So, ladies and gents... Today, the Universal fan site closed, with the website soon to follow.

So, here's the question: where do we go from here?

um... this site

"The people who made the show, and the people who saw the show, which is roughly the same number of people, fell in love with it, a little bit too much to let it go, too much to lay down arms when when the battle looked pretty much lost. In Hollywood, people like that are called unrealistic, quixotic, obsessive... In my world, they're called Browncoats."

Where else Gassi, you keep pressen the fight on. Either other boards already up ie FFF.net + others or you build your own and keep building up the fan base and promoting the series/movie. Either way, Capt hasn't ordered a stand down yet, besides I didn't a get dressed up for nuthen. Thus we hold, and send the message to fox, that its the audience, not the damn suits that decides what is on t.v. If there is no audinence, then no $$$ for Fox or anyone else. Already has a massive fan base and if you keep track on the board we get more in with each passing day. Well theres my 2 cents.
mata, Ookami yori

Suren time to give Fox and them Gorram Alliance boys something to think about.
I ain't disagreen, I only wanted a drink!!!

No, no - I don't mean in a literal 'What websites do we use?' sense.

I mean - what do we do now? Firefly has an incredible resource of people who are fans who could be pooled to do something constructive.

At the moment the 'verse has nothing commercially going on with it (other than the next batch of comics and the books for 2007). So, where do we go from here?

where do we go from here? we pimp out Firefly and Serenity like you would a whore, i'm sorry, companion, before the guilds came along. one thing i've noticed that i'm very happy about is all of the people visiting here lately talking about how they are new fans to the 'verse. there are still tons of people to recruit. the love for Firefly is infectious, it just hasn't been spread to people. you can't fall in love with something you've never seen. and i've never shown Firefly or Serenity to someone who didn't end up liking it or loving it. If we want more, we have to work for it. It sounds dumb to say, because fans of other things don't have to work for more like we do. But if Browncoats want more, we're going to have to do our best to give Firefly and Serenity the attention and appreciation they deserve.

Ohhhhhh, well I hear that there's a project to save the air ambulance from 'Ariel' that's in a junkyard in the desert, and rebuild it. Also the Mule from the movie seems to be tossed in the tall grass on the Universal lot and ignored. I think both of these should be saved, rebuilt and go on Sci-Fi tours to conventions. Of course, I don't have the funds for that.

We can collect funds for a sequel. I'm sure if we got all of us Browncoats together donate what we could then we could collect enough to at least gain Universal's attention.

Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.

I've heard of the books but the comic books? Do, please, tell, Gossi, what you've heard.
