So, I know this will never Happen, but is there any one who would be intrested in a Live Action movie about The Question (Vic Sage).

I mean he is a philosophically complex Superhero and has a lot going for him. to most people he seems to be crazy. His entire movie could be about a conspiracy theory no one believes in but is really going on, so it up to him to find the Answers and stop the conspiracy. Not only that but you can also incorpated the question's zen like phoilosophy in to the flim.

Would any one else be even remotly intrested in seeming a Question flims starring Vic Sage?
 
If he's handled like he was in "JLU," then hell YES!

The Question was easily one the greatest characterizations in "JLU" ... LOVE him!
 
I'd love to see one. WATCHMEN might make it a more likely possibility. Or it might mean we'll never see one, as the Question/Rorschach tie is always going to be present.

I agree. Rorschach is pretty much a doppelganger of the Question anyway, so maybe it will open up WB to doing a full feature about a similar character. I thought he was great on Justice League Unlimited.
 
I would love for David Fincher to direct it but he says he wants to move away from the gritty crime dramas.

Jeffery Donovan as The Question FTW

The Question inspired Rorschach but Im pretty sure they are still different, not mirror images

("In "The Question" #17, Vic picks up a copy of Watchmen to read on a trip, and initially sees Rorschach as being quite cool, but after he is beaten up trying to emulate Rorschach's brutal style of justice, he concludes that Rorschach sucks.") http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Question_(comics)

just though you should know about this little fact. I think it would be funny to see that added in to The Question Movie.

I think they are pretty different, but I read the Book DC UNIVERSE: HELLTOWN, witch is the Question's Origion Story. He's is still a little bit crazy, I mean He Hi Jack's A School Bus with the Children still on it has a act of vigilatiesm, but he isn't has Crazy has in he was in the JLU Cartoon witch he will need to be for the flim to work. So there is Quite a bit of differance even with the simalarites.
 
I definately wouldn't mind seeing a movie. I've thought about making a fan film but never really did. Here's all I got done as a script. How does it look?



The Question

Mayor of Hub City is show giving speech camera pans upward to show an assassin on top of a nearby building. Scene cuts showing the Question entering this building. As the Question walks into building a secretary asks, “Excuse me sir, can I help you?”The Question keeps walking as if he doesn't hear her. He approaches an elevator. The secretary says, “Uhm sir, you can't just come in here, you'll have to wait”. He still ignores her. She says, “stop!” as he presses the elevator button. He pays no heed. The secretary yells , “security!” and pushes a button, a siren goes off. The Question is waiting for the elevator door to open. A security guard runs in towards the question. Without even looking behind him, the Question nonchalantly lifts his forearm up and hits the guard knocking him out. The elevator opens. “Going up” the question says. Inside the elevator, elevator music is playing and the Question is perfectly calm, tapping his foot or twiddling his thumbs. The elevator arrives at the top floor, dings, and opens. The Question walks out onto flat rooftop just as assassin is pulling trigger of sniper rifle. The Question, wasting no time, pulls out a 9.mm. In slow motion the assassin is shown pulling trigger and shooting a bullet in slow motion. As his bullet is in the air, the Question quickly fires his pistol. In slow motion the 9.mm bullet is shown flanking/side-swiping the rifle bullet which causes both of them to hit a nearby building. The crowd panics after hearing the gunshots. The assassin turns to see the Question. “wha-why you piece of-!”The assassin begins to point his gun at the Question. The Question hits the assassin in the forehead with the butt of his gun and the assassins gun flies out of his hand. The Question puts his pistol away. “Who hired you?”, the Question asks. “I don't know what you're talkin' about”, replies the tattered assassin. “Answer the Question!!!”, the Question says in rage. “ No one hired me”, the assassin says, “ I did it for myself!”. The Question picks him up by the collar. “Maybe you didn't hear me clearly”, says the Question, “ who hired you?”. “I swear, I don't know what you're talkin' about!”.
The Question then lets go of the man's collar and drops him over the side of the building. The assassin yells. The Question calmly steps on the assassin's shoelace, the only thing keeping him from falling to his death. “ Wanna talk?”, the Question says?








Thats all I got right now. You like it?
 
yea it they keep it a thriller/crime drama setting i think it could work out to be a good film. And like others have pointed out if watchmen is recieved very well and fans/general audience like that roschach guy it could help question to maybe happen, if not a movie maybe a tv series would be a very easy one to pull off.
 
I'd prefer a TV series. There are a lot of great characters from his solo series in the 80s that would fit better in a TV format.
 
A Question TV show would probobly work out well.

I dont remember him hi-jacking a bus. I remember him getting hit in the skull with a sledge hammer and Batman visiting him in the hospital and sending him to Richard Dragon to get trained (that was in O'Neal's run I believe). I figure you could cut out the middle man and just have Dragon meet him in the hospital.
 
That would be genius. The JLU's Question is the only one I know, and was well created. If they did make a movie or tv show, I would miss the Huntress, but I would still see the movie or show if they made it. For sure.
 
I think she has a better chance of showing up in The Question than she does in Batman.

I finally figured out why that is. It is because in his comic witch is Question #3 he doesn't hi-Jack the Bus, he just stops the bomb that was involved. But in the Novel I have he does take the bus to try and free the kids. The Question crashes the bus in to a police station, over the county line outside of the mayor's jurisidiction, and yes the Novel was written by O'Neal.

I haven't read in of the comics, just the book Helltown witch has some differance from the comics, but it mostly copy's O'Neal's run.

all my knowlege of the question's comics comes from here.
