I said bye..twice, yet here I am. lol
I've just got to say this. I have been recruiting fans for the FF series thru the dvds and have been fairly successful. Oh, they enjoyed the series very much, but none as fanatically as I have. Interest seemed to be waning somewhat and I have been feeding tidbits about the movie as much as I can, and Meltingman answering questions here have helped much. I do let them know that there seem to be slightly different versions and the actual movie itself may turn out differently...or not. Interest has picked up again. I am even trying to get my friends and family to think about going to Australia with me to see the movie. Granted, just us alone isn't going to make a big difference. It's going to be a very expensive movie ticket for each of us.
I feel so bad that Meltingman (clearly having no ill intent)has been 'attacked' for his part here. :(

I think you`ve got it wrong! It`s not about reading spoilers but getting the right information if that`s what you want - what`s been said here is that some things said here are not what was seen (in the UK). What has been said is not to believe everything you hear here, the thing with spoilers is to get the facts straight - If I said "Reavers look like people in big teddy bear outfits on screen" how would you know (apart from it being far fetched) that it isn`t so?
So again I say to take everything you read here with a pinch of salt until things can be confirmed by other sources.

Man how i'm excited about the possibility they have made changes. Regarding the information i have shared, this is what I have seen during my viewing. I did'nt add anything or stretch what i saw.
The different movie you saw I hope includes Wash not dying, and Mal not having a three foot sword shoved through his stomach and fighting for another 10 minutes!!!!
This is encouraging.

Here's my tidbits of independent confirmation:
1) We know there's a hovercraft chase scene - in the Comic Con trailer, there was one shown briefly.
2) The behind-the-scenes photos I released(which ended up in SFX Magazine, by the way) included university-campus-looking place where there were decomposed bodies just LYING ON THE GROUND like they'd...hmmm...lost the will to live and just lay down to die. Not reaverized, just collapsed. Sounds like the Reaver homeworld Meltingman described.
3) I've gotten a private email response with a person highly involved in the film who indicated that FTL/not-FTL indeed is left nebulous, likely on purpose.
That's it for me. I hope Wash and Book don't die!

I'm lost. FTL?

FTL = Faster Than Light(speed of Light)
In theory to make it practical to travel to he stars space craft must travel FTL as the distances are so large.
There is still the open question on how the people in the Firefly Universe actually got to where they are today with speculation on FTL travel or some other means (wormhole/stargate/portal etc.)- but nothing has been mentioed or seen for certain
