I'm sorry, but I think the "evil twin" thing is soooo "jump the shark".

How devilishly clever of you. I like it. Instead of "Wash" we have "Hatch" Now you got me thinkin' about how to get Book back into the story line other than flashbacks etc.

# Inara, to Book knocking on shuttle door

I think that idea would BE PERFECT for an episode of the TV show or if we got another Dark Horse comic mini seris. But since that stroy would be immpossiable for people who didn't see firefly/Serenity to understand(give a %^& about). It would be wrong to do in a movie.

When you move a work from one medium to another you have to make sure people who are not familiar with it can appericiate it.

An since not a lot of nonbrowncoats saw Serenity a sequel is gonna have to have a story that can hook movie goers that are that versed in the 'verse.

I know excattly how that episode should end.

Prolouge- Its the day after the film (and Wash/Zoes aniversy for good messure). And with Wash and Book dead. Malcolm starts to consider hiring some more help. He wants Zoe to help him on his search but for some reason she's really sick. Mal thinks its because Wash died but Kaylee thinks its obviously "something else" and has Simon check her out.

So let's imagine that latter in the ep Niska hires Wash's brother to kill Zoe ( Revenge for War Stories) they fight until they both have eachother at gunpoint ,but Zoe cannot bare to shoot him cuz he looks so much like wash. And she's miserable/depressed/suicidal over Washes death anyway.

Zoe: No, I can't do it.

then right when Wash's twin is about to blow her away Malcolm shows up.

Mal: I will.

BANG! Then we see him fall into something really nasty.

Then theres an epilouge were Mal goes to check on Zoe and she explains that the stress form the last few days has caused her to loose Wash's child(remember they had a discussion about having a baby in 'heart of gold') and that she will be leaving serenity.

I like that idea, it's genius

"Oh no what could it be? We're all going to die. Who's flying this thing? Oh right, that would be me, back to work"

The twin idea is cool, but only if his nickname isn't "Dry".

I like a baby Wash, or "Rinse" idea, but I don't like the idea of several episodes involving Zoe sitting in the corner crying and eating funnel cake and Ben & Jerry's.

"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."

I must agree. It seems pretty cliched. It seems like too many shows have already "been there, done that".

However, I do love it when a show gets your creative juices flowing. Good story lines probably start out somewhat weak until they get fleshed out more.

The sequel to Serenity should include our BDHs running into Wash's twin brother named Marcus Washburn, who turns out to be a rough, badguy nicknamed "The Hatchet" because of some atrocity he commited in the Alliance/Independence war. He's now working as a bounty hunter for the Alliance.

There should be a scene near the end where Mal is down, River is lost somewhere, Kaylee and Inara are tied up, and Simon is nowhere to be found. Zoe and Marcus Washburn, both experienced fighters and tough to the core, have to fight it out. The problem for Zoe is that Marcus looks exactly like her dead husband...

BTW: Marcus Washburn fought on the side of the Alliance and he hates ex-independance soldiers with a passion to the point where he guts them whenever he can.

OMG! I LIKE it!!! Where is Jayne in all of this? Is he gonna save Zoe, or is he asleep in his bunk?
