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

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.

    • Microsoft finally admits its default Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 action broke key legacy component

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft finally admits its default Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 action broke key legacy component by Sayan Sen Microsoft last week released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. So far the company has acknowledged two known issues that have popped up after the release which include bugged-out Office apps as well as the Recycle Bin; though there could be more at play too. Speaking of bugs and issues, Microsoft seems to have finally acknowledged a problem that probably has been around for close to a year. That's because back in July of 2025 the company made a default change to the latest Windows 11 versions, wherein it switched to JScript9Legacy on Windows 11 24H2 and later releases. Hence following the release of version 25H2 in October 2025, JScript9Legacy also remained default-enabled. As a result there has been a compatibility issue ever since then. For those wondering, by switching to JScript9Legacy Microsoft intended to improve the security of modern Windows PCs by reducing vulnerabilities tied to legacy scripting like cross-site scripting (XSS), among others. XSS exploits can allow cyber-attackers to attach malicious code onto legitimate websites and use them to execute the code when a potential victim loads such a website. Hence the new JScript9Legacy engine enforced stricter execution policies and improved object handling, which should help mitigate such attacks. Microsoft today has published a new support article detailing the problem. Neowin spotted it while browsing. The company says that JScript global definitions and execution context may fail to persist across scripts, potentially breaking older dependent apps and web-based components that relied on this legacy behavior. In the article Microsoft has confirmed that the issue stems from its move away from the older jscript9.dll engine in favor of jscript9legacy.dll. As mentioned above, while the newer engine was designed to address vulnerabilities and strengthen security it also changes how JScript handles execution context. As a result functions and definitions loaded by one script could no longer remain available to subsequent scripts once execution ended. The company notes that some applications worked correctly on earlier Windows versions because the older JScript engine automatically retained global definitions and execution state between scripts. Under the newer model though that behavior is disabled by default causing certain legacy workloads and polyfill-dependent scripts to fail. Microsoft says it addressed the problem via the KB5077241 update though the fix had not been enabled automatically in the following updates. As such admins must explicitly turn on persistent JScript execution context using a Registry setting that the tech giant shared today. The configuration can be applied to individual processes or system-wide through the FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE registry key. The steps have been outlined below: Run the following command to create the feature control registry key: reg add "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE" Under this key, create a new DWORD (32-bit) value. Configure the value as follows: To enable persistence for specific processes only: Set the value to 1 for each target process name. To enable persistence for all processes: Add * as the key name and set its value to 1. You can find the official support article here on Microsoft's website.

If you don’t have it, VidCoder will prompt you to download and install it. The Portable version is self-contained and does not require any .NET Runtime to be installed. You do not need to install HandBrake for VidCoder to work. Feature list: Multi-threaded MP4, MKV containers Completely integrated encoding pipeline: everything is in one process and no huge intermediate temporary files H.264, H.265, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, VP8, Theora video Hardware-accelerated encoding with AMD VCE, Nvidia NVENC and Intel QuickSync AAC, MP3, Vorbis, AC3, FLAC audio encoding and AAC/AC3/MP3/DTS/DTS-HD passthrough Target bitrate, size or quality for video 2-pass encoding Decomb, detelecine, deinterlace, rotate, reflect, chroma smooth, colorspace filters Powerful batch encoding with simultaneous encodes Customizable Pickers to automatically pick audio and subtitle tracks, destination, titles and more Instant source previews Creates small encoded preview clips Pause, resume encoding VidCoder 12.20 changes: Updated HandBrake core to 1.11.2.
