Resident Evil, "Did You Know" 's?

[Vinessa_Valentine]

Did you know that the Bandersnatch from Code Veronica gets its name from a poem in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland titled "Jabberwocky"?

Did you know that in the REmake for the gamecube the crimson heads mostly attack with thier right arm?

Did you know that the handcannon in RE4 is actually Barry's gun from the REmake?

Actually, it's not. The 3D model is different and it fires different rounds.

Unless you're thinking about the Magnum Revolver from RE0.

Did you know that the first RE movie contains constant Alice in Wonderland references?

- Alice is the main character
- The computer's name is the 'Red Queen'
- The Red Queen demands that Rain be beheaded
- The paperweight used to crush Lisa's head is an Alice in Wonderland paperweight
- When Alice has the flashback to watching the test of the T-Virus and Anti-virus, a white rabbit is the test specimen
- In order to get into the Hive, the team goes through a mirrored door akin to Through the Looking Glass
- The Red Queen doesn't do it herself, but by activating the lasers succeeds in getting something else to behead the medic.
- Kaplan constantly worries about time like the White Rabbit


Also, it contains references to the games (of course we knew this was coming):

- Near the beginning, the camera has a major close-up of Alice's eye. This is the background for the start menu of the first Resident Evil game.
- Alice's "husband", Spencer, shares the same name as the mansion from the first game (The Spencer Estate)
- After the team returns to the laser hallway a second time, the bodies of the members are gone. "Where are the bodies? Where did they go?" This refers to when you kill a zombie in the games and leave the room, only to return and find they've disappeared.
- Matt finds his sister Lisa dead and has to watch her die, much like Steve finds his father zombified and must kill him.
- In the beginning, the main character has memory loss that returns to them by the end of the game. This is the same as in Resident Evil: Survivor.

Whoa...

Did you know that in RE2 in the basement, in the hallway where you use the Club key on the green door, you see REDRUM on the left wall. It looks like it was finger-painted on.

And for all you youngin's, REDRUM is MURDER spelled backward, and is a reference to one of the best horror movies ever made: The Shining.  

[Vankala]

Hm....i don't think i ever noticed that. I've gotta play RE2 again. Lol  

[Canas Renvall]

I just found this out today, actually.

Did you know that Michael Gough, the voice actor that provided Osmund Saddler's voice in RE4, was also the voice of Harry Mason in the first Silent Hill?  

[Biohazard EXTREME]

Wow, what a downgrade.

Noice! It's in the basement, as I said. It'll be on the left side of your screen, and it'll be mega-ultra creepy. 3nodding

When I was playing that for the first time in 99, my Dad saw it and was all like "Woah... that's badass." whee  

[REaceofclubs]

Oh, baybee! Now I'm pumped! This is gonna be So. Sweet.

There's also a part in RE3, where Jill first walks in on Brad in that bar, it says, "This too shall pass" on the door frame where she's standing. I noticed that one all by myself.
