*Avengers has Marvel, Robert Downey Jr, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner, Samuel L Jackson all holding Whedon's strings. In short he's got people with bigger egos and much more talent on top of him. Then again, the trailer reminds me a bit too much of a Michael Bay Transformer's Flick for its own good.
* Cabin in the Woods has Drew Goddard directing and co-writing...you remember Drew? He's the guy who worked on Lost, is JJ Abrhams current scribe, and worked on some decent Buffy episodes. OTOH...he also wrote and directed the unwatchable Cloverfield.
* Much Ado...is written by Shakespeare...so it's just Whedon's direction and the actors you have to concern yourself with.
And the Buffy comic is the worst story ever to appear in print in the entire history of humanity; it makes even Left Behind look good (well, less awful) in comparison.
Haven't read Left Behind...so can't comment. But I will go on record and state that I think Twilight may actually be worse...then again I admittedly couldn't make it past the first fifty pages.;-)
