Resident Evil: The Final Chapter : Fast editing due to video game nerds out there

One of the very reasons why Paul chose the extremely fast editing to The Final Chapter, video games. Look at Call of Duty how FAST-PACED the aiming and the shooting are. People run around on the maps like their freakin Flash and the reflexes people have when it comes to video games is nothing short of amazing.

I think Paul realized how fast-paced our minds and visuals move today and i think he just tried to apply that to his film so it would satisfy those bored gaming minds at the theater. I can CLEARLY see why he chose this editing style and for this day and age it really does fit.

Nah. It's because of the slow motion complaints from the past two films so he wanted to change his direction to be raw, dirty and real. He kinda said "ha ha" in our faces. But too bad, cause the film bombed. He'll regret it eventually and maybe re-do the whole film and give us a proper edit (not that it bothers me personally.)

Please notify me when Anderson's cock is out of your mouth..

Lmao

I don't get why it's getting hate. Greengrass does it in the Bourne films and it's revelatory.

But Greengrass is good at it, and he knows how to shoot a movie so that you can still follow what's going on when things start getting particularly crazy. There's a lot more wrong with Anderson's filmmaking than just the editing, so when you combine bad elements with other bad elements, it just makes a bigger mess.

Man-Child of the Twenty-First Century.

I disagree. Lol. In Supremacy in particular I had no idea what was going on in the fights. I struggled with this resi film also.

But still no one complaints about the bourne films editing,only the final chapter,strange isn't IT?

Did you even read these? The guy a couple of comments up literally just said about the same thing.

Child of the Eighties.
Man of the Nineties.
Man-Child of the Twenty-First Century.

He worked with editor Doobie White in a commercial(s?) in 2011 and liked his work. That's all there is to it.

There's only one reason for fast editing a film, and that's that the shots are crap and you don't want to leave a single frame on screen longer than you have to. I think they used the editing to hide this film's lower budget. That said, I actually like this movie fine, I think the editing suits the genre.

I highly doubt that.

You dick

I think it was simply a style choice to make the action look fast paced, frantic and instill a sense of urgency, but it's a massive misfire.

Fast cuts can work well - look at Mad Max - but this film tried to ramp it up and ended up being pretty much incomprehensible.

Nothing more, nothing less. Talks of lower budgets and bad choreography are nonsense, really. None of the other films suffer this issue at all and most of them apart from Afterlife and Retribution are made on similar budgets.
