Go see the second one. It’s worth it just to see her nipples when she’s in the cold water tank at the end. Mmm… ---

Just watched the first **Resident Evil** again, partially inspired by this thread (though it’s actually been sitting on my coffee table waiting to be watched for a couple of weeks). A thoroughly fun way to spend 90 minutes, and does a decent job of feeling somewhat like watching someone else playing a video game. ---

> [@AClockworkMelon](#): > > No. It’s different in the water tank. Go watch it. They’re standing at attention like little pencil erasers. Yes. 🙂 It’s really the only part I remember in the movie. I’ve seen them all, and two of them I saw in theaters. Worth watching if you ask me. ---

> [@Mahaloth](#): > > I’ve only played Resident Evil 4, but I assumed the movies were terribly lame. Not only were the movies terrible, but it doesn’t help that your experience with the RE franchise involves playing only the best game in the series, which is also one of my favorite games of all time. In short, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. Oh, and the CG in the first one is terrible. ---
