Film Trailer for Joss Whedon’s Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog.

Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog is the latest project from Joss Whedon, and far as I can tell, it’s an online series that also happens to be a musical. Usually, the words “online series” and “musical” would combine to spell “certain doom,” but hey, Whedon’s involved, and plus, Dr. Horrible stars Neil Patrick Harris (!), Nathan Fillion (!!), and Felicia Day (okay, so I have no idea who Felicia Day is, but still—Nathan Fillion and Neil Patrick Harris!).

Well, here’s the teaser for it, via the fansite for Dr. Horrible. (Whedon fans—either creepily or charmingly—will happily set up entire fan-based communities for shows they haven’t even seen yet. There are already at least three for Dollhouse, which won’t even air until January.) Considering I’ve only ever been able to sit through two musicals without seriously considering the benefits of becoming a cutter, it feels weird to say this—but, uh, I kind of wish there was some music in here?

She was in Buffy and is in another online show (for Warcraft gamers mainly) called the Guild. Check it out at http://www.watchtheguild.com/

Yay! Yay! Yay!

Okay, I'm going back to pretending like I'm cool (and don't have the Buffy season 8 comic in my backpack...).

I can understand people not "getting" musicals, but why are some people so extreme about their hatred for them? (Especially when they've usually only seen the likes of Grease, Phantom, Cats, etc.) And you're claiming Whedon fans are creepy? Hmm....
Nevermind all that. Can't wait for this web series! Whedon has an understanding and appreciation for musicals - he gives them the respect they deserve. :) And this project looks fantastic.
