Buffy vs. Twilight series

I've been meaning to post about this. It's not about Buffy per se, but Joss recently discussed the villain in (our) comic having a similar name to this hugely popular series, "Twilight". His actual quote was this:

So far, in the dozen-plus issues that have come out, Buffy and her slayers are up against Twilight, who wants to bring an end to magic because he believes that the slayer activation caused a major imbalance between good and evil. (This Twilight, however, is not related to the other series about a girl in love with a vampire. "It wasn't actually an original idea, so I can't say, 'Oh, "Twilight," they stole it from us,' because when it comes to star-crossed lovers, honestly, who else is she going to love?" Whedon said. "Besides, vampires are sexy.")

That's taken from this article about season 8:

Sucks for Charisma - having all her dirty laundry aired out here

Bad enough you have to get divorced, but now everyone and their mother knows every little detail. Sheesh. At least she has some work...she's going to be on that "Greek" show again. I guess she's a recurring character now.

If Dawn ever wanted to visit Conner at College or vice versa....

David Boreanaz is possibly a douche

Yeah, I don't know what to say about this translation. Check this article, per Michelle. She wasn't sure if we should add this desecration to our blog (especially if it's a false rumor)...but the translation is so hilarious, that I made the executive decision to add it. I mean, just read this lusciously engrish translated bit for a taste of the fun:

David Boreanaz thus obviously definitively turned the page on his role of nozzle of blood in the large heart. Difficult of more on this subject since the interested party refused to justify himself as for this decision.

His role of nozzle of blood in the large heart? Lol. Read the full translation below:

But it looks like Boreanaz does not want to give us what we want. He's become too good for us and the show that made him famous. I think Michelle's biggest fear of posting it - is that it really is true, and she'd be the bearer of the evil news. I will do it for you, innocent one. Maybe it'll lessen the break of the nozzle of blood in your large heart.

Vote for Buffy!

Can Buffy beat Thor...You decide.

Strangely, all of these are a bunch of "What if" lists.

Alice Movie Update

I'm so confused. In this article, it talks of SMG no longer being involved with the Alice project:

http://www.shocktillyoudrop.com/news/topnews.php?id=6705

In this older article it claims that SMG (and I guess the Prinze) own the rights to the film, and states that she said will "write it herself if she has to" though "she may be too old to play Alice.":

here's the official Interview that apparently came from (even though it said SciFi Wire in the previous article):

Hmm. What to believe, what to believe.

Repo! The Genetic Opera trailer

Looks like ASH is basically the main character in this (the Repo man). Too bad Paris Hilton is in it. Not that I'm bashing her per se, it's just that it's more likely that it will be perceived as a joke and get the wrong type of publicity, than the cult-y thing it's trying to be. But you never know...the "Saw" guy does have a strong following.

Happy 4th of July from Buffy and Angel!

This one's even better!

Final Fantasy does I've got a theory! This is so geeky. Michelle isn't going to have a clue what's going on here and I do only to a limited extent...but I know enough to know. I know enough.

Silly and weird: I've Got a Theory ~ Disney Style

It's weird, but I like it!

The philosophy of Buffy's hair

Yup, it's all about the hair over the years here. Check it out:

Buffy Summers is #1 on IGN’s list of "Sci-Fi Babes"

The Slayer is proof-positive that one doesn’t need lazer guns or logic-spouting aliens to bleed over into a sci-fi context. Remember, at the beginning of our trek across the known Babe galaxy, we said that if Blockbuster can put Buffy in the "Sci-Fi Section", then so can we. And justifiably so. While broadening the range of what science fiction usually incorporates, the girl made "girl power" cool, if not a terrifying responsibility and power in the hands of a sixteen-year-old girl. What could have been just another high schooler who spouts wit and stakes monsters-of-the-week, turned into a tragic hero.

Still not convinced? Fine. You try loving the one thing your purpose on this earth says you have to kill, and then deal with your vampire boyfriend going ten different kinds of evil on you because you slept with him, gave him a moment of pure bliss the curse on his soul says he cannot have, and then see if you have the sterner stuff to fight the not-so-good fight – for a total of seven. Years.

Buffy may not have been abducted by aliens, or assimilated by Borg, or even know what "DRAIDUS contact" means, but she knows what it takes to be a hero. She knows what it takes to be more than just a pretty face and killer of those that kill. And whatever that is, it’s enough for the number one slot.
