Could somebody 'SPOIL' the retard up there!

Double Post:
Box-Office estimates for the Week-End are 20.1 Million dollars. Not bad. Even if it drops by, say, 40% next week, it'll probably make back it's 45 Million dollars budget. And that's not even the gross World-wide.

So, I'm pretty confident about a sequel.

I agree, if only because the movie coulda used more cowbe...Pyramid Head.

Why are people so obessed with Pyramid Nerd.

He shouldn't even be in the film since the James isn't.

Was it explained in SH2 then that Pyramid Head was infact only a manifestation of James' version of hell?

Pyramid Head is a manifestation of the town's old executioners. James sees them because he remembers that painting in the Historical Society from his last visit and it freaked him out -- PH isn't specifically tied to James.

Correct for fact

Pyramid Head is pretty much James' villain. Maybe other people in Silent Hill have/do/will see Pyramid Head, but Pyramid Head really only belongs in Silent Hill 2. He really only exists to punish those who are extremely guilt-ridden, such as James.

Silent Hill is extremely ambiguous as far as what is and what isn't. Like I said before, each Silent Hill game has had a similar-but-different look to it, especially regarding the alternate worlds. In the end, Silent Hill is pretty much seen as the protagonist sees it, even if there is a universal basis for evil lurking underneath everything.

The only reason Pyramid Head was in Silent Hill is because everyone goes apeshit for him and he was truly a great villain. If Walter Sullivan had happened to be the coolest SH villain I'm sure they would have thrown him in the movie instead. I still don't feel Pyramid Head belongs in Silent Hill, but I think we were all willing to let it slide because he is extremely cool.

Or he was.

I found that finale with the barbwire rape scene to be fucking great though even if it isn't "Silent Hill" type of stuff.

Am I the only one who liked seeing a more human side of Dahlia? I would have liked to have seen more of her, actually.

Pyramid Nerd is a representation of James' anger and lust. That's why he's always killing shit and raping monsters in SH2. I don't remember what the significance is in concerns to Pyramid being a Civil War-era executioner, though.

They simply should have based the movie on Silent Hill 2. I think it would have played out well on film, and the concept doesn't seem particularly cliched to me. Also, Sean Bean makes a perfect Sunderland.

ONE DOES NOT SIMPLY WALK...INTO HEAVEN'S NIGHT.

::steel pipe::

Well I can easily see a sequel with Sean Bean based on SHII, or would that not work? I'm not too familiar with the series so I'm not sure.

Wouldn't work, in terms of SH2's story.

It's the only logical route.

Sean Bean's character is left wondering what had happened to Rose and Sharon, since they're trapped in Silent Hill, and it only makes sense for him to revisit the town in order to find out what happened.

They fucked it all up already, though. The greatest thing in the entire series is featured in SH2. This is the fact that the town is a representation of oneself. The dark side is nothing but a reflection of one's own evils. The whole story about birthing Samael in the first SH and the third is just boring and stupid.

Woah, how is this a fact? Sure, it's an element of SH2, but you can't just throw out SH1 and 3's plot. It's freakin' canon.

Also, as I've said above, they'd have to create a new story with some kind of new twists if Sean Bean is going to be the main character.

It can't be based off of SH2.

SH2 (the movie) could easily rewrite SH2 (the game)'s story as Not saying that's what I would want, but they could easily rework the story to fit that mold.

EDIT:This is why I really feel they should've written Christopher's segments so that HE learned the history of the town, and dropped the Dark Alessa exposition sequence. His scenes are mostly pointless filler as are.

Agreed. It would have been such a simple fix that for some reason, they didn't do. Oh well, I'll deal with it.

Could've worked, but I like it also that way.

And Sean Bean's character was written in the script because of the only studio note they received: "There are no men?!".

Hey i saw Silent hill and i was like OMG it was so good no it was great they did so good on it but there was a problem. The main person dident interact that much with the monsters. But it was still good. Ill give it a 8 out of 10.

Double Post:
O ya and you dont see PH that much in the movie so that sucked but when you do see PH it was AWSOME.

I really have to say I was impressed. Graphics were top notch and the story was excellent. Easily the best movie adaptation of a video game I've ever seen. A couple parts made me cringe like the whole cult thing (a bit hokey)but overall enjoyable. Really lacked monsters though and the ending was a bit confusing.

8.5/10

A sequal HAS to be made. They have a story for the next one (SH2) all they have to do is stick with it. They can come back to Rose and Sharron in the 3rd film.
