Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.
I miss 1st season Angel too.
So! Young!
I LOVE the original movie script. Parts of the execution suck, but I still greatly like the movie for silliness reasons.
Oh, I still have great fondness for the movie. I loved it when I first saw it, and in hindsight, it's all because of the Jossiness of it. The parts that are the most Joss-like are the parts that I like about the movie.
For example....
Paul Reuben's death
Best! Death! Evar!
Willow says she can't talk much around a guy she likes, but she seems pretty articulate around Xander.
Our first catwalk scene.
::looks for Ple's notes::
Buffy's already burdened by the responsibility from the get-go.
I guess they had to drop the bit about her being able to sense vampires, or else Angel wouldn't have been able to fool her.
That's my guess. In many ways though, the Master arc of Season 1 is essentially the same arc as the movie.
Really pushing the "protesting too much" thing with Buffy about Angel.
Heh. "You're like a textbook with arms."
That's not even in the top three hundred lines of the show (or this season), but it's still pretty good. So many excellent throwaways.
TO THE GIANT GOSSIP PHONE!
"Excuse me. I have to call everyone I have ever met, right now."
Best! Death! Evar!
It's currently tied with Nicky Katt's in SIN CITY for me. Oh, and Jared Leto's in AMERICAN PSYCHO, but that's almost all Christian Bale, though Leto's drunken befuddlement is amusing.
