Yes this is very good news. Now some of their math is maybe a bit dodgy but it still leaves wiggle room in the profit department. So here is a bit more hope for Serenity 2: When Mal met Inara.

gone, i say and walk from church,
refusing the stiff procession to the grave,
letting the dead ride alone in the hearse.
it is june. i am tired of being brave.

Now, I'm a pessimist about all things involving estimation, but: the reasoning looks about right, (finding the amount by looking at what other movies above and below were) and they clearly over and under estimated where aplicable, so unless the advertising budget was stupendously huge (which i think we all doubt :-\ ) then, well.. they are right, we arent in the red, and the firefly fan base has grown like crazy on a profit-making venture!

If i'm smart enough to realize that Serenity II could only be more successful thanks to the vast boost in the fanbase (which was probably slacking slightly after 3 years, in theory) surely the good folk at 'versal know it too. 'sides, profit is profit, and with the impending release of the international DVD (remember serenity was #1 in britain n such...) i think we'll only get better.

But, ultimately, my pessism wont subside till I see a press release about Serenity II :-\. O well.

I survived a day in Whitefall and all I got was this lousy signature!

Though my soul may set in darkness
It will rise in perfect light.
I have loved the stars too fondly
To be fearful of the night.

Unfortunately I tend to agree with Whitefall’s pessimism. But that doesn’t mean it’s not good news—I’m happy, and hopeful.

Everyone, quick, go out and buy Serenity DVDs!
