The August/September edition of In Focus Magazine has an epic cover story on “Firefly”-“Serenity” mastermind Joss Whedon. The interview was conducted June 23, so it makes no mention of the latest “Spike” TV-moive buzz, but it does feature Whedon talking about (among many, many other things):
* Why there are no horses in “Serenity," and why the “Serenity” characters do not curse in Japanese or French;
* Whether Shepherd Book once did the bidding of evil men;
* Why “Revenge of the Jedi” is the movie Whedon would have loved to have written;
* How Whedon got involved with “Toy Story”;
* Why Jim Carrey did not play Buzz Lightyear;
* How plans to set the final act of “Alien: Resurrection” on Earth were scrapped.
* Whether the movie Wonder Woman will fly under her own power, or make do with an invisible plane;
* Whether Whedon will set a height requirement for Diana of Themyscera;
* Whether Diana will contend with a print-derived supervillain;
* What he thought of Jor-El’s giant “S.”
* His original “X-Men” movie script, which involved Phoenix and the Danger Room.
* The prequel to “Batman” Whedon pitched to Warner Bros. before Christopher Nolan got involved;
* How the “X3” movie he discussed with its producers would have differed from the one that’s going to be made;
* Whether he’s interested in making an “Avengers” movie;
* What happened to his “Iron Man” project for New Line; and
* What he’s planning for the 2006-2007 TV season.
