I can't get over how awesome I am now. I have to go buy a lottery ticket!
Anyone else feel impending doom? by Shan	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:01:26 PM
Don't want to sound negative but this is FOX we are talking about.

FOX strikes again. by oxfordruse	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:04:06 PM
"It's not the network, it's me". Yes. We all know how that one ends.
Joss needs to listen to Bush Jr: by fanboy71	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:05:56 PM
"Foolme, can't get fooled again!" When is he gonna stop trusting FOX. He's like Charlie Brown and that gorram football. Take Firefly season 2 to Sci-fi! THERE lies your hit series!
howed some scenes to David Lynch and he’s all, “whuh?” by ArcadianDS	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:06:21 PM
I laughed. Tomorrow, he's going to rewrite this update and have Harry repost this update in late October.

Dushku is my favorite. by fiester	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:13:49 PM
I will watch this for her (heck I suffered through Tru Calling for her). But I hope it's a good show too.
Oh Joss, you know your audience so well by Mel Gibsteinberg	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:14:35 PM
You knew the mention of co-ed showers would have every geek on this site raising their eyebrows and suddenly saying Doll-what? Yeah, what a subtle technique.
herc, do you actually write anything yourself? by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:17:03 PM
Or do you just post ads and let the real writers carry your fat arse. I mean really, fuck me fella...Any chance you can let merrick take over?
Will watch, rather more Firefly, sad but true by Stormwatcher	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:17:11 PM
I miss Fillion dammit! I want more Sci-Fi! Not Sci-Fi channel mind you, they suck, save for BSG, but seriously, give us another movie or something.
wheres the edit button by ArcadianDS	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:17:16 PM
"SHOWED some scenes to David Lynch..." PS: reason there's no edit - if you have to type a correctional post, thats 2 additional ad banner hits.
Also... by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:19:32 PM
If david lynch can't comprehend the script, then you're going to need a PHd in theoretical physics to understand the show. That guy simply isn't in our galaxy.
Once again, Joss loves him some ... by Mel Gibsteinberg	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:31:28 PM
hot female protaganists. Funny how he does that. Buffy, River (and Zoe, oh and Kaylee) and now Eliza as this Dollhouse chick. Seriously, its either a fetish with Whedon, or we are going to wake up one day to the news that Joss is becoming Jossefina, and also that he is taking experimental treatment to not only change his sex, but make him 17 as well.
SciFi Comedy Action? by fedrich519	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:32:24 PM
Do what now?
Recast Dushku with Maggie Q... by Mr. Profit	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:33:43 PM
She's hotter and can pull off this kind of a role. Dushku was only good on Buffy. Anything else she tried she wasn't as good. And has she done something to her face? She looks different.
Dr Horrible is not available on iTunes in the UK by newc0253	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:35:13 PM

Mel, It really wouldn't be so bad... by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:35:35 PM
If dushku could fucking act. Tru Calling. That's all I'm saying. She's got one expression, and it's the porn model kind. In fact that's not a bad idea; someone send her ass to bangbros so we can see where her REAL talent lies.

Uh oh... by photoboy	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:47:50 PM
I know Joss is being the good soldier and pretending it's all good, but he said he wasn't going to fall in love with the characters again and try to be more network friendly and it seems he hasn't exactly done that. Assuming Dollhouse is as good as Firefly, we can expect a bunch of great episodes followed by a big shafting from Fox when they cancel it.
Yeah, but Eliza won't show the goods by Mel Gibsteinberg	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:49:04 PM
She's a bit shy when it comes to actually showing off the ta-ta's, so even though she may express "porn-face" it's all a big tease. As for Whedon, this project definitely looks like another venue for him to do some cool stuff. The tagline "you can erase a memory, but can you erase a soul" is pure Whedon. Like the concept, will be curious what Fox will do if the show doesn't play huge right away. All it needs is just some mediocre numbers, something that Bones does, they don't seem to have a problem keeping that show around, and they don't do anything on that show.

