Re: Music that resemble Silent Hill OST's

Guys, you HAVE to listen to this! Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have done it again. I've always thought their work resembled Akira Yamaoka's but this score could literally fit any of the Silent Hill games. It's that good.

Re: Cons! What the teaser could have done better! ಠ益ಠ

The way I see it, they could make it just about someone wandering into the town for something else other than personal baggage. In the first Silent Hill you had a father looking for his missing daughter after a car crash (principally, because I know at the end it all had a purpose for happening), or...

Re: Silent Hills / PT Team

I'm not sure if this is where I'm supposed to post this, but if they want to go for a new composer, I would have no problem if Mica Levi took the job, his work for the movie Under the Skin was amazing, bizzare, creepy, everything: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFTM6xseawc https://www.youtube.com/w...

Re: Heather Mason a lesbian?

I don't think there's anything that indicates it, but there's also nothing that denies it, so I guess you could say either assumption has the same possibility of being correct. I don't think she is, but I do however think she would be the experimenting type, as someone else pointed out. Take that as...

Hmm, I still think this game is great. And I find it's story 10x better than Homecoming's and Origins'.

Re: Let's list the things that happened to Cheryl

I had a couple theories about what that may have to do with, but one is highly speculative. The speculative one sees Cheryl as having worked at the shop once upon a time. She may have deleted the footage herself out of hurt because of how her parent's marriage went. The other is about her view of m...

Re: Let's list the things that happened to Cheryl

So, I had another question, and I wasn't sure if this was the topic to post it in...what do you think is the meaning behind the Clear Picture shop voice message? I've heard two variations so far, and they both refer to someone in the shop deleting a couple's wedding video. I thought it must've been ...

Re: Screenplay

Look at the professional critics of the first film; they complained about a long movie with a confusing plot. It's clear that Hadida perceived them and wouldn't let that happen again. Of course to do that he sacrificed everything original about Silent Hill. He also managed to get the second movie a...

I doubt he got backlash as bad as the one Hulett got, but I still kinda feel bad for him. This movie was more than likely studio rigged to the bones, and I didn't expect it to get that bad of a critical reception.

Re: Let's list the things that happened to Cheryl

So, I've replayed the game about two times these past few days and decided to necromance this thread, I have a question. Do you think Cheryl ever got to graduate? I mean, the echoes mention prom night, but never graduation. And I'm not sure at what time the stabbing at the mall happened, if I recall...

Re: I Saw It! Post Your Reviews Here! (Mark your spoilers, t

All that said, I don't think the complaints about faithfulness directed at the first movie equate to the ones directed at this movie. The first movie attempts to mix various elements of the overall series while keeping the first game as a central thread ('cause I mean, it was the first movie, it was...

Re: Tracks Identification + General Questions

Okay, so I don't know if anyone noticed this before, but the track in SH4 that plays when you're going through one of those circular hallways in the Prison with monsters coming out of the walls sounds exatly like a darker version of A Stray Child 's (from SH3) first minute. Also, the first sound in ...

Basset will rant endlessly and drag on with endless theories that somehow *explain* each retcon/fault the movie shows us--theories without ground, of course.

At least TwinPerfect will have something to fill their free time up with.
I agree.

See!? I think you do. You think I do what? Buy that Silent Hill 3 is unadaptable without retconning? No I don't, why doesn't he say it straight that he was wrong that he wouldn't have to retcon anything? Not gonna happen, is it? So I'm supposed to assume we were wrong in the first place by expectin...

Re: I Saw It! Post Your Reviews Here! (Mark your spoilers, t

If retconning was crime, I'd indict Gans for committing it on his own movie after it was produced. Changing something that doesn't belong to your fictional universe (e.g. Pyramid Head not being part of James mind) isn't retconning, changing something already established in your same universe is.

Double? Wasn't the budget $20 million? It has only made $33 million worldwide, it would still need $7 million more to fit that description.

I'm not saying the film is high art. I'm saying the games aren't. This was so much like the game that it was crazy, it's biggest flaws were flaws right out of the game. I'm seeing why they talked about not even wanting to visit these forums anymore in the Voices in the Static podcast. You guys have...

I thought my father and brother were here, but I can't find them either... Based on what Angela said to James in their first encounter, it is very likely that she also forgets her killing. Also, James was very much aware of his purpose of visiting Silent Hill before he arrived. I like to think thei...
