poseidon @ Don't you feel silly! ; D

Ultimate Cartoon, dude come oooooon?

Thanks, everybody. I appreciate the supportive comments. I always try to make the interviews conversational; nothing more boring than feeling like someone is reading off of a list of questions.

@Poseidon

Yes, that's a logical thought. We'll see how Captain America goes, as the Ultimates threw in a plotline about the Skrulls working with the Nazis during World War 2.

@ integrity

i hope its hank & jan,i'd love to see scarlett witch & black panther in the sequel.

i know scarlett witch is a mutant,but by the time we get to see the avengers 2 who knows marvel might have their x-men rights back.

Great interview Ed. Excellent stuff

Ed: Very nice conversational flow to this interview, and a good natural progression of questions. Too many interviewers want to "stick to their script", and not pick up on little things the person they're interviewing says that should lead to follow-up questions.

I DO like hearing Whedon talking like he loves these characters, which is a lot better than a director who doesn't really care about them one way or the other. When you care about the characters, it shows on screen. It's going to be a huge job to blend all these characters from several different movies into one group, and Whedon sounds like he's up for the challenge.

I am a bit concerned hearing the Avengers referred to as "damaged people". Heroes should have their faults- after all, they're (usually) only human- but let's not wallow in the cesspool of these faults. I want to see a superhero movie, not a soap opera with costumes!Hopefully, all he means by "damaged people" is that these guys DO have faults- they're not the Super Friends, who were all best buddies and had no visible faults of any kind- and they'll be acting like Marvel characters.

Juggernaut @"Is this going to be "One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest" with powers or what?"

OMG! Thats a freakin GENIUS idea!!! I would pay to see THAT!

Good sounds good

why cant i hear the interview

I can't access the audio at my school. What does he say? :)

I believe in Whedon. evrything I have seen from him, leaves a mark in my mind. Sometimes a sad, angry, depressing one, but at the end of the day he makes his story burrow into my brain. Unlike other movies that my brain immediately spews, like Wholverine, Xwho3, Superwho returns, The Which Airbender, Aeon Sux, STShitt Fighter: the Legend of Who Li, Dragon Poop: Evloution, etc.

Thanks, JoshW. Sincerely.

Just got home to finsh listening to this! Great interview :)

I really need more faith in this movie, because all I can imagine is the things in the film people will complain about. I NEED STORY DETAILS!!!

BTW Marvel put me under the spell with Iron Man too! Awesome movie.

Awesome Ed - must give massive props!!! =)

Here's one thing about Whedon, he's capable of doing alot with a little. Serenity's one of the very few if any? canceled tv shows that got a sendoff on the bigscreen... however he did write part of Waterworld =P

Props to Whedon for taking the chair for this movie, it takes big brass balls to stand before the unruley mob of Geekville who are ready to throw rotten vegetables and proclaim that he thinks he can pull it off. I got your back man, however this thing turns out. BTW- I think his balls should have a cameo.

OK SOOOO ITS A TOTAL REBOOT?

It's quiet... too quiet -.-
