I do agree with your assessment about the setting between the show and movie being a bad idea.

However I see far more unfulfilled promise in Firefly than Buffy, if only that the latter had far more time to flesh it's world out. Like the mostly positive but still somewhat misunderstood by some recontextualization of sex work by Inara's character that came up the other day with someone in parallels to their own work.

More people would probably connect with a Buffy reboot though.
