This is sad. However, at least there are comics.

I had not heard any definitive "no". Where did that come from?

Not that I ever really expected it to happen, but it was nice to hope....

Maybe they thought it would be too much like Angel so they tossed the idea of a movie out.

Entirely pointy.


I've also heard the Spike thing was a wash-out; however, there is still hope for a Giles spin-off called "Ripper".

There were a lot of wishy-washy execs not being able to make a decision with the financing or the format (tv movie, direct to DVD miniseries, etc). Also, James Marsters says that he would never go back to Spike once he hits 45 and he's 44 now...so the deadline is pretty much over.

I had assumed him to be much, much younger than that.

Not so old after all Chrisisall

I read in the latest issue of the Buffy magazine that Joss has pretty much said there won't be any further tv or movie incarnations of the Buffyverse. There are still the Buffy season 8 comics though, so that's a plus.

"Haha, mine is an evil laugh."

It sort of makes you wonder what if The Spike Movie had happened, what would the story be like? Also, Spike died in seasons 7 of BtVS, so the movie\'s story would have had to be before season 7. I suspect that it would have been a big challenge for writers to come up with a good story for this.

Spike was ressurected in season 5 of Angel. He spent the first half of the season as a ghost and then they found a way to make him coporial again cause he was starting to fade away.

Oh my!
I only watched season one and two of Angel, and after watching all of BtVS I decided that there was no point of continuing to watch Angel. I had no idea Spike made a come back. Well, I shall certainly make it my business to continue watching the remainder of the Angel seasons.

Thank you for this bit of information!

River, there is a great ep in season 4, #6 Spin The Bottle. It reminds me of Tabula Rasa, where a spell goes wrong, everyone returns to their teenage persona. It's a hoot! Plus Gina Torres is in later eps, those were great, too.

The Spin the Bottle episode was in conjunction with Tabula Rasa, I do believe. Hi-larious, that. My fav Angle one would have to be Smile Time though, Spike absolutely got beat by a puppet Angel. None other, none other.

On the topic... I am not hopeful of a Spike movie, though I have heard it discussed or whatnot. I would love to see Ripper, but not to hopeful of that, either. It's true that Joss is basically done with the Buffyverse. Hopefully he will continue with the Firefly 'verse.

Unfortunately not, Joss explained what happened back in June.

BENDIS: [Laughs] Oh, speaking of, I saw on the board tonight they announced the new Buffy comic. You’re gonna write a new Buffy comic?

WHEDON: I am, in fact. This was originally a concept that was designed to tie in to some Buffy movies that are probably not going to happen. So now the comic is out there twisting in the wind by itself. But I have this arc; this concept of what I refer to as “Season 8” of “Buffy,” which is the “What happens next?” Although it’s very much more comic book in scale and style and time frame. Everyone’s like, “What week will it pick up during?” And I’m like, “It’s not quite like that.”

What I’m doing is working with Georges Jeanty. He’s gonna be drawing the first four, which I’m writing. And Jo Chen’s gonna do the covers. I’m a huge fan of hers. I have this arc laid out which I’m sort of writing up as where I want the series to go and then I’m gonna be bringing in anybody from the camp or any of our friends who have the time to do arcs within that. Just sort of servicing certain beats and then going off on their own. Because at this point, it’s sort of fair game. There are certain characters I’ve been saving because I thought I might make movies about them, but that doesn’t look like it’s going to happen.

BENDIS: Why isn’t that going to happen?

WHEDON: I think money is standing in the way. What is ever in the way? What ever makes anything happen or not happen?
