Hush think it could be done?
I think it would be a great character for fans but not for mainstream. Your opinions?
 
No.

Okay, okay. That was too vague.

No Hush.
 
Maybe its because never read the abomination that was Hush Returns, but I can't help but feel that if you take the very basics of who Hush is as a character and use him for, say, the fourth movie giving him and entirely different story, he could be extremely interesting.

Simply take somebody with a massive hate-on for Bruce Wayne, so much so that they have dedicated everything they have into spying on him, looking into his personal life, background checks, etc. and eventually finds out that Bruce is Batman.

In an effort to destroy Bruce he creates the persona of Hush, and creates some sort of plan to destroy Batman. Heck, if late enough in the Franchise, you could almost go the route of Hush by having him employ a bunch of the known Rogues.
 
There are older characters (Mad Hatter, Riddler) waitng to get a decent interpretation on screen only to get beaten to it by the third mystery villain in Loeb's who-dunnit world? Don't think so.
 
Unfortunately Mad Hatter is a 3rd string villain that probably won't be featured on screen. Only reason for hush was to create a thread for people to post their opinion. Hush will not make a screen debut it is nice to theorize with others.

I know...

but don't give WB ideas. :ninja:
 
If WB was smart they wouldn't listen to the fans. Us fans want all these random obscure stuff that are mostly bad ideas. But who says WB is smart...
 
I think he can work well into Nolanverse, what are other peoples thoughts about Hush?
 
No. His origin/motivation is laughable really and hes not really an interesting character, the Hush storyline worked because it utlilised practically every hero and villain in the Batman universe who were drawn by Jim Lee, and used the Jason Todd angle, those are non-factors really in a movie adaption.
 
You don't need to show every villian to bring Hush in, just enough to drive Batman on a series of investigations that apparently lead nowhere, so if Hush were the main villian, you could introduce minor villians along the way.

The origin isn't too bad, and it could be tweaked a bit to play into the existing BB/TDK style, like perhaps it's Harvey's brother or something.
 
i'd rather have martha wayne rise from the grave, jealous of bruces love for his father.
 
No hush. He's really not that great of a character. Black Mask>> Hush anyday.
 
I agree with just about everybody else.

Bring in Black Mask, Leave Hush out.
 
I really like the Hush story, but i'm unsure how it would fit in. We know from begins that Rachel was Bruce's only real friend when he was a kid. Fitting in Elliot may therefore be a problem.

I suppose they could use Rachel as Hush, Reese as Riddler, but that's a pretty big stretch.
 
I'd prefer they not use any characters tied to one specific story. Hush, Holiday, Phantasm, etc. I prefer to let Nolan create his own stories, using classic characters. Like TDK, sure, it had elements from a whole bunch of different stories, but as a whole it was completely original. How boring would it have been if it was just a straight adaptation of The Long Halloween? If we knew every plot twist that was coming?
 
The reason why I prefer Hush over Black Mask is because Black Mask's face gets disfigured, which I think is too similar to Two-Face.
 
I wasn't a big fan of Hush in his introduction. But Paul Dini is doing a brilliant job of rehabilitating the character and making him a compelling villain over in Detective Comics right now.
 
I voted "yes" simply because Hush was a character that they never even got right in the comics somehow (and they so COULD have if Loeb and f**ked up the ending so badly). I wouldn't mind seeing them use him in a film and not make him suck.
 
Would love to see Hush or Black Mask..

But Batman is at such a low point right now to have either one.. Hopefully the 4th though. or maybe a small part in the 3rd from one of the two. Would deffiently bring back the parents factor and it would be amazing to see the grave scene .
 
woah, woah woah.... I don't remember making this thread.....I hate hush.....
 
I hate Hush so much... I have no idea why people find him interesting...
