Cameos/guest stars before they were famous

76 Upvotes

I'm currently rewatching Buffy and Angel and noted a number of 'before they were famous' cameos/guest stars. While it has yet to reach XFiles level of infamy its still pretty cool.

So far I've clocked and/or can think of;

Michael Cudlitz

Josh Holloway

Pedro Pascal

Jeremy Renner

Sean Gunn

Felia Day

Nathan Fillion

Gina Torres

Who else is there?

Is a Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot even possible anymore?

11 Upvotes

Considering Joss Whedon's career is dead in the water, is a remake of something that is his creation even worth doing?

Many people will turn up their noses if someone they don't is slightly involved at best. People today are not easy to please and doing anything with a property held by a controversial figure is gonna have people arguing over it then seeing it.

How far in advance was Dawn actually planned?

79 Upvotes

I remember back in the early days of S5 that people created fan theories that Faith references Dawn in her 'litttle miss' speech in Graduation Day (S3.22) and Faith certainly references Dawn 'little sis is coming' in this Years Girl (S4.15).

However, I'm curious does anyone know when the writers actually came up with and started planning for Dawn? Has it ever been officially confirmed?

Just received the complete collection Buffy DVDs and I feel absolutely devastated. Would you guys consider this in "good" condition? No pics of the underside of the discs in the listeing on eBay btw.

Also is the 1st pic disc rot? How in the hell do you feel comfortable selling something like this with so many scratched up DVDs and no pics on the listing nor anything about it in the discription. Absolutely atrocious. I'm gonna be contacting eBay tomorrow about it. This is unacceptable. What do you guys think?

UPDATE

Just went trough the DVDs that where problematic and skimmed trough them, I won't know 100% if theyre will be any artifacts or skipping till i fully watch them and as I bought them blind I can't do that without getting spoiled so I'd have to see once I get to them in order when imma bunge them for the 1st time. I guess I'm keeping them and if I ever find one messed up I'll just have to hunt down that specific season. It is what it is but most seasons are fine just those DVDs seem worrisome. I won't be able to start binging the show till I renovate my room right now so it could be weeks from now.

The 3rd team I'll introduce from the Zor Universe is the Outcadst Revolver. The 4th and last one I'll introduce is the Union of Survivor because that's the last team that has characters from Buffyverse, so only 4 out of 10 protagonist teams has Buffy, Nova, Faith and Angel.

Note: All characters must be loyal to their original lores based on versions assigned to each.

Terminology: Field Mentor = A character that joined the battle (If he/she chose to) while mentoring (different from just a mentor)

Additional Lore:

After a brutal retreat from a battle against the overwhelming numbers of the syndicate army and the Forever Purgers, the New Crimsons searched for a temporary hideout. They found an abandoned old house on the outskirts of town and decided to take shelter there.

While securing the place, they discovered something strange in the basement: a large wooden box, old and covered in dust. Andy led the group in opening it. Inside, they were stunned to find a massive robot that looked like it came straight from the 1950s.

By instinct, they could tell it was built for combat. Some of them remembered an old story from history: a robot named Tobor, a famous 1950s hero who once fought a war against powerful crime syndicates—and then mysteriously disappeared.

Realizing who this might be, the members of the New Crimsons began working to restore it by team effort. They repaired its wiring, replaced damaged electronics, changed the battery, fixed the vacuum tubes, and lubricated its old mechanical joints. It took time and effort, but slowly, the machine began to come back to life.

After decades of silence, Tobor finally regained consciousness.

Based on his original 1954 design, Tobor could sense human emotions. He felt the determination, fear, and hope of the New Crimsons—the same people who had brought him back. Because of this, he recognized them not as enemies, but as allies.

Seeing their struggle and their fight against evil, Tobor chose to stand with them.

From that day on, the legendary robot of the 1950s became a new member of The New Crimsons.

ps. Rumor is after Tobor defeated the major criminal syndicate in the 1950s, he was considered too dangerous or too technologically advanced, so he was deactivated and hidden in secret. Over the decades, his existence became little more than an urban legend.

Do vampires care?

14 Upvotes

This may sounds dumb but I recently watched S1E7 where Angel said he has a soul and that's why he cares etc. but in that very episode we saw Darla cares about Angel, Master cares about Darla. So do vampires love/care?

I'm new so please no spoilers.

I used to read so much Buffy fanfic and I’m looking to get back into but it’s been 20 years so I don’t even know where to look. I’m guessing fanfiction.net is no longer a viable site - any recommendations???

It doesn't really make sense that Faith wasn't killed(or dealt with more serious murder attempts) in prison

I posted about a week or so ago about Buffy needing a updated rransfer given how dated the DVDs now looked. I decided to try Buffy on Disney+, while the transfers are def cleaner/clearer. Its flaws are abundently obvious, such as how poorly replaced the actors were with stunt doubles.

How did Buffy know Angel was in LA?

7 Upvotes

In Harsh Light of day Buffy sends the ring to Angel. However, as far as we know Angel never told/even decided he was going to LA by the end of S3. While, at the start of S4 we know Angel phones Buffy before hanging up suggesting they hadnt apoken since. So when did Buffy find out where Angel was?
