New Whedon Interview; Final Serenity Trailer


In Focus (the official magazine of the National Association of Theatre Owners) has a fantastic cover story on Joss Whedon by editor-in-chief Jim Kozak in their August/September issue - but you can read the entire uncut interview on their website here. It's pretty much the best Whedon interview I've ever read, as it's not only exhaustively thorough (almost 10,000 words), but fascinating, illuminating and entertaining. It spans such current topics as Serenity and Wonder Woman, delves into his history as a writer on Toy Story, Speed and Alien Resurrection, explores what he would've done with X-Men, Batman and Revenge of the Jedi - and even reveals what he's TiVo'ing these days. It's a must-read.

In other news, the final U.S. trailer for Serenity debuted over the weekend, and it's the best one yet (following the international and teaser trailers). Check it out here. And in case you missed 'em, last week The Hollywood Reporter ran a really good feature story on the whole Firefly / Serenity phenomenon, and The Daytona Beach News-Journal ran a particularly amusing piece about why you should watch Firefly (which I encourage everyone to do via either DVD or Sci Fi Channel). Oh, and there's a good interview with Nathan Fillion here.

P.S.: BTW, if you'd like a soundtrack CD of Greg Edmonson's beautiful score to Firefly, now's the time to let Fox Music know via FoxMusic.Publishing@fox.com.
