Has Joss Whedon Made A Shakespeare Movie? Fillion Says Yes.
Joss Whedon may or may not have made a movie based off of Shakespeare. Whether or not he has depends on what you choose to believe. Which I suppose sounds a lot like most things in life.
Video: ‘The Avengers’ Trailer. Arousal Assemble!
Busy, but not too busy to prevent me from posting a venue for wanking off to/hating on the trailer for The Avengers. Me? It’s like every fantasy made (digital) celluloid.
Hit the jump to check it out.
New ‘Avengers’ Photos Highlight Awesome Cap/Iron Man Sexual Undertones. Right?
Nothing like some serious unresolved sexual tension between two posturing alpha males to make your summer comic book movies, pop? Right? Right! Well, anyways. I’m really pumped for the Avengers, and Entertainment Weekly is stoking that geek boner with a batch of new pictures and some details. Get some!
Rumor: ‘The Avengers’ To Feature ANOTHER Villain?
There’s a rumor going around of another villain in the Avengers movie. One we haven’t spat about yet, and who frankly, would be a fucking righteous threat for a sequel or so. Spoilers ahead, fuckos.
Marvel’s Shot A Secret ‘Avengers’ Trailer, Featuring The Villain?
It’s almost too fucking bad that we live in a universe filled with eternal spoilers and the death of the reveal. I realize that I contribute to the perpetuation of this problem, but I can’t help it. I’m an addict. Word vomiting out of Ain’t It Cool News is that Marvel has already shot a secret trailer for The Avengers, which will be attached to either Captain America: The First Avenger, Thor, or both. And oh yeah, the trailer drops the reveal on the villain behind the enormo-flick coming out next year. This would have been a total balls-draining geekgasm to experience without foreknowledge, but c’est la internet or whatever.
Here’s The Shortlist Of Actresses Up To Play Nick Fury’s Sidekick.
Oh don’t you love shortlists and speculation? I mean, weren’t you getting worried with the hammering out all the details of The Dark Knight Rises would leave us in Speculation Limbo? Fear not, true mouth breathers such as myself! And innocent bystanders. Coming off of Samuel Jackson stating on Jimmy Kimmel that he’d be screen testing actresses for the role of his sidekick, today we have a purported list.
You ready for this shit?
Whedon Rewriting The Shit Out of The Avengers and Captain America Movies
Whedonnites, prepare! to! fap!

Variety, in a confirmation of Whedon’s hiring two days ago, says that he’ll rewrite The Avengers. He’s got plenty of experience writing superhero teams and for ensemble casts, so that, again, was pretty much a foregone conclusion. But as The First Avenger: Captain America, set to shoot soon, is basically a lead-in to the big team movie, should Whedon do some work on that script, too?Pajiba says that’s exactly what he’s going to do. The site has “a source close to the project,” who says that Whedon is likely to be assigned a rewrite on Cap. That’s all the site really has, but given that the word I’ve heard about the Captain America script hasn’t been terribly positive, it’s certainly a rumor I’d like to believe.
I’m totally fucking stoked that Joss Whedon is rewriting The Avengers and Captain America. For starters, the first draft of The Avengers was by Zak Penn. He wrote X3. I rest my case. When I heard he was the guy behind The Avengers, a single tear fell from my eyes, and I said, “Well, it could be worse, they could cast Johnny Storm as Captain America.”
I’m kidding. I’m really almost sort of over that.
And despite the fact that Whedon rewriting the movies means that they’re going to be filled with existential angst, vampires, and atheism, I’m okay with it.
Joss Whedon Looks To Be Directing The Avengers. I Can Feel the Whedonites Orgasming
Let’s get this out of the way. I thought Dollhouse was a steaming ball of fuckhate. But I like Joss Whedon. A lot. Not as much as some of the people I’ve seen, who build monuments to him out of their own pubic hair and ripped-up Firefly t-shirts they lost their virginity in. But I do. And I was pretty worried about the Avengers movie, so hearing that he’s probably going to be directing it? I am gladdened by it.

On April Fool’s Day, IESB had the bad timing to report that Joss Whedon was on the shortlist to direct The Avengers for Marvel. Really bad timing for that scoop – while Whedon is the sort of guy a lot of fans would like to see on this film, there was too much reason to be skeptical when it ran on April 1. The LA Times confirmed that shortlist a few days later, but even then it was tough to tell if the studio was serious, or just spitballing in the same way it seemed to do with the Captain America casting.Either way, things are evidently serious now, as there’s a report that Whedon is in final talks to direct the film.
I can only imagine the amount of fluids being excreted by fanboys and fangirls if this shit comes to consummation.
