At least we can say the CGI looks pretty scrumtrilescent: equal parts Advent Children and ... well, zombies. Bon appétit!

Would the word smexy be an appropriate adjective to describe the graphics in this?
Visually, it looks absolutely wonderful. Other than, I'm sure it won't be a blockbluster or anything. Not that there's much to tell from this trailer, but I'm just going to say it will be worthy of a 'meh, I'll rent it'

Looks interesting.. but I'd like to see a Resident Evil in the big ass mansion from the first game. Can't say I'm very hyped for this... Ah well, sure lots of people will dig it.

Hm... They only showed one human face, and it had as much emotion in it as a zombie. That lowers my expectations.

The Live Action films have the distinction of being so awful, they become good.

Yeah, they're not good movies by any means, but I've found them entertaining enough to be worth watching. I wouldn't pay to see them in theaters, but I've watched them on TV and it's entertaining in the "mindless special effects and violence" aspect. As long as you find that type of thing entertaining and don't expect anything remotely deep, they can be enjoyed.
Anyways, the CG looks fantastic in this trailer. Character faces seem to be distinctly Japanese in design and avoid the uncanny valley in doing so. At the same time, the seen with the cop being attacked by the zombie looked almost real. Very cool, I can't wait until we see stuff like this in realtime in future console generations.

Is anyone else sick of ADD video editing? God forbid that people interested in a CG movie would actually want to see how the graphics looks, not just super quick clips. Hell, that trailer had as much black screen as it did footage.

If they didn't use quick cuts, they'd actually have to have some substance to the movie. And they sure as hell aren't going to have that.

Finally!!!!! A RE film that actually has it's main characters and doesn't include some retarded super human zombie killer hero! It's sad but true, cg won over real life filming and it's only been the trailer.

Did you really compare this to Advent Children? Advent Children's graphics are leaps and bounds ahead of this trailer.
This looks like a video game trailer. Aside from some of Leon's movements.

You just said it, it's a trailer. It's not a complete film and it is obviously still in the works. There will be room for improvement, tweaks and such. It's not finished and I can assure you, just as some stated; the ADD editing of this trailers makes it generally hard to see much of anything.

Would be nice if they could get the same guy who voiced Leon in RE4 to do this movie.

No problem, happy to tip you guys off to this so it can reach my gaming brethren.
This looks pretty damn good so far too. I'm not even much of a RE fan and I can say I'm excited for this.

It's my belief that all video game adaptations should be done using CGI. I think one of the reasons that Advent Children succeeded is that it was true to the games by using the same characters and not finding people who may resemble them (admittedly that would be pretty horrendous taking the hair into account) but you get my point. I'll give this movie a try.

I'm honestly surprised only one other person has mentioned that Claire was also in that trailer. But hey, 7 years after Raccoon City. That would place it just after Resident Evil 4, wouldn't ya think?
