I just received this:

Joss Whedon posts at the Bronze Beta < http://www.bronzebeta.com/> http://www.bronzebeta.com/



joss says: (Fri May 9 18:36:54 2003)

is this on?



joss says: (Fri May 9 18:39:45 2003)

OKAY! for the first time ever, someone pretended to be me with some measure of success! Congratulations. Here's exactly what came of it: the brass at the WB saw the post, thought it was me, and got wicked pissed off. The fact is, they are still deciding the schedule, and Angel's future is still in doubt. Making them angry at this stage is, shall we say, unhelpful. Hopefully my colorfulness will make it clear I'm me, I don't have time for the usual funny.



joss says: (Fri May 9 18:41:26 2003)

Now that that's clear, I will add that I'm very hopeful, we're working hard to make it happen, and as soon as anything is decided you'll know. Probably before I do, knowing you guys.

ps Didn't Tim's ep kick buns?



joss says: (Fri May 9 18:46:26 2003)

Kiba is the goddess who directed me to the post, thank you Keebs. I gotta run away now. But here's a little Firefly sneak: Nathan and Alan are right now recording a duel commentary on War Stories for the DVD. It's gonna be so large.... see ya -j.

Here is the imposter quote:

Hi kids,

No, this is not the evil anti-Joss. I wear no goatee/van-****/fu-manchu facial hair. I follow not the path of the scar-faced Spock.

I am the real deal. The gala mandala. The free chi.

I merely wish to spread good will hunting and Matt Damons to all by stating that Angel will definitely be back next season. The official news spews next week.

Kai and I love you all, love each other, love ourselves, make love to elves, and are often fresh on Hobbits.

Bugs and Krishnas to all!

Joss



Again, that was an imposter from New Jersey, not the real Joss.

I'm curious if Joss's "project that was re-lit" was the Firefly DVD's, or if there's more to it than that.

Maybe it's a new special feature for the DVD?

I'll bet my suspenders that the "re-lit" project isn't just a DVD commentary....

I totally agree with that. DVD commentary cannot be Joss's great plans for the future. Besides, no one really cares about commentaries anyways. They're just semi-interesting clips to take up space, vot sometime you'd watch over and over.

Gee, those "nobodies" seem to ask for commentaries a lot.

As for my own self, I have a couple of movies where I watch the commentaries more than the movie.

Gosh, thanks. I'll let you know if this leads to dangling babies and excesive plastic surgery.

Off the top of my head: Young Frankenstein, Fight Club, Goldeneye, anything by Pixar. The Buffy commentaries are pretty amusing as well.

Worst commentary: The Matrix. IMHO.

Ebert does a great commentary track on Dark City. I think he has one on Citizen Kane, also.

Ebert's commentaries are great for those who follow film as an artform. Not much behind the scenes stuff or anything like that.

The Matrix had several audio commentary tracks... I personally enjoy the one by the composer, 'cause he's my uncle :biggrin:

I was really amazed to find that on there... I don't know of any other DVDs that have commentary from the composer of the score.

Re: composer commentaries - there should be more of it! Cool stuff.

Well, all of Joss's commentaries are awesome, and I can't wait until his on Serenity & Objects in Space.
