It's like something out of the Onion: "Today around noon EST the Serenity/Firefly fan base reached a preponderance of nuttiness with the attempts to change the upcoming DVD cover art with an online petition."

Well, I seriously doubt that it's the actual cover. Remember the picture that stood in on Amazon.com for a while for the novelization? This is probably just a very good fan created cover.

well I really agree...who cares what the cover looks like?
I care about the extras!

(I'll admit that I was annoyed that Summers eyes are blue on the cover when we all know they are brown, but it isn't worth petitioning about)

I disagree. It has to be at least 62% or maybe 38%, but not 51%. I invite all those who feel the same to sign my petition.



Sorry, I couldn't resist. But really, what is with all of the petitions lately?

I think people should just be grateful of the date of the release. With it being released just before X-mas, there may be chance of a sequel. I'll sign the petition.

I disagree with the webpage layout of the Onion while they're criticizing our fandom. Everybody knows people read the Onion for the layout, not the content. Agree with me? Sign my petition!
