Whedon talks DR. HORRIBLE sequel

I've already gone on record with my suspicion that a sequel to Dr. Horrible's Singalong Blog could be a horrible idea... And it sounds like Joss Whedon shares some of my concern. Speaking with SCI FI Wire, he said that the short film's Emmy nod makes him more enthusiastic about a sequel, but also less sure about the prospect.

"Well, (the nomination) certainly doesn't slow us down, does it? We have been in, and continue actively to contemplate (it). We're all extremely busy, but we're all really motivated. This is just ... yet another moment of going, 'My God.' This is the kind of thing, you know, that is, ... just the effect is snowballing. And, in a way, it makes you a little skittish. It's like, we don't want to do a Horrible that's horrible. You know? We don't want to blow it (...) It's like, yeah, it could be great, or it could be Arthur 2. We don't know. But at the same time, it motivates me, not only work in the Horrible realm, and also, just, who doesn't want to play with those guys? But just generally, I'm very anxious to do more stuff on the Internet, either with other people or just in my own small capacity."
