I think it might be new!
ION: Joss is planning on doing many webisodes for Dollhouse.
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.
Somebody should let Nilly know about Whedontube, since she's avoiding the thread and hasn't seen part 3.
Yay Whedontube! Does anybody recognize the guy Dr. Horrible fist-pumps before he puts on the red suit? He looks so familiar.
Drew Goddard?
His name is Jonathan and he is the guy who lives in the apartment that they used for Dr. Horrible's lair.

how do you know that? Or are you just yanking my chain?
I have succumbed the the lure of Dr. Horrible swag. I had to get a Captain Hammer tee for my friend who shares his last name, but then I neeeded a Dr. Horrible T-shirt for myself and then I had to surf around the Jinx site and now I neeeed fuzzy 20-sided dice. *sigh* I guess it's time to win the lottery as the transmat beam is still only giving me liquids that smell like cumin.
He posts at Whedonesque, Laga. I'm not creative enough to make that up.
Whatever your views of Dr. Horrible, the end is still incredibly horrific.
Even if Penny was just some ideal non-person to Billy/Dr. Horrible, in the end, despite his full embrace of the Evil League of Evil, in the end, there he is at his blog, totally undone. And a part of me thinks that's even more awful than if she'd been a non-non-person to him. Maybe that's messed up, but if she was just some object, some ideal to be won/captured/obtained, and the loss of that ideal object devestated him, then I don't see anything/anyone else ever being capable of replacing her. In her non-specificness, she was everything, if that makes sense (it almost does in my head, so I'm running with it), whereas if he'd loved her for her, then her loss was a singularity, and there is still hope and love in the rest of humanity. But it was all wrapped up in this Penny person, and now that's/she's gone.
Juliebird, I think that if she was just an object to him, he wouldn't be so sad, he'd just find a new object. I get the feeling that he was trying to power through on the high of beating his enemy and the accolades and success, but found that it wasn't enough. But, that could totally be my romantic take on it.
