New photo from the upcoming Monster Hunter movie

You say that but this is the same director that made the Resident Evil movies a blockbuster success, why wouldn't Capcom entrust him to do the same for Monster Hunter lol.
Yep. People keep forgetting or just ignore that Paul's Resident Evil movies earned over $1 billion at the boxoffice.
A lot of movies can be considered block buster successes. But they're still garbage movies... this doesnt even look like the source material. I actively avoided those RE movies for years, still haven't seen one. Transformers continues to get movie after movie and the general consensus is that they're terrible films. Plus, if any movie makes any money in China it's a guaranteed franchise; regardless of how bad it is
I'm not arguing about the quality of the movies. I'm talking about the indisputable fact that the team that made those movies was able to turn it into a massive success.
With so many other video game inspired movies failing to do that, why wouldn't Capcom entrust Monster Hunter to them again?
So just because this guy makes lucrative movies, criticizing the director choice is unreasonable? Movies can (try to) be true to the source material and be lucrative too. Actually, I bet would be even more lucrative if it was.
Edit: Mila seems to be using the exact same clothes as the ones she used on the re movies btw.

The Resident Evil movies also had an odd trajectory in quality. It went from pretty good, to awful, to why is this so good, to so bad it's good, and ended on awful but decent fun.

I shall boycott this movie by not buying a ticket, but rather by double dipping on MHW on opening day. That'll show em!
No one is saying that. People are like "wtf is Capcom doing?" when it makes perfect business sense for them to go this route, especially as there doesn't seem to be any damage done to RE from the movies.
So it will start with normal soldiers trapped on a isekai and have to learn the way of the hunt, would be pretty funny if the AoT movie is the same, sick and tired of isekai on anime but I guess Hollywood just found out about the genre.
These photos are horrific. My anticipation went from 4/10 to 1/10. Haha

Someone actually saw that photo, gave it the ok to post on social media, and thought "yeah lets put this out, the MH fans are gonna love this shit"
Oooooook then.
I guess is a movie with the main focus will be again American soldiers and not the actual material of the videogame series.
Why exactly they doing this?
Without joking, the director could easily just switch at least the guns with melee weapons and call it "Monster Hunter, but with more serious tone".
Because the director and main star spent the last decade making the shit-tastic Resident Evil films, so this all they really know how to do.
Actually there is still a proper Monster Hunter in there played by Tony Jaa
This is gonna be another Masters of the Universe, isn't it?
I thought this is what they were trying to do.
Like these pics are before they find the monster world or something.
Just you wait: the post-credits teaser will reveal that the source of the portals is being generated in Raccoon City. Backdoor Resident Evil reboot, baby!
This is looking worse and worse. And my standards weren't even that high.
I wasn't expecting some Oscar worthy think piece out of a Monster Hunter movie. Just something nice and action packed with decent CGI monsters and some cool costume design. That's it, bare minimum.
But I guess I'm asking too much of Hollywood on this.
Technically speaking, zombie wyverns and dragons have been a thing since MH4!
Imagine it's zombie dinosaurs which launches a resident evil dino crisis crossover.
The capcom cinematic universe is beginning.
Did the army have a hand in making this movie??? How could someone look at ANY Monster Hunter game made and think of barebone camouflage army outfits.
Avatar already had modern troops fighting against fantasy elements back in 2009. Monster Hunter doesn't need to be changed into the exact same thing.

Yes. Please let it be this instead.