It's cause of that fucking mormon grandma of hers. if we off that old bitch, and pay Eliza enough money, I'll bet top dollar we can get her on bangbus.

Mormon grandma, ha ha ha ha by Mel Gibsteinberg	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:58:05 PM
Really, she's part of that cult? Craziness, where'd you hear that one? Last I heard she was dating Brad Penny of the LA Dodgers, after he dumped Alyssa Milano. Apparently no one told him that he had that thing backwards, Duskhu is the poor man's Milano, not the other way round.
oh come on kai by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 04:58:50 PM
we're talking about ways we can break dushku's spirit and get her to allow herself to be DPed by the bangbos crew. Can you imagine that bitch with a cock in her mouth, one in her pussy, and one in her ass? it's what she was built for!
The tale of the mormon grandma by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:01:18 PM
She'd just done bring it on and went on to do jay and silent bob strike back, and originally she was written as a lesbian bad girl to go with ali larter, but she asked that it be written out because she didn't want to push it with her mormon grandma. As for Alyssa Milano, I'm kind of not into her since she got all old and crusty. I currently have a thing for rachel bilson - GOD I hope a home movie gets leaked soon.
Anyone notice... by Mel Gibsteinberg	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:06:10 PM
Whedon's penchant for hot chicks with big foreheads? It must be part of the casting contract that he forces on his talent scouts. Seriously it's true: Sarah Michelle - big ole forehead Summer Glau - big forehead Eliza Dushku - big honkin dickfore It's like his own insecurities of having his own massive slab of head above his eyes, has forced him to prove to the world that you can still be beautiful with a big damn forehead.
You think Gellar is cute? by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:08:32 PM
Dude...she has one eye lower than the other, a nose job gone wrong, and a pigeon arse. Hannigan MADE that show.
Not gonna work (well) by supertoyslast	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:08:50 PM
I was excited about this when I heard how dark and philosophical the original pilot was. But doing another pilot cannot help but undermine the (now) second episode. Either there will be one hell of a lot of exposition in the second episode (due to it being the original pilot) or it will be full of padding (due to scenes being reshot to take the place of exposition). Unless Fox backtrack on its commitment to show Dollhouse with fewer adverts and replace exposition with ads.
oh and by supertoyslast	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:09:32 PM
That website entry was incredibly badly-written.
BWAH HA HA HA HA! That is hilarious brown by Mel Gibsteinberg	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:09:46 PM
So the fact that she plays a sexpot, cat burgling, flatulent, stripping, cussing, hoe-bag doesn't offend old Mormon granny. But if she were to play a lesbian, well... Plus I can't see any Mormon ever seeing Jay and Silent Bob anyway, that flick was dirty as sin, soooo crude. That Mormon grandma would have seized up right there on the spot and cried out for her lord and savior Joseph Smith. No way she is seeing that movie anyway, so what the hell does Dushku care? What a hypocrite.
Geller's hotter than Hannigan by Mel Gibsteinberg	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:11:59 PM
But let's not argue about that, we gots to get Dushku nude and all sprayed down in creamed corn.
Well that's what I thought by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:12:39 PM
I think we should formulate a plan to break dushku's self esteem so we can get her on porn videos ASAP
we do need to get dushku in a DP bukkake party by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:14:53 PM
But we also need to get hannigan to split up from that fuck who played wesley. I can't see how you think gellar is hotter than hannigan though

