Whedon is known for his sarcastic and witty commentary within the dialogue. This is apparent in the television show, <em>Buffy the Vampire Slayer<\/em>, when the main groups of heroes or villains gather together to have a discussion prior to their crime. From the perspective of the viewers\u2019, this scene is supposed to be a serious discussion on how they will defeat the mayor. But in true Whedon fashion, he incorporates some sarcastic\/witty humor within commentary. When the Scooby Gang is mentioning the plans to Buffy, they state that her idea is insane and they are not entirely sure it will work. Immediately following this discussion, Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) states, \u201cI don\u2019t think it could be possible to come up with a crazier plan,\u201d Oz (Seth Green) says, \u201cWe attack the mayor with hummus.\u201d Which helps ease the tension within the gang and keeps everyone optimistic. In addition to the scene\u2019s dialogue, the sequences editing is a key example to Whedon\u2019s style. When it comes to the gang\u2019s conversations, Whedon\u2019s uses continuity editing; like the 180-degree rule, establishing shot, shot\/reverse shot, and sound bridge; throughout the conversation. Viewers can also observe Whedon\u2019s format of a group conversation within his film, <em>The Avengers<\/em>. In this scene, the heroes are at the SHIELD\u2019s Helocarrier discussing their next strategy on how to get the teserac back after capturing Loki. Whedon\u2019s style is easily transparent within his films and television shows, which encourages the audience to become his followers and active viewers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Through the examination of the season 3 finale, Graduation Day: Part 2, of Buffy the Vampire Slayer the viewer can gain an understanding of Whedon\u2019s sarcastic style of writing in his film or television shows.
