Resident Evil Weird Moments Thread

I don't know if this is considered a weird moment, but I always wonder how all of the characters even stayed sane. I mean they went through hell during the Raccoon City incident. I'm surprised they all didn't need psychiatric evaluation.

^^^ I agree with that one up there.

Chris is a little touched in the head I guess. I think they reserved that in RE5.
Except when he had that little twitch in his eye

I would have thought Jill would be a bit more shaken. Some TEARS maybe?

I can't remember the last time I saw a RE character cry.

The only characters I've ever saw crying were Claire and Sherry. The rest seemed to have nerves of steel lol

It's so rare to see anyone cry in RE that I didn't even remember Claire cry.

Oh my my Oh.

Yeah Claire cried in Code Veronica.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Thought so.

Oh Clairey-kins.

I actually made a thread about this. Given the experiences they've been through, I'm surprised none of them became alcoholics, drug addicts, or killed themselves. Claire should definitely not have her sunny personality anymore.

Chris has turned into a big dope I think. He's still a really cool, awesome and fun character, but definately kind of a dummy. He makes me laugh all the time too.

I was just playing RER a bit earlier, and at one point, this chopper gets smashed, not gonna spoil too much, but Jill was all, "The pilot?!" and Chris said, "Worry about him later", which was funny because clearly that pilot was dead.

And just basically ever since he became a meathead, he's really a changed character. It adds something to him though. I wouldn't say he was dull before, but definatley by CVX, you saw the action hero Chris, and RE5 added to that.

I actually really like the way that Chris is the action hero of the series. And his dumbness is always funny too, so all that combined really sets him apart as a character.

Totally different from a Leon, who is also a great character, but in a totally different way.

And I have also been so pleased with how the series has moved on since Wesker died. I remembe so many people bitching about how the series couldn't move on, but it certainly has. RER is so much fun. Honestly, quite possibly my current fav RE game.

I know right, it's not like viral outbreaks rip through a city causing thousands of people to turn into zombies, then have a nuke blow up the city every day. And the characters afterword are just like, "Yeah, I seen people being killed by zombies and the city I grew up in nuked right in front of my eyes, no big deal"

In RER they use a satelite, it's pretty epic.

In RE4, when the camera is fixed on Luis's crotch in the one cutscene right before you meet Salazar. "I got something for you guys..."

That actually was pretty weird.

The fact that Leon drives into Raccoon City with ease despite the whole outbreak going on and the city in lockdown.

^ I was curious about that too. When you run around there are so many barricades it doesn't seem possible.

I also think it's weird how Wesker only has seven minutes.

I like how Claire rode in on her motorcycle and didn't find the city in flames strange or anything at first.

I think with Leon though and it being his first day in the RPD and already running late it probably didn't really click. But then again when you live in the city and are either watching the news or reading a newspaper.

Technically, in RER, Wesker is still alive. So your argument is invalid.

I have another. On RE2, why is it when after you kill the zombies in the sewer, they float to the top? I mean they're already dead, so they should automatically float right?

Not really when you think about it. If it sinks then floats that's pretty normal. If that's what you mean anyways. Or if you mean it should just float after being killed.

In the 'Two friends play Resident Evil 2' video, one of them points out when you meet Sherry that Claire is 5'4'', and Sherry is half her size. Sherry is 12 years old and apparently less than 3 feet tall. Lol!

What I can never get over in RE2 was why access to the skytram required the eagle and wolf medals again despite that being part Spencer's cloak and dagger puzzles in the mansion =S is it me or has Umbrella got a fetish for all things cloak and dagger?

I like how in RE4 Leon states after him and Ashley cross the bridge and realize there's villagers coming from all sides, "Yeah looks like we're sandwiched in alright."

Am I the only one who immediately thought of Barry in REmake when he invented the 'Jill Sandwich'?

Haha. I forgot the others just add anything if you ever noticed weird moments on RE

I wouldn't say they are necessarily weird moments, these characters are meant to creep you out so they are going to make them not-all-there in the head. Granted, we don't know if Alfred actually liked dressing up as a woman, but he was obsessed with his sister and I believe that's what fueled it.
