Whedon prefers that approach for himself, too; he’ll head to a restaurant with his Pilot Razor Points and listen to movie soundtracks while composing scripts by hand. He is a showrunning vet (at one point he was in control of "Angel," "Firefly" and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"), but Whedon says that doesn’t make him experienced.
