I've seen a lot of talk recently about Buffy / Angel crossover movies featuring the entire cast of both shows. personally, I think this would be great fun, and would possibly be the best way to wrap up the Buffyverse, brining it full circle by reintegrating Buffy's and Angel's plot threads. It would also give closure to the Angel series. I've even thought of a plot: what if the activation of all the slayers was exactly what the First wanted? After all, it let Buffy take the scythe, allowed Spike to live, and practically gave Buffy the Idea to activate the slayers. And wasnt there some cryptic reason why Buffy's ressurection allowed the First to become more powerful? Maybe the source of the slayer's powers is linked to the First?
My ideal Buffy / Angel movie would see them teaming up to stop the First's master plan, and defeat the Senior Partners.
What does everyone else think?

Well,
I personally would love to see more from the cast of both shows. Though I heard that's it's unlikely that Sarah (Buffy) or David (Angel) would be interested in reprising their roles, I also heard that James (Spike) is interested and willing to do more. Now that Tru Calling seems to be gone, I say bring on the Spike and Faith Show. Resurrect Wesley, Gunn recovers from nearly fatal wounds with the help of Illyria, Xander the Pirate and Willow show up to help. Sounds like a team. Yeah I'm Dreaming.

Maybe The First is the CEO of Wolfram & Hart.

Speaking personally, I think a Buffy/Angel crossover movie (and yes, I mean MOVIE-movie, not TV-movie) is the only way to close out the franchise. Sadly, that doesn't look likely due to the (apparent) unwillingness of either Sarah Michelle Gellar or David Boreanaz to take part.

If TV movies are the way forward, then I think Joss should recombine the two casts, giving us a mizture of both shows in however many TVMs there end up being. Let's face it, Angel didn't have many characters left by the end - and two of them were originally Buffy characters!

I think some kind of Spike story is as close to certain as it's possible to be at this stage, but I also think a Faith story and a Giles story should be done, if only because a Faith spin-off and a Giles spin-off were the most talked about options post-Buffy. My guess is that there are already stories in Joss' head about those two characters. Unfortunately, though, Tru Calling ISN'T gone (which is a tragedy in more ways than one) so Eliza Dushku's time will be limited. Time to cross those fingers...

But much like the BDM, I refuse to get my hopes up until Joss himself sends out word that the project is moving forward.

My thoughts exactly. Who better to be the head of 'Evil Incorporated'?

Actually, I'm thinking of doing this story as a fanfic. Does anyone know a good website where I can post Buffy fanfic?
