And did we know about the uncredited rewrite for Captain America? I've been trying to avoid spoilers so I may have missed that.
Meanwhile, unrelated to this article, Which Avenger are you?

This bit cracked me up:
Then the screen flickers to black. “Sorry, Joss,” says a young woman from the back of the room. “Technical difficulty.”
Whedon stands up from his couch, turns around, extends his right arm, and says—in a pretty decent Darth Vader voice actually—”You have failed me for the last time!”

2. RE Dollhouse:
"He wanted to do a show that would deconstruct identity and relationships and socialization …" If he had just stopped there, this would have been plenty of material for a good, successful, and more mainstream show. I wonder what it would have been like...? "...and celebrate human perversion." Adding this part automatically made it a premium cable story.
3. "And his work was all just so … intellectual." *giggles* I LOVE that this statement was made about stories with vampires, a hellmouth, other dimensions, spaceships, and wonderflonium.
4. "...Wastelanders, which Whedon describes as “a hate letter to the human race wrapped in a love story." *sigh* Another Joss project I won't be viewing. I just can't get on this bus with him. This is an area where we just have a fundamental disagreement in viewpoint. I'm really glad Much Ado is coming out. And I'm also looking forward to In Your Eyes. Otherwise, I'd be really worried that he wouldn't be telling stories that I wanted to experience any longer.

LOVE this quote. Also, a word I hadn't seen before: exegetical. Familiar with its root, but never seen this variant until today. New words are fun!
