I describe television as feminine and movies as masculine, in the sense that television wants to examine a problem from all sides and talk about it for a long time, and movies just want to hit the climax and then maybe have a smoke.
Joss WhedonI think Spider-Man [film], the first one particularly, really figured out the formula of, "Oh, tell the story that they told in the comic. It was compelling. That's why it's iconic."
Joss WhedonI loved the idea of a girl going into a dark alley, and a monster comes, and then she just aces him. Itโs like, you want to see the tiny person suddenly take control. God, my whole career is basically about that!
