Jul. 19th, 2008 12:11 amJOSS WHEDON IS FUCKING BASTARD!! I love and respect him but geez, did he really have to do this...again?!
First, he killed Tara and pulled out my heart and promptly stomped on it
Then, he killed Fred and even though she became Illyria it still ripped me to pieces.
Then, he killed Wash in Serenity and I couldn't breathe because the lump in my throat had gotten so big.
And now, we barely had time to fall in love with Penny and Joss took her away from us. I was really hoping she would end up evil.
I am happy for Dr. Horrible though. Getting into the Evil League of Evil was his dream come true.
And I loved the song he did while he was threatening everyone at the homeless shelter. It was brilliant.
EDIT:
Oh, I love Bad Horse. I was thrilled to see an actual horse standing behind the door.
And one of my favorite lines from this one: "There's the deltoids of compassion and the abs of being kind. It's not enough to bash in heads...you got to bash in minds."
Oh and I didn't notice this till the second viewing but when Penny's sitting on the washer there's an extra bowl of frozen yogurt with a spork on top. She was totally in love with Billy. Everybody say daww!

Oh, I loved the horse too!

The horse was so cool :)

Now that I've watching again, the true time my heart breaks during Act III is the last three seconds of Billy sitting in front of his camera. No music, no lab equipment. Just Billy and you can hear the sounds of his heart breaking.

on 2008-07-22 01:32 am (UTC)I have to admit that I wasn't upset about the death because I necessarily liked the character - I was more upset about it because I liked Dr. Horrible's character, and knew that he cared about her.
