"I am the reaper" sounds seriously cliche and not very Silent Hill at all. I hope there aren't a lot of lines like that. That kind of hurt. So do the scenes that take places out of Silent Hill.
But it's obvious that a compromise between cliche American horror films and Silent Hill had to be made; the movie has to appeal to the average movie goer and not just video game fans. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Rebirth makes more sense within the context of the story. Also, she may not even be done speaking. You know how evil deities always like giving themselves different titles.
"I AM THE WICKED. I AM THE REAPER. I AM THE REBIRTH!" or some shit. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
If that's their criteria for a male lead, we should all hope they DON'T get to make Silent Hill 2 into a movie. Oh noes, James shows EMOTION from time to time! Holy shit, quick, give him tits and a vagina so the American movie-going public doesn't have to feel uncomfortable about a male expressing emotional pain! This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. The closer you get to light, the greater your shadow becomes.

I have to disagree there. There was a real difference between Harry and James. Harry was rather weak, for lack of a better word. I mean if I were looking for my only child in a town filled with demons I would be kicking ass and taking names. James however had been through alot. He had reason to be distraut but he did approach the town with a sort of strength. After all, he chose to be there to search for a dead spouse. That takes balls and he could have left the way he came in at any time.
James did show emotion from time to time but at least it was appropriate. Harry jumped at his shadow a bit to often. If they do make a sequal I believe they will keep the lead role male. In this case however, I can understand how they might see it as nessessary. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
We are inclined to feel the stakes are higher if the stereotypicaly strong lead can't face up to them. I was speaking idiomatically.

she said: "I am the Rebirth" which is totally true with the story ^^
and I think it was better to take a female role beside then to jsut do harry, because like someone said Harry (male lead) didn't really add something more then a Mother would have done with her daughter and for me it feel just more natural to see a Female main character for the story of SH1, but if they ever do a movie with the story of SH2 they better stick with James XD What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Pyramid Head actor. Most amazing jew boots |
i wonder how he feels wearing that. i know i'd be happy to act as pyramid head. lucky ass...
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
In real life, if reality were flipped on me entirely and I'm going toe-to-toe with demons while armed with steel pipes and handguns, I'd freak out. I'd have the resolve to Jam it back in, in the dark.

Part of the female-protagonist issue might be that SH hasn't had the best luck with male leads. Henry was a walking plank of wood, and Harry, while not bad for his time, was still kind of a dolt. James was the best male lead the series has had, and personally I found Heather to be a more believable, more human character. Not that James was necessarily bad, but Heather was the best the series has had so far. The correct amount of freaking out mixed with just enough taste for revenge (spoilers I won't go into). And it's been mentioned that SH is full of maternal themes. It at least makes as much sense to have a female lead as a male one, even if it's taking liberties with the plot. Either way, women are under-represented as far as SH main characters go. It'll be nice to see another good female lead, if Mitchell can pull off the Rose role. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Aw man, owned by humorous typo

I'd be scared, yes, but I would still kick some major ass. People just react differently I guess. How ya doing, buddy? |
But, the thing is, you don't know that.
We'd all like to think that with it comes down to it we have the shit to do what it takes, but the reality is much much different. I was speaking idiomatically. |
I won't lie to you. I would leave my poor human larvas to die.
But then, I would probably be consumed by guilt and be summoned to Silent Hill anyway [sighs, then goes after the damn child]. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? Return to Crystal Lake... My Wii Friend Code 1942-4227-2974-0276 |
I can guarantee that I'd have plenty of difficulty moving around in my pants, being that they'd be plenty marinated in a generous blend of urine and fecal matter. That said, I can't say I'd be much help to my kid. I'd honestly try to keep my cool, if only to keep Emmanuel Jr. from freaking out.
Now if I were alone, that'd be a different story. It all really depends on what kind of freaky stuff I'd be seeing, and whether or not I had the means necessary to defend myself. A steel pipe and a single hand gun wouldn't do it for me, but if I had an AK, some grenades, and a brick my confidence would more than likely swell. Ideally. FELIPE NO |
You would take a brick over a steel pipe!? O_o
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
I've found bricks far more intimidating than long, slender pieces of polished steel.

In the game it's different, you can run around and fight all you want because life is expendable. Infinite life = do whatever you want, go ahead, take a piss on pyramid head as he's about to slice you, you'll just come back at the previous save point. But in real life.. well, who'd be dumb enough to do what I just said.:lolsign: There's nowhere I can't reach. |
One thing I'm afraid of for this movie is that it will be too bright. That was the same mistake that Silent Hill 4 which really ruined the Silent Hillesque atmosphere that was so prevalent in all the other games.

I don't know if you guys have noticed this, but the Silent Hill website is different: http://www.konami.com/silenthill/
First there was Harry's picture, now James'. What will be next, Heather's, Henry's? Silent Hill 5 character pic? God I wish so. That or a Silent Hill remake. Ç__Ç How ya doing, buddy? |
I was speaking idiomatically. |
EDIT: I just noticed that right now there's the code 38496 (or is it 33496?) in the background. How ya doing, buddy? |
oh wow, you have good eyes.
The numbers blended in so I didn't realize, it's 38496. There's also some Kanji next to the middle picture. Most amazing jew boots |
I'm definatly going to see this movie.
Ow and could someone post the tv trailer again? It doesn't seem to work. It might be my computer of course What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
