I see, Doncoat. Thanks for the reassurance. Yes, after that first reply I was a little down.

The thing that is so great about the reassurance is that it isn't just hopeful fan talk. When Firefly ended three years ago there were abundant numbers of folk who were glad to tell us that the show was dead, over, that was that.

Three years, and a wildly successful DVD, books, comics and a MOVIE, later... looks like maybe Firefly wasn't so dead after all.

You realize that asking this question is essentially the same as poking a bunch of independents with a stick? It's like asking them, "Why did you lose the war?"

What's the answer? "We didn't!"

I don't think firefly "flans" are going anywhere for awhile. Hopefully they'll keep us happy.

How unfortunate, Ican, that your question was first answered by one of the most pessimistic posters I've seen on this board.

You're damn right I'm pessimistic. You all need to get a life. I'm done here. I'm not coming back. This board is made up of the saddest group of people I've ever seen.

Does this mean I hate Firefly? No, I enjoy the show, but that's all it is. It's a show. Instead of begging for more you should be thankful for all that you've gotten.

Do I hope one day that it will come back. I do, but I'm not going to hold my breath any more and I'm not going to keep coming back to this community. I'll buy the new comics. I'll buy the books. I've bought the DVD's.

But I'm done with this group of people.

Goodbye.

*hands browncoat back*

Keep it. I don't need it.

Do you know what your sin... I don't care any more.

That is the funniest thing I have heard in awhile!

Thanks for the laughs kid!

We will hold...we hold till Mal gets back.

Boy, Operative seems embittered.

No need to lash out at people who enjoy our simple pleasures. The community is remarkable, not destestable.

I mean there was a movie made in the last 6 mos. about this story.

If you're going to leave... maybe do so with some grace?

I don't know. Maybe i'm just being an ass myself.

We really do need to accept people's differing opinions. Though Operative is a pessimist, and granted he probably should not have been so raw with the new recruit, he should be able to hold his opinion and not be ostracised or ridiculed for it. I have seen far worse pessimists on the Battlestar Galactica board. yowsa.

But Operative also needs to take the punches as he doles them out.

Anyhew, like Chindi and a previous poster had said, "go in peace". Hope to see ya back reel soon.

I don't think Operative isn't pessimistic, he's just taken to anti-optimism

Anyway, I think the DVD sales remain pretty strong, I've watched both Firefly and Serenity get pushed down the list, only to wave as the former #1 movie goes plummeting past. Both have stayed in the top 20 since sometime last year (dates may vary as I measure time using the metric system). and other regions are still being released. Besides, shouldn't there be an extended collector's edition with the collector ovenmitts released sometime in the future. Those are always good money makers.

Yeah!

A Serenity director's cut (with an additional hour of footage), and offical ship oven mits with Chinese characters on them...

I'd buy that!

There ya go, now you're all set. You'll find this a shiny place... well, from your post I think you know that. Welcome home.
