I haven't posted anything in awhile... and I've been behind on posting at my photo site too. But I had to get myself to the computer to put up a quick note about Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog.
Not a surprise right? It's Joss Whedon, so of course I'm on board and Dr. Horrible didn't disappoint. Nathan Fillion brought all kinds of funny - (I'd love to insert a quote from his character here but won't because the line is so funny in context that I don't want to ruin it) - and Neil Patrick Harris is just all-around good - great voice, great commitment to the character and you've gotta love the goggles.
I loved seeing Felicia Day again - she was a potential slayer in Buffy's season seven - and I had no idea she had such a beautiful voice. Ditto on the excitement over picking out other Buffy writers and producers behind the news desk and in the Evil League of Evil.
And that's not even mentioning the music. I was really impressed with the score - especially Dr. Horrible's big song in Act 3 (walking through the audience). Sort of a Sweeney Todd sound that really showcased Neil Patrick Harris' voice talents.
So I'm too late for promoting the free preview week, but Acts 1 - 3 are still available for download on iTunes - $1.99 each or $3.99 for a season pass. It will eventually be out on DVD (with extras) too. It's kinda dark, kinda quirky, but worth a watch, or two or three.
