That scene was also filmed inside the real Westwood Theatre in Canada. When Alice escapes from the Nemesis in the RPD, she reconnects a broken finger. Milla was convinced it would be cut out due to the plastic look of the fake finger. Thomas Kretschmann insisted on wearing his jacket for the film. Anderson jokes in the DVD commentaries that when Alexander Witt was made director, he knew after Black Hawk Down he'd have to deal with helicopters. A large amount of the film's budget was spent on obtaining helicopters. They were taken from various places. Certain choices were made in regards to the Nemesis. The awakening of Matt/Nemesis was purposely identical to the awakening of Alice in order to establish some sort of link. The Nemesis costume was altered heavily with make-up and CGI to limit the rubbery look. Anderson felt the idea of the Nemesis firing consecutive rockets at people would lose its appeal, so added in a chaingun. The electronic maps used by Ashford were added into the film in response to problems in the first film's development. Maps were added late into that film's development because test audiences were confused by the lab's layout. The maps are derived from the Resident Evil games, where players can check a map to work out where they are. The entire church was a movie set since they couldn't gain permission to drive a motorcycle through the window. The decision to add a Licker into the first movie was made very late in production. R&D began early in Apocalypse to make up for flaws in the quality in the first. Unlike the first film, the Lickers in Apocalypse are entirely CGI.
