3D is the only fact I hate about the new Resident Evil movie. I love the films and Milla. 3D might destroy it. So making sure I don't go see it in 3D, then again it might now be crappy without it. Stupid.

it's the only reason I would go and see it and one of the reasons I am going plus its my birthday :D

Screen Gems has provided Black Voices with the first look at Boris Kodjoe as Luther West, the leader of the survivors in LA, in Resident Evil: Afterlife 3D the fourth film of the Resident Evil franchise.

  • 3 weeks later...

Besides the footage, a panel with Milla Jovovich, Ali Larter, Wentworth Miller and director Paul WS Anderson is enough to get fanboys at the ?Con excited.

PANEL

The panel has begun for the fourth installment of Resident Evil and the direct and three stars have been introduced.

We begin with the premiere of the trailer in 3D and it is very similar to the previous trailer. Fans of the most recent RE game, will be happy to know that Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts) looks and fights in the same was he he does in the game.

* Milla describes Alice as being more human and more determined at taking down Umbrella.

* Ali Larter is ecstatic about the film being in 3D and Paul W.S. Anderson being back in the director?s chair.

* Wentworth comes in as the new guy on the block, joining the franchise. He explains taking on the role was a little daunting at first joining such a popular franchise.

* Milla jumps in and explains how she can?t wait for us to see the crazy stuff the did for the film.

* For shooting in 3D, it changed everything for how Anderson approached shooting the film. From how they move the camera, how they design the sets and to how they edit in post, he explains how 3D will become the new benchmark and how it?s revolutionized the industry.

FOOTAGE

After some questions for the cast from the moderator, we move into our first piece of new footage. It features the full action sequence where they fight the The Executioner, a very recognizable (and very large) character from the video game Resident Evil 5.

* It wasn?t very impresive. It looked too fake and felt very staged.

* Most of it was in slow-motion, but it was too slow for an already slow action sequence.

AUDIENCE Q&A

* The first question resulted in a funny story: Milla pointed the gun right at the lens and when she shot the weapon, she blew the screen to pieces. She blames Paul for telling her to keep aiming the gun closer to the camera.

* What made Anderson want to come back to do Resident Evil 4? He wanted to make a conceptual jump, something bigger and better. He says the 3D is part of that and he wanted a larger bigger budget. They shot in Tokyo, Alaska, Long Beach, Canada and Hollywood. He felt he was the filmmaker best suited to bring that to the screen.

* What made Anderson take so many elements from the Resident Evil 5 video game? He played the game and loved it (as did I when I wrote that RE4 should take from this game back when they announced it). He wanted to take some of the enemies and wanted to make sure to utilized Wesker, a fan-favorite character. Also of course, they wanted to add Chris Redfield and include a lot of the stylized action sequences from the game.

* Will Jill Valentine be in the film? Stay tuned.

* Will they make a fifth film? After this, they?ll take it from there and see.

* A dressed up Trekkie with a neck brace and broken arm. He got Milla to say her famous ?Multi-pass? line from The Fifth Element. (crowd laughter).

* Wentworth Miller never played the game but was asked about his research and what elements he wanted to take to honor and incorporate into the character. He read a lot of blogs and fansites to learn about the character and what people say about him. He also read about his backstory and of course, wanted to bring something from himself and also, make the character work for the film universe developed by Paul W.S. Anderson. He?s greatful to work with Ali Larter to work on the relationship between their sibling characters because that brings out an important (and softer) side of Chris.

* So far, it?s been Milla showing the most enthusiasm and really keeping the panel as fun as possible for the crowd. She?s very confident and knowledgeable about the characters, history, weapons, etc.

And that?s it for the panel. No additional new scenes to show us and not much excitement.

Resident Evil: Afterlife also stars Sienna Guillory & Shawn Roberts who were not present at the panel.

    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
    • Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
