This is probably nothing, but a random search turned up this recent information....


"Universal seems to already be talking about a hoped-for Serenity sequel, based in info from an interview by Jeremy Neish of FireflyMovie.com"

*In the hopes that this is indeed true*

(cue high-pitched voice-ness)YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That being said, I'll save The Happy Dance until it's officially announced.

But here's hoping! *crosses fingers, toes, eyes, legs, and various nose hairs*

I'm babbling like a moonbrain.

It's funny, because I had heard the same rumor from a friend of mine, but I'm not sure where he got the information. I didn't want to post it because I can't find anything to corroborate this on the internet. Anyone have info?

The podcast is delivering a very hopeful message! Now, none of this is official (it came from an apparent conversation between Jeremy Niesh of Fireflymovie.com and a producer at Universal), but what they're saying is that Universal may have been eyeing a Serenity sequel from the very beginning, and that there was no REAL monetary goal for the first movie that would make or break the possibility of a second one. I don't know if this is true. Even the hosts emphasize that it is still extremely important to go out and buy the DVD's and support the show and the movie, JUST IN CASE it turns out to be nothing more than a rumor. I just hope that this news is legitimate, and serious talk of a sequel is in the works. Though, wouldn't Joss have mentioned something by now? I'm too excited about the possibilities!

...off to watch the marathon on Sci-Fi Channel...

No matter what, Universal has to concern itself with distribution and marketing. They're going to want to see just how much this movie is grossing in the long run. That means we may have a long wait ahead of us. Sometimes, movies have to come to video to finally gain its full audience. Then sequels start becoming more appealing to studios.

They must have a scene where Mal negotiates a salary with River in the sequel. That scene has to be in the sequel. Mal's a good negotiator and he has experience but River's a super genius and she's psychic. That scene would just be freaking hilarious. My money is on River.
