Dr. Horrible's Single A Long Blog

CALLING ALL JOSS WHEDON FANS!

You only have till the end of this weekend to watch Joss Whedon's latest creation - 3 web episodes of Dr. Horrible's Sing-A-Long blog.

It is fantastically funny, typical Joss Whedon witty one liners and still the serious undertone of love is pain - as is in everything Joss has done.

Has to make you wonder who hurt him this bad for him to be this good at it. 

Whatever the cause, this is a MUST SEE for Whedon Fans.  As is with most things of his, you either like his style or you don't.

This comes from the fact he was pized at the writers strike and the way that the industry handles the process and how the entertainment industry gives it out to the public.  So he decided to do his own production at very low cost.

You can watch it till tomorrow for free. After that, he'll release it for download on iTunes for a small fee and eventually will be released on DVD.

He wants this to be successful to stiffle the unions and curtail the entertainment industry's stifling of creativity. I'm sure a lot of this also goes back to the way that he got skrewed by FOX on Firefly and how they tried to change is show.

After you watch, you can go see his "Master plan" which will explain all this in more detail. LOL He even has a comic.

PLEASE GO SEE. HELP Joss make this successful!

Yes - I linked the website where you can watch all 3 acts

awesome. thanks I knew nothing about this.

what does "PLEASE GO SEE. HELP Joss make this successful! Anything to stop Unions of anykind!!!!" have to do with anything though? I thought Joss Whedon was a union activist.

I am a huge fan of his work!! I book marked the site. Thanks

If that is what you think, then you need to go read "Master plan" underneat the main screen with the Act I, Act II, Act II on it. He was frustrated with the Union as well as frustrated with the stifling of the entertainment industry both.

" Why, Joss? Why? Why now, why free, why us?

Once upon a time, all the writers in the forest got very mad with the Forest Kings and declared a work-stoppage. The forest creatures were all sad; the mushrooms did not dance, the elderberries gave no juice for the festival wines, and the Teamsters were kinda pized. (They were very polite about it, though.) During this work-stoppage, many writers tried to form partnerships for outside funding to create new work that circumvented the Forest King system.

Frustrated with the lack of movement on that front, I finally decided to do something very ambitious, very exciting, very mid-life-crisisy. Aided only by everyone I had worked with, was related to or had ever met, I single-handedly created thi

Tidbit-that means he was frustrated with not working and decided to do his own thing. Google it though. He's described as 'a militant union activist'.

not that I really care either way though. Just saying he did not do it to 'stop unions'.

your right.. I'm probably misintrepreting what he wrote. But I've also heard interviews with him how he was frustrated with the Unions because unions have started speaking on their own and not for the people the represent. He used the hockey union as an example in his interview, where he said the players were saying one thing and the union was doing another.

sorry on the late response.. been mowing the lawn. Normally I don't come on here on the weekends. I just wanted everyone to see these. They were great! Definately something I'll add to my Whedon collection

Yeah, it is awsome. Can't wait for the dvd. This is the first weekend I've ever been on here I think. Just finally made a profile this morning. Again, thanks a bunch for this info.I've already watched it twice.
