I haven't seen any of his movies but I do hear good things about him. So this might be good or at least better than the previous movies.

If only Duncan Jones felt the need to show off how awesome his wife is.

I didn't like the Warcraft movie, but I know how you feel. There are several franchises I love that don't get sequels, but crap I hate that do and don't deserve it.

Oh God, the Saw and Conjuring?! Oh well, I guess cheap date night for teenage boys trying to get to 2nd base when a girl screams and grips them when a thing happens is as good a death for Resident Evil as anything else.

He's a great director and The Conjuring is a really good horror movie.

The Human actors were horribly miscast.

Not just miscast. They were poorly written too. The only people I cared for is maybe one of the orcs. That's it. I was kinda bored too since it kept being too much focus on lore. I'm fine with lore, but I kinda need some interesting characters and a story to gripe me. Though some of the action was not bad.

I'm not much of a Saw fan, but Lights Out was pretty good. Also the Conjuring was fairly competent. I'd watch a Resident Evil reboot with James Wan involved. The worst they could do is slightly improve over the originals. Those movies have sucked.

If the new movies were more in-line with the first few games and didn't feature a Mary Sue protagonist, I would actually be up for seeing them. It's not like Resident Evil doesn't have the potential to be a good horror film without all the coke-fueled, over-the-top action.

Five sequels, not seven - the live-action series only had six installments. And as for Warcraft...sshh...let it go...let it go...

Eh its not as painful of a loss compared to Power Rangers.

And they botched the lore by making Garona Warchief of Horde and not having the Siege of Stormwind happen at all.

Well he certainly couldn't do worse. James Wan is kind of king of the jump scare, so I'd expect them aplenty in a new RE movie. The RE games' stories have become almost a self parody, so it'd be interesting to see what line he took.

Wan knows how to make decent horror movies, it will definitely be better than the ones we got so far.

Budget to profit ratio.
RE movies make a ton of money (last one made $312 million on a $40 million budget) while Warcraft barely broke even.

Yes and I don't care. 7 movies in 15 years and they're already planning to reboot the damn thing? Give it a rest.
The story (if you can call it that) was finally finished in the last movie and the game series is popular again so why not?