If this is a hit, Firefly TV movies possible? by Drath	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:26:46 PM
I'm sorry, I'm kind of still aching from that hurt, FOX. You ripped away something I was really interested in, and Joss sounded just as in love with that as he does with this. It'd sure sweeten the deal if Firefly TV movies were a potential outcome of my support...
will never trust fox by Mr_X	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:27:40 PM
so many good shows not given the backing they needed due to some fucking exec
New First by Cobbio	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:29:26 PM
I'm actually glad they're shooting a new first episode because, as much as I dig Whedon, I found myself underwhelmed by the trailer. Just didn't grab me, but hopefully it'll work as a second episode. The first episode needs more zing, more action, and more character moments than what I saw in the trailer. So I'm glad a new beginning will ensue. I wish Joss good luck with it.
Remember the Lemon Party? by Mel Gibsteinberg	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:29:49 PM
I want a new pic called "Creamed Corn Party" and instead of old nasty farts, its Dushku, Geller, and Cuthbert all gobbling up the "creamed corn" from each other's ne-ne's. Gawd, Cuthbert, now there's another chic with nothing to offer but that bland porn face expression. One day she will realize she has no true acting chops what so ever, just a nice rack and goofy face, and her rack is slowly sliding south. It will be at that point that either Playboy will come knocking, or some straight to video National Lampoon nonsense asking her to jiggle her jugs for cash. Eitherway she is gonna break and give us the glory shot, I feel it.
Eliza wears the Magic Mormon Undies? by EvilWizardGlick	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:38:53 PM
She won't be stripping below the magical longjohns.
WHEDON/FOX WILL NEVER LEARN by Mullah Omar	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:40:09 PM
They already rearranged the order of the shows? Either Whedon made a lame pilot or Fox is repeating its past mistakes by meddling with Whedon's vision. Either way this is not good news, no matter how they spin it.
Reshot due to suckage. by EvilWizardGlick	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:40:13 PM
Every hollywood crony goes downhill. This may be worse than can be imagined. Wanna bet they do a switched bodies episode?
But evilwizard by Mel Gibsteinberg	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:40:26 PM
They come with patented snatch holes, along with bung holes, and sword of truth holes. The Mormon's still gotta crap, and do it anal, so they prepared their panties well.
well eliza came close... by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:43:35 PM
I mean if we can get her back for an NC-17 girl next door, we've got that bitch broken.
Did a Mormon chick in 81 by EvilWizardGlick	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:48:07 PM
So fucking drunk I can't recall if she had the magic undies or not. She was into the genealogy. This was before they started saving dead people. You ain't never lived until you done a big blondie mormon.
I've generally found... by floatybrownthing	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:48:17 PM
That mormons are only slightly less kinky than amish chicks. trust me. I've fucked both.
Also banged a chick spitting image of Jane Fonda by EvilWizardGlick	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:49:29 PM
Eighties exercise Jane. First women I had sex with who had six pack abs. What a freak.

Eliza wants more pussy by V'Shael	Jul 22nd, 2008 05:51:15 PM
And Fox will cancel this show so fast it will make all your Whedonite heads explode. You know this to be true.

Dude she worked out like everyday. Plus she was skinny to begin with. Rotten whore though. Hellacious fuck.

A man walks in to the internet... by V'Shael	Jul 22nd, 2008 06:05:24 PM
sporting a big black eye. "What's the matter Joss?" asks fandom. "Nothing" says Joss. "I just walked into a door again. Clumsy me. My hubby Fox, told me to watch out, but I didn't. (Whimper) I should have listened. (Sigh) This ... is ... totally ... my fault." (Now sobbing) "Dude" says the internet. "Seriously, you've got to leave this guy. He's never gonna change" (Tearful sobs) "But he LOVES me" says Joss.
Good news by Prior Walter	Jul 22nd, 2008 06:25:48 PM
The trailer looked awful. And cheap. Add in bad acting and I was nervous (Angel is my all-time favorite show, and Buffy is no. 3).

