The heart one is actually true. It's a muscle and the biggest one in your body. Should Chris have taken that many steroid injections his heart would have gotten too massive for his own body and thus would have killed him. I'm not sure exactly but I think it would stop beating from lack of room. No it isn't true. I am a nurse and know. Gluteus maximus is the largest muscle in the body, which is your booty. The muscle with the most surface area is latissimus dorsi, the broad muscle that covers the middle portion of the back. The smallest muscle is the stapedius. It helps to move the bones in middle ear that form the delicate hearing apparatus, and helps protect our sensitive inner ear. The longest muscle in the body is the sartorius. It is the strap-like, narrow muscle which runs from the hip to the knee.

Though in some ways this movie was okay most of it was just awful. For starters there's the Cerberus part where she just happened to beat them all with one clip which is a load of bull. Then there's the Zombies. They acted they way they were supposed to but the way they looked sucked too. I would've expected some limbs to be missing and even a torn into chest or two. Then there's the Licker where I don't know what happened with it. In everything I played and read up on Resident Evil I've never heard about the Lickers mutating when they eat fresh DNA. If that were a fact in the series then all Lickers who managed to kill anybody would've mutated. They did not in both the games and the second movie Apocolaypse.
I don't think there's anything (I'm sure the Hive Base was mentioned somewhere before) and the final fact my opinion is that this movie was the worst of them. Even though I know now that they had to keep away from the game plot a bit they did it way too much and screwed it up. There's also the matter with them keeping their Bio Weapons a secret from some of their Workers. I'm pretty sure they all knew about the T-Virus in the games. As I pointed out in the other thread you made about RE Extinction, the movies would have been horrible had the followed the games story line. They tried to do it, and couldn't make it work. And as stated there, the events in the movies weren't supposed to replace events in the game, they were to run along side them like a side story. Did you even play the first game? The Hive was pretty accurate in almost all aspects except it's size, reaching it by train and the Red Queen. The laboratory in the first game was also underground. You reached it by putting the medallions in the fountain and riding the elevator down. And seeing your description of the zombies makes me wonder if you've watched the movie. One zombie had half of his head missing. The look of the zombies most definitely wasn't an issue. They did a very good job with that. And as for the Licker, here is a link to a Wiki that states a few times about their mutating. Lickers

Still nothing too good but it was the best movie out of them. The Tyrant in paticular was the best Viral Creature yet. Nemesis didn't even go into second form in Apocolaypse and Alice kicked the crap out of it pretty easily. This one though actually gave her a run for her money and was intelligent. The intelligent part though was a screw up. No matter how hard Umbrella tried they could not get their Tyrant projects that much intelligence which is one part on why it was screwy.
Another part is the Crows. Sure they do stay in a pack but it's four or five at the most and not gigantic like that. Last part of it that made it screwy was the entire Earth falling prey to the T-Virus. That's a bunch of bull and what really irritates me is the fact that the G-Virus still wasn't mentioned even though it should have been in Raccoon City.
I garuntee you that they don't plan to mention it in the other movie either. Genesis I believe it was called. Another one bound to be bad cause it strays way too far from Resident Evil. I actually liked the movies quite a bit. The movies would have been horrible if they'd stuck strictly to the way the game played out. They proved this when they got George Romero to do the script for the first movie. It sucked. And if the "Godfather" of the zombie can't make a decent zombie movie out of the material, no one could. Romero after all did create the zombies that we all know and love. The movie's storyline was never meant to replace the storyline of the games. They were to be considered events that happened but weren't mentioned in the game. Can you imagine the bore fest that strictly following the games story line would have created... I shudder thinking of having to sit through something like that. You could look at Nemesis not changing form as he hadn't gotten that far into the transformation yet. Plus you have to remember, Matt was Nemesis in the movie, and he still had some minimal control, it is why Alice was able to defeat him so easily. Matt and Alice obviously had formed a close bond due to the situation they had both went through. Matt attempted to gain control from the beginning. As to your comment about the crows, you aren't taking into account that they were infected with the Tvirus, they wouldn't act like your normal crows. And the whole world falling prey to the virus is most likely pretty much how it would happen. It would spread quickly since it infects all living things. The chain reaction once set in motion would spiral out of control rather quickly. You should try to read the novelizations of the movies, they will fill in some of those areas you felt were lacking, like Nemesis. There were quite a few passages that illustrated Matt's struggle to gain control.

I think its great Tvirus, as usual. You sketch nicely. I wish I had that talent.

Wouldn't most women... I mean with Alfred you would always be in competition for your clothes and make-up. There ain't no woman out there who wants to spend a day with a man who thinks he's "pertyer" than she is... Ha! He couldn't even fit into my clothes! Though the upside to spending time with Alfred is you get to stab him in the face. Well while stabbing him in the face would make it more palatable, I'm not sure even that merry making event would be enough to make it worthwhile... I mean come on, the guy has a laugh that would drive you up the wall... It's like nails on a chalkboard...

