Yep,Awesome!
ReplyDeleteNew TV show - yes. Just yes...
ReplyDeleteThis sounds beyond fantastic! Can't wait! For both!
ReplyDeleteIn Whedon I trust. I now have faith that the sequel will be awesome. As for the new TV show, it's not on Fox so that's already an improvement.
ReplyDeleteDear Lord. And it's not Fox so there is hope for it to not get cancelled at the worst time possible. Hopefully.
ReplyDeleteYAY! This makes me really happy =]
ReplyDeleteGood news loved this movie
ReplyDeleteIn Joss we trust!
ReplyDeleteNow I can say I can hardly wait for the sequel. I will hold my opinion on a television series until I see who they are doing.
ReplyDeleteThis is great news for Avengers...
ReplyDeletesounds awesome. very excited!
ReplyDeleteSo much yes to this!!! Yay joss!!
ReplyDeleteI hope we get to see Moondragon.
ReplyDeleteBut alas, Avengers 2 with Whedon!! High Praise! (Fannish dream, I would love if he cast Smidge in a role :D)
Oh my god let me cry happiness, I know many people thought Joss would be involved but he seemed a bit uncertain (I know he has a lot of his own projects) this is simply magnificent and I am so glad he is involved in the TV show as well.
ReplyDeletebest news ever Joss is the best for the job anyway and as for returning to TV what better than ABC at least is not FOX or The CW thank god
ReplyDelete*sigh of relief*
ReplyDeleteThis is excellent news! And good to know that Marvel are smart enough to keep this guy around. From their full press release, it sounded like he was contributing a whole lot more than just the tv series and avengers 2. Sounded like he's script doctor for the other movies in the marvel universe, which wouldn't surprise me as he punched up the Captain America script after he signed on for Avengers.
Oh God, it's gonna be Whedon overload. Not a fan of his nor his shows. Also, he did make the Avengers way too light and too much like a comedy.
ReplyDeleteawesome news!
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued too see what they can accomplish there. :)
