Could Dr. Horrible Be Coming To A Theater Near You?

Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog may soon no longer be a blog. Joss Whedon and his co-conspirators say they’re considering doing the sequel to the hit webseries as a feature film. Including a surprising castmember. Spoilers! Whedon told Sci Fi Wire that “we’ve talked about doing an actual studio film” of Dr. Horrible as the follow-up…

Are Dollhouse And Sarah Connor Chronicles Already Canceled?

Rumors are swarming, about the impending doom of Fox shows Dollhouse and Terminator. While people say Whedon is done with Dollhouse, Fox tells io9 different – and sets a date when all will be revealed. Besides the fact that Whedon has hinted at the termination of Dollhouse for some time now, it seems people are…

Everybody’s Broken In The Dollhouse

Joss Whedon‘s Dollhouse is not a playful space — it’s a shattered dungeon where everybody’s ruled by id. Dolls and dollmakers alike, everybody’s a lightning flash away from revealing their ugly reptilian brains. Spoilers ahead. Last Friday’s episode of Dollhouse might actually be my favorite so far. (Yes, even better than “Man On The Street.”)…

That’s It, You’re All Going To The Attic

Fox pulls the last episode of Dollhouse and your reaction is… not what I expected. For all the people upset at Fox, there were probably more disappointed with Joss Whedon, weirdly (and fittingly) enough. Many thought that this news was a sign for Whedon to finally walk away from Fox altogether: OlavRokne: “OMG! RUJK? Joss…

Joss Whedon Accepts Award, Drops Dollhouse Hints, Names Winner Of Buffy/River Fight

Joss Whedon stopped by Harvard last night to receive the 2009 Lifetime Achievement Award in Cultural Humanism, and we were there to hear him wax philosophical, talk Dollhouse, and settle the Whedonverse’s most important debate. A massive crowd filed into the school’s Memorial Church (because when you’re hosting an event all about cultural humanism, where…

Jennifer Godwin at E! Online covered the Dollhouse season finale controversy, and got the same answers as everyone else. (Including…

No Means No, Except In The Dollhouse

If Dollhouse’s dehumanizing premise made you uncomfortable before, then last Friday’s squicktastic episode probably took that discomfort, and ratcheted it up to psychic agony. Erase your brain with spoilers… Wow, Joss Whedon wasn’t kidding when he said that Sierra (Dichen Lachman) was going to be the focus of most of the sexual creepiness surrounding the…

What’s The Difference Between Story And Plot?

People always say the story is the most important thing in good science fiction. But excessively “plot-driven” science fiction is dismissed as mindless or worse. What’s the difference between story and plot anyway? Are “plot” and “story” just two different ways of saying the same thing? They’re both about a sequence of events that starts…

RIP Andy Hallett

News broke late last night that Andy Hallett, better known as Lorne in Joss Whedon‘s Angel, passed away Sunday night from heart failure in LA’s Cedars-Sinai Hospital, following a five-year battle with heart disease. Hallett, whose singing demon was one of the best things about the latter years of the Buffy spin-off, died with his…

The Naked Now-Ish

When Joss Whedon went around telling everyone that the March 20 and April 3 episodes of Dollhouse were the ones to watch, I wondered what that meant about last night’s installment. Now we know. Spoilers! Last night’s episode, “Echoes,” wasn’t completely terrible – it was still better, for my money, than the tube-top-wearing backup singer…

Dollhouse Was The Best Thing On TV Last Night

Joss Whedon keeps his promises – last night’s Dollhouse was a handsome reward to everyone who’d been paying attention to the series’ first five weeks, while still introducing the basic premise to the newbies. Oh, and this write-up includes spoilers, but don’t worry… it’ll be just like if your husband got together with another dude.…

This Week On Dollhouse: Patton Oswalt, Amazon Kindle, and Sassy Nerd-Jabber

On last night’s Dollhouse, geek god Patton Oswalt plays, well, a geek god who manages to name-check the Kindle in a totally non-derisive way. Check out the clip below. Elements of Nerditude: 1. Patton Oswalt. Stand-up who riffs on Star Wars and comic books. 2. Joss Whedon. Nerd legend, creator of many sounds-dorky-but-actually-awesome shows. 3.…

Help Dollhouse Stop Inappropriate Erections!

There’s something strangely awesome about a show that advertises using nekkid women, and then devotes a huge chunk of an episode to the enterprise of turning a hunky man into a eunuch. Dollhouse spoilers ahoy! Joss Whedon famously said that a movie is an answer, but a television show is a question. His first TV…

Joss Whedon’s New Musical – For One Night Only!

Call it the Dr. Horrible follow-up you didn’t see coming. Joss Whedon‘s next musical project has nothing to do with Dollhouse and is happening sooner than you may think. Like, next month sooner. Whedon will be providing “a special musical performance” for an already-special episode of Ira Glass‘ This American Life on April 23rd. The…

Hold The Phone! Tonight’s Dollhouse Is Pretty Great!

Tonight’s Dollhouse episode is clearly better than last week’s Britney-wants-to-die splashorama. We got an early review copy a while back, and here’s our spoiler-free exultation. When we begged Fox for review copies of Dollhouse episodes, they sent us copies of the first two episodes… plus tonight’s leather-clad imbroglio. It’s clearly better than last week’s stumble,…
