Well, for those that think Rogen is gonna prance around in green spandex and or a cape or something...Green hornet has traditionally worn a suit, an overcoat and a hat. Sort of like Rorschach from Watchmen. Only green. I dont think theres much need for them to "re-imagine" too much here.

But what about the mask? Will he wear something like the 60's show or closer to the serial. Maybe they will design something new? So, any theories on what he'll look like? Personally, i think they will have something that covers the entire face. His stubble on the latest spy shots seems to suggest it. Hey, it would make stunts easier too! :yay:
 
well we`ve already seen what Kato looks like and in my opinion thats closer to the 60s show...I guess it would make sense then to go the same route with the green hornet outfit. As for the stubble maybe this film will be a true origin story and maybe Britt Reid doesnt feel the need to keep smooth until he decides to put on a mask?
 
Or maybe they will go really old school and go with the 40s mask design, where it covered the actor's entire face? That would be cool.
 
Yeah, i was thinking something like this?

I could see this version working.
 
Unfortunately, they will probably only refer to the TV show design, so Rogen's double chin will most definitely show.
 
You guys have mentioned the FULL MASK & the face mask from the 60's show, but what about the brown ninja-style mask from the 30's & 40's?
 
Yeah the "scarf thingy", The full face mask is from the movie serials. There was another mask for the radio show i believe. It was also used in the comics.

You mean this, right?:

I like this too! Would be easy to make/conceal.

Heres another pic of it:

Check out Katos groovy goggles! :)

And...in action:

Heh...Look at the badguys hat flying off. POW. :)

However it reminds me of The Shadow and this could be why it changed to the fullface mask in the serials, years ago.
Maybe they wanted to avoid confusion/comparisons/lawsuits?

But...I gotta say...My favourite look for the hornet is the fullface mask.
It's the most logical of them all, since it covers his entire face.

Meaning he can't be properly identified. The Green Hornet could literally be ANYONE.

Something that gives half his face away would be kinda stupid in real life.
It's that old "Zorro syndrome" you know?

And the full-face mask could have a built in gasmask for his gasgun. And besides...I just think it looks COOL. It's a moot point now though. They are going with the 60s half-mask, so... Lets see! I thought seth looked pretty good in the spy shots that leaked out(and vanished just as quick). Liked the little pimpy hat! :)

Hey, as long as it's not something like:

Note: I really like the 60s half-mask too. So im not dissing it.
 
Hey, Some variations of the 60s half-mask:

This one conceals the face a little more. Pretty good.

And this one just looks cool. (thats why i posted it)

what do you mean they are going with the half mask?

spy shots of Rogen as Hornet?

where did you see this?
 
NICE!

WHOO HOO! ! ! !

all my fanboy dreams have come true!

THAT LOOKS GREAT!

YOWZA! ! ! ! ! !
 
what you have to understand about films IF YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT WEIGHT...

if a character is dressed enough, build & sometimes ACTING falls by the wayside.

i've been saying this for years...

look @ Bale in TDK. when he's in the darkness in that suit, can you really tell it's Bale?

You're lying if you think you can
 
Eh, no complains here man? I think he looks great so far. :) But keaton as batman is really a better example. I think thats what theyre going for here. I wonder how long til some sort of trailer :P
 
Are you serious? the majority of people have been complaining about this movie & saying they don't wanna see it or don't care OR EVEN the dreaded "Who's the Green Hornet?"
 
Well, i can understand people who is just cautious. I was specifically thinking about the trolls, like the 2 wiseguys on imdb who wants to boycott the movie...Trolls=Bums.
 
Or the dudes posting/trolling on the front page whenever there is a news item about the hornet. I swear, they are confusing the majority of the people that knows very
little/nothing about the character.
 
Seth looks good though he probably can never get rid of that slight double chin. (He's been chubby his entire life so I'm sure he did his best now at 26)
 
Seth is gonna rock this role! He looks really good in the costume. Even the haters have to give him some credit, he did work his arse off to get this fit for the role.
 
amen... he's gonna covert these idiots to the church of the green hornet!


i personally hope they go with a full face mask!
