It's years later, the number of times I've watched Dr. Horrible since its release is way in its double digits, the number of times I listened to the songs in the upper triple digits. And I am still completely amazed by the fact that Joss and NPH - two of the best human beings on this planet - have come together to give us this. My gratitude knows no bounds.
Nathan Fillion was amazin!! he is such a great actor!! Castle is my fav TV show so when my bro showed me this i was jumpin up and down all bcuz of the cast!! And Neil Patrick Harris!! his acting made it real every1 has been bullied and his feeling wow i think every1 can relate to this in a way...great job!!! tres bien!!
I love everyone who was/is involved in this movie/series; truly amazingly talented, interesting and wonderful people. I am so glad they are part of the movement of the internet medium.
It's more of a thing you're supposed to feel, but when he sat in his chair for that second in the end, here's what it meant: Since Dr. Horrible had always been Billy's repressed side, he'd show up in the blogs as a way of freeing it. Now that Billy is his repressed half, he's the one who's going to show up in the blogs. To quote Billy- "like pie" It goes from Billy on the outside, to Dr. H in the middle, and then in the center, deep down into the core of who he really is, is yet another Billy.
death is inevitable, it can be a great catalyst he greatly understands this and doesnt waste it on just a random side character but someone you personally are going to mourn and feel the loss of just like the characters themselves, thus truly engaging you in his world as only a master of his craft can do. Whedon fan ALL THE WAY!
joyce, angel (temporarily), buffy (twice), jenny, giles, spike, plus all those you mentioned. he also likes to turn people you get invested in as good characters into evil characters, especially in buffy (angel/angelus, faith, willow). i'm amazed that in firefly itself he didn't manage to kill off a main character.
i still cant believe some people got mad after part 2 and didn't get the ending. like nathan said, it's classic joss! and the moral of the story is crystal clear...i loved evvvvvvvery second of it and i'm still spreading it around to all my not-so-nerdy-not-as-obsessed-with-joss-as-i-am friends
I saw Penny's death coming cause when i watched it for the first time, Steven moffat had already killed clara twice, Merlin ended (4 loved -make that 3- character deaths!), and I watched serenity for the first time. Afterwards (like right after everything you ever.) I was like I knew it!! and then I saw the credits saw Joss whedon, and I'm stunned. finally I say "Well no wonder."
LOVE Firefly, LOVE Dr. Horrible. You guys promised a sequel. WHERE IS IT?!?!?!? Keep going, Whedon brothers! PS- my sister went as Dr. Horrible to Comic-Con this year. Homemade costume. :)
Am definitely buying the DVD. I'll buy a few for an x-mas presents here is Oz if I can get my hands on them before the 25th if not great prezzies for any occasion :)
JOOOOSSSSSS! Dude!!! You can kill Spike, great heroic exit. You can kill Wash loveable, but also heroic exit. You can kill Darla, but you don't kill Buffy, you don't kill Willow, and you don't kill PENNY!!
Joss said that he's going to start production After he finishes Avengers 2, which isn't even in preproduction yet, so It is not coming out in Spring. Sorry guys
Just found out about this as well. Great stuff by Joss Whedon... found this while browsing through Felicia Days' work, which I also discovered just a few days ago.
And that explains why I had "Not for me, anyway", go through my head after jeremy1l's post. But still, going into production! WAHAHAHAAA!!! *happy dance*
It's actually not confirmed yet if Phil actually died. Gregg signed on for several movies in the Marvel Universe & word on if he'll be in any upcoming movies is being kept pretty hush, hush. Though I don't think the folks in the studio have decided themselves. I doubt he'll be in Iron Man 3 if he is still alive, just to keep us in suspense. But possibly Thor: The Dark World. Plus, there's Marvel's S.H.I.E.L.D. It's not known if this TV series will take place before or after Avengers, though.
I don't understand why people were so shocked at Penny dying. If you've ever seen anything Joss Whedon's done, you know to not expect a clichéd "happily ever after" ending. Look at what he did to Tara & Joyce in Buffy, and Fred in Angel. I always expect a major character to die in Joss' work. It's more of a shock if they live tbh.
dr.horrible might not take over the world but i know it took over my heart

I'm still here, waiting for the sequel.
Sqribblings we are still waiting...
Still waiting...
still waiting,,,
Still waiting
Still waiting🥺
Dr. Horrible is probably the best character ever, with an amazing voice.
Rachel Nope amazing !? Pffff! Legen...wait for it ... Dary , legendary!

so they say

That last thing Neil said... Made my heart stop. Like seriously I was like. I LOVE YOU.

