OK ive finally stopped laughing at being called a little kid.

Here am I, 29 years old, with 2 children, own house, car and life. Able to differentiate between a movie and real life, Able to accept that sometime people die in films, even my favorite characters (and yes mr you are all wash haters) Wash IS my favorite) who i cried for and mourned for. Then I got a hug, I dried my tears, I had a vodka, and I went back to real life, thats the thing most of us live in.

And yet im a kid. That seem right to you

Absolutely have an opinion and a theory of your own and share it, but please be mature enough to accept that not everone will agree, accept it with grace and dignity, not stamp your feet and hurl insults because you didn't get the response you wanted.

That something my 8 year old son would do, because he dosnt understand the reasoning of opinion just yet.

Your theory although fantastically fanciful, is full of holes. it would make a great fic.

Ok, here I go, throwing my hat into this one:

I personally don't think Wash WILL come back.

But I think it's neat that Joss has left himself some wiggle room. If he feels like the story absotively posolutely cannot be told without Wash...he's got a fallback plan. I kind of agree that the extent of the injury may have been underestimated by the original poster, but there's still that possibility. He's not saying it's probable, just that it's possible. Which I could agree with.

I would be a little disappointed if Wash DID come back. (cause, cheesy) But I wouldn't argue that there's NO possible way he ever could.

Personally, I think we could still get plenty of Wash in sequels without his actual resurrection.

Consider: we've never seen anything of the romance/courtship between Wash and Zoe, from the "he bothers me" stage until they're already married.

Now, Zoe has to come to grips with this terrible loss. If he chooses to, Joss could spend some time in any followups showing us Zoe's grieving process, including scenes from their relationship between the "Out of Gas" introduction and their eventual marriage. This could be done with flashbacks, dream sequences, even visions -- Zoe could be 'haunted' by Wash's memory.

This would allow for a lot of new Washian moments, without resorting to a resurrection (which I agree would be pretty cheesy).

I really don't see the need for a lot of sniping among us Browncoats. Nor do I think that Firefly/Serenity is necessarily "over", or that it does anybody any good to make statements to that effect. Hmmm, didn't I hear something about Firefly being "over" in 2002?

Okay, fair play. I apologise for my sarcastic and somewhat snarky reply. Twasn't really fair.

You've been posting here longer, also true. But I admit I fail to see how thats relevant. I should be giving all posters equal respect...no matter how long thet have been a flan, or an FF resident. As I have alrwady admitted, I wasn't being respectful...and I've apologised. But it wasn't a personal attack on you. You could have been anyone. I didn't know you from Adam.

I'd like to once again say that I am sorry, and didn't mean to offend you.

I think Joss was trying to make it pretty obvious - in the way that the death was carried out - that it was both certain and sudden.

From the script;

Quote:
A massive harpoon CRASHES through the windshield and impales him [Wash] to his chair. It's as thick around as a telephone pole.

Wash has time to open his mouth in surprise before he is dead.

Joss' words.

Seems to be a few closet "Wash haters" on this site, or do these new punk kids think they know how Joss thinks better that the rest of us old timers. Dream on kiddies.

I don't hate Wash. I love Wash. His death hurt like hell...but I grieved for the death of a much-loved character and moved on. Such is life.

Secondly, since when am I a... "new punk kid"?

I am not a punk. I'm hardly a kid either. New to the Jossverse? Heck no. I've been a fan for 8 years. Became a Joss fan back when Buffy season One started airing on British terrestial tv.

Now, of all the people posting in this thread, you are the one making personal attacks. Thats the second time you have made a reference to my age. What does my age have to do with the death of Wash?

If Wash is bought back to life, it would completely cheapen, for me, not only his death scene, but every single thing that followed it in the BDM. It would suck the emotion out of it.

SerenityPunk made a, I believe, fitting reference to Dynasty. Oh, it was all a dream...

Never in my life thought I'd have ocassion to say this, but here goes:

Oh no you didn't! I can't believe that you've lowered the level of discourse to that. Un. Believable.

My $.02: if Wash comes back to life (through any means but flashback) I will lose much respect for Joss.

I was just confused, because in the third line of your original post, you said;
