EDITED to add, "on Inara."
Well, aside from the fact that the only people she really seems to have chemistry with are women (Kaylee, Saffron, the councilor woman), the bit with her and that councilor woman is a pretty good indication that she can go both ways. She doesn't have to take a client if she doesn't want to, so I'd imagine that, if she were totally straight, she'd simply pass on women all together. As it is, I think her attraction to Capt. Tightpants is sincere, but she'd be just as capable of falling for a woman.
That's a good point Victor. Even though Inara told the councilor that most of her clients were men, and that for her to take a woman as a client, the woman had to be something special, she also said that sometimes she preferred women.
I guess the key point for me though is that I divorce who she is with because of her job from who she would be with in other parts of her life. I didn't see any real chemistry with Saffron outside of them trying to play one another, and with Kaylee I think it was a big sister/little sister relationship, rather than anything sexual.

Nah, the sexuality discussion's centered here.

Then again, for the Buffistas? Sexuality discussion happens. Wait a bit, one will spring up anywhere.
Ted, about my friend watching Buffy. He despises the show. But then again his favorite show is Friends, so he doesn't really know much at all in my book about television. He would just watch me watching Buffy and shake his head at me, at it, and then laugh at me and say the show was stupid.
He also said that BtVS was a stupid show about "fashion and bad vampires". I have never held back from smacking a person so hard as I did that day.

Well duh - everyone who knows the show knows it's about "bad fashion and vampires". Is your friend culturally dyslexic, perhaps?
WROD...like I said, he worships "Friends".
While Sarah's been the lead more often, pretty much every such movie has vanished at the box office—she's only had really notable success when playing second fiddle to a CGI great dane.
What about Cruel Intentions. She was great in that.
I actually liked Simply Irresistable, but unfortunately I was one of about 5 people who did.
Me too. Though that was partly because of Sean Patrick Flannery, who I have an deep and abiding love for despite the terrible roles he's taken because he is my Young Indiana Jones.

I was gonna say. SMG was smoking in that one. Hell, I first watched that movie to watch her mack on another girl. I watched it a few more times 'cause she's just so great and unBuffy in it.
I'm not sure if Eliza Dushku was a presenter or not....I didn't watch all of the show.
She wasn't. I doubt she was there, actually.
Rayne:
Someone has been posting a script that they think is either an early spec or early draft of the original Buffy movie. (I haven't read it yet.)
It's available here: >[link]
I read that script this weekend.
I am inclined to believe it may actually be a late writers draft. It seemed more"Jossy" here and there where it deviated from the finished movie. Elements such as dusting and more backstory and a different ending, with Pike and Buffy moving beyond the dance are notable. Plus? Whole ending is different, and there's this hole Lothos chamber in the basement of the HS thing...

It is possible. It was stylistically more like the series scripts, enough that I started "seeing" SMG doing the character, instead of KS.
I may post an excerpt in my next post.
However, I may be full of hot air, so... Anyone else? Bueller? Bueller? Clear Eyes?
