Resident Evil, "Did You Know" 's?

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Did you know that Marvin's character was originally supposed to be white?  

[Mr. Kennedy]

Huh. Glad he wasn't.  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Although you gotta wonder. Two RE games in a row, the first character who dies is black.

I can't believe I never said this sooner. xd

Did you know Jill's REmake model was made in the image of uber-hot babe Julia Voth? I can get a pic later, right now I'm in school. razz  

[Vankala]

I didn't know that one. I went ahead and looked her up and wow, she is very beautiful.

I would've said it, but I thought everyone knew. She's been my PS3 wallpaper for a while now. Mikami also reused Jill's face and based another game character on Voth in a game called P.N.03.

Other notable characters whose appearance was deliberately based on real people:

Jacques Blanc from Onimusha 3
Maria from SH2 (based on her voice actress)
Elle from SH Homecoming (also based on her voice actress)

I'd list a bunch of Final Fantasy characters based on Gackt, but Gackt isn't a real person.


And while we're on the topic... Did you know that Rebecca's RE0 model was based on the image of the Japanese pop star Ayumi Hamasaki? So if you thought Rebecca looked a bit too cartoony, that's why.

Sorry about not getting the picture sooner, I was playing the Uncharted 2 beta. razz

Anyway, the lovely Julia Voth!  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

That's a crappy comparison, though. Since Jill barely ever smiles and never like THAT. Here's a better one:

Man, I can't wait until b***h Slap comes out on DVD. I missed out on it during the Toronto Film Festival this month.

Haha, I just used that pic for the recent news I just put up a few minutes ago. xd

Yeah, I wanna see b***h Slap too...  

[Mr. Kennedy]

What is this b***h Slap?

I had already mentioned that in this thread. xd

Mr. Kennedy

What is this b***h Slap?

It's this movie starring Julia Voth. It's made to be a sort of an homage to 1970's exploitation movies. But basically it's an action movie filled with girls, boobs, guns and bad guys. So it's probably very awesome.

Was it this thread? I couldn't find it.

Sorry, Bio... don't mean to rain on your parade but...

I know you said you loved Tara Platt as Jill in RE: UC. However, did you know that Jill in Umbrella Chronicles is not voiced by Tara Platt, but by Patricia Ja Lee, Jill's VA in RE5? You can hear/see the proof yourself in the video interview in the news thread.

Makes sense to me about Jill's voice actor from RE5 voicing her in RE: UC. To say the truth, I can't really make any comment about Jill's voices from the past, so I can't say a love or hate statement.

What I didn't know is that D.C. Douglas, Wesker's RE5 voice actor, voiced the traitor in Umbrella Chronicles. I thought it was Richard Waugh... until I actually cared to look and listen carefully again. However, I bet everyone knows that.

...No wonder I said that as soon as the intro was over first time playing UC.

To be completely honest with you, it's been a while since I heard what Jill sounds like in UC, so I didn't remember exactly.
But if that's the case, then it makes hating UC that much easier. So thank you, for that. Now I can say that aside from the fact that there was no White Mage Opera Marcus, and the guilty pleasure soundtrack, there's not one good thing about Umbrella Chronicles.

But you know, if Tara Platt HAD voiced Jill... Say... In Remake, Jill would've sounded dayumn sexy!
