Boy named Joss.
It was exciting at first, until I realized I had always done this even as a child, but had lacked the ability to stop and focus on the image and look really closely. Then it just became frustrating because 99% of the time I have no idea what or why I am seeing something or who it is connected to, so I have gone back to ignoring it. Most of it is just boring, everyday stuff and not very interesting anyway (buying vegetables, running on a treadmill, driving). But I’ll definitely check out the movie, thanks!
I think you will like it a lot.
I’m not sure how Whedon went from libertarian to uber-Leftist - unless he just enjoys the positive attention from his Hollywood peers so much he can’t help himself.
My fondest memory of his product was Firefly. I’ll choose to remember it and probably not much else output from him, frankly.
Exactly; from browncoat to purplebelly without blinking.
Firefly/Serenity is nearly a diatribe against globalism and leftist thinking (’unified’ quasi-US/China future dystopia crushes libertarian rebellion, heroes struggle to survive on the fringes of a post-freedom society, while rabid killers are unleashed by governments’ inevitably failed attempts to create a leftist utopia). It even comes complete with its own variation of this year’s WikiLeaks scenario :)
How one goes from that to a reflexive hatred of anything even vaguely dissenting from the left meme, I don’t know.
Note to Joss.
Pull battery from cellphone when drinking heavily.
That is all.
In college, Whedon studied a theory called "womb envy", a concept he says observes "a fundamental thing that women have something men don't, the obvious being an ability to bear children. Men not only don't get what's important about what women are capable of, but in fact they fear it, and envy it, and want to throw stones at it, because it's the thing they can't have".https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joss_Whedon#Feminism
I’m sure Ms. Graham would be happy to volunteer for that duty.
OK you have established your liberal creds, now shut up and make shows!
Well, Paul Ryan’s a RINO, so maybe that would work out in the end.
