
He's there as well.
Oh no.
While filming a fight scene with Milo Jovich,
a misapp occurred causing 16 actors
to fall off a scaffolding that was sent to hospital.
How does that even happen?
What kind of fucking domino-ass scenario are we setting up here?
Right?
That was the scene where Alice and one of her clones
are trying to get a big pane of glass across the road in Moscow
and a series of...
And then a Rube Goldberg machine goes off.
You better believe it.
So they went to hospital and it was shut down for a few days.
And Milojovich actually visited some of the actors.
It says some and not all of the actors of the doctors at the hospital.
I don't know.
I prefer actors who haven't been injured.
That's exactly right, yeah.
Yeah.
It's weird as well because they were all packed into the one bed.
She got halfway across
She's like, no, I'm tired of this
Yeah, bad
I'm tired of giving a little kiss on the forehead
To all my favorites
Yeah, when am I going to climb across this bed?
I've kissed Colin Salman on the forehead
Oh, he was involved.
I kissed Michelle Rodriguez from the forehead.
She was involved too.
Yeah, now I'm leaving.
This is the first dogless
Resident Evil movie.
No dogs!
It's dogless!
Wow.
Yeah, what do you think of that?
They should have given
Suburban mom,
Alice, one of those
molasses covered dogs
just as a pet dog
and they don't reference it
But it's just a very nice molasses.
He's like, I love you, molasses dog.
Yeah.
My man, dogless.
There was consideration that we're going to dub the Leon S. Kennedy character as played by Johann Ewer,
because he's an Estonian actor and he moved to the, slash model, and he moved to the US when he was like 17.
Okay.
And they didn't end up doing that, but one of the actors that auditioned was Matt Mercer,
who had voiced Leon S. Kennedy in various media.
There it is.
And they even used his voice as reference to be like, can you do this?
Right.
But he didn't get chosen.
even though he is often but not always Leon S. Kennedy.
So they dubbed Ada Wong, but they didn't dub her on and off again boyfriend, fake boyfriend.
Yeah.
They've just met Leon Kennedy.
Correct.
That's crazy.
I agree.
Should it done that? Should have been funny?
You know what have been funny?
Mm-hmm.
You give him a romance, but only in the subtitles.
Yeah.
You know?
All right.
I can't wait to see my boyfriend Leon Kennedy, she can say, you know?
But don't touch me.
Don't touch me.
The fake name of Alice's husband, played by Odette Fair.
Mr. Alice's husband.
It's not revealed in the film, but in the novelisation.
Novelization.
His name's Todd.
Todd.
Todd.
Yeah. Todd Fair.
Todd Fair.
What's the character's name in...
Carlos.
Todd Carlos.
It's not bad.
It's better than Carlos Todd.
Agreed.
Yeah.
A little backwards-ass name.
Yuck.
Yuck.
Anyway, he's box office on a budget of $65 million.
A little bit of a lower return for this one, 240.
Point two million, but again, 3D and whatever it was that era.
Still enough to make a sequel, isn't it?
You better believe it is, Mason.
was because what are we looking at next week?
Here's a hint. It's resonable
the final chapter. Yeah. At least we know
what that one is.
I don't, I mean, we know it's the final chapter, but I don't
know what it is, is.
I imagine some characters will come back and some
of the very prominent characters in this
were like, I'm never leaving your side, Alice.
They'll be gone, inexplicably.
That's what I love about these movies.
God, we're so close to the end.
Or we are at the end.
See you next week for something else.
Maybe.
Yeah.
Well, speaking of, if you do want to see that, you can
early at patreon.com slash Mr. Sundaymovies,
big sandwich.co, or sign up to be a YouTube member.
There's also bonus videos and all sorts of stuff, isn't there, Mason?
Heck yeah.
We talk a big game here, and let me tell you, we deliver every time.
That's right.
We walk to walk and we talk the talk.
Agreed.
We also have a podcast.
It's called The Weekly Planet. Check it out.
That's on its own YouTube channel and whatever and etc.
And even go about your day.
We zombie talk the talk and we zombie walk the walk.
That's right.
Brains, etc.
Shuffling, etc.
So shuffling and so...
Riding a Soviet motorbike, etc.
Hell yeah.
This wasn't a good one.
Nope.
What's the strike rate at this point?
We're five in.
One.
It's one.
It's the third one that Paul W. Sanderson didn't do.
But he made a Van Horizon.
But I just want to be clear, I will not be gotten.
I am doing this and I'm okay.
Okay.
All right?
One left.
It's like 90 minutes.
I'm going to be five.
They are brisk.
But they seem to be getting longer.
Even though they're all almost exactly 90 minutes long,
this one seemed way long.
Yeah, that's what's good about it.
All right, thanks everyone.
Grab that jam, you guys.
We'll see you next week.
Oh, and thank you to Ben for the edit.
Thank you, Ben.
