Joss Whedon Talks "Dr. Horrible" Sequel And Gives Me An Excuse To Post Photos Of Nathan Fillion's Inner Thigh

In a recent interview with Joss Whedon, New York Times writer Dave Itzkoff asks none of your burning questions about The Avengers film and instead spends his time pursuing the sequel to “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-A-Long Blog.” This is fine by me. Whedon, predictably, doesn’t reveal much at all except to say, “We’ve got several songs near completion and we’ve got a very specific structure. We’ve just all got jobs. And it’s not like Neil, Nathan and Felicia ain’t busy either.” So, several songs, a plot and the news that the delicious gingersnap that is Felicia Day will be returning. So fingers crossed for “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-A-Zombie Blog.” (Laundry day, see you there, viscera, tumbling…)

The best part of the interview (and the reason Joss is such a favorite of mine) is Whedon’s response when the interviewer presses him for more information:

It’s going to be “Dr. Horrible and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.” And it’s going to be just as good as the other one. I don’t know why people are upset about that title. And by the way, by the time we finish it, Neil will be just as old. No, I’m not saying anything.

While you’re reading the entire transcript of the interview, I’m going to be ogling these photos of Nathan Fillion. I’m not certain what is going on here. Was he auditioning for Airborne? Either way, I approve this message, this bandana, and this Discman. The Discman may be his pen*s.

And lest you think Nathan is the dorkiest member of the “Dr. Horrible” cast, I’ve got some photographic evidence to prove otherwise.

Joanna Robinson would like to thank Sara Tonin for the NYT article and Celebitchy for the Fillion porn. It take a village, folks. Email! Twitter!

Those pictures of Fillion look really old, so I'm going to try very hard to overlook the fact that he's wearing jorts. JORTS!

I think the headband is the real crime.

Yikes! Those are not pretty pictures of Fillion. That man improved mightily with age. In the close-up (the that creepy open mouth thing that some photographers apparently egg their subjects on to do) he looks like Uma Thurman with a severe hair cut.

Did you seriously edit out the word "penis"?

Posted by: Craig at April 18, 2011 4:20 PM

Huh, looks like Jason Bateman.

Can we just have a Joss Whedon channel now?

Posted by: Candee at April 18, 2011 4:29 PM

He'd be a shoo-in for a Cruising remake.

Is "penis" joining the lexicon of unspeakable words?
Voldemort will be pleased (he's a real see-you-next-Tuesday).

He's dorkily adorable, but I much prefer him a little older and grizzled. Goofy aged well on him.

Actually, I believe she censored the word "pents" which is a combination of "Femme" and "pants". Joanna, in her massive obsession with Fillion (You neither wanted nor needed an excuse to show his thigh, did you?) felt ashamed at using the term femme with him so she censored it.

penis, Penis, PENIS, PENIS.

Gosh, that's liberating.

(hi, mom)

Posted by: Joanna Robinson at April 18, 2011 4:43 PM

Did you just say penis four times? Was there a mirror nearby? Because you know what means!

BRETT FAVRE!!!

Start packing your shit. Your father and I are turning your room into an office.

Posted by: Mom at April 18, 2011 5:26 PM

Mo-oooooom, I didn't say peeenis. I was like talking to Tiffany on the phone and she's like going to see the Pirates of Penzance. It only sounded like penis, Penis, PENIS, PENIIIIIIS when you try listening through the door. Du-uh.

Nathan Fillion is one of the few men in Hollywood who gets much better with age. As cute as he is, I actually do not like photos of his younger self. I think he looks better the older he gets. He actually looks like a man and not a boy-child.

I have been getting a friend hooked on Firefly since it is conveniently on Netflix Instant. He sent me a message today that the theme song is now stuck in his head. Mission ACCOMPLISHED.
Oh sweet Fillion. Those are some unfortunate pics, but he is so pretty I will forgive him a few youthful indiscretions. It could be worse, he could be wearing tight Guess acid wash jeans and Duane Wayne glasses.

Lindsey has brought up a very important point. While no one will deny that those pictures are unfortunate, we would do well to consider how much MORE unfortunate they *could* be.

Also, the inner thigh's not bad.

I believe you all need to watch your conduct. Such language might not be appropriate for minors accessing Pajiba. Edit. Such a filthy word.

Posted by: Robert at April 18, 2011 8:07 PM

Thanks. He looks like my high school boyfriend, if I could show you guys pictures I would. Sadly, 10 years later, I still see him wearing similar outfits on facebook.

Posted by: Other Julie at April 18, 2011 11:16 PM

I'll chew those jorts right the fuck off him. Problem solved.

Behold! It is The Headband of Doom!

Posted by: The Wanderer at April 19, 2011 6:54 AM

The only person in these photos I would not molest most heartily is the guy with Felicia Day....

PEEEEEENNNNNIIIIIIIISSSSS!

Posted by: dammitjanet at April 19, 2011 8:29 AM

Penis Cloud this one, Joanna. Penis-iously. We all know the word penis would be penistacular. You should Penis Cloud this one for today's Pajiba Penis. That would be penis-some.

Oh and BENOIT.

Posted by: lubeg at April 19, 2011 11:33 AM

That's an uncharacteristically dead look in his eyes. I blame the jorts
