Noch ein Dr. Horrible-Review
Da drüben:
It’s impossible to compare Dr. Horrible to other independent web productions, because while it emulates the style of low-budget amateur, it’s doing so with professional resources: When a project is shooting on studio backlots and has VFX house Zoic Studios (Firefly, Battlestar Galactica) creating its effects, it’s hard to embrace it as guerrilla. But at its core, Dr. Horrible is a story of transformation, beginning with a hero who isn’t quite yet heroic, and a villain who hasn’t yet achieved true villainy. Perhaps there’s a metaphor there in the constantly evolving state of online video: A place that’s fun to play, but eventually demands real commitment.
