Silent Hill was... not a good movie...

[lazyfatbum]

sounds like a pretty good debate going on about the quality of the film from alot of different outlets... this must be what they meant by ..."multimedia".

But while the first SH had rediculous (badly translated) dialogue the 2nd, 3rd and 4th was done extremely well so I dont think you should blame the bad dialogue in the movie on the fact that the first game had bad dialogue which would have been avoided anyways if the original writers and top translators were on call from Konami to be there as advisors during the script phase. it's the director and more importantly the writer who make a good story... james cameron could write and direct a 3 hour movie about a snowball fight outside of school and it would be awesome, make trillions of dollars, because it would be well writen and have a talented director.

I'll have to see it just to see what all the fuss is about. Bad dialogue is actually hard to achieve nowadays, it's the story that's been lacking for several years now. Gee i wonder if it had anyything to do with the WGA strike, oh look another remake in the theaters, I wonder why.
