This is based on the 3rd game Dale, Nurses were in it and were "closer" to the design in the movies.
Oh god, I love the Silent Hill nurses. Most iconic part of the series. Looks like I'm headed for a wet-nightmare tonight.
*hand holding glass begins to shake*
But I'm not too worried by these. Their obviously just set photos so I'm not really convinced one way or the other.

I think we should be more worried about any Hollywood bastardization of the IP, fluidity of story-telling and acting.
If this movie fucks up...bets on the sequel will be produced by SyFy? ;)

The cobwebs look like the stuff you buy for Halloween. How movie-magic can make that NOT look like that, I know not, but now that I do know, it'll be hard not to think about the movie just being dudes on a set.
As long as it has the same vibe that made Silent Hill my personal pick for "most like the game" I'll still be excited for it even the story goes completely bonkers.
If I start hearing, however, that suddenly the otherworld turns into a fluffy white cloud covered with bunnies (and not bleeding, bunny-men costumes) then I won't be buying a ticket.

Yeah when actors talk to ppl like the director or whomever, they generally are more laid back. Im assuming that when the cameras are rolling, they won't be quite as cheery lol.

Yep, same with music videos. If anyone has ever been on one, you'll know how insanely boring it gets between recording/set change-over/actors and actress/artist makeup or wardrobe changes etc...

Dear Diary,
Dad took a trip to the set of Silent Hill and sat in some lame chair that looks like my brother when he takes a dump then had his picture taken with some nurse chicks that he probably wanted to do. I hate him so much.

If this was a Jim Sterling article, certain one's would already have burning crucifix's and torches, set on the war path.
Im going to say the same thing about this that ive said about the transformers films;
Stop comparing it to the original games (or cartoons in transformers case) and see it as a film in its own right, and you'll enjoy the film better cause you wont care about the comparisons

They have the right bodies, but those faces show that they're just using the Homecoming/first movie design again. The real SH3 nurses had actual faces, with long bob cuts and blood covered mouths.
Who wants to bet that they also changed Vincent and Douglas into girls, so that they now have to add in a few pointless scenes with some random dude just to compensate?
I'm still really excited for it, but I really don't know why.

As long as they respect Gans' and Avery's amazing vision for the first film we'll be all set. CANT.WAIT.
@Yataghan
Ya don't worry, that's what I meant by "closer" and the whole "bastardization of the IP"...which is going to be inevitable sadly.
I can totally see if this failed SyFy doing the sequel. Think about it...if they did it canonically, the 4th game would be so damn easy to make. All you would need to do is do a "spooky apartment" film....SyFy can do that...I think they still own a HD camera or two?...goddamn I hate them :'(

if you guys watch Deathwatch, the director's previous film (you can watch the whole thing for free on IMDb), it's actually VERY reminiscent of Silent Hill and in some ways far more faithful to the tone, theme, and imagery of the first game. This is the ONLY reason why I have hope for the new Silent Hill film.
@not a muppet
I forgot it was that director! He also did Soloman Kane, which was a lot of fun. Now i'm even more excited!

I hope you were joking. The movie in itself wasn't *terribly* bad. But it *was* an awful Silent Hill movie. Had it been an original IP, it would have been perhaps a passable mediocre "thriller" film, but to take the source material, completely fuck with it (names, genders) and then to randomly mix parts of 1&3 and then just steal some monsters from 2.. just generally left a bad taste in my mouth. Unfortunately I'm not particularly looking forward to this one either, though I will watch it, I'm just not expecting much. :\

You gave me a sliver of hope for the movie, though I don't want to get excited like last time, just to be left down again.

Nope, totally looking forward to it. It was closer in tune with the first 3 than the most recent games. And the cast + director + writer were all amazing. I don't think gamers will ever get more respectful treatment. I obviously hear and read the bad reviews, but I wont pretend to understand them. I think it was having Akira Yamaoka score the film that sent into the 'All Time Favorite' category for me :)

I'll be waiting for Pyramid Head to show up and dance a little jig...you know, as required by his contract.
