A "Ripper" movie? Really??

[fenchurch]

You've probably all seen this already, but reports are coming in from Comic-Con that Joss Whedon said the "Ripper" movie (aka Giles on his home turf) is still in the works!

Weirdly, I was just discussing this with taradaktyl a few weeks ago -- she was wondering if I'd heard anything recently, which I hadn't. My opinion at the time was that it was never going to happen... based largely on the fact that the occasional rumors we'd been getting had seriously dried up over the last year.

I still think it might simply be the shiny object JW dangles in front of the fans to keep them hooked... but the fact that he was actually talking about it in a very large venue gives me at least a little bit of hope!

I think it has more chance than the Spike movie ever did, which, granted, is not saying much. But at least Joss seems to have some degree of genuine interest in a Ripper story, and I don't think he's ever been really interested in a Spike story.
