Whedon's Moving to Cabin in the Woods

Source:MTV

July 7, 2008

Joss Whedon, whose "Dollhouse" with Eliza Dushku premieres on Fox in January, tells MTV that while his proposed horror fantasy Goners is on the backburner at Universal, he is instead writing and producing Cabin in the Woods.

He co-wrote the project with "Buffy" alum and Cloverfield screenwriter Drew Goddard. "It's genius, it's funny," Goddard said about the film. "It's got a harder and darker edge, but it's also got classic Whedon qualities. It'll rip your heart out and be heartfelt at the same time."

So what is it about? "There's a reason the title is so straightforward," Goddard added. "It’s its own sub-genre, the cabin in the woods, and this is sort of our take on it. It's fresh and new."

Anything Whedon is involved in AND has the words "fresh and new" attatched to it means its going to SUCK.

Whedon was writing the Wonder Woman movie scrip.
I don't think this is a good idea.

i'm on board for all things Whedon! He's been the best X-Men scribe since Morrison, Firefly was awesome, and all things Buffy and Angel are incredible. Bring it on!

Writing and Producing? Huh? So who is going to get the directing nod? Someone from Team Whedon like Tim Minear or Doug Petrie maybe. That will be interesting to find out.

This sounds so wonderfully stupid. Completely dumb in a good way. Like all that Whedon does, it's a fresh take on something old. Whedon is the master of the spoof/homage-of-horror genre.

Crimsinx... you should go die to help the future of mankind, you dumbass. You need to be removed from the gene pool.
