luciazephyrQUOTE OF THE DAYMILLENIUM
"It wasn't like Buffy was... Well, it was a little sad and depressing. But it was funny. Especially when people died. And a lot of people do die in this episode. That is kinda, I think, my stamp."
-Joss Whedon, here

I love my writerman. *uses her Joss icon*
-Luce
PS: Interesting fact- the text in the icon is a quote from Nathan Fillion, the actor who plays Malcolm Reynolds in Firefly-Serenity. Nathan was asked at a con if Joss was God (jokingly) and after his funny answer, Nathan said:
"You know what, I had a meeting with Joss Whedon when I read the treatment for the script. It wasnt a script so much as a play by play of what was going to happen in the script. And I had so many questions. I was very into it. I got to the part in the script where he [Mal] shoots the horse and the horse falls on the lady and then there's a gun being held to River's head and then Mal comes in and BAM, there's not a word said. I was in love. I had so many questions. I had asked all these questions and Joss had an answer and a story and layers upon layers for every question I had. He created a universe. It was all laid out. There was nothing left to guess. It was all laid out. So. If you create a universe, are you not God?"
HOW AWESOME IS THAT?

Date: 2007-02-20 03:24 am (UTC)But, no -- seriously? The writer of "Sports Night" vs. the writer of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"?!
I have seen Joss Whedon maim. I have seen Joss Whedon kill. At night I check my closets for Joss Whedon.
Aaron Sorkin's got all that crazy hallucinogen strength, you know, but Joss ... Joss is scrappy.

Sorkin will fuck up your life, but Joss will shove a giant toothpick in your chest cavity after you've achieved the most amazing feat in the fuckin' 'verse, after you've endeared yourself to millions ever though there is no goddamn reason you should have died.
*hugs self* God, Wash.
