    I just realized that Angela’s and Eddie’s versions of Silent Hill are the exact opposite of one another. Angela’s world is full of flames and Eddie’s is icy cold.

      Angela and Eddie as characters represent two ends of a spectrum between internalizing and externalizing. Despite never having any kind of association in the game, they parallel each other thematically

      ​@@watching7721 read somebody else said, Angela is giving up, while Eddie is giving in. I think that's very apt and probably right on the money. James can mirror both of them: giving up to get the In Water ending, and giving in to get the Maria ending.

      I just love In Water ending because of how well it is acted out and directed in the remake specifically. With the way James is saying the things he is saying and the way he looks in the mirror at the back seat and then slowly glances back (and his eyes, I'd never thought I would say this about a videogame character, but those are the eyes of a completely broken man who had lost any hope and will to continue with his life). Yes, it's crashing my soul, but it's so well made. In the OG I've always preferred the Leave ending though.

      ​@@arcticwolf6402 Calling out nostalgia without presenting any other argument to support the new over the old is just an example of reverse bias. It's getting exhausting to see this term repeated in these discussions, often just to dismiss differing opinions. The argument seems to be: "This is new, it didn’t have the same production limitations, so it must be better." But that’s not necessarily the case. This viewpoint disregards the creative merits of both teams, implying that the ultimate experience, whether good or bad, is determined solely by technology and budget. Creative decisions differ, leading to varying results. The acting, for instance, isn't automatically better because it uses motion capture; if poorly executed, it could be worse. I'm not saying the new one is bad; I’m saying that just because it's new doesn’t inherently make it better. People have more reasons to appreciate the older version than simply "nostalgia glasses."

      The line "Thats what I thought " says that she had this kind of converations before ,and she knew its all just talk.

      James is also a creep to a sexual degree. Invading Angela's space in their first two meetings, which changed after fighting her dad. Understandable since James has so much repressed sexual energy that he would be inadvertently creepy, trying to touch her, not backing off, mostly because he doesn't really care about her. He doesn't want to hurt her, but he's a weirdo.
      And Angela knows that. That why she confronts him here. He's so broken that Angela has to demean his attempts to help her. No one can save or understand her, especially not James

    • @Spiralpaladin
      @Spiralpaladin 2 місяці тому +32

      @thoet7270 Indeed. Repression born of frustration, stress, and abuse from his wife when he just wanted to help her. The poor guy is so broken, he has no way of reading the room, or seeing how what he does isn't as good as he thinks it is. He thinks he has good intentions, but I don't think he really knows that for sure. He keeps telling himself he wants Mary back, but his time with Mary, and seeing how vulnerable Angela seems, has made some of that repressed sexual frustration emerge in ways he's not even fully aware of. Hence why Angela calls him out. She knows sexual frustrations in men, as she suffered the worst of such at the hands of her father, and possibly brother too. Something that James, as you said, can't possibly understand.

While someone having dulled affect, responsiveness, and reaction times is also an accurate presentation the original is also reasonable for such a complex condition.

The "Thank you for saving me bit I wish you hadn't" and "I deserved this" sound significantly more distressed and despairing to my ear.

It wasn't JUST trauma it was mind altering trauma that ruined her life and her voice in the original portrayed that. Every character except Laura had one of these unique talking patterns based off their mental problems. James had a disassociated tone because he was closing himself off emotionally and unable to express even fear or trepidation at that point. Eddie was in a psychosis and Angela was having mania mixed with bipolar outbursts due to her broken mental state. Maria is supposed to switch between Mary and her's demeanor with a verbal cue. These aren't present in the remake and it's an overall loss.

Angela is looking for her mother in Silent Hill because it's theorized she thinks she lives there, but that's left ambiguous. When James asks her if her mother lived in Blue Creek apartments in the mirror scene Angela freaks out because she thinks James is stalking her, as she has androphobia or deep fear of men, not only because of her experience with her father and brother, but also the men at her part-time job (that she was forced to take after her mother left) started to sexualize her and even grope her and objectify her.

    • @Absurdword
      @Absurdword Місяць тому +6

      In many ways, James and Angela's paths cross as a test for each other. For James, meeting Angela is a crucible of judgement, punishment, and atonement. For Angela, James represents a chance for salvation and to believe she is worth saving. Ultimately, you have to *allow* salvation in. In this way, Angela fails her test, too entrenched in the fire of her trauma and suffering, and rejects James' empathy out of her sense of worthlessness; that she is *beyond* saving. This shows James the limits of his empathy, and that some things cannot be changed, which in many ways mirrors the limits he reached with Mary, in not truly being able to heal her pain.

    can't really understand people who hate VA in remake. like, they gave this scene another colours. in original scene Angela feels more crazy like she definitely lost her mind, that's why she says her "would you take care of me...?" so mockingly to James. You can feel it, because after these words you can see that they both stand with kind of distance between them. in remake, she feels more tired, like it wasn't just something sarcastic in her words. she was so tired, that except of some kind if sarcasm in her words you can also hear some kind of hope, like she really tries to believe that his words were not as hollow as they really were. like she tries to grab the last hope, that he really would save her on a second. you could see it in visual too, cause she tries to get nearer to him, but only James tries to save the distance between them. that proves that he doesn't really feel her pain. i like VA in remake more because of that, it suits her story more, it really makes her just very exhausted girl because of her pain. she is not as crazy, as lost, so it feels much better than her madness in original. she's not mad, she's in really big pain

