Here's something interesting from Heidi over at The Alligator Point Bar & Grill website.

During filming of Alligator Point, a fan named Bob asked Nathan Fillion about the chances of him returning to Firefly. This is what happened:

Quote:


Bob: So here I am leaning over the rail, basically everybody seated except Nathan and I, so I went in for what I really wanted to know. I leaned over and this is what happened.

Bob: "So do we have a chance in hell to have this show back?"
Nathan: "What they're really concentrating on now is a movie."
Bob: "Would this be a made-for-tv movie?"
Nathan: "Nope, a big budget silver screen production!!"
Bob: "That would so cool, I would be the first in line."
Nathan: "Thanks for supporting Firefly."



A big screen Firefly would definately be cool.

I hope it's rated R. My guess is that it will be PG-13. Any thoughts?

Crossing my fingers,
Buffy started with a film...
Firefly ends with one?


(An admittedly mangled haiku -- you have to take some liberties with 'Firefly' as two syllables. But, hey, I'm in the South.)

I've gotta say, a rumor like this? It's a long shot. If the word came from Nathan himself, I'd believe it. But it came from Nathan from a source from a source. I hope.... But I'll believe it when I hear it from a more confirmed source.

Of course, I'd be content with a made-for-TV movie, so long as it tied up a few loose endings...

I'd be satisfied with Firefly sock puppet theater. It's a nice thought though, seeing Firefly on the big screen, but I won't get my hopes up til I read it directly from Joss or Nathan.

Mal: Well, we're still flying

Simon: That's not much

Mal: It's enough

If it's true; shiny, if it's not, someone's gonna get shot.

DOBSON: Okay. I can see you're not an idiot.

DOBSON: I'm supposed to be meeting my wife's sister. I've only got a few days to see her...

ZOE: I wish there was another way...

DOBSON: Oh, no, no. That woman is like a dragon. I mean, I believe she has a tail. If there's any other moons we need to visit, or if we could just
fly very slowly...

Hello Everybody,
This is Bob here, and I swear this is what Nathan said to me. I would hate to think he just said this to me to pacify me with I wanted to hear. I know he is a great actor, but he looked me straight in the eye's when he said it. If anybody has any questions for me..please just ask.

I can say this, if there's gonna be a movie, there's gonna be a shindig somewhere, and we're gonna sell out the whole gorram theatre for it.

Lost Angel has spoken!

WASH: So?

I would so be there if the put Firefly on the big screen. Honestly, I would go several times and get as many of my friends and family as I could to go see it too. If asking didn't work, I am not above begging or blackmail.

"May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one."
