We've chatted about the Silent Hill 2 film in the past, and last thing we heard, we only knew that Silent Hill director Christophe Gans would probably not be coming back for round two (which is a shame, as I think he captured the feel of the SH universe pretty well). According to Bloody Disgusting, it seems like there's some possibility that Roger Avary may take on making Silent Hill 2.
According to an interview on ChuckPalahniuk.net with author Bret Easton Ellis, Avary's name came up in relation to a film adaption of Glamorama, one of Ellis' most popular novels. Ellis replied "He's going to be shooting Silent Hill 2. As far as Glamorama, it's just very hard to get the money to make it." Bad news for Glamorama -- and that would make a great film -- but this sounds like a promising possibility.
For those of you unfamiliar with Avary, he worked on most of the key Quentin Tarentino films (Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs and True Romance) as well as penning the first Silent Hill script. Silent Hill 2 is a big story to take on, though. I wonder if Avary can do it justice?

And @ pascuz46-If you never played the games, how do you know you don't like them?
Example: the seen in the movie where rose is first confronted by pyramid head comming through a door in the background, and hes dragging a dead miner....as she runs away, the camera takes an over-head shot, and you see that theres this hell-forge looking thing going on below the sheet metal "path" that she is walking on, im sorry way too CG, the silent hill games got it right by having everything in the game totally engulfed by darkness, hell even in the "light" silent hill they still gave you the same feeling because tyou could only see like 5 ft in front of the player character.
The mind boggles as to how much someone can fuck up a copy-paste job. Why fuck up a perfectly good license if you're just going to copy every other shitty horror being made at the time? It boggles the mind.
