When Buffy Met Edward

Hey ladies—are you weirded out by the strange sexual power dynamics in Twilight [1]? So is Buffy the vampire slayer, and she's got something to say about it. Like to hear it? Here it goes.

Jezebel linked [2] to this amazing remix video by Jonathan McIntosh [3], who edited together scenes from Buffy and Twilight to make it seem like waxy, broody Edward Cullen is trying to put the moves on our favorite demon killer—and she. Is. Not. Amused.

Now, our girl knows from ridiculously good-looking, brooding vampire honeys [4]. So when she tells you that stalking maketh not a courtship, you should listen to her. The awesomeness of this vid helps alleviate some of the sadness I feel about the upcoming Buffy reboot movie [5], which will feature neither Buffy, nor the Scoobies [6], nor, it seems, Joss Whedon [7]. At least there's the upcoming animated series [8] to look forward to.
