i was extremely disappointed. extremely.

one saving...and yet very short...grace...was the scooby *gretch starts crying* scene in the hallway...*that* is what i'm gonna miss...

joss did try to throw us some bones...anya's bunnies...party in xander's eye socket..."eat m..." buffy line...andrew's swimmer's ear...dawn's tongue ring epiphany...dungeons and dragons...

joss did let me down in the plot department...and the time department...i think if it were two hours...at least anya could have gotten a proper death some dangling stuff could have been covered...some proper relatioship (not romantic) could have been rounded out...

i'm gonna miss these characters immensely...i wish joss would have given them their due...regardless, they'll always be with me in a way...

The spoiled ol' me got what I wanted. To be over the bad parts and enjoy how it was played.

Unexpectedly good parts:
SMG's reading of 'splainy'. She pulled that off despite the script.

All the action was great. From treating Caleb with the respect he deserved to the final battle, it all went well. The scoobies did their part, too, but it was all too brief. I could have used about 5 times the Dawn screentime. She had a great move letting in the light and ended swinging a sword to save Xander.

Cookie dough was OK, also because of SMG's acting. Angel didn't quite work, but that is what spoilage is good for. I was not disappointed.

They used the final scene to set up spinoffs as expected. It can go several ways equally well.

Spike's death looked really final - burning up and all. That's going to take real creativity to get him on AtS.

Anya's death was valiant too. Sad enough, but then spoilers to the rescue. I will have to get all new ships for the DSN, though.
