Buffy Reboot

Buffy was a very popular movie and T.V. series in the 90's. It was able to make vampires funny and scary at the same time. The W.B. wants to bring the popular show back. The producer is Charles Roven who says that it will not be set in high school. However, there are many fans that are not happy about the reboot. The creator Joss Whedon is one of them.
"Obviously I have strong, mixed emotions about something like this. My first reaction upon hearing who was writing it was, 'Whit Stillman AND Wes Anderson? This is gonna be the most sardonically adorable movie EVER.' Apparently I was misinformed," he said, adding, "But seriously, are vampires even popular any more?"
Even though the reboot might sound like a good idea. After paying attention to past experience and see that reboots are very tricky to accomplish. There has been plenty of people trying to redo popular T.V. shows. It really has not been successful. People need to come up with more original ideas. If the creator thinks that the idea is bad, then the people who are creating the reboot should see it is not a good idea. Buffy was a very popular show if there is going to be a reboot the people from the original show should be involved.
