Hehe, yeah, kinda makes me wish they could have done a movie about Los Hermanos Numeros, though by now it would be accused as a ripoff of Nacho Libre.
Hmm… you think anyone would watch a movie about Jack Black fighting mobsters and vampires in LA?
Cause I would.

I would totally watch that movie, although I had no interest in Nacho Libre\*.
\*I like crazy Jack Black, not toned-down, family-friendly Jack Black. And since I didn’t care for School of Rock and hated Napoleon Dynamite, I gave Nacho Libre a big skip.

You know the best part would be Tenacious D singing the Angel theme song, complete with Jack Black’s acapella bits.

I’ve got a series of movies under development with pretty much exactly this theme. Not Wheldonverse, but… well, the same general flavor.

IIRC, we also see some government-backed anti-demon organizations starting around Season 4. In Season 2, we also find out that at least the local government is entirely aware of what’s going on, and takes it’s own measures to promote its best interests, whatever they may be.

And did you catch the reference to the Initiative in an Angel ep with Nazi submarines? The dudes that sent Angel down said they were part of it. Nice tie in with Riley the thread that I hadn’t caught until just the other day.
