"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

but also hope a movie of version of the post-series Angel and Buffy comics is not one of the things he will use his new power for.

He wouldn't do that. The only franchise that he seems to feel like he got gypped on was Firefly. That's the one that he still thinks up storylines for.

I really think the only reason he did Buffy S8 in comic form was because he really had no outlets for his writing at that point. Dollhouse had been canceled and he was off the Wonder Woman movie and it was starting to look like his career had stalled.

Actually, I think he does some of his best work when he's working with limited budgets like Dr. Horrible, or the second season of Dollhouse. I expect his Shakespeare movie to be a pip.

But I love him best in long form media of TV, and my dream would for him to have an HBO development deal where he could take his time and craft 13 episode seasons for a five season run of whatever tickles his fancy. Giving lots of work to Alexis and Amy and Enver and Olivia and Gina and Nathan of course.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Really, is there a better place for a 15 y.o. boy to find girls to kiss than at a Quinceanera?

Hee! No, no there is not. Quinces are fun as hell, and those girls dress and dance HOT, yo! My girls were all darling at their quinces, but they are quite the party. And Emmett is a handsome young man; heh, if he can dance, he is GOLDEN.

Oh, that would be lovely. I've been really happy with Cabin and Avengers, and it's so nice to see. It's like "Yay, underdog FTW! WOO!"

I say "Go Joss; for all your flaws, I still love you for all your massive wins."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Basically. He's not perfect, and he's not the Best Feminist Ever, and maybe he can even be a dick in real life sometimes, but his work has always been My Thing, and it brings people together in a wonderful community, so keep on keeping on, man.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Wow, reading my news headlines shows Avengers crossing over $1 Billion in 19 days time.

Or as this reads to me, "Joss has serious Hollywood leverage now."

He'd better direct Avengers 2, damn it.

Also, seriously, seeing his name in the credits made me SO HAPPY.

I threw the horns. Or pumped my fist in the air. I can't remember which. Just pure glee.

I have painted the bedroom ceiling (well, 1/4 of it.) Now I'm just hoping that it was one of the rooms I just used the kilz and don't have to go back and do a coat of the flat white. Because I remember now how much I hate painting ceilings. Even more fun with 2 goofy cats who like to be in the same room with you....
