Now that Christophe Gans is confirmed returning for Return To Silent Hill, do you think his second film will ignore or retcon the events of this film?
Not that RTSS has to refer in any way to this film given that the new movie appears to be telling a sort of version of SH2 based on the concept art and storyboards we saw, but if Gans does refer at all to Rose (which he may given Pyramid Head's presence in his first film), do you think he will ignore or erase the events of Revelation?

Will This Entire Film Be Retconned?

I can see it with eyes closed
Shadows that look like blood
Dead as far as the mind goes
Fear that comes from my head
Lives in the mirror"

He'll probably ignore it but given the disconnect between the two stories it probably won't be directly retconned.

If you're going to refer to Rose/Sharon/Chris at all in RTSS I don't see how you can without at least obliquely referencing Revelation unless he's going to retcon it.

Re: Will This Entire Film Be Retconned?
Return to Silent Hill is an adaptation of Silent Hill 2, which in itself wasn't very connected to 1 or 3, so I reckon nothing will be retconned.
At most, perhaps some people in the movie will mention Alessa and the cult but that "they're gone now".

I don't think we'll see references to either of the existing Silent Hill films in this new one.
