I just checked the DragonCon site again and still no confirmations. Hopefully the proximity of the con to the release of the BDM doesn't prevent them them from attending. Seems to me it would encourage attendence, but who knows how many premires etc. they have planned. Hopefully we'll see them all there.

Remember Browncoats, the more we CONTACT DragonCon, not just check the website, the more DragonCon will KNOW we want our BDH's there. They may have already contacted them but it doesn't hurt to call and at least thank the DragonCon staff for inviting our BDHs.

That was my concern too Jadehand, that the proximity of the BDM premiere might interfere w/ the cast attending Dragon Con.
I do agree that attending a Con as huge as Dragon Con seems like an excellent venue in which to make that last minute push for the BDM.

Too true Fireflygal!
I encourage everyone to contact Dragon Con and ask if any of the cast has been approached about attending, and if so, who. The more we ask, the more interest there is and the harder DC will work to book the cast.

Thanks!

There are literally hundreds of us fans at the FIREFLYFANS.NET site who have been wondering and asking this question, yet we still don't see them on your guest list. Their movie premiers this

So, now I'm going to start planning on going to Dragoncon! Hope to see you there!

My wife and I go every year and have a great time. Last year was the best Con for me as Nathan, Adam and Jewel were there and I got to meet more than twenty Browncoats from the various boards I post on. The Firefly presence last year was unbelievable.
Look forward to meeting you this year.

Hiya
I would LOVE to go back to DragonCon. We had a total blast there. I've talked to my manager who says he's spoken to the DragonCon people, and they're just working out details (?) apparently. I don't think I'm a "for sure" yet, but you guys contacting the DC staff is probably the best way to get me, and some more of us, over there.
So glad those of you who attended last year had as much fun as I had. Hope to see you there.
Jewel
