The Whedon version, was super - Amy Acker was great, very lively action, and it was the version of Much Ado I've found easiest to follow. The modern setting mostly worked well, thought the princes didn't really transfer. Giggled and snorted and clutched my jaw throughout. Masses of funny details and physical comedy. Nathan Fillion is special. Felt like 80 minutes, not the full 107. Not sure what was more arch - the eyebrows, the dialogue, or Cupid's bow.

Lots of familiar faces from Whedon's work - more if I'd watched Dollhouse.

I wonder about an episode "Much Ado About Buffy" based on the line "She was only dead, my lord, as long as her slander lived" where some supernatural creature gets the idea that with remorse or restitution one's actions are reverted, and all over the world people (Jenny Calendar, Tara) come back to life...

Apocalypse Now today, which apparently is the cinema's Fathers Day Special.
