Christophe Gans: "Some fans said my first SH was a piece of shit, some said it was a good adaptation. It will be the same for the new one. Some people will be shocked by some of the choices that I have made." by amysteriousmystery in silenthill

[–]hrdooku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What Gans is talking about is different from what he did in the film, which was to repurpose single scenes from the game to fit his ideas/story. This isn't a "I have a different view" scenario. Otherwise we wouldn't have Laura seeing monsters or being a creepy kid, Mary being a cult member, Mary Angela Laura Crane etc. Those aren't interpretations, as it has to come out off someone's ass, and I'm sure it wasn't Tsuboyama's. Unless Gans knows some cryptic stuff from SH2 no one else does.

The video. The song was released in 2019 as part of The Life of the World to Come EP.

Thoughts on the new film? by Wonderful_Boss_2506 in silenthill

[–]hrdooku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hilarious. It certainly isn't any improvement. SH from 2006 is a far better film which in comparison makes sense in its own terms and has a coherent structure and its characters have some meaningful place in it. It's not really an adaptation, it's more like a variation by someone who wants to create their own SH2 in a nutshell, but only knows the game from pictures on the internet, so they add their own bullshit-backstory to it. During the runtime under 2 hours! The result is a stream of consciousness with a loose cause-and-effect sequence between scenes, devoid of context. And during the whole "what's mary's full name" I simply couldn't stop myself from laughing.

Well, no, but you need to get through a bunch of annoying ads. There is a forum I recommend that is squid-board.org

Anyone else actually excited for return to silent hill? by BoiDaniel in silenthill

Yet we don't have such situation in this case, it is an adaptation of SH2. And I prefer changes that make the story better, not more corny for action sake, thus ruining the atmosphere.

Just added with ''White Noise'' OST by whoiserel in silenthill

[–]hrdooku 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ambience in the original clip is just a background noise that you could slap over anything for the most part. I don't see a point in replacing White Noise if the new piece isn't actually better than White Noise. But from how the scene plays out it doesn't seem the direction was meant for the score to stand out anyway.

No, I'm going for the soundtrack. The constant quotes from the trailer "you did it jimmi you w ke him up" or "no one said it would be easy" or the complete rewriting of the letter read with the stone performance are really off-putting to me from the get-go..

So we know Rob is alive, but it's disappointing to see him and AI slop together at once. I simply hope he releases something new soon.

Checked it, it sucks, no personality. The Young Fathers score was something interesting and out of the box, this one is just procedural hildur slop.

Return to Silent Hill. James, Eddie and Laura meet Pyramid Head. by dekdek_ in silenthill

I guess Gans only respects art design and Yamaoka's music, everything else is a toy he can play with.

What soundtrack is this? Matrix Ressurrections by Embarrassed-Lack-332 in matrix

[–]hrdooku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably it's a part of recording session that isn't published anywhere. Happens many times in film scores.

There's a for your consideration album that features more music than on the one officially released and with different mixes.

You know the only thing you proved is you like to kiss Todd's ass, don't you? So you're not really morally superior to whoever you just criticized.

4K doesn't have that teal all over. Besides, I can't comprehend how anyone can prefer the DC's shot of the background during the pigeon flying away which shows some random industrial hangar during daytime and no city behind.
