#remake ideas

However, with the success of the RE4 remake, I can see the potential for 5 and 6. Definitely get rid of the point system, cuz I feel it dampened the experience.

I've played a small bit of RE5, but I have played most of RE6 and one of things I didn't like about 6 is the lack of document collecting. I know that its a weird complaint, but its what I like about games like this that if you wanna get the full picture of what the fuck is going on, you've gotta find these documents/letters/notes/whatever. I hated that you've gotta find those emblems and waste ammo for some lore.

Okay, sure there is potential with RE 5. What about RE 6, as it was designed for co-op and had four different perspectives/campaigns?

Easy. While there are four different perspectives, their stories are connected. So, have the campaigns come together in pairs, one pair being the main game and the other being a DLC.

And, by pairs, I mean:

One of the two campaigns takes up most of the story with a secondary story following the second campaign. My mind went to Revelations 1 and 2 with this idea. In 1, you mostly follow Jill and Parker with a bit of Chris and Jessica (plus those other dudes, can't remember their names, but I loved them). In 2, you mostly follow Claire and Moira with a bit of Barry and Natalia.

As for which campaign to pair off, I've initially thought Leon/Jake for the main game, as Leon's campaign had more plot importance to the whole game and Jake's importance to the story as the son of Albert Wesker (plus having Sherry there is pretty darn cool and new characters outside of Leon, Chris, and Ada!). And, if memory serves right, Derek Simmons is their common enemy. Carla does make an appearance, but her role is more prominent with Chris and Ada, the pair I think could be the DLC.

Obviously, changes are gonna have to be made and I'd be all for it if it means making 5 and 6 fucking terrifying as the RE games they are supposed to be.

They are good action games, but not great Resident Evil games.

Make the game twice, no, thrice as long.

Have it take place in a post-apocalyptic, frozen-over by Kyurem Unova, where all Pokemon are wild and out to hunt you (basically "liberated" from their Trainers)

Ghetsis is no longer the ruler of Unova, but his son N is

N is no longer good, he is now trying to be like his dad, liberating Pokemon from their trainers

Have every Pokemon from gen 1-9 show up

You can no longer battle Gym Leaders until the post-game, because their pokemon have been "liberated" from them. You instead have to rescue them from N's capture

Your only partner is your rival (depending on gender, Hilda or Hilbert)

The final boss of the game is N, and it is a double battle

During the final boss, every Gym Leader you've rescued will battle with you

Like Abe's Odyssee, you have to rescue at least half of the Gym Leaders to get the good ending (that number being 7/14 Gym Leaders)

If you rescue less than seven Gym Leaders you will get the bad ending

Battling/rescuing the Elite Four is optional, but you will get the best ending if you do so

Since Unova has been frozen over, a fire type pokemon will be your starter, but you can still choose the other starters as your parteners

Original film was a dance troupe and manger end up on island. Radioactive spider bit turns manager into a monster. They hold out until a man arrives and whips them into a torch mob because women TOTALLY couldn’t do that by themselves  🙄 [eyeroll emoji, just in case it looks like something different on another.]

I’ve been looking into cases of male-on-female cannibalism in some spider species get inspired for some trash

A. brasiliensis males use pheromones to attract females, in contrast to most other burrowing wolf spiders, where the females attract the males. Males have been observed to specifically cannibalize on older females that were lured into the male's burrow, while preferring mating with virgins.

Male water spiders, Argyronetia aquatica, show a predilection for mating with larger females, while cannibalizing females smaller than themselves.

The mating interactions of E. culicivora is species-specific. Their mating interactions follow mutual mate choice in which both males and females have preferences for partners and perform displays. These preferences vary with gender and age. This behavioral characteristic differs from other jumping spiders, where the majority of males show preference and pursue females... Cannibalism of both sexes are more common than other spider species. The frequency with which males kill females is higher than that of females killing male.

A wider variety of woman ,including older women and female bodybuilders. Hire women writers for dialogue. Show the women being supportive and mostly not “catty”.

Don’t have monster be sole man in cast so we don’t go for a “all men are predators” symbolism like biological essentialists.  Perhaps the husband of one of the women? We can even point out that mating cannibalism is still rare in most species and play up the manager as kinda skeevy.

Include a trans woman if able. She is NOT to be killed off.

Put CAREFUL thought into the meta-jokes and who gets killed off so don’t reinforce sexism we are mocking. And avoid any other “people other than white blonde dies”.

Include a weird scene where the manspider instead of immediately attacking a woman does a mating dance, and gets angry when she just stands there in shock. This could help provide info for a scientist type character to figure out what’s going on.

Make the werespider man based on earlier D&D takes of the Ettercap: a mammal convergently mutated/evolved to be spidery rather than a clear hybrid

Could also then have him make use of the spiders on the island, and perhaps even try to replicate his method transformation on some of the women.

Have it be uncertain whether or not someone will survive/escape an attack rather than a guaranteed kill.

Ah! I love these questions!

Hm…I guess it could be PG-13. I mean, the Pirates of the Carribean movies were PG-13 so why not one of the remakes? Actually, it would probably have to be PG-13 because people thought some elements of the original animated movie were dark with Dr. Facillier and his “friends from the other side”. Again, I would kind of love it if there was more backstory on Dr. Facillier especially since I think I read somewhere that in one of the earlier scripts he was supposed to be Mama Odie’s son.

I think a dark more realistic take on the movie would be interesting but if they tried to make a complete remake I’m realizing now that would mean they’d have to probably create some CGI frogs which I’m not sure how that would look. 

Idris Elba as either Imhotep or Rick O’Connell

Lupita Nyong’o as Evie Carnahan or Anck Su Namon

Regina Hall or Jaz Sinclair as another possible Evie

John Boyega as Jonathan Carnahan or Rick O’Connell

Morris Chestnut, LL Cool J, and Michael Ealy as the “American treasure hunters”, Henderson, Daniels and Burns.

Michael K. Williams as Dr. Terrence Bey

Oded Fehr as either Dr. Terrence Bey or an older Ardeth Bey (I know he’s not in the same color range as the rest, but he was so awesome first time around, it would be a shame not to include him).
