Reavers in the movie would be interesting, but I'd also like to see more of the Alliance brass. And Niska. We definately need to see Michael Fairman as Niska again! He's the scariest villain I've ever seen on network TV, shockingly scary, with the whole ear amputation and such. Frankly I'm suprised they showed that bit...it brings back memories of the stomach-turning "EAR" scene from "Reservoir Dogs". Mr. Niska as Mr. Blonde. Kudos to Mr. Fairman!!!

My point is that a) Joss has already stated that the plot of the movie will revolve around Reavers, and b) with such a large cast, the last thing the movie needs is a confusingly large ensomble of villians.

Like I said earlier, I think the Alliance will probably chase them into Reaver territory, but that's probably as much as you're going to see out of non-Reaver villians.

But look at the Pilot‘s baddies-- we had the Alliance, Revers, Badger, Patience, and blue hand guys in the background. I’m sure we can get more than just Revers in the movie.

I've been out of the loop for a while...Has it been established that all of the crew of serenity are signed on for the film? I remember joss saying that it would be a factor. I 'd hate to think of the boat sailing without Book, or Kaylee, or Wash or well, maybe Inara.

I don't think it's got to the stage of official casting yet, although as you say, Joss has said that the movie has to have the original cast. We'll just have to keep our fingers crossed that everyone's available!

As far as I know, the only people with other obligations are Nathan Fillion and Morena Baccarin- he has a "talent holding" deal with NBC that probably doesn't restrict him from movie projects, and she has a part on another Fox show which, knowing Fox, won't last too long. I'd say the odds of getting everyone back are pretty good.

What show is Morena supposed to be on? I'd be interested to see her

I don't expect that Nathan's Talent Holding deal will amount to much of a problem, seeing as NBC recently acquired 'Versal Pictures (not to mention the SciFi Channel. Hmmm...).

I for one would love to see a revisiting of the merc captain and his motley crew from Out Of Gas. He had an interesting glint in his eye, and more personality than the part, as mere words on a page, would seem to have demanded. Actually, I rather thought that he was only one or two scruples removed from Mal himself, and thus VERY interesting. Plus, they have some unfinished business...
