Yup. He is also infamous for under-cutting serious moments with a joke. And we get that in this trailer. Bearded guy is about to be crowned or something and he says, "Sh! Sh! I
do love this part!"
Very Whedonesque. Take what should be a serious, moving scene and play it for nyuk-nyuks. That can sometimes work once. After that, it makes me want to strangle the writer. It's like a toddler who says something that makes his parents so laugh, so he keeps saying it and saying it and saying it and saying it and saying it and saying it. What was once funny is now infuratingly annoying.
