Yes, but this is a full-grown thing.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
That would be really awesome; I'm trying to cast it now in my mind.
Join the crowd! Haaaaa, one of them cast Feed with Muppets.
I forget who she said she'd cast most recently. I think they were people I didn't know from shows I don't watch.
I liked the suggestion about Mel Gibson as Tate, except that I wouldn't want to give the man more money.
But I would love to hate him.
George would be super-hard to cast, but ITA with Jensen Ackles as Shaun, and Fillion as Ryman. Although casting Fillion in something that doesn't use his quirky humor more is almost a waste. If he were 15 years younger, I'd say Shaun.
Damn, my livejournal account is SO OLD, but I might have to play. Because even though it would involve dyeing her blonde (anathema!), I love Felicia Day as Buffy.
Cornelia Funke's Top Ten Fairytales. A good selection.
I know JZ was fond of one (title escapes me) that had a very good, not-wicked-in-the-least step-sister.
Kate Crackernuts. Wicked stepmother ruins the princess and heir to the throne (turns her pretty face into a sheep's head), and ugly stepsister, instead of thanking her, says, "You know, Mom, I never asked you to do that for me, and frankly it was kind of shitty of you. I think we're done here. Come on, kid, let's go fix you up." She tosses a veil over her poor bleating stepsister's horrid head and off they go, until they find a castle with two convenient princes, one of whom is being seduced by fairies and on the point of death. Kate cheerfully takes over, is practical and clever all over the place, and breaks the enchantments on both the prince and her sister, and it all ends in a double wedding because the prince's brother has fallen in love with the formerly sheep-headed sister (while Kate was being clever, they were off wandering the palace grounds communicating with nods and notes and sign language) and the rescued prince has fallen in love with Kate, because even though she's an ugly stepsister she is obviously MADE OF AWESOME.
I really want this to be Disney's next princess movie.
Love the story ... but you know, if Disney gets hold of it, Kate would get prettied-up at the end.
It sounds to me like she gets prettied-up in the story.
Kate is never prettied up. She's uglier than her pretty stepsister at the beginning, she is prettier-by-comparison (but still objectively ugly) while her stepsister has a sheep's head, and when she fixes everything up her stepsister is back to pretty and she's back to ugly. And she still rescues the boy and marries him.
Oh, right, Kate is the non-sheep head one.
A little wool-gathering going on?
