A new Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie

Check out the wiki entry on "Executive Producer", which is the title the Kuzuis had for Buffy. Specifically, check out this quote:
--- Quote ---In the production of a television show there may be many executive producers listed. Sometimes it may be a situation not unlike to the one described above for motion pictures: someone with previous involvement with a particular work, a project's financier, or someone in control of the business aspect of production. Sometimes, this title is conferred upon a celebrity or notable creator who has lent their name to a project to boost its prestige or credibility, as a recognition of newly-acquired industry status, or as a perk to the show's main star or creative force.

Bolding mine. Because the Kuzuis made the movie, they held rights to the Buffy character, and leveraged that to get their executive producer credit. They've virtually no directing or production or writing credits. They were script doctors for a time and now they distribute US films in Japan and Japanese films in the US.
This movie will suck. I doubt I'll ever pay to see it.
RobbieOC:
Yeah, I was aware they weren't the creative forces behind it or anything, but it's kind of hard to argue that they haven't done good for the show over the years.
That doesn't mean they'll make a good movie. I'm just saying, it's not completely unconnected with the show. Just mostly.

I'll only watch it if Luke Perry is in it again.
And old man Sutherland.
Surgoshan:
Perhaps a time-traveling vampire will come back and try to kill the slayer, and Xander will be caught up in the same event and reboot the Buffyverse, allowing the slayer to become Captain of the Enterprise even though she doesn't really deserve it.

What we need is Buffy vs. the Lost Boys. Sutherland vs. Sutherland!
