If the apocalypse comes, beep me - the Buffy thread!

A spin-off from the Torchwood thread where there seem to be lots of people reminiscing about the good ole days of Buffy and Angel and the genius that is Joss Whedon.

I sometimes feel strange confessing to being a Buffy fan in RL at the age of 36 but I love both it and Angel. So if you need somewhere to swap favourite moments, this is the thread!

Ah - You'll be in love till it kills you both. You'll fight and you'll shag and you'll hate each other till it makes you quake but you'll never be friends. Love isn't brains, children, it's blood. Blood screaming inside you to work its will.

I agree that Joss Whedon does romance and passion incredibly well.
has anyone mentioned Firefly??

slayerette · 20/01/2008 21:45

I love Beauty and the Beasts when Buffy is rading Call of the Wild to Angel at the end. That's just gorgeously done by SMG.

That spike quote is from Lovers Walk isn't it?

slayerette · 20/01/2008 21:47

Buffy: 'Night came on, and a full moon rose high over the trees...'

Cut to the mansion. Buffy watches as Angel lies asleep on the floor.

Buffy: '...lighting the land till it lay bathed in ghostly day. And the
strain of the primitive remained alive and active.'

Cut to her. The camera closes in on her.

Buffy: 'Faithfulness and devotion, things born of fire and roof were
his...'

Cut to Angel. He moves slightly, and his face contorts in anguish and
pain as he dreams.

Buffy: '...yet he retained his wildness and wiliness.'

Cut to Buffy. She is sitting on the floor leaning against the wall,
watching him sleep and contemplating her life.

Buffy: 'And from the depths of the forest, a call still sounded.'

Yes - Lover's Walk, a great episode! Who can forget Spike at the end, driving off, growling out My Way!

Ilove that season (3) and season 2. My favorites.

slayerette · 20/01/2008 21:56

Season 2 is one of my favourites - I love Becoming. The Srah McLachlan song at the end makes me cry!

ok now don't tell anyone I told you this, but I am waiting to watch Buffy all the way through again, but I need to wait until I have forgotten it enough to make it fresh again then Angel then Firefly again
do I sound at all werid

sfxmum · 20/01/2008 22:03

I always complain about season 4 but looking back there are a few true gems

'something blue' (v.funny silly)

'hush' (scary genius)

'harsh light of day' "I like you, you are funy and you are nicely shaped, and frankly it's ludicrous to have these interlocking bodies and not...interlock. please remove your clothing now" funnier than her wedding vows

'restless' it is just great crazy season finale

but of course it had the bloody Initiative in it and annoying Riley

slayerette · 20/01/2008 22:05

and just for Cappuccino

harpsichordcarrier · 20/01/2008 22:06

slayerette · 20/01/2008 22:06

hapsichord, dh and I have watched them through more times than we would care to count...

and someone stop me browsing Youtube for Buffy songs because I'm on a roll now!

there is no flicker of spike having sex with buffy in a falling down building in that clip

Cappuccino · 20/01/2008 22:08

you could really tell in those later series at what point James Marsters really started going to the gym

slayerette · 20/01/2008 22:08

Now The Wish was one of my favourite episodes - loved Vamp Willow!

Bored now!

seriously, I could do this all night!

OP posts:
sfxmum · 20/01/2008 22:09

about the sex in falling down building I seem to remember the scene was cut

slayerette · 20/01/2008 22:10

Cappuccino, were you checking out his torso in that clip from Storyteller??? I am

It made me happy!

rantinghousewife · 20/01/2008 22:10

The Wish was brilliant.
Vamp Willow licking face.

harpsichordcarrier · 20/01/2008 22:10
