IGN TV: What was the Buffy reunion like for you?
Joss Whedon: Very surreal. Some of those people I see, some of them I haven't seen at all. And you know, it was just a weird evening. It was nice to see Sarah and the questions got so strange that Sarah and I just sort of chatted onstage for awhile, which was nice; to catch up.
IGN: Yeah, the iPod question was pretty out there. [Editor's Note: One fan asked the entire panel the time-consuming question of what their favorite movie was and what they were listening to on their iPod]
Whedon: [Laughs] That took like an hour and a half! We thought we were supposed to be talking about Buffy!
IGN: I think I'm legally obligated to ask - Did that reunion inspire you to think, "Maybe one day we could do something again with Buffy in live-action"?
Dun, dun, dun...............................
Whedon: I never don't think that, but I also [think about] the legal reality of the thing and the busyness of all our schedules – I'm happy to say they're all working and so am I. It didn't make me think about it more, because it's always part of me. I'll never let go of the story. I'm still working on the damn comic! But the reality of the thing is so complicated that I'm like, if somebody comes to me and says, "Everybody's signed on and it's all good…" Otherwise, it would just be like I'd start to obsess about it. I shut it down, because I will break that story, and I've got to stop myself.

I occasionally read the comments, but haven't seen anything "scary"
