More on Joss-less Buffy at io9. They make some good points - the Buffy comic isn't hitting the heights it was, currently Joss is hit or miss (Dollhouse, Serenity - yeah, I said it) and they try and make the case Buffy is bigger than Joss. Buffy is certainly strong enough to survive any medium - she has gone from movies, to TV, to comics - and the continunity may one day require a reboot, but Buffy isn't Star Trek or Batman with decades of dead weight. She's young and still vivid in the imaginations of her fans (would a Star Trek reboot with diferent actors have worked in 1979?).
I don't think this will get anywhere. The reaction seems fierce enough to rival Republican opposition to... well, everything. It seems crass, disrespectful, and short sighted. And it may be what it takes to get Joss on board with a Buffy movie.
