Does anyone know if Alan Tudyk just wasnt keen to signing on for a sequel, or if Joss just killed him off for the shock of it.
And it was shocking. I cried like an idiot.
I was just wondering if anyone had heard anything on this...

lastunicorn,
I have no idea where to get them! I just see people driving around with "In loving memory of...." decals on their rear windshields. They have the birth and death dates on there, too, like a mobile headstone. I always thought it was kind of creepy, but I'd get one for Hoban Washburn in a heartbeat.
Mal-licious
I'm going to add cursing and the hurling about of things to my repertoire.

Yeah that is way creepy. But, i need to memorialize him on my car. I wonder if you can make your own...
Do you know if he just didnt want to sign on for a sequel? I feel I need an answer so I can mourn properly.
(wow. this much over a fictional character. possible that i need couch time.)

I loved the post-lovemaking scene in OIS. "Here lies Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now that she's all corpsified and gross..."
Pssst! That scene was from Shindig...
OK, so last year we were at one of those stores where you can custom-design stuffed animals, and my daughter made a cat dressed up like a doctor (she was about to into the hospital for a kidney procedure) and I made a WashBear! He has tousled reddish-blonde fur, and I got him some little khaki pants and a Hawaiian shirt.
This year...I've planned since before the movie got moved from April to bring him along to my first viewing, just as a fun fan thing (and me, over 50...that's really geeky!). Then I went ahead and read the spoilers...but I still took WashBear along, as a tribute. *sniff* Poor thing got hugged very hard.

My understanding is that all principal actors, including Alan Tudyk, are signed for three films if there are three films.
I have also heard that Wash's death was Alan's idea. He does have more work than most of the rest of the cast so that is certainly a consideration. His availability may be limited.

Firstly, I can't look at my car again. I had named him Wash when I first got him (late April 05). Now as I say, "Sorry Wash dear" if I turn his wheel too sharply, I must say damn it b/c the only other character who can make me laugh besides Jayne is gone.
I do need a decal. Like 'I'm a Leaf on the wind' or 'Forever Wash' or hell Serenity herself.
Also, I think my brain kind of hinted of how Wash would go. In my dream the day before the 30th the firefly gang landed safely to a nesrby planet with everybody ok. Mal was flying though. This was about the end of the movie
Looking back, my I think my mind knew the end of the movie before I did.
I'm amazed that I'm more upset over Wash's demise than Book's. :/

Well, while Wash was undoubtedly a great character, I was just as sorry to see Book go. I had counted on the mysteries of his life to be the focus of "Serenity II: In Search of Book's Past."

You can get the decals over at cafepress.com
Just type in serenity (or firefly) for lots of merchandise.
I have ordered a tote bag with which has "curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal" on it with added dinosaurs of course.
