Joss Whedon
The stupidest person in the room might have the best idea.
Joss Whedon
I'm totally cool. I'm totally calm, and I'm totally cool. My calm is exceeded only by my cool. Which is total. Here we go.
Joss Whedon
I think it's always important for academics to study popular culture, even if the thing they are studying is idiotic. If it's successful or made a dent in culture, then it is worthy of study to find out why.
Joss Whedon
How did you find me here? If I was blind, I would see you. Stay with me. Forever. That's the whole point. I'll never leave. Not even if you kill me.
Joss Whedon
There are many films and TV shows I make where people find themselves in fantastical situations as often as possible their reactions to it are very normal.
Joss Whedon
An audience who watches my shows knows who I am, knows that right when they think I'm going to make a joke, I'm going to blow something up, or during the worst peril, I'm going to have someone give someone a kiss - it's just going to happen.
Joss Whedon
Paul Hollywood's You're under baked is even better than You're fired.
Joss Whedon
Write it. Shoot it. Publish it. Crochet it, sauté it, whatever. MAKE.
Joss Whedon
I find that when you read a script, or rewrite something, or look at something that's been gone over, you can tell, like rings on a tree, by how bad it is, how long it's been in development.
Joss Whedon
Most people don't see Hamlet as an old bald guy.
Joss Whedon
Equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women.
Joss Whedon
If nothing we do matters... , then all that matters is what we do
Joss Whedon
When I say, I love you, it's not because I want you or because I can't have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I've seen your kindness and your strength. I've seen the best and the worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You're a hell of a woman.
Joss Whedon
You can't be a storyteller and a speechwriter at the same time.
Joss Whedon
I don't write just to be clever. But sometimes I do. And if you don't have an understanding of the language, then the way in which it's bent doesn't actually register. It's the old you-gotta-paint-like-them-before-you-can-paint-like-you thing.
Joss Whedon
War is not just the business of death, it is the antitheses of life.
Joss Whedon
I describe television as feminine and movies as masculine, in the sense that television wants to examine a problem from all sides and talk about it for a long time, and movies just want to hit the climax and then maybe have a smoke.
Joss Whedon
I don't know a lot of show runners. I mean I met a lot of them in picket lines. I'm not part of a, like, secret society or pickup basketball game. As far as I'm concerned, pick-up basketball games are secret societies. They confuse me. I've never been a networker or I've never been very social.
Joss Whedon
We don't need heroes so much as recognizing ourselves as heroes.
Joss Whedon
