Dollhouse - pretty effin cool
Feb. 13th, 2009 11:32 pmI went back into New York on Sunday for the Dollhouse and Fringe panels, and to make one last stab at spending money on pointless merchandise. (Ended up with a NYComicCon hoodie which is awesomely comfortable.)
Joss was, as expected, completely smart and funny and charming and awesome. ("The programmer, Topher, you'll see a bit of him in me. He creates characters...and has no morals".) Tahmoh was also lovely, but because I live under a rock, I have never watched Battlestar Galactica, so I wasn't nearly as excited to see him as the rest of the audience was.
Other fun things - when asked what genre he'd like to do something in, that he hasn't yet, Joss said frilly costume drama. ("Dresses!")
So, he said that making Dollhouse completely terrifies him, because all of his work is a desperate cry for people to love him (d'awww) and he knows the subject matter is controversial and that some people are going to sayhorrible things about him and/or it, no matter whether it's made well or not.
They showed the first 10 minutes or so, which, yeah, set up the premise pretty well, but I can also see being total cannon fodder for his fears that people will hate it. However! ( spoilers! ) So, while I was already pretty much going to be staying home on Friday nights, this is definitely a more-than-acceptable
