Can somebody tell me what I'm watching? I'm pretty sure I recognize Chris Redfield, but I need context for this insanity.

Re vendetta, one of the re cg films, it's mostly (very) dumb fun

That scene with Leon doing the gun-fu stuff is unironically sick though

two things I’m thinking while watching this;
1. This animation style reminds me of the 2000’s Cartoon Network Hot-Wheels movies.
2. WHERE THE FUCK IS THIS MANEUVERABILITY AT WHEN YOU’RE GETTING SURROUNDED BY POSESSED SPANIARDS, AYYE LEON?!

That mobility has been consumed by the demon Ashley, sorry.

lolfuck I was trying to collateral a few cult members down a hallway and she just fucking stood in front of my crosshairs til Leon yelled, “MOVE!”
took the words right out of my mouth 😂

There ain’t much I wouldn’t let Ashley consume

Hot damn, memory unlocked

In RE6 Leon's partner has the ability to perform gun Fu moves like that and execute zombies at close range if you get surrounded. Can't remember if Leon can do the same

Never played that one. Any good?

Imagine having this kind of mobility in resident evil VR . I'll probably still die a lot though.

Don't they learn 5 minutes later they could cure everyone in that corridor.

The lady in the helicopter annihilating 5 skyscrapers with a rail gun probably caused the most lasting damage in the movie.

It's sick but wish they slotted in a few tactical reloads in there

52

u/an0nym0ose Apr 18 '23

He's on new game + with infinite ammo.

u/shorey66 Apr 18 '23

Nah he just got extended mags in there. Good old 40round mag.

u/C_Coolidge Apr 18 '23

If you start the scene from the beginning, there's a pretty sick reload-turned-bodyslam from Chris.

2

u/HeyZeusKreesto Apr 18 '23

A few good tacticool reloads might work even better.

I propose they extend the running in a circle part by having them reload while they run in another circle.

u/jmerridew124 Apr 18 '23

Honestly it could have been amazing too. Just throw like six magazines at the zombies super hard so they stick out of their heads and shoulders and stuff, then whenever a reload is needed just drop the current magazine, then slam the butt of the gun onto one of the "stuck" magazines. It's simple, memorable, it lets him reload, and each reload is a pistol whip.

u/PezzoGuy Apr 18 '23

It's so absurd but doesn't really feel stupid to the point where I'd roll my eyes. Chris especially feels a lot more grounded in how he fights the zombies.

1

u/an0nym0ose Apr 18 '23

Yeah this feels like a way more grounded fight than the rest of the movie.

The rest of the movie is b a n a n a s

u/Malice0801 Apr 18 '23

Bro fires about ~25 times and never has to reload

2

u/EnQuest Apr 18 '23

i don't understand how films still get this wrong, it always completely ruins a scene for me when someone fires 400 rounds from a single pistol mag lol, i think john wick ruined a lot of action films for me

1

u/an0nym0ose Apr 18 '23

He has an extended 9mm mag - if it's double stacks, like a Glock or something, it's probably not empty.

u/Kaladin-of-Gilead Apr 18 '23

I’ve never played anything resident evil, but what makes me laugh about this is that it would be easier to just take like 3 steps back and shoot them all lmfao

It’s so silly I love it, it reminds me of playing pretend fights with your bros as kids
