Info on the reboot here.
So...I haven't been on LJ in almost two weeks, or maybe it's more like one...but anyway, I have no idea if anyone has posted anything about this/talked about it yet.
Maybe two years ago, I would have said "NO!! Not without Joss!!" But considering the work he's done lately...
Well, I'm curious, honestly. Sure, I'd feel better if it were in the hands of a really awesome fan fic writer or a couple of them together, cause at least then I'd know for sure what I was getting, but I'm not going to veto it down and automatically deem it terrible without having seen it. This will just be like, another AU Buffy.
(And for the record, I''m one of those few who LOVED the movie with Kristy Swanson and Luke Perry as is."
Here's
a link to Joss' reaction.
And here's my reaction to some of his quotes...
Joss: "“This is a sad, sad reflection on our times, when people must feed off the carcasses of beloved stories from their youths..."
I have to say that that's how I feel about Joss' BtVS comics. Particularly what he's done to Angel.
Joss: "But seriously, are vampires even popular any more?"
Um, has he been under a rock?
Joss: "I don’t love the idea of my creation in other hands..."
It's not doing too well in his own at the moment :/
Joss: "I can, however, take this time to announce that I’m making a Batman movie. Because there’s a franchise that truly needs updating. So look for The Dark Knight Rises Way Earlier Than That Other One And Also More Cheaply And In Toronto, rebooting into a theater near you. Leave me to my pain!
Sincerely, Joss Whedon.”
