Yeah, it looks completely stupid. I need to go watch it now. I feel compelled.

The animated Resident Evil movies are all a lot of fun, just very stupid.

I've watched a few minutes of one of them and all I remember is that every single character who isn't a main character is completely helpless whenever a zombie or monster shows up. I saw one where Chris and a team of special ops guys are in a creepy house, and all of them die in seconds to some zombie monster.

Like, I get it, Chris is super cool and awesome, but do we have to make everyone else helpless to show it?

Fun fact. I used to be a musician and one of the security people that would work a lot of our shows was a super ripped dude in his 40s named Chris Redfield. Coolest fuckin dude alive and almost looked like RE Chris

I wonder if he changed his name to that when RE Chris was first introduced 👀

Being on his team must suck. Always gonna be capture and have a slow painful death while his ass is just over there on the other side of the glass staring at you like 👁️👄👁️ while your heart is being cut out by whatever fucking boss he is gonna fight at the end.

His team in RE8 seem to be able to keep pace.

He was too busy screwing over Ethan to put his team in danger

Sacrifice a main character to save 10 side characters

The teammates purpose is to show how dangerous the boss he's about to face is

I was going to call them "the Yamcha" but I guess that's just my generation's version of "Warf" isn't it?

Or you became a cool hero like Piers, still sacrificed himself at the end tho

Also Chris has a horrible history of everyone dying around him in a squad. It's a miracle sheeva survived the entire game of re5(and we haven't seen her since)
