I don't know how eager (or otherwise) he was to take the role (although I assume the delay was merely timing, and had nothing to do with anything else)....But I do know that he was Buddhist way before Firefly even started, so I hardly think that has any bearing on this particular subject.

Tell me you're not actually as prejudiced as your post made you appear?

whatever his feelings when he signed on to do the movie
(which obviously I don't know)
it would certainly seem that he has changed his opinion now.
He was in London for Starfury's Serenity Convention last weekend
AND he was in Austin for the advanced screening



Which has me a bit confused. From the extra interview stuff on the DVD, Ron seemed very moved to have been a part of this project. It almost seemed to me that he enjoyed it so much, that he didn't want to revive his role and some how tamper w/ the memory of it all. I could be way off on this, I'll admit.

Tell me you're not serious w/ that question.(I'm having trouble waking up this a.m.) There's not an ounce of prejudice anywhere near my question. It was just a quesiton.

Yeah, I didn't catch any sarcasm in there either. Just be yourself AURaptor!

Well, there was a smiley, which, when included, indicates a certain levity and good humour regarding the comment/question associated with same.

At least, it does when I do it. Your mileage may vary with others....

Normally I'm all for sarcasm. I use it on an almost constant basis. Just don't want anyone's feelings to be hurt. Some people can be pretty sensitive.

Just allow me to blame it on early morning foggy headedness.
