I have to admit that although the Resident Evil movies aren’t really going along truly according to the game, but it’s still a nice trilling action movie nonetheless. But how did Paul W.S. Anderson, director of all those Resident Evil movies, keep coming up for ideas for new entries in the running franchise? According to his wife, who is also the popular series star Milla Jovovich, “professional video game players” do his research for him.

Yes, Mr Anderson (not the guy from Matrix) didn’t play the game at all (or at least he didn’t claim to), and directed the movie based on how others played the game. Yup, he literally watched people playing the console game for days.

Thanks to the clone army introduced in Resident Evil: Extinction, Anderson doesn’t have to worry about having sex withheld any time soon, so he can focus instead on watching footage of kids playing Resident Evil games in front of the console for hours.

“Paul knows kids that are professional video game players,” Milla said. “All they do is play the games until they master every level and unlock every code. They play the games for weeks and give Paul the footage. So he’s literally watching days of the most awesome Resident Evil players out there to get inspiration for the next installment of the franchise.”

Right, did you hear anybody that are interested in hiring Starcraft 2 players in Hollywood?
