Joss Whedon Explains Buffy The Vampire Slayer
In 2011, Joss Whedon visited Australia.
It was a strange and wonderful time - a time where Buffy, Angel and Firefly fans could be nervous about the seeming decline of Dollhouse, and be hopeful for the upcoming feature film, The Avengers.
I managed to talk to Joss in the Sydney Opera House, no less, and we touched on a few things. The interview as created for on-air use, but we were allowed to put some snippets online, and they proved, not surprisingly, extremely popular.
Have a look again and marvel at the man who has pretty much become a one-man industry.
"Joss Whedon, the beloved creator of Buffy, Angel and Firefly visited the Sydney Opera House earlier this year, and had a chat with us.
Here he is sitting in Bennelong, just before his sold out on-stage performance. Whatever you think of Joss' work, from rapture to revulsion, it cannot be denied that the man is a beacon of niceness, and an eloquent speaker.
Here's a snippet of the longer interview that focuses on his thoughts on Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Perhaps it may shed some illumination on the current TrueBuff Marathon - running until 7:30pm on Tuesday the 26th.
The 'click' for Buffy? "High School WAS a horror movie."
If you do want to hear about Buffy, from the creator himself, feast upon this:

Long gone are the newspaper wrapped fish and chips delight with an occasional potato scallop in there as well. What a delight as a child. But I'm a little more discerning of my fish and chip quality these days.
Firstly I like my chips not too greasy and they must have just the right crunchy effect upon entering the palate with that hot smooth slightly salted oiled potato flavour that tantalises and when digested leaving a warm internal feeling of glee and satisfaction. It must have the right bouquet as well. You must be satisfactorily triggered by the scent of those chip delights several hundred metres before you arrive at said establishment.
I prefer my fish without the usual layered accoutrements of batter or bread crumb. Definitely the au natural expression, perhaps though having been simmered in a delicate lemony sauce. And there must be sufficient chips so you can share a few with the expectant mouths of our sea gull population on a shaded bench overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Sheer bliss.
There's a great little unpretentious take away fish and chip shop on the Corso in Manly fairly close to the beach that's canteen style but serves a great fish and chips.
Of course I have no idea why this site exists in a Science Fiction forum, but hey...what the heck. I'm hungry.
That little fish and chip shop at Waterfall on the highway used to be quite good, changed hands and not quite as good now.
