I'm no "Twilight" fan, but I'm glad to see Joss not jumping on the "bash somebody else's fandom" bandwagon like certain other "professionals" I could name.
I've been on the receiving end of fandom contempt enough times to know it's no fun.
(Still, it had to be said that Angel would kick Edward Cullen's ass. I mean, there's graciousness, but then there's just plain fact. ;D )

i personally hate twilight, i think it was just way to popular to get into. Do you know what i mean? (and the whole 'shining in the sunlight' put me off) anyways, glad to see that Joss has taken notice of it. but he's right Angel or Spike could beat the sh*t out of him. ;D

Personally I enjoyed the books but felt the movie fell flat. I agree with AC though, I like how Joss was classy about it and recognized its significance. Its a phenomenon right now and there's no denying it, love it or hate it.

I agree with Joss 100%. Angel would kick Edward's butt. Personally I'd rather see Angel fight James. LOL
I'm a huge fan of the Twilight series books, but I think the casting in the movies totally sucked. Of course that's just my imagination of who the characters would be/should look like, etc coloring my thoughts.

Go Joss It's funny reading those comments and seeing people say that Edward would win simply cuz he's pretty. Or that he can read minds. What has that got to do with it? Angel's mind is unreadable unless you're Betta George and I don't think Edward's mind reading powers are that great like George's

Angel would win, no doubt, but I'd take Edward home and address his wounds

Edward is superman-fast, probably superman-strong and have you know... superman-granite-skin.
I'm not saying that Edward could take Superman... Huh... That's a thought...
Back on topic. I would bet on Edward in a Angel vs Edward fight. But it could go either way, depends on the situation. What is the environment? Do they underestimate each other?
And most importantly of all; Why are they fighting each other?
If Edward thought Angel would attack his family, bye bye Angel. The other way around might end up with Edward dead.
From what I've read in the Twilight books, the Twilight vampires are way stronger than vampires. Plus the speed and hard bodies and all that, but hey, Angel knows more about magic. Maybe they end up in a voodoo shop and he gets time to make a voodoo doll or something.
But lock them into a room without weapons, do a spell so they get angry and out of control, and I think I'll win that bet.

If we were to take them solely from their in-universe form, Edward win for the sole sake that vampires are pretty much invincible in the series (I only read the first book, so unless it retcons it later that's the impression I get). If we were to put them in a place where the same 'vampire rules' apply to them, Angel would win, no contest. For the sole sake that Angel has tons of fighting experience... and that I hate Edward and all things Twilight.

Angel killed an Immortal (Hamilton), the sparkly one has no chance

The real question is who would win if Bill (from True Blood) were to fight Edward?

As much as i hate the Twlightverse, Angel would get destroyed by Edward. Vampires are on a whole other level there. The vampires of the Buffyverse are a lot more weaker, hell even humans can take out vamps easily. Which isn't that bad, Joss just never really focused on that part, he opted for storytelling/drama and depth. Be it Angel or Angelus(changing your name back and forth doesn't make you cool), both are not even the best fighters of the buffyverse. If there was one vampire i would think had an honest chance it would be Spike, if he's serious about it.

Spike loves fighting. It's his passion. It's what makes him Spike. So yeah, I agree that Spike would have a chance against Edward

That's amazing and thank you Joss! I enjoyed reading that, plus there's always the comments at the bottom "Edward would win he's just soooo hot OMG" that tend to make me chuckle.

Haha, so funny that Joss said Edward/Robert Pattinson is hot. I am a fan of the Twilight book series (not so much with the first movie), but there's no denying that Angel is the better vamp here and would totally wipe the floor with Edward. Angel = Vampire, Edward = Whimpire