    I find her new delivery of the "Or maybe you think you can save me? Will you love me? Care for me? Heal all my pain?" Very realistic.
    As somebody that has also suffered abuse (not as bad as Angela of course) i recognize that tired, almost lifeless tone that sound like you can erupt into laughter or into an angry screaming match in any momment. Its like "We both know that you are not going to help me, we both know that its already to late for me. At least let me alone. If my family didn't even loved me, why would you, a stranger be any different. Dont be silly". But you still feel that behind that resentment, deep down she wants James to say something, to do something, she is giving him her final call for help (in the orginal scene, she is the one that gets closer to james, but this time is more subtle). But at the end, that small hope dies too because James is to broken to help anyone, and she just gives up, returning to hell, her comfort zone

  • @SteelBallRun1890
    @SteelBallRun1890 2 місяці тому +13

    The only criticism I have of this scene is when she asks James if he will "save her, love her, heal all her wounds/pain".
    In the original, the camera becomes a POV, it's meant to have YOU the player being talked down by Angela. It's the "I can fix her" mentality being put into test. Because yes, someone with that much trauma and baggage isn't some pet you can just feed and love, its a damaged person, and like with normal people, they can only get better starting with themselves, if they choose to want help, its not yours, or James' choice to make.
    In the OG it also ends with a cut of James looking down in shame, without an answer to all these hard questions.
    Other than that its a solid scene, Bloober did good.

      ​@@Skullkan6Exactly. Her sarcastic remarks at James makes it all the more hard hitting which showcases not only James' hollow sympathy for her and his empty platitudes, but her reluctance to be saved or even helped, since she's completely consumed by self hatred for something she had not control over as an innocent child. Her mood swings and overall disjointed demeanor really sold how mentally damaged she is. I get why people would say this is more fitting, but Angela is supposed to be in some sort of manic bipolar episode, not just depressed.

    Here, Angela simply responds to his question. But in the original, she takes a look around at the scenery, giving the sense that she has truly become so accustomed to her burning surroundings that she doesn't even pay attention to it anymore until it is mentioned.
    Her world being aflame wasn't worth mentioning or even paying attention until she realized James also could see it. The stillshot being agonizingly long from James perspective also work much better.

    This time around I definitely view her arc with a bit more of a happier edge than previously perceived. She definitely reaches clarity way before James does and I view her ascent up the stairs and acceptance of the situation as a possible escape from the purgatory/hell she's found herself in.
    She never came to Silent Hill to continue on in a life that hasn't done her any favors, she only ever came to find peace, representative of her looking for her mother at first. I like to think she found it in that stairway.

    One detailed I really like to the Remake Angela is her pouting expression. She’s clearly a grown woman, yet her face almost looks like that of a scared child. Couple this with her regressions when she’s triggered or stressed, and the experience really comes together to paint the portrait of a broken child trapped in the body of a woman. IMHO, the remake made her character FAR more impactful. And her voice actress is perfection, capturing each line’s melancholy and heartbreak.

    In the original, the cutscene fades back to gameplay and you see Angela slowly walking away towards her demise... the player is unable to reach her because of the flames, and has time to realize by himself that she is a lost cause and James has to let it go. In the remake, it's all a cutscene, and James immediately turns back to reach the door, being like: "well I'm glad that's over with, she was really annoying" (3:33). Such a downgrade.

    It’s heartbreaking because it’s so grounded in reality because everyone can picture someone who actually went through what she’s went through and put themselves in their shoes and try to understand and sympathize, yet know that outside of kind words and emotional support, there’s nothing anyone can do to truly help them. Very disturbing because this feels too real!

    I always like how they handled the degree of “sin” between Angela, Eddie, and James.
    Angela acted in self-defense after years of abuse, she really doesn’t deserve to be tormented but the shame and guilt has landed her in Silent Hill.
    Eddie is an insecure psychopath, justifying murder because of the verbal bullying he’s faced throughout his life. He’s insecure and paranoid and 100% deserves to be in the town.
    Then you have James, whose sin is the most gray whereas Eddie and Angela are pretty black and white. He killed Mary both because he’d come to hate her after enduring her verbal abuse and sacrificing his own happiness to take care of her, but also legitimately loved her and didn’t want her to suffer such a prolonged, painful death. They were both miserable and powerless, but does that justify James’ actions? Idk. It really is a debate for an ethics class if Mary’s inevitable death and her verbal abuse towards James justified what he did (I’m not condoning murdering terminally-ill family members). James’ sin is situated right between Angela’s and Eddie’s when it comes to “was it justifiable?”
    It just goes to show that the town really doesn’t give af about the crime, it just exists to give you a broken piece of mirror and let you decide what to do with it - use it for reflection, or use it for harm
