Stop at Granville
Stop at Beatty (Stadium)
Cross the Viaduct to Quebec
Stop at Main on Terminal
Down Terminal on Clark
Stop at 7th
To Grandview/12th
Stop at Commercial
And so on...
Wouldn't be too difficult.
The trip wouild probably take 1:15 but especially on weekends, I'm sure it would be popular if it left every 30 minutes.

It reminds me of the whole "24/7 SkyTrain" debate we had a year or two ago when that Facebook group, which now has something like 30,000 people, made some noise.
I believe the consensus was it would be possible to extend SkyTrain hours slightly, but 24/7 would simply be too costly given the lack of late night demand and late night maintenance required. However, there certainly needs to be a 24/7 artery bus system that could parallel SkyTrain routes.
