BUFFY movie not happening, Whedon says

Well, poop. In disappointing if unsurprising news, Joss Whedon tells SCI FI Wire that the rumored Buffy movie isn't in the works after all.

"Not gonna happen," Whedon told the site, repeating the sentence for emphasis: "Not gonna happen. Until I gather the press and make a public announcement myself that it's going to happen, never believe anything."

We'll console ourselves with the fact that he said until he gathers the press and makes a public announcement, which almost makes it sound like he's planning something. As we said in a previous post, we're not enthused about a potential Dr. Horrible sequel because it feels like Doc's story is finished. But Buffy? We'll happily follow her and the Scooby gang all the way to the rest home. ("These vampires never get any older... But I sure do.")
