Deliberate mistake: The zombies are to exit from a standard 40ft shipping container in Vegas. When we see the shot of Alice and co from inside the container you can see that up to 1/4 of the container contains no zombies. However when released, the amount of zombies seen is far more than what could have fitted into the remaining space of the container. (00:56:50)

Alice: We fought the infection. We survived the apocalypse. And now, we face extinction.

More quotes from Resident Evil: Extinction

Trivia: When Alice's clone stops the lasergrid from killing the real Alice, there is a shot of the computer screen showing the disintegration of Isaacs, Dr. J. This is a reference to Jason Isaacs, who has a history of appearing in Paul W.S. Anderson movies. Anderson produced this movie, so the circle is complete.

Question: What was the point of the scientist releasing the clone Alices and then putting them through the test to have them killed? Did they explain this and I missed it or what?

SAZOO1975

Chosen answer: The reason that the cloned alices were put through the tests was their attempt to get a "perfect" clone of her. They knew that Alice was the key to taking back the zombie infestation, so they were trying to get the "perfect" clone. The perfect clone would have all of her memories and reactions, so they put the clones through that testing facility. If she made it out alive, then she was the perfect clone. If she didn't, then it was back to the drawing board.
