Talk:Hush (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)

message: I removed the part about Hush being the last episode to have been awarded an Emmy. According to the Once More, With Feeling page, it was nominated, but accidentially left off the ballot. Jonas Viper 04:07, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

message: According to this episode, the Gentlemen are based on characters from fairy tales. Is this actually true? Evilgidgit (talk) 12:43, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the article only implies that they appear in a Buffyverse fairly tale. I'm not aware of anything recognizably like the heart/voice-stealing Gentlemen in any popular real world tale. Hqb (talk) 14:25, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

text: I haven't found it in a source. Have you seen it in a source? --Moni3 (talk) 04:27, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I haven't either, to my surprise, after watching both...  The Dark City evildoers, called "The Strangers," are an alien race who look like old men wearing long coats who float around silently, and steal & replace people's memories and change the city they live in.  Lippard (talk) 21:16, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

text: Similar characters have now been used in Venture Brothers--"The Investors" in the episode "The Silent Partners". Lippard (talk) 04:38, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I haven't seen these other works, so I'm taking on faith that The Gentlemen are similar, but a reliable source has to say it in order for it to be put in the article. --Moni3 (talk) 14:43, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Remind me: what had Riley witnessed? —Tamfang (talk) 23:47, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  What did the boyfriend know and when did he know it? 

message: Ha, I had forgotten that the last line spoken before The Weird is (Olivia) "That's enough small talk, don't you think?"
Not counting the scream, there's actually less than 15 minutes of talk by my measure — 5:04 in the teaser, 7:05 in the first act (up to Olivia's last line), 2:37 in the epilogue (then :20 of awkward silence).  A more generous measure is 12:34 before the Gentleman opens the voice-trap, then 3:34 between the breaking of the box and the credits, for 16:08 of possible speech in all.  So, "less than 17", okay, never mind. ;) —Tamfang (talk) 05:28, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The sources vary between 25 and 29 minutes of silence. The book sources say 29 minutes of silence. I didn't count the silence, but the episode ends at 43.44 and I rounded up to 44 minutes and subtracted from that. --Moni3 (talk) 11:59, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  how much talk 

message: : It took a few times to rehearse because the scene came out mistimed, in all "about 12 seconds" to complete because none of the actors could play off each other without the use of verbal cues and they all pantomimed over each other.
Er what? How many seconds does it normally take to complete a scene? Could "seconds" be a misunderstanding of "sessions"? —Tamfang (talk) 08:47, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It is seconds, but Whedon may have been using hyperbole. I don't know. That's why "about 12 seconds" is in quotations. The scene in question is about four to six minutes long. --Moni3 (talk) 13:04, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  More like hypobole. :P —Tamfang (talk) 04:42, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: That quote must be out-of-place. It takes hours to film a scene, not seconds! Is this on the commentary? I can listen to it and see what it seems to mean. Maybe it's sarcasm.--TEHodson 00:03, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  "12 seconds" 

message: We don't normally link to scripts. However, in this case, I'd recommend it. I presume viewers who can't read lips would like to know what the dialogue iswhen people first realize they are mute. samwaltz (talk) 22:32, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The script linked would have to be in a reliable source, not a fansite. I've seen the script on the DVD, but I don't know if reprinting it in full would be a copyright violation. Our linking to it would be just as wrong. Do you have a source in mind? --Moni3 (talk) 14:42, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Per WP:LINKVIO, to link to it, we would have to find a site that published it, and had permission to do so.  The last part of that might be the impossible find, though if such a site exists, I agree it would be helpful. Courcelles 20:26, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Mute script?

message: I was wondering if anyone would object to this being nominated for a Good Article. I want to ask first just because I'm not sure if the main editors to this article do not want that at this moment or what exactly (further improvements?). Moni3 was the main contributor (among others) to push this article to where it is now, Moni was able to get "The Body" and "Once More, with Feeling" to FA, and I'm sure this could also reach FA, but maybe nominate for just GA now. This is a really fantastic article and should definitely be recognized. Drovethrughosts (talk) 19:29, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Go for it. --Moni3 (talk) 20:47, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
