Leaving aside the fact that he's a sex criminal and generally horrible human being, I simply cannot get over how badly Joss Whedon writes dialogue. He is a cancerous polyp on the English language.
He's very f***ing pathetic. The worst parts of Avengers that he did was the cringey sexist shit and it's not like he can even hide from it with his whole bs about he was made to be an example because he did the same with DC with the Wonder Woman lasso of truth scene. Then the dollhouse show in general was some perverse fantasy he conjured up and wanted it played out and he tortured and verbally abused a promising young actress. He had a pattern of it from Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Dollhouse, Marvel and DC. f*** that loser.
I still love Firefly for the nostalgia of it all but I am at peace with the notion that he created it but didn't write it all and others wrote a ton more than he did for the show.
Some cases it is a hit job and it's obvious, like Hammer, Westwick, Hardwick, etc. Now Gaiman is getting raked over the coals and his seems very fishy. I'm all for victims voices being heard but when they are anonymous I feel like the allegations should be dealt that way too, both victim and accused should be anonymous and dealt with legally. Because you never get your career back when you're innocent.
Then there's just shitty human beings that are hailed as heroes and idols - Billy Murray, Chevy Chase, Brad Pitt, etc. Roman Polanski and Woody Allen being praised as directors is pretty f***ing gross.
Ps- Snyder, Zack Snyder I mean, is a f***ing loser as well. Bloke made an entire movie about rape fantasy and genuinely gets off on the toxic behavior of his Snyderverse deranged f***wads.
real quick but I liked it a lot. Some good support cast too.
