Whedon’s had me confused for a long while. We know he’s a dork. We know he has a huge following thanks to Buffy. So I watched a lot of post-Buffyness with “I’m too cool to let myself enjoy this too-cool stuff” hesitation. But his track record’s been pretty badass, ‘Serenity’ being my first real experience of that.
The background for the movie is sort of typical future sci-fi fare…
