So what do you guys think about this new movie idea? Apparently with the success of Twilight and such, they are making a new "Buffy" movie - but without Buffy, or anyone else for that matter.
It isn't a sequel, or a prequel, and it doesn't have anything to do with the Buffyverse as we know it. It is set in Sunnydale but is a "relaunch" of the Buffyverse with new people.
Also, as of now, Joss Whedon is NOT involved.

As for the movie, I doubt it will ever be made. I read about it online earlier tonight, and it sounded like one of the dumbest ideas imaginable. Buffy the Vampire Slayer without Sarah Michelle Gellar, Joss Whedon, or any of the ACTUAL CHARACTERS is a joke. _________________

A Fray movie might be interesting. Or a Vi movie (but mainly because I like Felicia Day ;)) _________________ Listening to you I get the music

What I read is that it's gonna be a remake of the original 1992 movie. _________________ Listening to you I get the music

If Joss isn't involved, I'm pretty much not interested. Unless it was something like some of the major writer/producers wanted to do something and Joss gave them the ok.
While I would love to see the actors/characters from the TV series that wouldn't be a deal breaker for me.
Actually, I would go see it regardless (unless of course Joss told me not to.. haha) I just wouldn't expect too much of it. But if "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" is on the bill, I'll be there. _________________
What I read was an article on E! which I would guess is somewhat reliable. Apparently Fran Rubel Kuzui and her husband Kaz Kuzui have had the rights to Buffy since when the movie was made and they are behind the talk of the new movie.
I really think what made this show so good was in large due to Joss Whedon and his amazing writing and direction of the show. I would just hate to have something as well done and amazing as Buffy brought into this next decade just to appeal to 12 year olds who had never heard of the show prior.
I work at a movie theater and I swear, if Joss says the movie is gonna suck then I'll refuse to sell tickets! =P _________________ I can't wait to tell my friends. They don't have a rock this big.
