Apparently, the people who directed the Buffy movie (starring Kristie Swanson) have retained the rights to future movies, and are now going to be shooting a new one. Without Joss Whendon!! OMG WTH?!?! You can't seriously think about making a movie without the man who's responsible for creating the whole fandom being a part of it!!
Here's the articles I came across just now when I checked my email:
Buffy Relaunching Without Whedon, Gellar...Regard for Fans? news.yahoo.com/s/eonline/20090526/en_movies_eo/125695
A 'Buffy' movie without its maker? Joss Whedon speaks out! ausiellofiles.ew.com/2009/05/a-joss-less-buf.html
I can understand them not going with SMG, if she's not willing/able to do a movie. I can see going with a new Slayer, but you can't possibly do it without Joss, and it be any good! It's impossible!! UGG!
Did anyone else here watch the series, or enjoy the first movie? If so, what are your thoughts? I think this could be a BAD idea. :/

I -love- that all these Vampire series and movies are popping up right after the phenomena that is Twilight. The CW is launching a new one this fall called The Vampire Diaries, I believe.
But back to the point.
It's kind of sad... that SMG won't be in it. Or David either =D. Now come on we all want a motion picture film with Buffy and Angel... right?
Well anyway. I kind of don't see the point of them doing this without her. I'm speaking just from what I've seen so don't jump my bones if I'm wrong on anything. But from what I've seen SMG really 'boosted' the fandom with the series, and what other storylines are they trying to create without any of the cast? Granted there was an original Buffy movie... and there are the comics, but without continuing it from something it's like... they are trying to create something so ooc for the fandom why even bother?
I mentioned above about new Vamp series and stuff, so why not try and create something completely new, instead of trying to continue the fandom without even continuing what is that very fandom.
And without the original creator, wtf is up with that?
