Audio problem: When Buffy is using the flag as a weapon to fight Lothos, you can hear the metal clang of the sword, but the flag pole is made from wood.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1992)
1 audio problem - chronological order
Directed by: Fran Rubel Kuzui
Starring: Donald Sutherland, Hilary Swank, Rutger Hauer, Kristy Swanson, Paul Reubens, Luke Perry
Continuity mistake: When the vampire is on the hood of Pike's car, his head is just barely on the windshield. However, in the next shot from Pike's view, the vamp's head is covering the entire windshield. This happens several times. (00:39:35)
Nicole: Buff, I don't see why we have to invite every single senior.
Buffy: Because it's the senior dance. It's just a shot in the dark.
Trivia: Seth Green is one of only two people to appear in both the "Buffy" movie and the TV series. Although his big scene ended up on the cutting room floor, you can see him in vamp-face on the back of the movie box.
Question: I've been wanting to finally watch the TV series, but I've never understood one thing... I know the movie is technically not 100% canonical with the series, but I've heard they later tried to connect it with the series with a comic-book adaptation. So should I watch the movie before the series? Or should I just go ahead and watch the series on its own, and treat the movie as an entirely separate "thing"? Or can it be done either way?

Answer: I'd say you treat them as 2 separate things. My personal opinion is that you should just watch the series and forget about the movie.
