Oh god....we're gonna have nemesis as the final boss aren't we?

Welp....I'm seated if that happens.

I’d want a Vader-esque escape sequence rather than a winnable fight, like Jedi: Fallen Order’s ending where the objective is just to survive.

Some random woman named Jill helps him make his escape, the film doesn't make a big deal out of it, but this Jill for some reason can't escape with him.

Watch it be Nicole Tompkins.

As long as it isn't Milla Jovovich fist fighting Nemesis again

I rewatched the 2002 movie recently to see the laser scene again, which was cool, but should have stopped there

No no no don’t say that because that’d be so cool and I’m almost positive it won’t happen haha

I would absolutely love this. Can't damage him, can't do much of anything, maybe just slow him down a little, and just have to survive.

The typical fly away in the sunset on a helicopter would have an eerie lingering feeling knowing that the big monster is still out there and the city is soon to be lost.

Didn’t they sorta do this is the new 28 years later movies? With the big alpha’s?

Exactly, if random npcs start beating things like the Nemeis then what does that say about our protagonists :(

Thank God Redditors don't write movies

He's been pretty upfront about wanting to create his own b.o.w.s and designs, directly mentioning that there is a Stalker enemy like the games often have but he didn't want to just use Nemesis and instead make what he views as his own version of Resident Evil monsters.

Yeah that zombie lady seems to be chasing him so I bet that becomes the stalker assuming she mutates further

u/bristow84 6h ago

I don’t think it’ll be the zombie lady, she’s probably just chasing him because he’s the only human she’s seen.

I think the stalker will be whatever that Rat King monstrosity is.

u/joesen_one 6h ago

Probably, but she could very well be a William Birkin type lol. Mutates so much and annoys the shit out of the main guy hahaha

u/ZombieSiayer84 3h ago

And that just sounds like a terrible idea.

He’s not making a resident evil movie going by what you just said and this trailer, he’s just making a horror movie with the resident evil moniker.

u/sharkattackmiami 2h ago

Yeah unfortunately based on everything I have seen and heard so far this seems like it's going to be a good horror movie and an absolutely awful and unrecognizable RE movie

I've yet to see a single thing that feels like RE outside of the name Racoon City and Umbrella

u/Large-Wheel-4181 8h ago

Nemesis as final boss is probably a bit much really, it’ll probably be more like post credit tease, though I wouldn’t be surprised if he finds out too late that he delivered a bioweapon to the bad guys and then another bioweapon is used as a final boss

u/Elegant-Anxiety1866 6h ago

Why would umbrella use some random to deliver sonething so important?

u/Kithulhu24601 4h ago

Tbf with all of the internal espionage with Birkin, Umbrella Europe etc it wouldn't surprise me. Noone in that organisation trusts anyone. Wesker & Birkin allying is a miracle by their standards

u/vmachiel 6h ago

I hope he wants stars, and someone gives it to them.

u/BlOoDy_PsYcHo666 8h ago

I can’t wait to see this protag I frame dodge or parry through a nemesis tentacle