It wasn't Joss' choice to shoot a second pilot for Firefly... by Cash907	Jul 22nd, 2008 08:57:57 PM
but rather Fox insisting that they retool the second ep which had more action to be the pilot. Joss was perfectly happy with his pilot, and spares few words when discussing the matter in his audio commentary for the series on DVD.
Whedon had gotten cliche by Larry of Arabia	Jul 22nd, 2008 09:07:29 PM
"Winning at Great Cost." Nobody looses, nobody wins outright. Even worse the cost is always the death of a loved one that starts a downward spiral for the hero so they can win but be "forever changed." (SPOILERS) How cool would it have been if Dr. Horrible became truly evil and got the girl. No, he had to be "forever changed by the death of a loved one" like... Willow (Tara), Buffy (Angel, herself, Spike), Xander (Anya), Angel (Cordy), Wesley (Fred), the Serenity (Wash). I hope he has a new trick up his sleeves because I love his writing.
Larry: by ZeroCorpse	Jul 22nd, 2008 09:15:43 PM
"Joss has gotten cliche" then "I love his writing" And you don't think this sounds like a contradiction? He has always BEEN cliche. You're only just now noticing it. Soon, the brainwashing will be wiped away completely, and you'll question how you could ever say "I love his writing."
Dushku is tv poison by smackfu	Jul 22nd, 2008 09:16:46 PM
she was good as a supporting character on Buffy, but she's just too cold and standoffish to be the central figure of a show. Yes, she's very hot, but the one character she plays, the tough girl but she's not really tough it's just an act to hide how vulnerable she is, while great as a supporting character, sucks as a main character in the long run.
ZeroCorpse: by Larry of Arabia	Jul 22nd, 2008 09:28:06 PM
Ok, how about this. I like the way he handles dialogue. He plots arcs out well and their emotional peaks are handled in a realistic manner (for their genre's universe). However he falls back on the "oh let's kill a character that means a lot to the protagonist" far far too often to get where he needs to go with both the characters and the audience. Like almost all the time. There are other ways to get there. I'm now tired of this cliche, but I like his writing style enough to hope that he can come up with another trick.
I got a bad feeling on this one by TVguy4566	Jul 22nd, 2008 09:32:37 PM
Whedon and Dushku basically came up with this series' plot over a lunch. Sounds like it already lacks direction. A bit worried that Whedon is kinda doing this whole project by the seat of his pants.
Whedon better add a scene... by Nasty In The Pasty	Jul 22nd, 2008 09:55:34 PM
...with Dushku tied to a bed and gagged, Wrong Turn-style. And make it 20 minutes long. With plenty of writhing.

Yep, as much as I love Whedon's work the show will probably get cancelled after a few airings. Heard that Whedonites already have a Save Dollhouse petition going around.

I laughed, I cried by password.swordfish	Jul 22nd, 2008 11:55:41 PM
I grew as a person. Seriously, very excited for this. Love me some Whedon - I just hope he keeps his streak alive (of quality, not of being canceled).
Whedon's making light of it all, but... by WhoDis	Jul 23rd, 2008 01:02:07 AM
... the issues he is having with this really is like Firefly. I'm not crazy excited for Dollhouse, it just looks like Joss is repeating himself, and what's with the same look of the home base as Wolfram & Hart from ANGEL? Has Joss finally jumped the shark? Only time will tell. Wish Sci-Fi Channel picked up Firefly, especially with BSG out the door. What are they going to spend their money on? Another crappy B-movie starring Bruce Campbell? Spend some money, goddamnit.
I have to wonder by dvdhound79	Jul 23rd, 2008 01:25:54 AM
If he see's all these cancellations coming or is he blissfully retarded with the fun he has making them. Cause Fox needs to realize that his fan-base, fickle as they may be, needs time to grow.
Whedon has his own Universe for God sake! by deanbarry	Jul 23rd, 2008 03:55:57 AM
I hope Dollhouse as the same success as Buffy and Angel. I really do. Firefly was a fantastic show that got well and truly shafted! Given the opportunity, I'm sure he could craft another fantastic, well written piece of masterful wonderfulness. I wish you Monsters Sir Whedon.

