Great to see Joss back in action.

Definitely going to work with an "I know what Joss is doing today" grin on my face.

Did you see "The Quatermass Experiment" on BBC4 a couple of years back ? Interesting to watch and it certainly had an immediacy (you don't see people flub lines in TV drama that often anymore ;) but it also had some real pacing issues, made me glad they don't do it that way nowadays.
(and anything with serious effects would be impossible or a complete nightmare to direct)

*raises a glass* To the long life of Dollhouse! May it survive beyond the 7 episode order, have much success, and be plain awesome.

I say we celebrate with a hoot-en-nanny!!
And I don't care what Oz says; lots of hoot and BRING ON THE NANNY!! squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! (Not sure what "em" does, thought I'd try it out.)
And, yes, it's also my first time on a maiden voyage on a Joss cruise. Was alive and into the 'verse when Serenity came out, but was in Hong Kong at the time.
Is it time to take our oaths that we'll be dedicated viewers of our new
babyshow and not leave the country?korkster | April 23, 14:33 CET
Does anybody know if they need pizza? A couple of helping hands? Hordes of fans to squee & gawk while they're in production?
I'd never do that though.
korkster | April 23, 14:36 CET
Oh and here's hoping for lots of backstage stuff beeing filmed for the dvd extra's :D

(if it's any consolation, your lunchtime would be about our dinnertime, so perfect for that all important transatlantic audience - by which I mean "me". Course, you'd know what was gonna happen about 500 milliseconds ahead of time so i'd have to be careful of spoilers ;)
Saje | April 23, 16:46 CET
Mmm toast.

Anyway, filming, yes, wonderful, exciting, already my favorite show once BSG is off the air, Emmys all around, etc., but does this mean Joss won't have time to edit Dr. Horrible? Because I'm still kind of looking forward to that.

Firefly Flanatic & chance, yes a Jossgasm is required, but I feel weird saying it. That word does NOT make me want to sit on the couches of my fellow Whedonites.
korkster | April 23, 18:50 CET
Although the official fansite won't put that on their cast and crew page because apparently me saying "I got it directly from her" isn't a good enough source for them, heh. (Maybe someone they do know should vouch for me, so that LL can be added to the page.)

There were some closures today - and one going on now on our office street - (http://www.eidc.com/html/street_closures_map.html) but the daily shoot sheets are no longer available to the public - they used to be online daily...
And "downtown" is a mighty big place, and that's a fact.

It's where the billboards shine brightly - like in Bladerunner - where there's no parking, and all the alleys are nicknamed "Piss Alley."
So maybe I'll see you there - especially if an ambulance brings you from an outlying district and dumps you there.
Downtown - you're gonna be alright now.

Love that song, by the way.
korkster | April 24, 12:05 CET
In our area - 9th & Broadway-ish - there are those yellow signs for a shoot they're calling "CM" and some for a shoot known as "Seven Lb" (Seven Pound) - and my partner tells me that yesterday he saw "CSI/NY" shooting nearby.
That is all - as you were. Feel free to linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty. No spitting.
QuoterGal | April 24, 12:58 CET
cabri | April 24, 13:04 CET
Never was good at spitting myself.
korkster | April 24, 13:07 CET
We have those out here too. They're called all-night laundromats.
Btw, I had a lunchtime meeting so I missed the broadcast of the first episode. How was it?
barboo | April 24, 13:08 CET
*opens window, leans out, hollers.*
He doesn't seem to hear me. Maybe it's the frakkin' jackhammer that keeps jackhammering right outside our windows. Or it could be the sadly-off-key-but-sweet trumpet player that's playing "The Girl from Ipanema" that's blocking the sound of my voice? (Hey, now that's a bossa nova, innit?)
*oh my nerves*
I'll poke around when I go out later. And if he signs my arm, I'll ship it to you fedex, I promise...
More Filmic News at Eleven...

TO DIE FOR! COME BACK TO LIFE VIA SUPERNATURAL MEANS! FEND OFF AN APOCOLYPSE! TO DIE AT A VERY OLD AGE!
kind of experience. Too bad you missed it. But I hear there's a convention going on this afternoon... if you're in the neighborhood. :)

IfWhen people die, it's going to be all permanent and stuff. No mystical deaths or "Ha! I'm a demon, your stabbing action is a mere annoyance!" moments either, so I guess it will even out.I know, technically, Firefly was magic-free, too. But between River being psychic and Alliance medicine being really good and Mal being all kinds of injured and briefly dead and still walking around mouthing off to people, it felt a little magically survivable sometimes. Until Serenity, anyway.
Sunfire | April 24, 13:41 CET
In fact, if I was Joss I probably couldn't resist playing with that by e.g. putting an existing, well loved personality in a new body (just because of the questions you could ask as a result - it'd be like Illyria ++ ;).
Saje | April 24, 13:56 CET
Grrrgh! Saje beat me to it.
Saje, sorry for the *spoiler*. But since the episode aired yesterday at lunch time, I just figured everyone knew who was interested, ya know? You need to keep current or you'll drown in the waves of excitement.
korkster | April 24, 13:59 CET
"three blocks from La Brea and Santa Monica, which just so happens to be the very area in which Joss Whedon was shooting Dollhouse today!"
Leaf | April 25, 10:42 CET
*sulks in corner.*
Thanks, Leaf, for finding this... but it's painful to realize that we drove through that intersection not once, but twice yesterday, and that we work downtown, and we've managed to miss all his local shooting so far.
*still sulking.*
I full expect to go out to my friends' house in Pasadena tonight, as we have planned, come back and find out tomorrow that he was shooting in Old Town as we drove through it, and that everyone he's ever known and worked with happened to be at the shoot.
I am so not hooked in.
QuoterGal | April 25, 11:06 CET
Leaf | April 25, 18:05 CET
In which case, QuoterGal would no doubt have to kill me. ;-)
Shey | April 27, 00:23 CET
Joss and Co. left the place very clean, and put back everything just the way it was, so you could barely even tell they'd been there. However, my cats got to be extras, and that was such a burn for me; they were all Caturday-in ur TV show stealin yur rolez which was insufferable.
Nobody likes a show-off.
