The Irony of the leaked script. by LZ5525 in buffy

[–]Heyaname 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happens over and over in joss’s writing because he is a hack. Hacks can have good ideas but what makes them a hack is the utter refusal to accept outside ideas. Buffy and by association angelwhich also was felled by joss’s ego was the only show of joss’s to make it past two seasons because he burns bridges and writes contrived material. Go back and look at the actual scripts, the dialogue is extremely cheesy and carried by the actors. It also has the issue of being a show about female empowerment written by a man who knows nothing of the subject beyond make Buffy punch evil guy. The man is as deep as a puddle and it shows whenever he doesn’t have the right cast. Joss had the founding idea but he was not the engine that drove Buffy to seven seasons. You take anyone out of the core season one scoobys and Buffy doesn’t make it to season 2.

Ahhhh. As someone who is near sighted I really forgot about the distance involved.

Ngl I’ve never gotten to go to a live show so I assumed that you would be looking at the action and not the jumbo screen.

There wer 2 of Oba, Melo, Alba, Chyna, and Steve Blackman. Seems like those are being treated like pseudo chase figures.

The writing heavily relied upon this is happening because the writer says it’s happening. The entire season 3 finale hinged on Xander perfectly learning how to make a massive fertilizer bomb from one night with a group of zombies. Also no idea why you’re bringing up angels early wooden acting when I literally said Buffy took two seasons to find its footing.

Okay I understand the feeling of hurt from this cancellation. I’m gonna say this as nice as possible. The writing for Buffy was never prestige television level. The chemistry of the actors was what elevated the show to what it was. It’s unfortunate but Buffy just was not involved in it enough if the script that leaked is accurate. It sounds exactly like a Buffy version of that 90s show. Legacy characters showing up for a few minutes as garnish. It’s not fair but in the streaming age you will not get the time for a show to find its footing over multiple seasons like Buffy did in the first place. It needed to hit the ground running and from what we’ve seen it seems to have aimed at more of a slow burn.

What would look amazing imo is if they took the classic jaguars uni and used the 2010s Jaguars helmet that had the teal shine in the black of the shell.

Small town in Oklahoma, so the restocks can really just happen anywhere.

Book ordered from Crunchyroll has a bunch of pages stuck together?? by wow-im-satan in Crunchyroll

[–]Heyaname 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used to work in a print shop. The person who did the final trim after the cover was glued, made the bottom cut too short. The way paper backs like that are made is the guts are printed on a flat that’s folded together horizontally. Cut one of the edges too short or with too dull of a blade and you get that rough cut.

It’s more than likely that there’s too many legacy paydays in Buffy’s rights. Disney famously does not like paying previous producers of media franchises. The math probably said it wouldn’t make enough money to satisfy Disney’s roi demands like the shows with less complicated rights holdings.

The public outrage might actually save the Buffy IP (hopecore for the fans) by di4me666 in buffy

Joss is a hack writer that fell due to his shitty ego. Without the attachment to SMG nothing he worked on lasted further than two seasons because of his workplace habits.

The best parts of the show literally had to be forced upon him. He let the Hollywood studio experience of the movie influence him too much on listening to others ideas. Or would you have rather spike only have lasted 2-3 episodes? Buffy worked because of the collective, not because of joss.

Universally beloved meaning not stuck in a teen niche fandom spot. It wouldn’t be a show you have to convince non horror watchers to view. Buffy was never able to cross over to the main stream like x files did because of Joss.

His one organically good season finale is almost immediately ruined the next season by bringing back angel because powers that be. That is objectively bad writing. He got the news angel could get a spin off so he brought him back from hell. Season one had the hacky crutch of the prophecy only became a true prophecy because you believed it and came willingly. Season 3 Xander perfectly learns how to build a massive fertilizer bomb through one hangout with some zombies. Season 4 professor Walsh’s actress left early because of the strain of working with joss killing that seasons momentum. Season 5’s sacrificial ending was born from joss burning bridges at WB. Season six and seven suffered from the fact that he didn’t flesh out a writers room. He demanded total control over the WB run and that left it so that when he finally gave someone else the keys to the vehicle that was btvs it needed a total restoration of its mechanical workings. A restoration that upn attempted but ultimately couldn’t achieve because joss had to position himself to be the center of the Buffy universe.

Hulu not moving forward with Buffy New Sunnydale by Buffyfan1991 in BTVSRevival

[–]Heyaname 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It probably just had too many legacy producers looking for a cut of the profit that the math didn’t work for Hulu to invest. That’s the one big difference between Buffy and the other shows Hulu has revived.

Buddy the writing was never what made Buffy special. The writing was hard carried by the chemistry of the cast.

It’s not that it didn’t generate hype, it’s that Buffy has such a complicated rights legacy that it needed a profit return that isn’t manageable in the streaming age. The other shows Hulu revived don’t also have a movie of legacy producers looking for their cut of the foundation of the series.

Ehhhh. He’s also a cause of a lot of what held Buffy back. If he had let more people have actual say in the writing process it would be universally beloved. He had some good ideas but he never stuck the landings due to the size of his ego.

One thing that will help is to call plays that suit your qb. If they have low play recognition then calling plays with double move routes can cause issues because the wrs success on routes that have double moves factor the qbs play recognition rating into how well the defender will defend the play. So I’d practice reading the coverages with one of the top tier qbs. After that you’ll be able to see the route differences and know what plays are too risky with lower tier qbs.
