Here’s a short video of Eliza Dushku strutting her stuff. Now that’s entertainment, right guys?, right?, er, not that this sort of thing is appropriate on a site dedicated to Buffy and semi-dedicated to female empowerment, but, er, (did I say semi-dedicated?), er, y’know, a little variety here and there can’t hurt. Right?

A few interesting comments from Joss Whedon about Dollhouse — something about what he’s trying to accomplish, a little bit about how he feels about the characters’ mixed motivations, and so forth. I guess, what occurred to me was, What are our more private dreams really made of?, and Who and what are we willing to compromise to fulfill them?

Well, I won’t be making it to Comic-Con this year, but for those who will, it’s almost here! Watch out San Diego!

Anyhow, I understand well over 125,000 are expected this year. Awesome. But far more important, Joss Whedon, et al, are slated to play a major role in the festivities. Anybody want to get an exclusive video of Joss for me? Or give me an exclusive report? I’ll post it right here. I may even be able to pay you something.

But probably not. Money? For money?! What are you thinking? You should just do it in the spirit of fandom, y’know? It’s not like you or your kids need to buy more comics or anything, right?

Among various and sundry other events that include Whedon sometime associates (in one sense or another) like Georges Jeanty, Juliet Landau, Brian Lynch, Peter David, Morena Baccarin,  Jed and Zack Whedon, etc., a special screening of the Dollhouse never-before-seen episode Epitaph One is scheduled, followed by a Q&A with Joss Whedon and Eliza Dushku, as well as a Q&A session with Joss Whedon about his upcoming projects with Dark Horse Comics and a special signing event, Dark Horse Presents: Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog (a ticketed event; see Dark Horse for details).

Also scheduled, an audience participation screening of Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s musical episode Once More With Feeling is scheduled. It’s a major event. I understand the con will be closed with it. Whoa.

So . . . this is truly the age of Joss, but we all already knew that, didn’t we?

Joss Whedon Writer/Director Joss Whedon is one of the most prolific figures in television, but it wasnt always that way. He started his career as a staff writer for the sitcom, Rosanne. From there he moved onto feature films, where he worked for several years as a script doctor, on films such as Speed and Toy Story. Tired of seeing his visions rewritten, Whedon eventually returned to television, bringing with him an adaptation of his first feature film, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. In this candid interview, Joss talks openly about the early days of his career, his showbiz family, his legion of fans, and the trials and tribulations of taking a cult TV hit to the big screen.

Would have to disagree though, just a bit, about Scully in The X-Files. She grew a little. It just took a long, long time.