When you're one color/ethnic group and do something any of the others disapprove of, you're racist. Anymore, racism (as well as African American slavery, for that matter, which I wouldn't be surprised if somebody tries to fit that in there somewhere) is merely a parody, used as a tool to gain an agenda. Look at this @$$-wad N'Gai Croal (if I was named "N'Gai Croal", I'd have hung myself the moment I learned to tie a knot...): Just because he didn't like RE5, he cried racism and it got his name and face plastered all over TV and Internet. Now he's getting paid bank to go all over the place and insult anyone who disagrees with him about RE5 in his stupid little interviews. Just because a person doesn't believe RE5 is racist, it doesn't mean they can't understand racism. You know, for as long as I can remember, Caucasians by the hundreds were enslaved in North Africa and sold as laborers and concubines all over the world from North Africa to the Middle East. For example, Aimee du Buc de Rivery, a cousin of Empress Josephine de Beauharnais of France, was captured by North African pirates in 1784 and sold into the Sultan's harem in Istanbul, after which she was never heard from again. I'll bet N'Gai Croal doesn't have a problem with that. Like I said previously, I think he is the racist one. Oh they have thrown slavery in. At the Gamefaqs message board for the game. That site is among the worst when it comes to the threads about racism in RE5. But I guess that is to be expected, most of the people who actually do post there are trolls and flamers. It's why I won't post there.

I just want to inform you guys that we live in a Mobile Home (My parents actually. I'm here too though) and we have a Tornado warning and the weather has gotten dark near us................And if a funnell cloud appears above us.....well.....................we're as good as dead. I prayed, I begged, to God to keep us safe and I pray that works.
If it happens........................................I want to let you all know you've been good friends and I respect each and every one of you.
Hopefully this won't be my last post with you all.............I love you all very much and I pray for the best.
-S.T.A.R.S. 2- I lived in a mobile home for a while and bad weather was the main thing that spurred me to find a home to buy. In bad weather like storms, they can be a death trap. But what would you be doing at your parents anyways? I thought you were in the military. Usually they don't allow such new recruits to live off base. At least they used to not allow it.

You are correct, dirty fighting doesn't always win the day, but most generally it does.... Chris wouldn't stoop to dirty fighting as I said in another topic. It would be too far out of character for him to do so. Well if Wesker really wants to get down and dirty he can always kick Chris in the nether reigen, I'm sure that'll get him the fight. And don't forget that Chris also has steroids on top of the mutant abililties. Haha XP With all the steroids Chris has had to have taken to get as lumpy and bumpy as he has most likely doesn't have much of a nether region to hurt... They prolly shrunk up due to the steroids....

That could be. But even Sheva isn't immune from the racist remarks. I don't know how many times I've seen in the "Race War" people complaining about just that, she was added to pacify people, and then they follow up with and she isn't black enough. The people saying that are also the ones claiming Resident Evil has never had any minority characters, which we all know is not true. Oh I know that. Their are quite a few of the characters throughout the series that are of different races. I think that almost every race has been depicted at one time or another in the games....

I just hate that it seems they added Sheva because people were calling the game racist. I mean, in the first trailer, Chris against like 50+ people seemed like a good idea. But then Sheva came along (don't get me wrong, I was excited for Co-Op) and it seemed like it wouldn't have the same charm. Heck, if you even look at some cutscenes, Sheva isn't even there. That could be. But even Sheva isn't immune from the racist remarks. I don't know how many times I've seen in the "Race War" people complaining about just that, she was added to pacify people, and then they follow up with and she isn't black enough.

Sounds like there's going to be human blood shed in the next chapter. No, I don't think Ashe would go that far when dealing with hackers and spammers... That would depend on my mood at the time....

This is slightly OT, but we really need an actual "lol" emoticon... Yes we do, but it seems every single time I add new smileys we get hacked...

You're welcome. You're right doing it my way would require you to be a bit more on the ball with with what you wrote. I'd most likely be like you and screw up and contradict myself.... :lol:

Yes it is, and it is against the TOS for almost every single forum software you can find. In fact I'm not aware of any of those that offer free hosting that it isn't against the TOS. I believe that most likely almost all porn sites are done with paid hosting which probably would allow you to do that kind of stuff. I think it should be illegal all around, there is no good reason for porn to be that readily available... Kids can easily access the stuff... Then Pablo's new board might not be up for very long... Pablo has porn on his site? I haven't been there for some time so I wouldn't know. But if that is the case, then he should be shut down. His site is based on Resident Evil, which is a game meaning that kids are likely to find the site and go on it. I really hope that isn't the case, as I liked Pablo and I would lose pretty much all respect I had for him if that is the case. I've got no use what so ever for people who do that and allow that to happen. Also I would be forced to remove his button from here and Raccoon City because I won't be a party to sending people to a gaming site that has porn... It goes against everything I stand for.

When I saw the DVD being annouced on TV, I thought of you, thinking of how you would probably be eager to grab it. XD They've been advertising it more now, and every time I see it I get all happy... I am all a twitter with excitement over it, I shall be at the video store when they open the doors Tuesday that is for sure!!!! But this sounds like it could work. I didn't really like Jason X that much, but it was okay. You could place it before Jason X, that way in 2010 you would already know about the tech and stuff. I didn't care for it as much as I did all the others, it ranks right up there with Jason Goes to Hell, but not that bad... Plus they pretty much made him indestructible with leaving the nano ants in him. They constantly repair any and all damage. And an indestructible villain usually doesn't make for good story.... I was leaning towards the pre-Jason X time line for that reason, and also the space age technology.... I'm not sure I could really do it justice as I've never really been into that kind of thing, so my knowledge is very limited. I just haven't come up with a plot for that time line yet. Though I suppose I could use the same type of thing. Jason would (or at least should be) well known by that time, he had after all been killing kiddies at Crystal Lake since 1979. His kill count is in the triple digits by this time. So I suppose someone could open up a camp at the lake trying to cash in on Jason also....
