I'll agree about the acting. If you want a movie that is close to the book, you should check out Watchmen. One of my favorite movies of all time. |

| it was released for famicom. which is basically a japanese snes i think ( dont quote me on that!)
there was a rumour that was about saying that the name resident evil came from a note which was found in sweet home saying "house of residing evil" refering to the mansion sweet home was set in.
but... mikami basically trashed that rumour in saying that he didnt know why they called it resident evil and he wanted it to stay biohazard but capcom america apparently wanted Resident evil and they got there way. |

Yeah that is what I read too about a document saying 'residing evil' or something like that. _________________ -Vae Victus-Suffering To The Conquered-"The ultimate lifeform...Tyrant", Albert Wesker, REmakeConsumer Recreation Services  |

| It couldn't be called Biohazard here. There was already a band here that had that name copyrighted. _________________ Leon Fanboys Please Click Here Wesker is officially dead: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/100/1006931p1.html | NiteKrawler wrote: | | Jamesy wrote: | | Fine you win NightCrawler |

You really think a bunch of Americans could convince Shinji Mikami to change the name, simply because it sounded uncool? The Japanese are known for their pride, and as such, they will not tolerate anyone meddling with their creations. Especially not Americans. There were legal issues. Nothing more, nothing less. Here's proof:

Well, either way, it couldn't be named Biohazard in America because of the band of the same name. I'm still waiting for you to prove me wrong. _________________ Leon Fanboys Please Click Here Wesker is officially dead: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/100/1006931p1.html | NiteKrawler wrote: | | Jamesy wrote: | | Fine you win NightCrawler |
