Anyone reading this blog for more than a short while will know of my absolute hatred of these films. So my only question is....If you have no script, no cast, no budget, no idea or story then why have you pencilled in a release date for a film that has not even begun at the most basic level? MONEY. The only reason these films are still made.
The fifth Resident Evil film was greenlit as soon as the last one hit budget. Honestly, these films slice of a very modest profit but the producers have realised that it is a very safe small profit so they will continue to produce them, same as the final destinations and so on. Franchises work, there is no doubt about that.
In fact, this below is the only real reason people still go to see them.
