i can totally see an Avatar sequel where instead of creating hybrids, they send some T 800′s and all kinds of shit fall upon the navi’s… Cameron and Whedon should have a brainstorm about it!!!

If he’s offering $10k for the Terminator franchise, i’d offer about $1000 for the Firefly franchise. On a serious note, Joss if you are reading this, i’ll offer $10000 for the Firefly franchise.

Um, bigsampson – that Robot Chicken episode you refered to was …a JOKE! Serioulsy?? YOu did not take that seriously? That is what made it so funny was the fact that Joss actually used it in a sentence. Do you also think Joss lives in a big dark castle and wears gothic/nobility clothing? come on.

You don’t have to be a Wedon fan – there’s no harm in it, but the man has created some great stuff whether it’s your thing or not he’s had success creating some good stories.

Well unlike some people who will just give up on a series, I will give it every chance I can. I am not a Whedon fanboy but I do think he can be a great writer and to be honest every episode I watch I keep thinking…. ok this is gonna be the turning point and the series is gonna just take off, but sadly it just hasn’t happened.

Like I said in the above post “On paper the Dollhouse idea is very intriguing, it just hasnt been able to transfer to the TV Screen.

Mate, just read this:

The premiere episode of Dollhouse helped Fox double its audience levels among women versus Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and helped the network finish in second place among adults 18–34 and in first place across the key male demographic for the night

Er, hope that helps…..

@bigsampson: Dude, what kinda question is that? “If it was good” obviously qualifies it as an “undead” franchise, regardless of who directs it :-S

Fucking funny! What a Genius.

Reminds me when SNL invited The Beatles to re-unite for a $3000 pay off.

The “snap judgement” comes from your statement that the show is about a brothel. Yes there are sexual encounters, but that is one tiny part of what they do and what the show is about. If you watched the show you would see that its mostly NOT sexual encounters. So it wasn’t a snap, it was an educated response to your baseless blanket statement that the Dollhouse is basically just a brothel.

Also, your blanket statement that you presumed the demographic all agreed with your wife’s presumptions about the show as well. Which if she watched it, couldnt really make that assumption.

If you “struggle to watch it” then dont. Why would you do that to yourself? Who does that?
