What Is Mia Made Of is a website wherein The One True b!X writes about Goners, a Joss Whedon motion picture languishing deep in development hell at Universal Pictures.
Its title is a very obscure inside reference to a website about the movie Serenity which was called River Is Made Of Chocolate, itself a reference to an edition of the web comic Penny Arcade which spurred an ongoing series of fake spoilers for that movie. Something of a new, and coincidental, perspective on the title arose when, in February 2006, Joss described the movie as being “in the Buffy-mode of discovering strength”, bringing to mind the notion of finding out what one’s made of.
After a nearly three-year absence, the site was revived in 2011, primarily due to remarks Joss made during a visit to Australia in August 2010 in which he suggested that Goners might be revisited after he completes work on The Avengers.
In the event that Joss no longer says much of anything about the movie itself — since arguably he’s said just enough over the past six years — this site primarily will serve as a repository for information on development and production. It is not meant to be a site of spoilers and speculation.
Neither this website nor its author has any affiliation with Mutant Enemy, Inc. or Universal Pictures, although in his fantasy life he remains open to managing a web and social media presence for the former.
