If you say it a few times it starts to sound like it! Shawn and I recently watched the movie "Doubt". Interesting movie; I am not sure yet if I liked it or not but there is a phrase that closes the movie and we make fun of it all the time!Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05981339306218398352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8953434957462559041.post-83280815666298218302009-05-11T15:28:00.001-07:002009-05-11T15:28:00.001-07:00I had the same reaction to Run Fatboy Run.

I'm going to email you with some thoughts, ...Chris,<br />I'm going to email you with some thoughts, and I'm also working on a blog post about the same type of thing, but the gist is this: Whedon's strong point is characterization. He has always been a little lacking (IMO)on quick story pacing. Good on long arcs, not so much when it comes to packing a punch into a single ep (beginning, middle, end). I feel like he's worked very hard to distance himself from previous work on Dollhouse. And he's also worked very hard to be heavy on STORY and lighter on characterization (in fact, you could argue that the fact that Echo herself is **devoid** of character each week, until she is dropped into a story). When taken from a solitary standpoint, as just a show, Dollhouse is somewhat weak. If someone else was writing it, I don't know if I'd be tuning in.<br /><br />BUT... it isn't just someone. It's Joss Whedon. And I have a lot of faith in him. He delivers on a strong long arc. And I felt like the pacing of Friday's ep was pretty good, pretty meaty, and there was at least one surprise that caught me up in the story.<br /><br />And I want to see more.<br /><br />Long response... more later.Whimsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05543385560164099748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8953434957462559041.post-91700413316359521912009-05-11T14:41:00.000-07:002009-05-11T14:41:00.000-07:00Um, I saw Dollhouse.

The episode on Friday was pretty good but also fairly predictable (which is all I'll say as not to leave spoilers). If it gets a second season I'll keep watching it but I don't think its going to get a second.<br /><br />What did you like so much about the episode?Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06129203060421799975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8953434957462559041.post-42686817172066078082009-05-11T13:56:00.000-07:002009-05-11T13:56:00.000-07:00That cake isn't done correctly without the Sea of ...That cake isn't done correctly without the Sea of icing on the counter.
