Interesting side note: Apparently George Lucas and his kids are Joss Whedon fans.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

I choose to believe that this means they really like the Buffy movie, and only the Buffy movie, because it's the only thing that makes sense.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Oh, they probably like Alien: Ressurection, too.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I don't know. I've seen a lot of fanfic out there that's worse (and completely misses the point more) than Clones.
Lucas just gets a budget for his badfic.

Amen. I got hit on recently by a guy who keyed on the fact that I'm a Buffy fan. Things went OK until he started telling me about the outline for Buffy Season 8 that he mailed to Joss (and was angry that it didn't immediately get filmed). Thankfully, I hadn't given out a phone number. Would that I'd given a pseudonym...

All is well that ends in pizza.
Oh geez Matt. That's scary.

Tell me about it. I mean, I've bitched about how I'd have preferred certain storylines to work out before, but I didn't mail notes directly to Joss and expect them to be acted upon.
Add to that, dude commiserated with me about being disappointed by Cordelia's departure, but because he loved it back when they were making her into a kickass super-powerful glowy saintly character and thinks she should have become a new Slayer too and Angel's girlfriend instead of moving to Comaville.

The evil is this way?
Oye. Matt, I hope the guy looked hot, because otherwise, there's little redeeming social value there. (GlowWorm!Cordy? ::shudder::)

So-so, but luckily my knee is essentially healed and I can run a six minute mile again.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
George Lucas' daughters were such big Buffy (the tv show) fans that George arranged an onset visit and meet with Joss, as I recall.
