So, will you have any objection when I kidnap your wife and keep her in a pretty, strewn-with-velvet-pillows cage? I promise I'll give her pretty clothes, craft supplies, and yummy chocolate ...
Generally speaking she's opposed to being held hostage, but if you could slip some large fat novels into the cage as well, she'd probably consider it a privilege.
Psst, Hec misspelled "vacation."

Edit: Wrong Forum. Just hit me 12 hours later. Last night was craxy-making.
Sorry.
I think that auction is actually for an "English Killing Kit."
Very late to the party, but if the pilot and outtake DVD idea turns out feasible, I'd pay materials and shipping fees for a copy as well.
Did you guys see Freddie Prinze Jr. saying "my wife won't make a Buffy movie?" [link]
Hardly news, that, is it?
"It didn't work. That's why [they] made the TV series. It worked much, much better as a TV series," Prinze said.
actually, I don't think this is true. The movie didn't work because execs changed Joss' script/fucked with his vision. When he was at the reins, it was a hit. If it wouldn't work at the movie level, then any two parter would have tanked.
He may be right about SMG not wanting to do it, but I don't think that it "wouldn't work"
And even if it had failed in Joss's hands the first time round, there's no reason I can see that it can't be done
right.
I'm just leery of continuing stories from small screen onto big. Serenity's probably okay -- but that's half a season small.
