I'm sure this has been brought up...anyone have ideas or point to a thread that already discusses it?

thanks



Ummm... FLASHBACKS!

Joss loves them. We haven't seen the last of Alan and Ron in the 'Verse.

If I'm not mistaken, they are both contracted for three films total (assuming the last two are greenlit by Universal)

Also... River has read Wash's and Book's minds. They could speak to her ala Obi Wan kenobi. There are directions Whedon can go with his original cast involved.

again, this is probably beating a dead horse...to the fans of the show that had so much invested in the characters...it makes no sense...I can't pick an "expendable" character...I, like others, had grown attached-

Erm, that's kinda the point. Death hurts.

Wrong? Doomed?

I like Kaylee and Simon together at least for now. Opposites attract and all that.

Yeah, that's totally just my perspectives coming out. Assuming the story continues to be told, I see rocky roads ahead for our oh-so-pretty couple. Just sayin'!

The world would keep on going.

Although in adding to the denial; they could, like many other franchises, say that the movie was an alternate reality, and the show would go off in a different direction. A lot of franchises before did the same, and Joss seems like the type to do that type of thing.

Oddly enough, the song in question (Strength of the World) has a violin at the beginning which gives me Serenity vibes.

are you insane!!!! this is not a good title for a thread everyone is going to see. you need to put a spoiler warning on there and put something more ambiguous or something. many browncoats have not seen the movie yet, because of where they live or whatever and they don't even have to click on this thread to see the spoilers! they are right out in the title! what the hell!!! sorry about this J6ngo 1977. i wouldn't have wanted to be spoiled either

im sorry about the rant but please be more careful next time! if you want to know different people's emotions about this subject, ideas on whether or not to wash back, and how to bring wash back, you might want to go to this thread as well: http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=13372 it is chalk full of the stuff.

again sorry about ranting at you but really!

keep flyin'