That was hilarious... by Yeti	Jul 23rd, 2008 05:21:06 AM
Weird about the pilot, but whatever. Co-ed showers? Hopefully we get to see more of Tahmoh Penikett if you know what I mean and I think that you do. Yowza.
Creatively, it's not that big a deal by rock-me Amodeo	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:13:46 AM
I had to do the same thing on a project. When it was pitched, the concept was STRONG. Then we got to the execution, and all the little things that were in the proposal didn't quite make it to the first draft. Layman's terms: they didn't like it. They still loved the CONCEPT, but it needed a better first exposure to an unsuspecting world. So we backed the whole thing up, and made a "prequel" that wound up being the first part, and the first part became the second part, and that was that. Good on ya, Joss. The people that don't like you hate you. The people that like you love you. That's a Howard Stern demographic if I ever saw one. Work the ep 'til it works.
Let me guess... by menacingphantom	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:14:57 AM
Some episodes will be stand-alone missions and others will give us tantalizing glimpses of back-story and over-arching plot...and by the time it all incoherently tries to wrap up (assuming no cancellation) no one will care... That's exciting!
THis shit is going down! by fishpillow	Jul 23rd, 2008 10:15:15 AM
The last time Whedon ran out apologizing for some change the studio made (see Serenity being delayed from April to the dead end Sept) we all know how that turned out. This is the man offering brave face. Skip it....
Not a big deal by TotalFreedom	Jul 23rd, 2008 11:00:51 AM
Whedon's pilots have tended towards being kind of insular and catering to Joss's fanbase and I think he probably wants to make it accessible, which is smart because it's going to be tricky as it is to get people to watch a show called Dollhouse.
Larry of Arabia by Adelai Niska	Jul 23rd, 2008 11:04:08 AM
You forgot about Buffy (her mom), Angel (Doyle) (remember Doyle?), Collosus (Shadowcat), and Melaka Fray (Her brother, Loo). So, it's not like Whedon uses the same trick every time. not at all like that.

"gap between my style and their expectations"? by punto	Jul 23rd, 2008 11:34:11 AM
how does that work for a tv show? if the creator has a style that the network didn't expect, it's not a "gap", it's a potential for "we're stuck with 100 episodes we don't like" (and I don't think they'll let this go for 100 episodes). it's not like he'll just change styles (then he wouldn't be a creator at all). I don't understand why fox keeps buying from whedon, and why he keeps selling to them (well, I guess if you're stuck making youtube videos, you'll sell to anyone)
Larry and Adelai by hst666	Jul 23rd, 2008 12:35:26 PM
I disagree. Let's look at the deaths cited: Willow (Tara) In the first of several, I believe the actress, in this case Amber Benson, was leaving regardless. Buffy (Angel, herself, Spike) All resurrected almost immediately (if a season break counts as immediately) Xander (Anya) Actress leaving Angel (Cordy) Actress leaving Wesley (Fred) no excuse here the Serenity (Wash)no excuse here Buffy (her mom) Actress leaving show Angel (Doyle) Addict Collossus (Shadowcat) She isn't dead yet as far as I can tell and Melaka Fray (Her brother, Loo) Did not read You also forgot Gunn's sister and Book.

This will be shit by Nizzuts	Jul 23rd, 2008 03:27:52 PM
just like every other Whedon project.

I love my TB by Le Vicious Fishus	Jul 23rd, 2008 03:46:48 PM
Just thought I'd let you know.
I rather like the Whedon by Bob Dobbs	Jul 23rd, 2008 05:11:31 PM
most of his stuff is decent. It's his idiot Browncoat/Whedonite fans that annoy the shit out of me. But I hate Harry HeadShill too, so what do I know?
" (Anya) Actress leaving" by Prior Walter	Jul 23rd, 2008 06:59:18 PM
Well she died in the series finale, so yeah, she was leaving. As was everyone else.
Ugh by JediWuddayaknow	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:00:50 PM
Yeah. This'll be over quickly. I love Whedon's work, but fuck, man. Learn. Fox is shit.
How many times does Joss need to get assraped by Fox? by SG7	Jul 23rd, 2008 10:11:44 PM
Seriously. After the clusterfuck that was Firefly and his declaration to never return to Fox, here he is. WTF?

Of course. Okay, I'll visit. Can't resist the lure of cool people. But there better be one killer Apple-tini waiting for me...
FOX.... by kadayi	Jul 24th, 2008 01:34:46 PM
