Now There is Going to be a Buffy The Vampire Slayer Reboot without Whedon

Oh For Fuck's Sake.

Honestly, you are telling me that this is the best idea that producers can come up with.

They couldn't send a page out to USC or another institution of higher learning within 40 miles of the studio and pluck some film student at random from a class and give them a million dollars to make a movie? I mean, that would probably end up being as cost effective as the above idea, and knowing college kids, they'd end up with a horror comedy about some form of undead creature anyway, so it would work out anyway.

Note: I am neither a fan, nor detractor of the series in question (or Joss Whedon for that matter).

I have to stop being shocked by these stupid, lazy ideas, I really do. I should expect less. A lot less.
