Happy Birthday!

Dear Joss Whedon,
Happy Birthday!

Totally not Photoshopped.

You have totaled 48 years of awesome as of today. We didn't get you a gift because we could not think of anything to get you that would outshine the gift of The Avenger's success. Keep on being awesome! -Josh Flowers and Erin Michele Gabbard

p.s. We hope you had a better birthday party than the ones had by your characters.

Great, Whedon gave me another demon. Happy Birthday?

Molar's Avengers

Dear Joss Whedon,

I am that cool.

I saw the Avengers at a midnight screening and it was a lot of fun. The house was packed and the audience verbally loved it. It was like I was watching it with an audio commentary by fan boys...which when I think about it I was. Dolby digital dweeb surround sound speakers of approval.

One of the dweekers.

How does it feel now to have such wide approval? I mean you were never really lacking for it with your dedicated fan base and Buffy. But with reaching this level of international success it must put the biggest smile on your face.

If you got 'em, flaunt 'em.

What a great grin. I hope though it doesn't get out of control. Soon your smile grows so huge that it will be bigger than your face.  It will destroy small cities and enslave the remnants of their populace.

When one day you eventually frown the people will be so unable to adjust to their new found toothless freedom that mass suicides will be reported and many virgins will be sacrificed just to see those pearly whites again.

Just imagine their power after Avengers 2.

 Eventually people will evolve to breath not oxygen but teeth and live off your precious gum nutrients. They will build idols of your molars from your teeth. Wars will be fought with plaque and gingivitis. A root canal will take on an even worse and disturbing meaning. 

You thought dentists were scary now. 

Then...ahem, I believe I got a bit off topic there. What I really wanted to say is that The Avengers was fun and thank you. I saw it with my fellow letter writer Erin Michele Gabbard and we loved it. Here is to your next project! -Josh Flowers.

Her crush.

My crush (like I had a choice).

Dear Joss Whedon,
I was only a tyke when Buffy: The Vampire Slayer was made into a movie and not quite old enough to stop watching the Disney channel when the show finally came out. 

But when I finally did find Buffy through midnight reruns I knew I had found more than just a show. I found a wonderful world that would speak to many different age groups for years to come. 
I am not one of those people who knows a film by who directed it. You were the first and only director/creator of a show who's career I follow. 
I look forward to many more wonderful things of your doing.


Sincerely,
Erin Michele

P.S. I am in The Avengers. Ya know where Loki tells all the people to kneel? I am the blonde front and center. If you like my work there give me a call and we will talk about what I can do for your next project.

Dear Joss Whedon,
Thank you for The Avengers! Best birthday gift ever!
I mean it's no weapons chest or arm of judge but I'm pretty happy with it.
First time my face will be on a very large screen and you are directing.
This is from when I had to put curlers in so the hair people could go faster. I think I made more of a mess.

Anyway, even though I couldn't score a sweet preview ticket like Flowers (my co-writer) I am really excited to see it at midnight on thursday/friday. It is bound to be amazing. 

Thanks for being terrific,

Erin Michele

Dear Joss Whedon,
Soon I leave to see a preview screening of the Avengers. I hope my fellow Joss Whedon letter writer, Erin Michele Gabbard is featured prominently. 

Although only a lowly extra I hope she is at least listed as "EXTRA" in all caps. 

My next wish, slightly under my first, is that the movie is awesome. Talk to you soon.  -Josh Flowers

p.s. Thank you for putting her in the trailer (1:23) at least.


 
p.s. My second wish is only lower because I know the movie will be awesome, heh.

Dear Joss Whedon,

I think I used to kind of hate you. Well not hate but there was definitely a lot of avoiding on my part. You just invaded geekdom so quickly and I could not handle it. I was a geekly antibody and viewed you as a virus rather than a friend. There were just too many mentions of the word "Buffy" AKA bacteria floating around. But I think part of the real problem was vampires.

Besides Nosferatu, Count Duckula and a Dracula view-master slide, I have always loathed vampires. To me if monsters were high school then vampires would be the cool rich kid. The one who was assured success simply by coming out of the womb. Not that I am putting down emerging from a womb. I mean it is tough work. I have only done it once and it took me the better part of nine months, but I just think there should be more to success than a last name. Vampires were too cool. I wanted to punch them in the face with my foot. With that being said I now realized it should have turned me on to Buffy much quicker, I mean she is a vampire slayer after all. I however was not. So when did it all change? Firefly. A short lived western sci-fi television program. Which you followed up with Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. You cannot even begin to work the brain muscles to dislike a guy who created a superhero musical.

I have given in. I am no longer sick of you but am now sick with you. My immune system has fallen to Whedonitis and I hope I never recover. I am sorry I did not give in to you for so long. Being that the Avengers will be released shortly I can only see this infirmary getting even more crowded. Bring on the sickness Mr. Whedon. Being well is too boring. I hope you are having a great day Mr.Whedon. -Josh Flowers

p.s. I will let you know how awesome I thought Avengers is after the midnight 3D imax screening. If you would like for me to see it sooner, I would not object, heh.