Did anyone else get as excited as me about the Dollhouse story boarding in the background at 3:08?

First episode launched on July 15th? Best birthday present ever! :D

"he loves to kill people"
Topher, Alpha, Penny, Wash... DAMN IT JOSS WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?
LOVE Firefly, LOVE Dr. Horrible. You guys promised a sequel. WHERE IS IT?!?!?!? Keep going, Whedon brothers!
PS- my sister went as Dr. Horrible to Comic-Con this year. Homemade costume. :)
i didnt see it coming either :D but i also didnt get mad at him for taking the story in that direction. it's brilliant!
Hahaha I love the box of Ricola in the room at 4:35 xD I love Dr. Horrible!
I'm excited for the sequel, they are filming this summer
I love the eyebrow raise Neil did at the end.
Am definitely buying the DVD. I'll buy a few for an x-mas presents here is Oz if I can get my hands on them before the 25th if not great prezzies for any occasion :)
Ahh I remember waiting by the computer for the episodes to come out!
I had no idea that this existed until last year. Because when this was released, I was three.
The second one should begin FILMING in Spring.. no word on a release date.
Okay, who said "Balls" when the music ended? Just me? Dang...
I still remember what it was like waiting for the episodes to be released one by one. *sniffles*
6 DAYS?! thats incredible!!
omg, i cant believe i only watched Doctor Horrible for the first time today
omg yeah definitely, it would probably make the world a better place honestly
Why is ENTERATACT2 highlighted in the credits?
production of the second one starts in spring....more likely it will come out in summer or later.
i love you nph "theres a dvd for this? it was a six day shoot in a living room" your are the fucking man NPH!!!!
JOOOOSSSSSS! Dude!!! You can kill Spike, great heroic exit. You can kill Wash loveable, but also heroic exit. You can kill Darla, but you don't kill Buffy, you don't kill Willow, and you don't kill PENNY!!
I just can't believe my eyes !!
"[He] loves to kill people"
lol. Ayna in the last few possible minutes of buffy. :P
Joss is the only person more dedicated to killing off beloved characters, in the same league as George RR Martin
I'm sure Nathan was thinking about Wash ...
lovelovelovelovelove this
@dejuand There's an extra in the dvd if you press 'enter' at the beginning of act two! Well noted :)
Wow, all of a sudden Neil BECAME Dr. Horrible at the end
Joss said that he's going to start production After he finishes Avengers 2, which isn't even in preproduction yet, so It is not coming out in Spring. Sorry guys
Just found out about this as well. Great stuff by Joss Whedon... found this while browsing through Felicia Days' work, which I also discovered just a few days ago.
"Soon, Dr. Horrible will take over the world!" Or just you, Neil.
@luv2sketch100 well if your a Harry Potter fan there is always A Very Potter Musical
Right. Like we needed more reminders of the epic dimwittedness of TV execs. They canceled Firefly fer cryin out loud.
We need more Joss! :-D
omg, Neil! Did you just
Taken on the woeld is a daily bases work!!!
"People are always surprised when Joss kills a character". Nathan's right..this shouldn't be a surprise at this point
@UberSharkyGirl do you have a link so I can watch it? I NEED more Dr. Horrible, and it sounds awesome! Even if my favorite character does die! lol
@bigbangclang Joss Whedon is a legend. He has directed Dr. Horrible, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Firefly Serenity
It's like an album, who doesn't know their favorite albums by heart?
awsome! can't wait. nph fan for life
I could live in a world ruled by Neil Patrick Harris. I would be completely ok with that
loved the ending, NPH 4TW!
It a path that leads to an easter egg
And that explains why I had "Not for me, anyway", go through my head after jeremy1l's post. But still, going into production! WAHAHAHAAA!!! *happy dance*
