Motivational posters: Season 8/Doctor Horrible

You know, I was watching Doctor Horrible again, and it struck me... Joss is nothing if not consistent. Maybe not always in characterisation, but definitely in themes. So I was going to write something on the similarities between Season 8 and Doctor Horrible, but I figured it would be more fun to do it in the form of... motivational posters! Some making half-serious points, others... perhaps not so much.

Spoilery for both series and not dial-up friendly... are people still on dial-up? Anyone? Anywhere?

















ETA: Because [livejournal.com profile] stormwreath wanted more Hammer/Buffy comparisons, here's a slightly different one:

Not a fan of either of those Joss products, personally, but those were very funny and go together beautifully.

Those are great!

I'm on dialup. One of those "mobile broadband" things that are basically mobile phone modems that vary from pathetic to decent for folk who don't have a quasi-competent phone company in their area.

Hee! He smells like Poo! And "puffy"!

These are fantastic, hon. Utterly.

Heh. These are excellent.

Thanks!

These are genius! Especially love the Xander/Dracula one! Hehe.

Thanks!

That's interesting. I've gotten so used to broadband I barely remember what it was like surfing on dial-up... and it was only a couple of years ago. :-)

Thanks!

You know how British soldiers used to wear red coats so you couldn't tell if there was blood on them? Well, Twilight's wearing a brownish mask...

Thanks!

Thanks! Well, it seemed the obvious choice for that line. :-)

That is too disturbing to contemplate.

LOL these are all great! That last one kinda induces a shudder though. I still remember that dream I had back when Warren got revealed. It was in no way cartoony and cute.

*screech* You continue to be a MAD CROSSOVER GENIUS.

I love how you paired Buffy with "The world is a mess and I just need to...rule it." and the "Evil League of Evil - Just got the application you sent in." Hee!

That was fun. :)

*devil fingers of awesome*

The Riley/Hammer confluence is just perfect.
(although I too shriek at Skinless Warren--I actually screamed when I saw the panel--way to go to combine all my nightmares (1)at once, Joss!)

(1)Almost--at least he wasn't a braineating zombie.

I see your point!

*applauds wildly*

(I should say something coherent and cutting, I know, but I'm all out of cleverness today.)

AHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Yeah. I love the first two, especially. :D

hilarious, thanks for making and sharing!

[identity profile] beer-good-foamy.livejournal.com 2008-12-09 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, sorry about that. Thanks!

[identity profile] beer-good-foamy.livejournal.com 2008-12-09 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Guilty as charged. :-) Thanks!

Thanks - glad you liked them! The similarities between Buffy and Dr Horrible aren't perfect, but I don't think they're all that far-fetched either - someone with ideals trying to do right and ending up heading in a different direction... where Buffy will end up still remains to be seen, obviously.

Thanks!

at least he wasn't a braineating zombie.

Do we know for sure he's not? If he is, I'd almost be prepared to think bringing him back was a good idea. I love zombies. :-)

Preparing to munch. Thanks!
