I was at Comic-Con for the Joss talk (like last year), but I missed the Joss/JJ talk. Last year the love in the room was incredible. I thought people would trash the place in ecstatic frenzy. Dollhouse had just been renewed, so that was a big part of it.
This year, Dollhouse is canceled, the release of Cabin in the Woods is on indefinite delay, and Joss' first statement was that Scott Allie was co-writing the final arc of Season 8. The crickets were loud indeed. I'm sure that some people are thrilled about The Avengers, but his core fansI don't see the feminist angle there.
There could have been extenuating circumstances for people's lack of enthusiasm, such as the stupidly long wait times, but the difference was remarkable.
