Any Xena:WP fans on the boards?

The only thing I can think of is that the old lady is dressed as one of the Fates (the Crone).
 
Lucy goes to drag show in Louisiana, among other things in this next article. :rommie:

This is what happens when Lucy goes to NYC to promote "Salem".

A Fangasm over a "GREEK" meeting a "true" AMAZON! :bolian:

Here's a tidbit about Ash vs Evil Dead.

I'm hoping AvED (on my, pun Unintended! :alienblush: ) will bring another resurgence of Lucy interviews secretly beating the Xena reboot drum. :bolian:

Here a cute "Xena turns 20" article on X&G.

As mentioned in a video posted earlier, Lucy is now a columnist for her New Zealand newspaper, and here's an interesting column of her attending the death of a hard core Xena fan.

Rob Tapert speaks of many things in this recently released interview, including (naturally) Xena.

Lets beat the drum a little more for a Xena reboot.

I loved the comment in one article suggesting the 1.2 BILLION dollar world wide box office for FROZEN should encourage the bean counters that an audience exists for female centered movies. :vulcan:

She's been drumming quietly for a couple of years now. :bolian:

Here's a fan teaser from 2010.

I love the disclaimer... "this is not a real movie!"

Here's another 2010.

I think they're serious about wanting a movie. :rommie:

Here's the 2011 campaign.

It lacks something, but they synched the music well. :confused:

This 2011 offering is better... :)

... but you could be forgiven if after watching it, you thought Gabrielle and Eve were mere backup singers for the Warrior Princess. :rolleyes:

Here's a 2012 trailer predicting a 2013 opening.

At least Gabrielle shines in this one. :bolian:

2013 is looking brighter.

Typos not withstanding. ;)

Here is the same vidder's 2014 offering.

More credits than movie. :p

[yt]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdQqmDmYY6U[/yt]

Here's a 2014 with something besides credits.

I wonder who'd they cast for a new Ares? :vulcan:

What I like is that Lucy isn't the one who keeps bringing the topic of Xena up in these interviews, but she is NOT shy about discussing her when the interviewers asks about the character/show.

She is, however, humble about her contributionwhich makes me respect the actress all the more. :bolian:

I was just about to make a topic about this.

A reboot is an absolutely brilliant idea. I just hope it's a soft reboot and not a hard reboot.
 
Eh, I don't know. Xena is one of those characters where I think the actor helped make the character. I remember hearing about a Buffy reboot that never seemed to get off the ground, and I kind of hope this goes in that direction. I don't really feel the need to see Xena without Lucy Lawless playing the part

This. Although if Lucy, Renee, and all the others aren't playing their respective roles then I have little interest. Normally I'm okay with reboots but not when it comes to Xena (and Buffy).

See, THIS is what happens when I stop googling Xena everyday and don't check in with the board. :rolleyes:

NEWS! Actual... freaking... NEWS! :bolian:

HUZZAH!!! :rommie:

Lets just hope they find the "right" writer to do justice to the characters.

I wonder if TPTB would try to turn Lucy and Renee into supernatural type mentors of the reincarnated Xena / Gabrielle, to interact with the new dynamic duo through the series. Replacing, in a sense, the pantheon of Greek Gods. :vulcan:

Here I am... doing my Xena Happy Dance! :beer:
 
Okay, take a deep breath and lets look on the positive side of this fake out. :vulcan:

Just the RUMOR of a reboot set fans aflame and the internet abuzz.

https://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=lucy lawless&date=1/2015 12m&cmpt=q&tz=Etc/GMT+4

https://www.google.com/search?q=xen...ChMIk87VpNTuxgIVhDg-Ch20CwUY&biw=1103&bih=520

Surely THAT should open some corporate bean counters eyes to the possibility $$ of a reboot / relaunch.


http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment...ld-make-you-go-ayayayaya-20150721-giguc4.html

I laughed at this ^ guy's comment that he and his friend were tasked with protecting Lucy and Renee from a sea of lesbians at Sidney's gay pride parade one year.


Getting back to Lucy, here's another SDCC interview where she's "pitching" (NOT promising) a Xena reboot.

http://media.smh.com.au/featured/lucy-lawless-i-think-it-would-be-bloody-cool-6701908.html

"A land in turmoil, cried out for a HERO!"

And so must we, if Xena is ever to return. :bolian:

This writer is looking at the recent Xena reboot rumor like the veritable glass half full rather than half empty.

http://www.cheatsheet.com/entertain...s-the-right-time-for-a-reboot.html/?a=viewall

I like his way of thinking and hope he's ^^ right... about everything except the timing. ;)


Speaking of bad timing, this next link bemoans the fact that Lucy squashed the rumor before they had a chance to report on it. :rolleyes:

http://www.chipchick.com/2015/07/xena-reboot.html

I laughed at their last paragraph, "daring" to spoil the series end for newbies without an ounce of remorse. :p

Even more than the spoiling, though, I loved the end of the "article".

It makes me think of the Cowardly Lion in the Wicked Witch's forest, "I do believe in spooks, I DO believe in spooks, I do I Do I DO"... WANT TO BELIEVE that a Xena reboot is still possible! :bolian:

I just want to say one thing...

These guys are NOT regular people.

Regular people do the war cry MUCH better! ;)

And we all know that Lucy IS "regular people".

Well, "regular people" when she's not dressed to kill on CELEBRITY DEATH MATCH! :klingon:

(Truth to tell, I only watched the first 2 minutes and the last 2 1/2 minutes, so if anything "untoward" occurred in the middle, I disavow all knowledge of same. :) )
