Just a thought...

Wasn't going to comment on the news of the Buffy movie (although it can't be worse than the comics, and yay for a female writer who's a big fan), but I just started thinking...

What if Buffy turned into the female version of Bond? That is - an ongoing franchise, with different people tackling it over the years, and feminism at its heart?

I could go for that.

ETA: Not saying this is very likely, but the idea appeals.

Yep, same here. Either that happens at some point or the franchise ended with "Not Fade Away".
*nods* If it doesn't work as a movie, it doesn't work as a movie, and that's that.

Thing is that the feminism bit is very important to me and I'm not sure if that's the concept that'll survive or if it might be "hot chick kills vampires", which in itself doesn't do anything for me.
The writer is an ardent fan, but we all know how studios can destroy things... Ah well. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
