Buffy is coming back. Buffy is coming back black

Rather they bring back Firefly

They just need to make her an 8 year old transsexual muslim Mexican rape victim with breast cancer who's separated from her family too and they'll have all their bases covered.

Fixed it for you.

Space 1999 could floor both of them.
Just saying.

I demand they remake Dukes of Hazzard with illegal aliens, Roscoe can be a female Muslim in a hijab, Daisy can be a gender neutral zhem, Boss Hogg can be Rose Marcario, and Jesse can be Bernie Sanders.

There, fixed it for you too!

I like The Expanse.

I thought firefly was overrated.

I'd rather pick up defying gravity.


They can continue Buffy but not reboot.

Here's an honest question.

Where are all the brown hero's and heroines?

Or is all Hollylame is concerned with is black and white.

They exist. Maybe not necessarily in movies, but definitely in comics. Blue Beetle, Firebrand, a few Green Lanterns. Miles Morales, the latest Spider-man, is black and puerto rican. I think they're even working on a movie with him. So even though they don't hit mainstream all too often, they do exist.

As long as josh is the one doing the writing it will be cool.

They need to bring back dark matter and stargate universe.

Unless they recast the character of Buffy as a black girl. Don't do it. She's not.

well they want to
i said as much in the OP

Been there, done that, moved on.

Hey, I've got an idea!! (OH NOES!!)

Let's try to come up with the most absolutely perfect politically correct characters. I'll start:

Gay, transexual, identifies as a goat, Mongolian, irritable bowel syndrome, window-licker, one leg, 11 fingers, lisp, tatooed, green hair, pierced with more hardware than Ace, ...

ETA...oh, and serious halitosis with tourette's

That will be a big mistake.
Taking a beloved character with a cult following and changing her will not go over well.

yeah i think you will prove to be correct

Wow. We (me and the wife) we’re talking about how we watched Buffy when it was on tv last night. I had the hots for Charisma Carpenter and she liked David Boreanaz. It was a fun show to watch, and I prefer the movie (peewee herman as a bad vampire!).
As for a reboot, meh. Her being black, meh. If I remember right, a new Vampire slayer (Buffy), was always changing through time, they weren’t immortal like the vampires, so it could/should choose that storyline.
A straight up remake and making her black would be a dumb move. I read all of The Gunslinger series by Stephen King and was pretty disappointed when they magically changed Roland to a black guy. I think all fans of the series were put out by it.
It’s kinda like if they cast Brad Pitt as Black Panther. How would that go over with the fan base?

It's already proven. The Gunslinger tanked.

Afaik the original series had a black vampire slayer for a couple episodes. So why not?

White snowflakes will always find a reason to bitch about of course.

a reply to: TinySickTears

I did catch a few epeisodes back in the day but I wouldn't name the lead 'Buffy' as that name was taken by a white girl, so it seems a bit silly to bring the show back with a lead actress who's black but still named Buffy!
