Another Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie?

Another Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie? Without Joss Whedon…

Check out the story here...

((A new incarnation of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" could be coming to the big screen.
"Buffy" creator Joss Whedon isn't involved and it's not set up at a studio, but Roy Lee and Doug Davison of Vertigo Entertainment are working with original movie director Fran Rubel Kuzui and her husband, Kaz Kuzui, on what is being labeled a remake or relaunch, but not a sequel or prequel.))

Hold the phone, so they’re doing this with the guy that reinvented Buffy in the first place and made it a popular series. I guess they can do that, but what made both the first movie and the series special was the writing from Whedon.

I felt the series was pretty good and had a devoted fan base. Why start over again?

But what about Star Trek?

You see, Rick Berman and Braga ran the franchise into the ground and most people would agree with that. Buffy wasn’t really like that. I just feel if you’re going to make a Buffy movie at least keep it in the same continuity.

I’m sure you could get Sarah Michelle Gellar back, because like her hubby, she ain’t doing much.

Side Note: Here is an repost for the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Animated Series. The animation is pretty good for its time.

I just don't know why they'd want to restart the series, when the show was successful and the show is in a form of a reboot/recon anyway.
