There is nothing quite like playing "Who's on First" with a mental sloth.
Pointless.

you're insulting me ( or attempting to ) simply because you don't like the truth.
Huh.

You know what the difference between JOSS and TRUMP is??
One is a MOVIE DIRECTOR, one has a mental illness and nuclear codes.
Joss really has no responsibility to be a moral example BUT A PRESIDENT SHOULD.
Pointing out Joss's THREE WHOLE stupid internet babblings (in a sad attempt to prove one-sided moral righteousness) and not taking the year and a half to acknowledge Trumps' over 1200 RECORDED LIES is the epitome of HYPOCRISY.
YOU ARE A BRAINWASHED HYPOCRITE. End of.

This was never a Joss vs Trump issue.
It was about Joss as a hypocrite. And a fraud.
* And there are far more examples of Joss proving himself to be a fraud than 3 internet babblings.
Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen

I just read the news, I often got mad at the tweets Joss wrote but I never wanted this. I said I'd never come back here but I just want all to know as a Browncoat I hope Joss gets over this. Thanks HAKEN, you'll never give up, keep flying.

I don't think there's anything for Joss to ' get over' , to be honest. It's who he is, who he's always been, we're just seeing his true self. Aside from his personal life, there's been some rumblings from actors who worked w/ him on the direction he wanted to take certain characters. And yes, I get it, actors and directors don't always see eye to eye. It's not a crime against humanity. It happens. But when different folks from different shows recall the same sorts of issues...it's not just them.
What ever gnaws at Joss in his mind, I will credit him for turning it into some damn impressive work. This fan cite, and the time I've spent focusing on Firefly ( primarily ) and Buffy / Angel ( slightly lesser degree ) ... that's not me. I don't follow any other shows, fan pages or such. Save for Tolkien, I'm off in the real world, as it were. And sure, while I am a fan of 'sci-fi' , in general, it was and is never more than a bit of escapism. Watch it, enjoy it and then move on.
But to me, Firelfy ...it's just different. It's more than 44 minutes of diversion.
And that's why it bugs me to see Joss go sideways so publically. But it is what it is.

His ex-wife has caused some damage, but Joss has gone from directing mega hit films to now working on "Justice League" on the CW and writing the film "Batgirl", I just hope he doesn't end up doing rehash reboots like J.J. Abrams. He should go back to FOX sit down with Tim Manear and stay off twitter. I don't know who's gone more bat shit crazy, him or Judd Aptow. As for him being difficult to work with, I don't care, from what I've heard, MARVEL is run by assholes and many directors won't work for them, plus many actors are also assholes. And I hate to say this but I read the Captain can be a real pain in the ass on and off the set
Firefly, Buffy and Angel are history, it's time for Joss to get off twitter, go back to FOX and call Tim. He needs to get away from comic book super hero's...AND STAY OFF TWITTER!!

The ex caused him damage, as I suspect he did to her. Probably would have helped if he didn't cheat on her, but who knows if both played that game ? Sounds like he was doing it for quite some time... hadn't heard who it was with, or if they were actresses. Seems like that news would have gotten out. Maybe in time, it will.
I think Joss has gotten to a level of fame and status that he can't be told what to do. Kinda like a certain President. Telling him to stay off twitter is futile. Simply not gonna happen. Unless you set up a go-fund me drive to BUY twitter, and then block him ? Yeah, crazy.
