.....he would be a fucking nobody. He is a product of nepotism. Plain and simple. John and Tom Whedon were both screenwriters of a lot of classic tv. Joss undoubtedly would not have gotten anywhere without their help and name. Yup. Too bad he screwed it all up by being a doucbebag...😂😂....guess that is what happens when you are raised with a silver spoon in your mouth.
shareSo whats your point.Hollywood is full of people who had opportunities handed to them through nepotism.You think Will Smith's kids are getting jobs because their talented.Or that any one would know who John David Washington was if it wasn't for his dad Denzel.At least Whedon made a name for himself on his own.
shareAmen, it is harder to find someone that truly made it on their own than to find someone that made it from nepotism.
shareHe didn't do it in his own anymore than Smith's kids........you dont think his grandpappy and daddy gave him all the connections he needed plus his name....what are smoking????
shareHis connections didn't write and create Buffy, Angel or Firefly for him.He did that himself.Nepotism only opens the door.Talent keeps you inside.
shareAnd being a hypocritical leftie ends it all.
shareDon't know his personal political views and don't care.That's his business.So long as he doesn't try to preach them to me through his writing like so many woke writers feel the need to now a days.
shareReally? i like Buffy but the show for moments is almost a feminist manifest, he open the door for writers who push their feminist agenda trough their writing because he was if not the first at least the most successful to do so
If so it never came across for me on screen.Nothing about it ever felt heavy handed or preachy unlike so many shows today.
shareReally? i like Buffy but the show for moments is almost a feminist manifest
Are there any strong female characters that don't come off that way to you? Or do you just not like strong female characters?
shareGive me a good story and a charismatich protagonist and i enjoy i dont give a F** if is black, chinesse, female or whatever i like Aliens, the fifth element, The villaneisse, Underworld, and many other movies and tv show with female lead but a problem with buffy is the way present men and women even the male hero of that show are asshole in some point or other and the women are perfect is just moronic
shareNot really? One of the main female characters from what I watched so far is pretty much constantly a bitch. From what I've seen it presents men and women very equally. Even Buffy herself isn't the best at times. I'm not so sure we've watched the same show.
I guess if you don't like it, don't watch it. You're wrong though.
While those shows are good it's well known that he is not the one that made them as great as they turned out to be. Firefly was mediocre and best by the way. He came up with one fucking good concept...a vampire Slayer. Big deal. It would have gotten a pass if not for his name Im Sure...
shareFirefly was basically a star wars rip off TV show with Han Solo as the lead character. Buffy he took vampires and rejigged it into a school setting (bit like JK Rowling did with magic/wizards etc)
shareYup. Other writers made it shine. Hes nothing more than an entitled prick. If he was so great why is the whole damn family in movie production??? It's because of their connections...simple. If we came up with that concept it would have been rejected or caught up in red tape...
shareYou have a sad life.
shareOnly telling the truth. Joss has ways been a flipping prick. It was evident by many comments back during Buffy. As much as I like thise shows I wont miss any of Whedons other mediocre crap. Besides the greatness of Buffy and Angel was mostly from other writers and producers.
Hes done. Now to get other hacks like Kurtzman and Abrahms out. All these guys have left a lot of ruin in their wakes....😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lmao. The best parts of Buffy and Angel has almost ZERO to do with Whedon. Try again. Hes finished..
😂
The best parts of Buffy and Angel has almost ZERO to do with Whedon
He came back for Angel's last season and guess what????? IT STUNK....
I Never believed the feminist bullshit. Again he made several comments back than about relationships that should have been red flags. I knew than that he was a prick. Of course it turned out totally true...😂😂
bullshit
shareHaha...its not. The info is readily available...😂😂😂
shareNot questioning his family,but the fact that you say that he obtained big success like Buffy,The Avengers,etc. only because his dad wrote in a tv show decades ago! Haha what a bullshit! His dad at max provided him his first job on Roseanne. But all the rest,all the big shows he created,all the big movies he wrote and directed,its only thanks to his big talent!
shareHes a hack. The majority of his work is mediocre at best. His ideas never would have seen the light of day if it werent for his family. Everyone in his family just happens to have this great "talent" BULLSHIT....
shareWho the F are Tom and John Wheedon?
shareThey worked in tv. The whole damn family works in tv and film. Go f'ing look it up on wikipedia....joss is not some "discovery" he got a lot of doors opened for him and a lot of chances people with more talent never get.
shareI did. Still don't know who they are. Doesn't look like anything they did really compares to the success Joss reached.
shareDoesnt matter. They are all in the business. It's not some coincidence. NEPOTISM. Joss was a self admitted asshole...and continued to be even after he admitted it. He even admitted to his wife he abused his power back when they were divorced and he still continued....😂😂😂
