Head on over to movieweb.com to see our show in the top selling DVD's section. Most of the competition is three different versions of the new Harry Potter flick.

Good news! Also at the UK Amazon Serenity is ranked 4th and Firefly 8th (but it's just because it's sold out and it's dispatched within 1 to 2 weeks)!

I tried to check this out, but not only could not find the reference, I was asked to BUY a membership. What a rip. I have better things to do with my money ( like buy more firefly )then this. I don't appreciate reading a thread that turns out to be from a fishing ad.

Does this qualify as trolling?

Calm down, all you had to do was click on "Shop".

That's great. Both are still doing pretty well on UK Amazon too:

Sorry, it wasn't intuitive to me. I don't usually fly off the handle like that, but I was pretty pissed about being asked to buy a membership.

Does anyone have any clue where Firefly actually stands. I have heard that Joss and Nathan have officially given up on the show. The DVD sales are great so I don't understand why this would be the case. Also, I heard something about a three series novelization that would follow the events of serenity. Anybody else heard about this?

nobody knows for certain where the show stands though I'd never say that they'd given up on it. it just a matter of if the DvD's sell well (which they are) will someone (Universal, Fox, Scifi, etc) contact Joss with a reqesat of doing something else with the show. he'd definately do something if asked (he has constantly said that he would) but its doubtful if anyone will. it almost never happens that a cancelled tv show gets made into a hollywood movie and two such miracles for firefly may be too much to ask. even if something does happen it won't be for a few years - took about two years of the series being on sale befoe a film came about.
as for the novels - there will be three - the movie novilisation that is out at the moment is the first and the next two will tell completely new tales post Serenity Movie - no dates or authors announced as of yet. Soooo if worst comes to pass and no more movies - series get made maybe the show'll live on in book form? with perhaps more comice as well. I'd settle for that as long as they were kept within Joss's vision and influence (unlike the star wars / trek novels which seem like anyone who wants to can just make up a story in that verse)

Yeah the same with Play.com, Serenity is at No.1 and Firefly complete series at No.3. So fingers crossed for a serenity 2.

Just to clarify, KRAD's novelization of Serenity is only within Joss' vision and influence in as much that it is based on the movie. Joss didn't actually supervise, edit, or otherwise have much to do with the book. He said that if he were involved then he would have had to devote a large amount of time that he didn't have to make sure things were right. As such, the novelization isn't canon, per se.

The comics, however, are Joss' creation, and are considered canon. There have already been three (recently rereleased as the TPB), and there are three more planned for this summer, I think it is.

Just sayin', is all

We, as browncoats, will settle for anything having to do with the 'verse. Books are ok with me too.

I would prefer a series, if not that then more movies......(more than just one more)

We showed the powers to be what we wanted before, so why aren't they listening????

Whining! I know that is how I sound... I am just impatient with waiting longer.....for a crumb of something to say that the 'verse will continue. It just seems that that is NOT going to happen and I am very saddened.....