Oh God, I knew this wasn't like a long protracted shooting, but they did the whole thing in a week!?!
Curse you, Avengers 2. Curse you. I get that the first Avengers was great and warranted a sequel, but you made Dr. Horrible stand on the sidelines.
Boy do I have news for you..
It's actually not confirmed yet if Phil actually died.
Gregg signed on for several movies in the Marvel Universe & word on if he'll be in any upcoming movies is being kept pretty hush, hush.
Though I don't think the folks in the studio have decided themselves.
I doubt he'll be in Iron Man 3 if he is still alive, just to keep us in suspense.
But possibly Thor: The Dark World.
Plus, there's Marvel's S.H.I.E.L.D. It's not known if this TV series will take place before or after Avengers, though.
Taken from the playbook: The Doctor Horrible Sing Along Blog
Perhaps it's just a coincidence, but I noticed the yellow letters at the end. "Enter a tact 2"
I FUCKING LOVE YOU NPH. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH I WANNA CRYYYY
Joss always kills everyone's favorite character, it's nothing new.
It's been delayed until after The Avengers 2 comes out.
Time to go watch the real thing again
I don't understand why people were so shocked at Penny dying. If you've ever seen anything Joss Whedon's done, you know to not expect a clichéd "happily ever after" ending. Look at what he did to Tara & Joyce in Buffy, and Fred in Angel. I always expect a major character to die in Joss' work. It's more of a shock if they live tbh.
I wish I could hit the like button multiple times.
It's almost the summer... WHERE IS IT?
what? omg i cant wait!!!!
The marked letters in the credits say: "Enter at act 2" lol xD
when i say the ending i tought "i'm i missing something?" then i got it
If NPH took over the world I'd b perfectly fine w/it
"People are always surprised when Joss kills characters." lol
Ive never been to comicon... i thought it was 500 people in a room maybe asking joss questions and sarah michelle gellar...
@lunncal5000
Bad Horse would be the one to do it, of course. It's Bad Horse.
Joss whedon's impact on killing people: still getting over Wash
enter a tact 2
no its coming out after he finishes the avengers 2
A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do...
:)
Nathan @ 2:37...
WASH, BOOK. NOOOOO.
Totally Doc man
with my freeze ray I will stop the world...
@TVDandTrueBlood And Captain Malcolm Reynolds!
Want to create something that people will dress up like....Well my school definitely achieved that when we actually performed Dr.Horrible.
i heard there is a 2nd one coming on my birthday!!!!! Just tell me there is another one coming!?!?!?
Lol I am a guy and I am cosplaying as penny
You rock.
But why not Dr. Horrible? I'm a guy, and I think he was hotter.
Huehuehue
It's Neil Patrick Harris. He's always going to be hotter.
ZenzioT
hell yea hes just to cute
yea i'd go gay for NPH... and i'm straight as an arrow
"Enter at act 2" in the credits!
Why hasn't Dr.Horrible taken over the world, yet?
I think it had to do with an Easter Egg on the DVD.
That's great!
Coulson lives
end of the video, BALLS.
EVERYONE! IT'S OK! Loki has saved himself by killing Coulson, so the death quota has been filled.
if you look at just the gold letters it says "enter at act 2"
weird, the letters at the end, in the credits can be read as ''enter at act2''
Don't forget Shepard.
Nerds don't emerge from their grottos in groups of less than 1000.
Can anyone tell me who the guy at 2:58 is? In the baseball cap and brown sweater. Looks a lot like someone I know.
the yellow letters in the credits spell out "enter at act 2" what does that mean?
did anyone else notice that if you took the yellow letters in the cast at the end it spelled "Enter at Act 2" Does this mean anything? hm.. I dunno.
@bigbangclang Joss Whedon=everything awesome ever. Probably most well known for doing Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And Dr. Horrible.
