    Ponibooru Film Night


    Copy Paste:


      Poster artist DaisyHead here. This week, our movie will be a Resident Evil fanfiction.  Cause god forbid anyone actually thought this series was more than an OP mary-sue thrown into a hodge-podge of Resident Evil references. We will be watching the first in the series, and how this made up character who has nothing to do with the video games is actually the only one capable of stopping the Umbrella Corp. and their plan for immortality... I think. i have no freaking idea what this movie is trying to say. Really, they have some characters from the games in it, but then when alice is introduced, they become completely helpless D.I.Ds and only alice is capable of putting up a fight. She fights nemesis in the second movie hand-to-hand. In the game you weren't even safe when you went to the next area because he kool-aid man'd through the walls and caved your skull in.

    Hosts for film night will be:
    DaisyHead
    Harlequin Jester
    Roboshi
    Feral Socks
    Psychopomf
    Dr. Outback


    TIMES WILL BE 3/29 FRI 4PM PST7PM EST  3/30 SAT MIDNIGHT GMT
