I saw on Bounding into Comics that a “richly diverse” Buffy reboot was cancelled or put on pause. Somebody in the comments made a good point that he wished that show had aired since a good number of Buffy fans are in the woke/sjw category they can see how it feels to have something they like get ruined. If I’m not mistaken I think this was the show that Anita Sarkessian was complaining about. Odd since complaining about her negative influence on a hobby is bad but she can complain when it’s something she actually cares about. Maybe I give her too much credit but I blame her and Zoe for everything wrong with gaming in the past few years. Or at least corporations taking her idiotic ideas seriously
To be fair I have heard the Buffy tv show was pretty good. I haven’t seen the movie either.
Who needs another reboot/remake ?
After all we already had the full Beckie series where Beckie kills monsters, furry Beckie fucks a vampire, three Beckies are witches, Beckie is a she zombie and Beckie is a lust demon.
What one was this? I don't remember vampires in that canadian bitch show. Are are you talking about that spinoff of a spinoff about some reincarnated piece of wood that couldn't decide which vampire brother she wanted to fuck?
Sidenote: Anyone else thrilled the all-female Supernatural got taken out back and shot? All these woke cunts complaining that the one show where two/three guys were the leads had almost no female reoccurring characters. One fucking show out of over a dozen with aching vaginas (because the female lead was always jumping on a different dick each week) and they couldn't even let that exist without bitching about it endlessly.
My references : Buffy , True Blood, Charmed , i-Zombie, Gone Girl
My point: It is the same fucking character, a Beckie
Oh, I forgot about True Blood. I was talking about Bitten.
I completely agree. Same bitch, different body.
Why do they keep repeatedly beating supernatural corspe
Reminds me of the Power Slut Girls reboot.
Here is the thing. Buffy is not old enough to warrant a reboot so it's more understandable for people now.
Not like that stops the woke parasites.
Bruh it's 20 years old.
It is. But it's not like kids nowadays can't understand what's going on. That argument can be made for movies made in the 60s or whatever, but Buffy is not unaccessible culturally.
Where do kids have a hard time understanding what's going on with older movies? Is it because they'd be constantly whining about "where's his cell phone"? Cold War dynamics?
I mean, I never had any problem following stuff from my grandma's day, or dealing with seeing horses and buggies and kids in gingham (ugh, gross), who actually DID live a different lifestyle (more rural, enough to have a horse and a "swimming hole" that didn't burn your eyes with chlorine) .... the only thing was recognizing all the old actors Bugs Bunny made reference to (and I'm sure today's kids will have the same problem with OG Animaniacs.)
That shitshow had literally nothing to do with Sabrina, other than the name and le witches.
I don't even know why they called it the same, it was so different tonally, the lore, they changed around fucking Salem! The best character in the original.
I tried watching the Sabrina reboot. Couldn't finish the first episode.
Had a laugh at the progressive writers casually making Sabrina sexually-assault the guy struggling to get away from her when she was trying to mind-rape him to erase his memory.
I stopped watching when the extremely xenophobic, gate-keeping, purity focussed witchs covenant somehow had 2010 USA racial diversity.
There is also, oh irony a ''rape-culture'' plot point (totally glossing over what Sabrina did, it's about a chick in school getting struggle-snuggles.).
They took the name, but the show had barely anything to do with the original.
Buffy is super-fun, but I watched it in French, so I wasn't exposed to the 'like, so, like, like it was so, like cool, right?' aspect of it. The French dub made the serious scenes twice as good as the paltry actors could make them.
The stupid thing about making Buffy 'woke' is that... so many cultures have mythologies of odd human-like creatures. They could make a wonderful zombie series based in Haiti, for instance. Or Asuras in India. Or Windagos in the USA. But our creatives are obviously spiritually bankrupt.
I'm a bit astonished that nobody has mined the rest of the world to construct a supernatural-type show. There must by 100 million hispanics in the US. Do something with a 'chupacabra' or la llorena!
I’ve been saying that for years. Just like there is folklore from all over the world but they would rather take some European folklore/mythology and race swap
Yeah they're purposefully sitting on lore and fans just look at star wars and lotr. It's not about "diversity" it's about destroying the things they deem loved by too many white people and/or men
Yea I came to that conclusion a while back because there are a massive amount of stories from around the world
Chinese kitsune (worse than the Japanese version), even.
As for the Valley Girl speak, that was actually a big part of knowing Buffy and her friends were nothing but ding-dongy mallrats at the beginning.
I'm not really sure what your first sentence means. I only know 'kitsune' from Teen Wolf!
As for your second: When I watched Buffy, I was a bit too old to want to hear that kind of "ding-dongy mallrat" speech. I really wasn't the target audience, except that I loved that sort of Christian/Medieval mythology.
Kitsune are "reverse" werefoxes (to put it simply) from East Asia. The word is Japanese, and you'll usually come across that kind, but the Chinese have their own version, that isn't as fun as the Japanese one. Either way, it's basically how the Japanese defame foxes (I think the Japanese wolf has been extinct for a long time, and so has the Japanese population of white sea bears (which, as cold water bears rather than cold air bears, used to have a MUCH longer range around the Eurasian coastline, but their range was severely reduced even before Europeans and Redskins with their new guns started wiping them out along the northwest Atlantic coats (where they were once common as far south as Maine), as foxes are now the largest predator left on the islands (every culture has werebeasts, and they're always the local predator.)
And yeah, you weren't supposed to enjoy the ValleySpeak. Hollywood knew it was grating to everyone outside California.
I think both showed up as a monster of the week on Grimm.
Moi aussi j'ai beaucoup aimé la version francophone de Buffy Contre les Vampires.
Hey, I also loved the Buffy French dub.
The movie was more fun than I thought it would be. Not a vampire fan, but Buffy the movie was good fun, with good character development. She's not a badass from the get-go, and doesn't even want to be.
Didn't follow the show, but yeah, apparently it was deserving to be a followup to the movie.
There was a buffy reboot?
