The whole "she's not a wisecracker, but she's not going to miss an opportunity!" thing.
There are places where Whedon's "hip, neato" dialogue can fit. Wonder Woman doesn't seem like one of them, to me.
Who knows, though. Maybe he'll surprise me.
Quote: Buffy?
An awful movie(as in, epic awful, which produced a crappy show, which produced a crappy spinoff. Never read the comics, but I'd guess they were also crappy.
I did try Fray, which I didn't think was all that bad.
Quote: Astonishing?
Never read it.
Quote: Serenity?
Never watched the show Firefly, and given that the movie seemed a lot more interested in spouting witty banter than actually setting up the story, I probably should have.
Not a bad movie, but I think it's kind of sad that that is what is now considered high-quality sci-fi. I chuckled a few times, spent most of the movie thinking how out of place Nathan Fillion was doing pirate-talk, and later confirmed what I feared was true as I left the theatre: that my two favorite characters in the movie were the only two that weren't in the show(Mr. Universe, and the Operative). That kind of killed any interest I had in tracking down the DVD's.
Incidentally, someone should start a thread about Serenity, whatever that is.
