apparently the tv/movie industry is trying to ruin everything it ever created... remakes and 'reboots' (a la star trek) galore! money, money, money, money, MONEY!!!
i didn't think much of it before when they were slaying shows i had no interest in like 90210, melrose place, dukes of hazard, etc. but now they're setting their sights on something a little too close to home.
they want to do another buffy the vampire slayer movie!
it's supposed to be a prequel-sequel... kinda like the new star trek...
"One of the underlying ideas of "Buffy" allows [them] to do just that: that each generation has its own vampire slayer to protect it. The goal would be to make a darker, event-sized movie that would, of course, have franchise potential."
on the 'THEM' team is the original movie director fran rubel kuzui...
so the original from way back in 1992 was super-campy and horrible as anything but i still sit and watch it every time i see it on tv! but the camp it all part of what makes buffy (movie or tv) so good! i don't think a darker direction would work.
i love, love, LOVE the tv series and would hate to see anything that is going to try and re-write what it did and how much i enjoyed it.
but i guess someone feels that with all the hype over some other vampire movies, that striking while the iron is hot is the best thing to do...
