Buffy Was Better When It Was A Movie With Kristy Swanson
Bwah! I have never actually heard a person seriously express that opinion, and I've been active in Buffy fandom since before we knew Angel was a vampire. I suspect I'd have to know Fran Rubel Kuzui personally for that not to be the case.
One of my friends sincerely believes the movie is better but he a) has watched very little Buffy and b) hates non-episodic tv (The Battlestar Gallactica and New Dr. Who make him crazy, he mostly watches meTV now).
I'm enjoying their avid discussion of the effect of soul-having on vampires.
"I THOUGHT ABOUT THIS SO HARD WHEN I WAS FIFTEEN, LET ME TELL YOU."
All of those comments are perfect.

I can't really argue with that point, but it does't change my love for Dru. Plus, she was the best BtVs-verse vampire. THE BEST.
I am so happy she's the one vampire we know made it out of both series still undead!
Of all the Whedon damaged "crazy" women characters who talk in sing song nursey rhyme cryptic clues, Juliet Landau was by far the best actor.
Yeah, see! She's no dummy.
