alright guys we're here with Joss Whedon and your fingerprints are all over comic-con how is it like coming back here and what if you could really kind of describe what kanokon is for you what would you say is the giant playground in my backyard that i forgot to build its it feels very much like home except its way louder and and it's a lot sillier but I'm okay with both of those things now you're here to talk about Buffy kind of returning to you know the first girl you dated you know one of your true loves and how was it bringing back about buffy the vampire slayer too dark horse you know she's lived there for a while now and it's a very very very good relationship I think that you know the things that are about season eight that I felt like we're a Miss were all on me I felt like the people the dark was brought to the party but I brought to the party they all did amazing work but I felt like structurally I missed the point that even in comic book form where you can do anything you want with people really want to see is the Buffy that they relate to I want a very sort of day-to-day level and so I'm excited about season 9 because we're coming back to that is it almost it sounds almost for yourself a little bit of you know personal retribution because from what I just heard it sound like you kind of were let down by it but you're here to bring her back you know in better ways for yourself well I loved a lot of the stuff we do the season me but I do think I know I I had in my head oh my gosh you know we could be the authority we can we can we can do anything and people were like can they just talk and obviously they're not just gonna talk you know there's most mystical monsters and all sorts of fun but that phone is rooted in the experience of going through a normal life I'm going to abnormal way and that's really what made the show work is that people could be Buffy and when she's running army it's a little harder to be heard I think I missed on that so I'm excited to get her back to her roots the ethos of the show which is we never tell a story no matter how exciting unless it's about her and exactly where she is you know in school or out of school now a lot of people may not be familiar but you kind of have the musical gene inside of you you did dr. horrible's sing-along blog you even directed an episode of glee with Neil Patrick Harris is music a big part of you know kind of one of those creative outlets that you have that you'd like to explore here and there like how does music fit into everything that you do well you know me and my brothers were raised with a ton of music and musicals and just it was in our lives not that anybody played anything my brothers all learned to play instruments somehow really easily bastard soon but it's you know music has been a way that we understand expression and I'm a huge fan of music and dance and it's just you know it comes and goes because you know when you have a ton of projects or very very young children you don't get a lot of time to to make music and sort of coming back in again and it's a great feeling because it really does nurture it's a it's a really delightful way to express whatever you're going through alright also with the Avengers one of the unique things is you really started building characters from scratch on your own and kind of building there you know the story and the character itself with the vengers they have an established characters a storyline that people are familiar with how is that a challenge for you it's an enormous challenge to take all these characters that already exist in very different universes and bring them all together and not tell their origins but just sort of have people get by the way you're telling the story who they are in case I haven't seen those movies same problem I have a serenity quite frankly it's a little easier because most people will know Captain America is even if they haven't seen the movie but it is a you know it's it's all about sort of dancing around these different perspectives and keeping a real narrative flow while you're you're shifting constantly from person to person it's enormously difficult now one of the characters that I don't know if it's been confirmed or not but there are rumblings about an about ant-man in the movie is that is that true or not you know I'm really not allowed to say what happens in the movie but can say that it's not true well it's not sure yeah man something with me I was I was looking for a role because I might be able to save you some budget costs on the CG so that that could work in your favor if you're looking to stick them in somehow it scroll around with all the bottom will call you
