Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Thanks!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Entertainment Weekly said that Joss was done with it.

I thought it was that he was done with Firefly (the TV series), but not necessarily movies.

When Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon looks back on 2005, he can take comfort in knowing that his film-directing debut, the sci-fi Western Serenity, resurrected his canceled-too-soon cult classic TV series Firefly, and was also one of the year's best-reviewed movies. ''I should say I'm above reading reviews,'' he says. ''But I would be lying.'' Alas, Whedon's fond memories are also tainted by Serenity's status as a franchise nonstarter; despite Universal's best marketing efforts, the film only mustered $25 million. ''In the end, it was what it was: a tough sell,'' says Whedon, adding that it appears the Firefly saga has reached its conclusion. He has no regrets — and he's moving on. He's currently penning a Wonder Woman flick for Warner Bros., and has the thriller Goners set up at Universal; he'll direct whichever...

Entertainment Weekly said that Joss was done with it.

And then Joss read the EW article, came onto Whedonesque as an avenging angel, called Nathan a turnip and mentioned that his remarks were taken out of context.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Simon beat me to it. Not surprising.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Right. Which is why I'm skeptical at yet another article that has Joss saying it's over.

Other than the EW he's already contradicted, which one did?
