I think there's a big haves and have nots problem too.
A lot of browncoats have seen Serenity. Yet a lot haven't. So, there's sort of a class system going on. Also there's spoiler issues causing problems. I that's adding a lot to the issues.
Still I don't think it's as bad as some are saying.

Well I for one cannot wait for serentity, I am a huge fan of the series and have probably seen every episode 10 times at least, as to all the nay-sayers if you really want to talk smack about a movie most of us have not even seen yet at least have the courtesy to do it somewhere else...news flash folks this is a FAN site not a I am pissed off because Joss and Marti Noxin canceled Angel so I have to bad mouth what ever else they decide to do site. :hanged
Ok thats my rant on a unrelated topic has any one read the "Serenity" comics from dark horse yet? I think they are great.
In closing I think we as fans need to write Fox (the evil network) and demand for another season of our favorite space western, it worked for Trek back in the 60's and it can work for us also.

Yes, but what I'd like people to appreciate here is that it is not we who have done the impossible, but me. I singlehandedly defeated the FOX dragon (barehanded, no less), I lugged back the treasure from the garden of the Sun to fund the movie, and it was me that gave birth to all the browncoats running about these forums.
I expect some thanks for my heroic efforts, ladies and gents. (If you need any more reason to thank me, just remember who planted the concept of the show into Joss's dreams that night.
"Is that visitingmyintentions? Oh pinch me Wash,I must be dreaming." So YOU slayed the evil FOX dragon? Well,kind sir/mam...sirmam? may I say to ye a harty HERE! HERE! to you Thank YOU for everything else you mentioned as well......

Also, our numbers everywhere have taken a big leap. We are now getting ppl who weren't our immediate core group, it's opening up to alot more. More ppl, more "diversity".

while i appreciate the enthusiasim, as one who has been here from nearly the beginning, just thought i'd let ya know this was tried back when we were just on "hiatus" and not officially cancelled. and the evil fox just turned a deaf ear... ( well maybe not EVIL, but not very nice at all!
... bunch of big meanie heads!)

There's a huge difference between a letter-writing campaign to keep a show from being cancelled in the first place (as was done with Trek, albiet only temporarily) and one to get a network to start a show up again from scratch. Fans did try to prevent Firefly's cancellation, but were unsuccessful.
Your enthusiasm is commendable, in any case.

I can see you.

and 10-15 years later a relatively successful film brought Trek BACK to TV reincarnated to The Next Generation...
a successful reception of 'Serenity' will mean sequels...every two years at best (longer if Wonder Woman slows things down)
BUT it could also make Fox rethink their property,
they might find a way to work w/Universal to bring 'Firefly' back or create a spin-off or sell the rights....
money can change contractural limitations.
Worse comes to worse we'll still have these cool comics!
