With Whedon’s superhero names, goddess names, flower names, saint’s names, and dozens of British names, he’s filling his world with references from Shakespeare to manga, delighting fans who look closer. Examining Whedon’s naming through his five shows, plus his movie scripts and dozens of comics, reveals fascinating patterns for his dedicated followers.
@compfu I’ve always been baffled by the popularity of #Firefly. I bailed after 5 episodes: I thought the faux-western setting was ridiculous and the only character I empathized with even a little was the doctor.
I did watch the #Serenity movie, which was fine, albeit with hecka corny dialogue as I recall.
Possibly #JossWhedon is just not for me. I never watched Buffy, but #Dollhouse was pretty dull, too.
