If this movie was done well (sorry, but it's the truth: even Twilight is better!), had the same success of Harry Potter and they made from it a whole franchise, introducing the characters that we saw on tv... here's my fancast: Robin Williams as Giles; Tom Cruise as Angel; Johnny Depp (he's the one that was abused!) as Spike; Nicole Kidman and Angelina Jolie as Darla and Drusilla; Gary Oldman as the Master; Penelope Cruz as Cordelia; Jennifer Connelly as Willow; Christian Slater as Xander; Michael J. Fox as Oz; Alicia Silverstone as Faith; Brad Pitt as Riley; Michelle Pfeiffer and Kim Basinger as Anya and Tara; Kirsten Dunst as Dawn. And if Charmed was made as a 90s-2000s movie franchise too: Sandra Bullock as Piper; Julianne Moore as Prue; Jennifer Lopez as Phoebe; Neve Campbell as Paige; Chris O'Donnel as Leo; Will Smith as Morris; Jeff Goldblum as Andy; Kevin Bacon as Cole; Anthony Hopkins as the Source (he would've been far better than the 3 actors who played him! Especially of the third!); Matt Damon and Ben Affleck as adult Wyatt and Chris; Angela Lansbury as grandma Halliwell; Laura Dern, Richard Gere and Pierce Brosnan as the Halliwells parents (Pierce is Paige's dad); Leelee Sobieski and Drew Barrymore as Billie and Christy Jenkins.
Honestly this trailer caught me, I know the show's a hit and I agree, but watching this trailer gave me a feeling that the movie is gonna be the mix of teen, comedy, and action, and it's from the 90's, a time where movies like this were the bombs
Am I the only person that loved this version of Buffy. When the series came out I had to warm up to Sarah playing the role. Both ladies did a good job. I kinda want a new Buffy movie or series.
There is a rumor there going to reboot it as a tv series again with a black Buffy. I am all for having more black women on TV but I don't think they should change her race. Just like Human Torch in that God Awful Fantastic Four movie. Give black people new creative rules not changing a character to be black. That's like changing Batman to a black man.
RIP to the actors in this classic Alexis Arquette, Luke Perry, Rutger Hauer, Paul Ruebens and now Donald Sutherland. The latter wasn’t a vampire slayer/expert, he was the king. 😭😭😢😢😔😔😞😞
Did I just see Giles as a vampire? Wow! I grew up on the series never realizing there was a movie first. I confess of all the possibilities I didn't expect to see vampire Giles!
Niki L this came waaaay before the series and was actually the inspiration for Whedon's Buffy. They allude to it all the time in the first season when Buffy talks about burning down her old school's gym and getting expelled.
I was surprised that Buffy The Vampire Slayer was actually a movie right before this title became a TV Show that targeted both teenagers and adults! : )
@@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624 You missed out on how awesome the 80's were. Especially when Super Mario Bros took the world by storm. And you had G1 Transformers and He-Man, etc. I hated the 90's, especially the music, and would dream of going back to the 80's.
This movie would have been 10 times better if it had been directed by Joss Whedon. But it's still a lot of fun, it's a comedy, and a lot of it still works. You should just avoid comparing it to the tv show. And I love Pike.
Possible, but I guess most improvements came from fan reactions to the movie itself. The producers and the team had taken those serious, at least at the start of the series. So choosing the Side Cick of Buffy; Alyson Hannigan was great in her role as Buffies friend. She had brought in her own kind of witty humor. Regrettably I can´´t find the test filming on RU-vid with another candidate for the Willow role. Was quite interesting because that young woman had been totaly intimidated by ther task other than Alxson Hannigan.
