I got a theory, it could be bunnies

i’m old enough to remember that the buffy tv show is a reboot of the classic 90s movie 👍

[–] GunValkyrie@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's technically a sequel!

i did not know that!

(i’m in the minority and managed to miss out on Buffy the show - it was a period i didn’t have TV)

There are a couple of references to the movie, but they're pretty minor. They basically reference her getting expelled from her old school for burning down the gym, iirc.

I swear Buffy visits the grave of Merrick in the first episode.

We need to hear about a Firefly reboot!

[–] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 18 points 4 days ago (1 children)

We have! They said no.

I refuse to watch this. For the obvious reason. My heart just doesn’t want to go near it.

Whedon isn't involved at if that helps any. Also doubt Nicholas Brendon will be allowed anywhere near it.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

They may be talking about Michelle Trachtenberg

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 6 points 4 days ago

No, but I hadn’t thought of that.
