Title: I just saw
Post by: Bonknuts on April 23, 2006, 06:34:55 PM
... Silent Hill. <I can't believe it's not butter>  This movie was awesome.

 I usually dread game to big screen adaptations, but this is the best attempt by far - Resident Evil 1 was pretty good, RE2 was lame(had some funny parts though), and Doom3 was laughable.

 Grant it I haven't played much of the games in the series, but I pretty much know the jist of the series from my friend telling me about it. From what I can tell, this story takes place before the first Silent Hill game on PS1.

 Anyway, the movie didn't have the typical Hollywood bullshit 'in a can' (Tony Scott, George Lucas, Spielberg, etc).

I totally want to see this movie. I also thought that RE1 was a decent film for Hollywood standards ... RE2 was disappointing. Never saw Doom -- I don't even remember it being advertised.

Dude, I love the Super Mario Bros. movie! (even though it's not like the game much at all :D )

What would you say the movie is like in a nutshell.  Is it spiritistic, or just more of a Twilight Zone?  I've heard the first 3 Silent Hill's are pure Twilight Zone, with the 4th one being spiritistic, which I don't like. :P

Yeah, but you probably liked it because of its cheese factor  :lol:

 It's a little bit of both, but it sure is disturbing :shock:  I can't believe it was just an "R" rating. I'm definitely buying the "unrated" version when it comes out :D

Speaking of cheese, have you seen Robot Chicken on adult swim? Last sunday there was a clip about, "I can't believe...  this is Ron Jeremeys butter?!".

I blew coffee out my nose.

I have only seen Robot Chicken once but man that's awesome seeing Ron Jeremy in a Mario costume! :D

By the way, two other great cheesy game based movies are Double Dragon and Street Fighter... especially Double Dragon :) .