@@mariahetszaz8567 Thanks a lot have found it. THE real Pilot of Buffy is a lucky charme to me. On the day when I had studied in California the pilot of Buffy and the Fall of the Wall were broadcasted on the same day on the station I hadwatched back then. Therefore thanks to you I am happy just now ::::)
Despite claiming he was cut from the movie, Seth Green does appear in it, although it is just for three seconds, and for two of them he is seen from behind. He is the short red-haired vampire that gets kicked by Buffy outside the gym when a group of vampires, including him, are taunting her. You can recognize him by his haircut alone. Buffy's last name is never mentioned in the movie. Not until the release of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997) was she referred to as Buffy Summers. On March 4, 2019, the day that Luke Perry died, Joss Whedon tweeted, "The first time I met Luke Perry we talked about what kind of movie we wanted 'Buffy' to be. I asked if he'd ever seen 'Near Dark' and he gave me a look of HOW DARE YOU SIR and I knew we'd get along. Funny, committed, and always gracious. He shouldn't be gone." Kristy Swanson's father plays the referee of the basketball game. Most of the film's characters (heroes, villains, and supporting cast) never received a last name. Nearly everyone is mentioned only by first name throughout the film. Two of the film's main stars, Luke Perry and Rutger Hauer both died, roughly four months apart, in 2019. The Lost Boys (1987) and Night of the Comet (1984) were some of Joss Whedon's influences on the concept of that was ultimately turned into this film, and later Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997). Donald Sutherland, who played Merrick, Buffy's mentor, is the father of Kiefer Sutherland, who played David, the leader of the vampire gang in The Lost Boys (1987). Buffy (Kristy Swanson) says one of her life's goals is to marry Christian Slater. In Joss Whedon's original script, the celebrity she wanted to marry was Charlie Sheen. Swanson and Sheen starred in The Chase (1994). Alyssa Milano was originally set to play Buffy Buffy is a senior at Hemery High School in this movie, two years older than the Buffy of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997), who starts at Sunnydale High School as a sophomore. Buffy's "dress" boots for the dance are white hi top boxing boots with strips of white muslin for laces. The original script by Joss Whedon was heavily re-written to make this movie "lighter". In the original script, Buffy burns down the school gym in which the dance is being held, in an effort to destroy the vampires. In Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997), this fact is referred to several times, as the series is seen as a spin-off of the original, unproduced screenplay, rather than this movie. On the back of the DVD cover is a picture of Grueller (Sasha Jenson) screaming as he is about to be bitten by a vampire. This scene does not appear anywhere in the movie. When Grueller is later seen to be a vampire at the basketball game, it is implied that Amilyn (Paul Reubens) is the one that changed him Ricki Lake: A waitress in the scene where Buffy (Kristy Swanson) and Pike (Luke Perry) officially meet for the first time.
My sister let me see this movie as a kid and I legit had nightmares. I cant wait to rewatch and get over my childhood fear. The bad vamps were so creepy
I'm going to watch this movie, but I'm always going to see Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy and Kristy Swanson as Marlowe (I'm 14, so I didn't see 90's movies regularly)
The version of the script that Joss Whedon sold to the studio was written much more straight horror/action. The one liners were there, but in minute doses. Whedon had intended to direct the picture himself but stepped away from the project over conflicts with the studio when they made the decision to lose the straight horror aspects and play the film as a comedy.
Joss Whedon said the TV series is a soft reboot and he was originally aiming for. They allude in the first episodes that the events of the movie did happen.
Actually no. He says the movie is a standalone production due to the fact the producers changed his script to be less like what he wanted to do. The closest the movie can get of being canonical is through the comic "The Origin", though it still uses certain elements from the TV show
What's funny is the tv series has a much bigger following and is more popular, but anytime I make a video featuring the movie, Fox deletes it for copyright material. But I can make as many videos I want featuring the tv series.
I love the tv series, but after i saw the movie, i think kristy swanson is the most suitable artist plays buffy, she has a strong character. I really like the way she plays the character of buffy..
+WOng JV I love both :) in very different ways. I couldn't imagine Kristy Swanson not play Buffy in the movie and i couldn't imagine Sarah Michelle Gellar not playing Buffy in the TV show. I hope that makes senser
You're obviously not a big Buffy fan. SMG didn't just play that character, she MADE it. You don't realize that a lot of the changes and certain Buffy qualities were made based upon Sarah's contribution and suggestions. When she felt Buffy wouldn't act or say something written in the script she would have it known. Every actor has to be good to play a role (that's their job!) but not every character is made for the actor no matter how good their acting is. It's easy to pick up a scene, get the sassy attitude and read your lines with a bunch of people behind you telling you how and what to say. Sarah did a lot of her own stunts and has a black belt, she was so into her character she even cried on Angel episode I'll remember you and David (Angel) accidently says "It's okay, don't cry Sarah" instead of Buffy, because Sarah realized those characters would never be together. A true actor feels the emotions of their character, they don't just play it. And claiming she had a few years to adjust to it is a bullshit excuse, considering so many actors get emotional and crazy over their movie roles. Kristy just wasn't made for Buffy and she knew that herself
I liked the show, but it took me some time to adjust to the darker tone that it took. This feels more in line with what one imagines when reading the title "Buffy the Vampire Slayer".
maan I always do this . after watching a movie or a show series , I always vote for the couple that no one would expect & that's cute to me & in the end , the people I chose always become a couple but then I always wish that the couple would date/married in real life . but then I'm like they don't act like that in real life
Yeah, he did a disservice to this movie and "phoned in" most of his performance. He was embarrassed to be in a movie titled "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." So unprofessional.
Another Bottle Blonde Hollywood has been. She never got any other roles only commercial for Pizza Hut. Mannequin 2/ 13 Rotten Tomatoes......Deadly Friend 20 Rotten Tomatoes.
Ok. So I had never watched the trailer , and I don’t like the trailer itself . Makes the movie look way too playful . This movie legit has some scary parts. They make it look too “fun”.
