I would actually prefer a total reboot with a new cast than to see them try to continue the tv show. It'd just be too complicated. I don't think the
actual idea of a fresh start is a bad one. It's the only way to get anyone who's not a hardcore fan into the theater. And if they did this like the
Star Trek or Batman reboots, it could be awesome. But they won't. They'll try to do it cheap and rush it to cash in on Twilight. It'll be about
Buffy and the mysterious hot guy in her chemistry class, Edgar. He glows in the sun!

Not to be too contrarian, but now that I think about it a bit more, why not?
At the end of Buffy, dozens of new slayers were unleashed in the world. Why can't this new series just follow a new slayer around, while still be in the Whedonverse (even with no Whedon)? Pippy the Slayer or something.... None of the prior characters need necessarily be used, with the exception of Giles. (Didn't he take over for the council after they were all killed?) I'm not saying I applaud this idea, but it doesnt sound as ridiculous as it first sounded. If she were a comic book character (oh wait, she is...) she would be written by a variety of different authors. It need not be a cheap ripoff. Except, of course, we all know it will be because we all know why they're thinking about it (thank you, Twilight). |

But even with the comic boook Joss oversees it much like he did as a showrunner.

They're idiots then! They should just go with my idea and pay me royalties.

I can't imagine it as a movie.
If they want vampires there are tons of popular vampire teen novels out there they could do. No reason to ruin buffy. Now if they were to have a new series that would be great, but the original buffy movie was horrid, I can't imagine how they could do a second movie and have it work. |

Kennedy was HAWT! I'm down with that. And Trachtenberg's legal now, so that's a go too. I'm co-signing your (facetious) post.

What if they set in the past and we had that deceptively earnest Chinese slayer that Spike killed during the Boxer Rebellion or sumthin'?
Toss in a young Darla somehow and I'd see it on opening day.

I'll give you 10 to 1 odds they've already decided they want Hayden Panetierre for the role of Buffy.

You know, Hayden as younger pre-scooby gang buffy would not be bad IMO. ETA: But if they change how vampires are dusted and the "look" of them I will
be VERY FUCKING ANGRY.

I'm having a Buffy Marathon (which is totally irritating my husband and my five year old has been playing vampire
Angel was a total waste of space in season three. Love Angel and the show was great but after he came back he should have left town right away. I think it's the regular extra characters that really make the show. Spike, Anya, Harmony, Dru. They were all best when they were new and on the sidelines (well Anya never got old). And it was when we started seeing too much of them that they got annoying. Even Dawn was entertaining for a while. |
