Silent Hill 2 Film "Stalled" Over Director's Legal Woes

Yeah, pretty much what you've said. I've watched Silent Hill last weekend for the third time, and it really struck me how profoundly stupid the story is. It's even more of a clusterfuck than the game's story, which is an accomplishment by itself. On the plus side, some of the monster scenes were good (sans PH, obviously, who shouldn't have been in the movie in the first place), and so were a few of the "puzzle scenes." It's not a bad movie, but it could have been much better. The sheer stupidity of the cult didn't help at any rate...Proverbial Jon said:
Honestly i am sorta glad for this. I enjoyed the first Silent Hill game and slightly enjoyed the movie (but never considered it a true Silet Hill movie) But i'll be damned before i see them bastardize the Silent Hill 2 storyline the way they did the Silent Hill one.
Certainly an odd situation, but the first movie wasn't that great so I won't be praying for some miraculous epiphany.
I remember kinda liking the first movie, but then again I was drunk. Still, I get a laugh out of the fact that he got jail just because he tweeted, no matter how grim the situation is.
I actually am glad that a SH2 movie isn't going to be made... yet.
I didn't liked the first movie, so I didn't want them to mess up the second one.

I know what you meanbjj hero said:
Seriously? Imagine that's your mother that he killed... Still think he deserved 12 months? I didn't think so and regardless of him being the writer of a popular video game film franchise it doesn't mean he should be given a light touch
He broke the law
He killed someone
You have no idea how discusting it is to see someone die infront of you, especiall someone you know
OT: Oh no
Hopefully the Silent Hill 2 film will be scrapped unless they can get a better writer or director. It would be so much easier if film studios just hired the people who wrote the story lines for the video games that they want to film.
Honestly, I would rather see the video game companies make the movies computer animated instead. That way they can still use the writers they worked with and can hire back the voice actors.
It seems a bit wrong that he is only in jail for a year. Considering that someone died I would think he would get a much harsher punishment.

I don't necessarily agree with Bjj Hero here but I will say that roads are generally bigger and the urban geography is on the whole a lot more sparse in America than it is here in Britain - therefore drunk driving here maybe marginally more dangerous for all concerned. I cannot be arsed to find my own figures but it is anecdotally accepted in Britain that drink-driving rates have fallen dramatically in the last 20-30 years. It is simply no longer socially acceptable.gristledemon said:
The man is scum on multiple levels mainly for killing a person. He deserves so much more than 12 months.
Secondly destroying silent hill by meshing the first and second together (Both were very good games) But putting them together and not even giving Pyramid head a justification for him being there other than fan service. I mean shit Sean Bean was in it and he is a good actor and he did nothing in the entire movie but stand in two different spots. It was just shit.
