This week, in honor of the opening of The Cabin in the Woods, FFOW! highlights an original film based on the work of Joss Whedon.
THE FILM
In 2008, after the Writer's Guild of America strike that shut down Hollywood for fourteen weeks, Buffy creator Joss Whedon produced the original internet musical sensation Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. It starred Neil Patrick Harris as the title character, a maniacal madman wannabe whose only wish is to defeat his pig-headed superhero nemesis Captain Hammer (Nathan Fillion) and win the heart of Penny (Felicia Day), the girl of his dreams. Whedon's short premiered to acclaim and went on to win many awards, leading to whispers of the soon-to-be-made sequel.

With so many big events happening in the comics world -- Marvel and DC’s pro-gay story arcs, the legal disputes between comics creators and corporations -- let’s not forget some of the most important events happening off the published page. Namely (as my loving wife reminded me), this week marked the season finale of America’s Next Top Model: British Invasion! To celebrate, we’re looking at AtomicWedgieTV’s parody, Cleveland’s Next Top Model.
