My interpretation:
"If you think the EW interview means Firefly is over, you're as crazy as a turnip."

Ain't about you, Jayne. It's about what they need.

Ah yes. Joss.
Funny guy! I'm glad that he didn't agree with the EW article!

I don't think so. No one here believed it blindly (just the few people I had silly arguments with lately).
("it" = the EW article)

Bah.
You think one stupid EW article full of misquotes is going to back off Browncoats?
I say it won't happen.
We won't let Firefly die. It's just too darn pretty.

I was thinking more of the potential fanbase. We know the Firefly DVDs are still selling like hotcakes, how many people might be put off if they think the franchise is dead? Every fan counts.

Well, they're dummies.
Seriously, we just have to keep getting the word out that Firefly still has a beating heart. Joss has obviously not given up, and it's up to us to make sure that everyone hears that.
Browncoats were determined and faithful, and not giving up LONG before I even learned of Firefly. (For which I am eternally grateful!)
New fans won't be turned off by one dissy article, and the ones who won't even give it a chance just because it's been cancelled, well, it's really their loss, isn't it?

LOL FIRST it was all the Petitions.. petitions here, petitions there.. now it's EW and Joss' snappy reply... this 'vers is anything but dull!
And I LURVE that Joss has to reply at his site... cus he Does give a good gorram about what we think.. hell, he is the ultimate Browncoat, after all... (well maybe after Mal.. well maybe not since he thought Mal up in the first place..)
Oh- I am beginning to damage my OWN calm...
MERRY CHRISTMAS, HOLIDAYS, FESTIVUS whatever to all you fellow travelers!

Suppose for a moment that this is all true. Sort of. In a Mal kind of way.
I would love if this was all a ruse to buy back the rights from Fox. A few well placed comments in major publications about Joss not wanting to revive the show or the movie, and Fox realizes that they have a property on their hands worth nothing now. Someone comes by and says, "Let me take that off your hands, that now worthless property of yours.", and Fox sells it. Then, the mask comes off, and it's Joss!! Fox executives, in a stinging bit of irony cry, "Curse your sudden, but inevitable betrayal!", and we get our show back!
OK, I'm reaching a bit.
I'm not letting go, regardless if it's true or not (which I don't think it is). Flan For Life baby!
"The last thing I want is that any of our descendents should look back in some years and despise us for not daring to act when we had so much capacity to act. We must dare to seek how, why and on what we agree. We shall thus be able to join together to look for alternative solutions and new ways of managing the world's challenges. Being diverse is our richness, acting together will be our strength". (Federico Mayor; 02-04-01;
