[edit] This article seems pointless

I'm all for having an article on the main character of the RE films, but a bulk of this is just the plot of the movies, which is already in their own articles.-=Worloq=- 21:17, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

I agree. Most of this is a very detailed re-tell of the plots, which I think is considered copyright violation. I'm attempting to try and re-do the Characters in the Resident Evil films article, but I wanted to try and fix this one as well. But someone could seriously start cutting down the crazy long Resident Evil: Extinction section of this article.-Lindsey8417 23:07, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

I think we should have a different picture of Milla Jovovich as Alice. First off, the picture currently shown isnt even in the movie, its part of a deleted scence, which isnt useful in her page. I have hundreds of screen shots. I'm going to change it to one that I think is more appropriate, if anyone opposes, then fine. We can discuss it here.

[edit] Criticism?

I think that a lot of people criticise her character as being a Mary Sue (especially since she has Godmod powers at the end of Apocalypse, and steals all of Jill's action) and, the Jill Valentine article mentions that she relies more on brute strength than her wits, by comparison to Jill. Is a section on criticism warranted? Darien Shields 04:57, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

I believe that a section of criticism is warranted, as it is the Character Analysis' of the rest of RE Character. You can make it if you want as long as it mantains itself neutral and based on things without exagerations.

I think that falls under OR, which is not allowed. Personally I dislike her character (yes, I consider her to be a Mary Sue, considering she was dating the director Paul Anderson at the time and she practically upstages the established game characters in part 2) and the Resident Evil film franchise as a whole. It's a good thing that Capcom essentially disowned the films by keeping them separate from the games. Jonny2x4 06:58, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Is it true that the of her name came from Alice in Wonderland? This is Alice in ZOMBE LAND? Paul W S Anderson sucks... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.178.93.96 (talk) 10:24, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion

I have just deleted the part where it says her titties are shown in both movies. This is inappropiate.

Good job, but that thing at the top of the article should be deleted aswell. Slimming it down would make it bad. I saw the Albert Wesker article, and it being slimmed down sucks.201.141.239.174 23:43, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Alice mirrors several characters?

Could it be noted who some of those characters might be? 76.5.52.119 15:59, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Nope, that would be original research unless a verifiable source can be found. Jonny2x4 15:29, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
