Joss Whedon To Direct The Avengers

olyar noted that Joss Whedon has been tapped to direct The Avengers. This should make a lot of nerds very excited, and begin rampant speculation on Buffy/Firefly/Horrible universe actor cameos. Hope the script doesn't suck.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that Buffy or Firefly cameos would be horrible.

    I like to think of Buffy as the love child of Emma Peel and Thor, so you see how it all ties together.

    No, I'm unrated, with bonus footage not seen in the theatrical release.

    I prefer to think of Buffy as the love child of Emma Peel and Charisma Carpenter. Over and over again I think of this.

    Except the studio has already factored in RDj's inevitable self-destruction after Iron Man 2. By the time The Avenger's starts shooting, they'll have him down to a box of crackers and a prepaid Starbucks card.

    That's disgusting and perverted. You just mixed a character and an actress. You broke the fourth wall and ruined the fantasy for all of us, heathen!

    I though you were more of a willow devotee.

    The world is divided into two groups, the Willow devotees and those who cannot admit to themselves that they are Willow devotees.
