avvie said:So, my assistant gave me "Zoolander" to watch about a month ago. It's been sitting on my desk ever since. Today she mentioned it again, and she's a really cute teutonic hottie with titanic ta-tas, so I finally watched it tonight. There were a couple of laughs, but overall I feel like a eunich. I actually sat through it knowing full well that it wasn't going to help me tap that ***.

Gunny said:Have you played the Silent Hill games?
I thought the movie was ok, but getting a perspective from someone who hasn't played the games would be interesting.
PitBull said:Agreed. Wrong turn 2 was not bad. Wrong turn 1 sucked big time.

avvie said:No, I haven't played them. But I love all of these video game movies...Aeon Flux, the Resident Evil series, Doom...it seems that a bunch of pimply-faced nerds programming games are better storytellers than what Hollywood has to offer.
Concerning SH, I was intrigued with it's concept of what Hell is, and it's take on religious fundamentalism. I know that for the gamers PyramidHead was just a bit part in the movie, with little purpose.
I'll comment further later when I've had more coffee :yes:
avvie said:No...I'd like to hear that.
I read in a gamer forum that PH represents the husband's conscious or something, and eventually a twin appears and they kill each other.
Or something like that.
In Silent Hill 2, his existence is directly tied to James Sunderland's subconscious[1]; James' repressed anger and desire to be punished for the death of his wife are what compels Pyramid Head to pursue him. Pyramid Head functions as both an executioner of Maria, but more importantly, as the constant tormentor of James. Watching Pyramid Head repeatedly murder a highly eroticized doppelgänger of his late wife brings a great deal of grief to James, thus completely satisfying his masochistic desires. Once these desires are fulfilled, Pyramid Head's power over James is removed. This is evidenced in one of the game's final scenes, where just before battling two Pyramid Heads simultaneously (one as punishment for killing Mary and the other for killing Eddie), James gains insight into his situation, admitting that he needed them because he was weak, and that he has no further use for them. It is only after James asserts this that the Pyramid Heads eventually impale themselves on their own spears and thus freeing themselves of their roles (it's mentioned that they are both punisher and victim of crime).
