Could Roger Avary make the first truly great video game adaptation? He certainly has the right property!!!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I remember the very first time I saw a computer as something other than a boring word processor. As a kid I was at a family friend's house and their folks had a computer that had more than Pong on it. It had CASTLE WOLFENSTEIN.

I remember that blew my mind, followed by DOOM blowing my mind in that I could play with other people... on different computers! Holy shit!

SILENT HILL producer Samuel Hadida has the rights to RETURN TO CASTLE WOLFENSTEIN and he's given the property to Roger Avary to write and direct.

I'll be talking to Avary very soon about this property. I'd expect we'll see WW2 crazy tongue-in-cheek horror/sci-fi/action. Now, that's the kind of flick I'd like to see.
