Weekly feature: Excerpt from original script


From Judgement, this scene to be specific.

"When Angel breaks one of Cordelia's glass animals, she complain about the agency using her place for headquarters. Her line changed between original script and final airing.
The original version was:

'My landlady keeps saying, 'you better not be running a business up there, I hear a lot of noise' and I keep telling her, 'no businss, just wild orgies'.'

But the line was changed too:
'Why can't we work out of Wes's?'"

Saving Angel: After the fall



This is a premium format custom made by willowswarlok. The word you're looking for is Wow!


It's not scene specific, he made it from the buyers specifications, but I really don't care. It's 20-ish inches of awesomeness (I assume it's about 20" since it's made from this or this statue).


Look here for more info and photos.

Can you name all the episodes?

I did the Buffy one, and it was very hard for me. Episodes I've seen the day before was gone from my memory. I was stuck at 106 and trying to spell Doppelgangland when the time was out.

Buffy test

Angel test

There other Whedon tests on that site as well.

A comic adaptation we'll probably never see.

Ryan has colored a previously uncolored "cover" for a adapted comic of the Ats season 4 episode Orpheus that might never be realized, due to the Angel license returning to Darkhorse.

Look at the uncolored version on Elena Casagrande's(the penciler's) blog, and at the colored version.

Ryan has also done some (fan)coloring of the interior work for the Illyria mini-series Haunted, issue 1, page 2.

-EDIT

Ryan re-did the Orpheus art. Lookie

Weekly feature: What to buy?

Comics Alliance has posted a list of pop culture vampire merchandise that sucks, among them a stake prop replica from Buffy.

The article

It is weird that I want so many things on that list? I will one day have the courage to display that sparkly dildo on a shelf (so not for using, because displaying used dildos=yuuuuuuuck).

Weekly feature: Excerpt from original script

From Triangle (BtVS, S5).

"'Um ... Giles? Could you maybe make an angry face? 'Cause the smile is kind of scaring me.'
In an early draft of the script, Willow cowers as Giles returns from England early and surveys the damage to The Magix Box.

Funny catch.

I found this a bit funny when watching Witch (BtVS, S1).

"WILLOW: You're not invisible to Buffy.

XANDER: It's worse! I'm just like a part of the scenery, like an old shoe. Or a rug that you walk on every day but don't even really see it.

WILLOW: Like a pen that's all chewed up, and you know you should throw it away, but you don't, not 'cause you like it so much, more 'cause you're just used to...

XANDER: Will, yeah, that is the point, you don't have to drive it through my head like a railroad spike. I'm gonna take your advice and not beat around the bush."

Remind you of Spike got his name according to Giles' book in School Hard (BtVS, S2)?

"GILES: Our new friend Spike. He's known as 'William the Bloody'. Earned his nickname by torturing his victims with railroad spikes. Very pleasant."

Probably means nothing, no foreshadowing or anything, but it made me giggle.
