The Heath Ledger bet. A word on the Untouchables and Pink Flamingos. Weathered actors. Seamless transitions. Multiple stories. Surreal or absurd? Period pieces. Dry humor. Kid Rock as performance art. A bit on Joss Whedon. Independent production. The comedy. How many times can Michael mention Ben Stiller? Live action “The Tick.” The format. Going beyond comedy. Eric defends the film. Dr. Horrible as a flawed character. Avoiding exposition. Going beyond a musical. Special effects that add character. The most heartbreaking sentence ever. Overwhelming creativity.
