Removed reference to the antivirus being widely known, since nobody knows much about the virus in the movie anyway (outside the umbrella staff and not even all of them know about it), only Alice identifies the antivirus when Angie gives her the lunchbox.

[edit] Goof

When the black van carrying the little girl is hit in the beginning, as the car twirls, you can CLEARLY see the CN Tower in the background for one frame. Unless Raccon city has its very own CN Tower, this is a goof.

Here's a link to a screenshot: http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f181/VodkaLemon88/resevigoof.jpg

Is this really a goof? It's not like Racoon City is -real-. It's not like we saw the Sears Tower in Florida or the Eiffel Tower in Mexico. I say, let it go. Lots42 10:35, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
As I stated, Racoon city may very possibly have its own CN Tower. It is a fictional city after all, right? BUT, you NEVER see a tower when Racoon city was shown either from an aerial view OR on a computer schematic of the city (which was shown various times throughout the film).

[edit] Changed DVD Cover

The previous one was a boxset of the first two films, I uploaded the RE:A region two cover. (Cipher Destiny 20:47, 26 April 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Plot

It is very unclear where the description of the first movie ends (starting with words "At the end of the first movie..." and description of Apocalypse part begins. Not having seen the first part, I cannot correct this.

[edit] Minor fix

Where did people get the age-recommendation board for these movies? Both list both Resident Evil films as getting a K-18 (equal to the American M or AO rating) in Finland, when both only recieved a K-15. I've fixed it, but could the person who put it there explain where he got it from and if he bothered to check the validity of the source? One mistake is bad enough, two is just weird.

[edit] Trilogy

Although this page contained references to a fourth film the third films page on wikipedia states that it will be the last (and has links to references) so I have removed references to a fourth film. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.243.220.21 (talk) 01:45, 24 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Changes

I've made some changes in the article, primarily switching stuff around so it makes more sense. -TheHande 16:54, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia

  • Major Cain was attacked by the zombie of Dr. Ashford, yet he had killed Dr. Ashford before hand with a shot to the stomach

What is the relevance of this? Didn't he have a minor version of the T-Virus, like his daughter, for his legs? I'm going to remove it unless there is a reason to keep it, or if I missed something important. ChozoBoy 21:55, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

It doesn't seem too important. I don't remember it from the movie but it's no surprise, considering wounded people turn into zombies in the game after dying Lots42 22:31, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Resurrection Edition - reference needed?

Info on this new release was just recently added.. You can find it on Amazon, but I am not sure about linking to Amazon's page as a reference (probably not a good idea!) Does it even NEED a reference or what? Please feel free to remove my citation needed tag if not.. I am (relatively) new so not sure what the policy is. -BloodDoll 20:45, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sonic?

Sonic Adventure? Really? I mean come on. And the Game Connections section should be deleted. Sure, we all know the scenes resemble each other but unless it's stated by the producers...Lots42 22:13, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
