It's a simple question, really...

Tora and I just watched "Silent Hill," and we both have the same question:

What in the fuck?

Um, anyone want to clear this one up for us?  Because... yeah.  We... yeah.  No.  I mean, aside from a lot of yelling "You stupid bitch!" at the screen, we're both... pretty damned lost as far as the ending goes.  I mean, it was a frustrating movie as far as movies go, but the end?  Holy crap, dude.  I mean, maybe it's one of those endings you only "get" if you've played the game (neither of us have), but...

What in the fuck?

No...idea. Will not be watching this...evah. Or well...unless I'm really...reeeeeally bored. XD And that's hard to accomplish..so no.

NIAMH!!! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!?!?!? MY GOD!! DID YOU NOT READ THE REVIEW THAT PUPPEH AND I WROTE FOR THAT DAMN STUPID MOVIE?!??!?! Why did you torture Tora and yourself like that?!?! *comfort* It's not you guys! IT'S THE STUPID MOVIE. Obviously a blind sugar glider with Alzheimer wrote and directed the damn thing.

(sigh) And I'd been looking forward to seeing Laurie Holden on screen again.

I went to the theater to see it, so I understand your pain. The only thing I can figure is they died. I was saying, "This is a weird fucking movie" all the way through. I discouranged everyone I knew from watching it. Sorry you didn't get the memo.

The games are approximately ten and three-quarters times more coherent, even around the requisite "WTF?"-y horror moments, and they're 189375 times better-written. For one thing, it was a scary blood-cult to some dark angel, Samael, not "Our generic God hates unclean ppls!" For another, in the good ending, Cybil did not have to die very fakely at those schmucks' generic hands. -_- And the movie ending, I actually liked as being in the middlin'-bad game endings' spirit; they're just stuck in Silent Hill, even when they're not actually there. Or something. It made sense at the time.

Video games make bad movies because video game logic does not translate to reality very well.
