Find Out Why They Call Him "Captain Hammer"


For those of you who have any interest in Joss Whedon, or Neil Patrick Harris, or Mal from Firefly/Serenity, or like comic book villains, or enjoy laughing, I strongly encourange you to check out "Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog." This internet series, made by Whedon, the creator of Buffy, Angel, and Firefly, came in response to the writer's strike, and network executives who gasped at the idea of giving writers any royalties for the media they created for the internets. Remember the whole "We don't even know what the internets are, much less how anyone could possibly use them for entertainment purposes" crap they tried to pull? Well, Joss made a low-budget, relatively high quality product and made it available for FREE. So go to the link, and check it.

When you're watching, keep a look out for the Evil League of Evil, Fake Thomas Jefferson, and Captain Hammer's less-than-subtle explanation of where his title came from. Classic.

Haha, that was great. I love Joss Whedon, Neil Patrick Harris, Mal, comic book villains, laughing, AND Joss Whedon musicals, so this excites me on many levels.

Thanks for the link.
