Is it just me or one of Penny's dresses in act 2 looks like Snow White's dress?
Also, I enjoyed act 2 more than act 1. And also listened to it on repeat for the better part of the morning.
Hey, when's the soundtrack will be released (there will be one, right?)? Because apparently I can't sing 2 voices at the same time. Not fair.
I've got another thoughts, but I have to work...
Edit: didn't know if that counts as spoiler or not, better white than sorry.
I liked Act II better than Act I. So. Much. Fun. He sporked himself!
Suddenly, I can't wait for the DVD. From the Master Plan:
And somewhat later, we will put the complete short epic out on DVD – with the finest and bravest extras in all the land. We’ll go into greater detail about that at Comiccon, but we’re changing the face of Show Friendliness a second time with that crazy DVD.
Remember when Cindy posted Jeff Pruitt's allegory about the kingdom and the knight? I wonder if Joss had that in mind when he was writing his Master Plan for this series:
1) Why, Joss? Why? Why now, why free, why us?
Once upon a time, all the writers in the forest got very mad with the Forest Kings and declared a work-stoppage. The forest creatures were all sad; the mushrooms did not dance, the elderberries gave no juice for the festival wines, and the Teamsters were kinda pissed. (They were very polite about it, though.) During this work-stoppage, many writers tried to form partnerships for outside funding to create new work that circumvented the Forest King system.
Frustrated with the lack of movement on that front, I finally decided to do something very ambitious, very exciting, very mid-life-crisisy. Aided only by everyone I had worked with, was related to or had ever met, I single-handedly created this unique little epic. A supervillain musical, of which, as we all know, there are far too few.
There's a entry in Matt Roush's TV Guide blog about Dr. Horrible (warning: spoils some casting) [link]
On the DVDs: We're actually going to do, in addition to the commentary, what we refer to as ‘commentary with an exclamation point'! A musical commentary that is a completely original musical, that is all commentary songs, and we're writing that now." As I gasped at that audacious notion, he continued: "We're just piling it on. We're like, we're going to make more fun of the idea of extras than anything else."
HA!
I am all over sparkly pink hearts for this show! And I kind of want to claim
"hand her the keys to a shiny new Australia"
as my tagline.
Do we know when the dvd will be out?
my favorite line(s) from Act II?
- And sometimes there's a third even deeper level. And that one is the same as the top surface one.
- Huh?
- Like with pie.
mostly i think it's the delivery.

The same thing with the

line. I spoiled myself by reading Jon's post, so I knew it was coming, but I still laughed. It's all in the timing.

Quickly, if they're smart. "Doctor Horrible" is a wonderful little trifle, but after the initial explosion of joy and excitement, I imagine the mostly fickle attention span of viewers will move on. Oh, the Whedon fanatics will all by it immediately -- and of them, there are many -- but Wehdon needs momentum to turn this silly and lovely little thing into a product that makes anyone any real cash.
