Honestly if a Buffy movie means that the comic are out of continuity, I would RATHER have a Giles movie.

First and foremost I want a Buffy movie SO badly. And also I think the idea of Ripper would be to air it on TV rather than in the theaters. I'd like a Ripper movie, but want a Buffy movie more. And I wouldn't mind if the season 8 comics are thrown out of the canon window because even though I'm enjoying them, I would take a live-action Buffy continuation over any Buffy comic.

Yes to a Ripper movie. One of my favorite characters of the entire Buffyverse, of which there are many. There is still a lot of story to tell about Giles, especially in regards to his past. I could see a few Buffy characters from the past being involved mainly Ethan Rayne, Quentin Travers and the rest of the Watcher's Council (Wes and Gwedolyn Post), Olivia, and a few others that have slipped my mind at this time. Also some characters from the present can be used, he could met up with Oz (I think they have always had an unspoken bond between them - you only see a few glimpses of it on the show) and, of course, Faith. I would definitely look forward to a movie.

Yes. I think there is more to Giles that could be explained - such as what things he did as Ripper and how he came to be a watcher.

I'd watch it even if it didn't have any of the scoobies in it. It would expand on the Buffyverse and add new mythos and hopefully new interesting characters. We would probably also gets some wink wink and nods in form of inside jokes.

I also think that Giles has a lot of back story that could be told.

There is a TON of stuff that they could do with Giles, since he was woefully underused in the series. Let me just say that I have two thumbs WAY up for the idea of a Ripper movie.
