In case you missed all the links in my sidebar and my post on it, the new Joss Whedon project “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog” just went live. This internet project is a superhero-type musical comedy lovestory told from the wannabe-super-villian point-of-view.
And as if that isn’t enough, it stars Neil Patrick Harris as Dr. Horrible (aka wannabe-super-villian), Nathan Fillion as Capt. Hammer (aka the super-hero) and Felicia Day (aka the lovestory part of this triangle).
Just watched part one online at DrHorrible.com and it was definitely worth the wait. As a classically trained vocalist, I was suprised at how good the singing was - even Nathan, who definitely sings better than he dances.
Oh, don’t look at me like that…you know it’s true. Proof:
Now I just have to wait some more. Part two goes live Thursday (July 17) and part three goes live Saturday (July 19). The whole thing will only be online until Sunday, then you have to wait for the DVD (with bonus stuff up the wahoo, according to Whedon). Or you can buy it online at iTunes, too. I think I’ll wait for the DVD, though.
Did you see it? What did you think?

Ok, I know he hates the attention, but I have to give a shoutout to my bestest bud Jeff for his birthday.
We first met a few years ago when we both attended a talk by travel writing guru Arthur Frommer at the Orlando Public Library downtown. Since then I’ve become really good friends with both him and his lovely wife and I feel very blessed that I have both in my life.
So Jeff, even though I know you’re over a thousand miles away, once again being a personal Superman to many who are in need, I hope you’ve found the time to have a really wonderful birthday.
And cake. Can’t forget the cake. LOL
Many hugs and blessings for another year on this planet. Can’t wait to see you whenever you get back.

Yup, it’s a new project called “Doctor Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog” that stars NPH (Neil Patrick Harris to those who’ve never seen Harold & Kumar) as the trying-to-be-evil madman, Nathan Fillion as the superhero Captain Hammer, and is written by Joss Whedon and various family members. It’s a three-part musical that will be aired on the internet in the near future.
The fan site for the film just unearthed the first video teaser for the project and as expected from anything JW touches, it’s hilarious.
Truly believes age ain't nuthin' but a number; loves 70's disco & funk, 80's hard rock & new
wave, 90's alt-rock & pop, LOTR, Star Wars, RHPS,
Joss Whedon, James Gunn, Laurell K. Hamilton; deeply passionate; loves animals - hates insects;
gourmet chef's worst nightmare; gets easily annoyed by fat prejudice and
sexist men; never gives third chances; refuses to live in the past.
I'm on a first name basis with my inner child, and I believe we were put on
this earth as unique individuals for a reason and that reason isn't to bomb
the hell out of each other.
We first met a few years ago when we both attended a talk by travel writing guru Arthur Frommer at the Orlando Public Library downtown. Since then I’ve become really good friends with both him and his lovely wife and I feel very blessed that I have both in my life.
Your friendship is special to me and I’m very grateful for it.
