All great thoughts here - I would personally like to see the series continue. There are many routes to go down... for instance:

*River could become the resident powerhouse on the ship and could start participating in jobs more heavily through planning and kicking butt(and piloting the ship)

*Flashbacks to different scenes with Book on the ship could be shot, as well as flashbacks to what might have been with Zoe and Wash (Zoe fantasizing about kids for example, real tear-jerker stuff). Along with everyone flashing back and actually getting time to mourn their two departed friends

*Jayne becoming steadily more loyal and moral

*Kaylee and Simon of course going through the start of a real relationship together (jealousy, passion, all those little things like holding hands - and Jayne's wisecracks about it, ha ha)

*And finally looking into why Inara left the core worlds and started wandering, along with new moments with Mal

I just think there are lots of ways the series could still go - we could also see how bad the Alliance was hurt from the Reaver information! Maybe bring back characters from the first season, like Jubal possibly renouncing his ways and joining the crew??? Or Saffron??? A new revolution starting up again??? I realize I am grasping here...

The movie Serenity also served as to what Season 2 would have been, albiet in two hours. So if we were to get a Season 2 now, it would technically be picking up where Season 3 would have been. Besides, I would rather see a continuation of the story, not a precursor.

I didn't know it was supposed to season 2. So then the real season 2 would be what would have been season 3. I still want to see some of that stuff but I can want all I want and see if any of it comes true.

And we still don't know anything about the Blue Hands thugs. We don't know why Shepard Book was "so important" when he was wounded and had to be taken to the Alliance ship "Dorkmunder" or whatever...

And who says that Book and Wash can't be resurrected? If we can clone a higher mammal today, imagine what we could do in the future. There's a plot line in itself, we've got to stop the evil alliance from getting Rivers DNA and cloning her! Oh God we're doomed! Who's flying this thing? Oh, that would be me... Okay bad quote. Bad Bad Chmee...

There are a lot of unanswered questions out there. Wanna bet you can think of more?

What happened to the Blue Hands was explained in the comics.

"I aim to misbehave."
"Can't do something smart, do something right".

HOMER: "Oh Lisa, you and your stories; Bart is a vampire, beer kills brain cells. Now lets go back to that... building thingy... where our beds and T.V.... is".

Comics? I thought that was something only Wash would read...

Actually I didn't even know there were comics!

Well, go read them!!! They act as a prequel to the movie, and also a bridge for the series and movie; telling us how Book and Inara left, what happened to the Blue Hands, how the Operative comes in, a cameo by Badger, how Mal and crew and hooked up with Fanty and Mingo, plus a surprise visit by a past villian!!!

the ship that broke them(river) out wasn't a firefly class ship. it was much to small. (oh and the script kinda says that it was small too)

So I ran out and bought the comic (and the visual companion, and Finding Serenity) and I guess it does bridge the gap... but I don't see how it really explains the blue hands. I mean, it's pretty short, you can't get everything in, and it's a comic book so the style is all different. All it did was maybe reinforce my idea that the blue hands are, well, robots, since it looks like they're covered with that blue laytex from the neck down, and show that they kind of passed the mission on... but you know it doesn't explain the decision to reneg on the "wanted alive" thing on River's warrant. They wanted her alive, and the Operative just wanted to stop her.
I did really liked everything with Shepard Book, though, that was a nice way to explain him leaving.
Anyway, no reason they couldn't film the comics. Tell me it wouldn't be cool to see a zero-g battle on the screen.

Whos to say that it was Serenity that picked up the Tams as they made their escape from "The special hell" cooked up by Key Members of Parliament.

Could have been a different ship. Even a different Firefly

It wasn't Serenity that picked up Simon and River at the beginning of the movie. In the series pilot, Simon explained that he paid some men to help him break River out of the Alliance facility. That's what was shown at the beginning of Serenity. Simon and River never actually boarded Serenity until the series pilot. The escape scene at the beginning of the movie was simply to inform those who've never seen Firefly on a bit of the background of why Simon and River are wanted by the Alliance. It was also a good way to introduce the Operative which was a scene that was important to the story (the Operative mentioning that River was in a room with key members of Parliment with that connecting to River knowing about Miranda).



I like this idea, but what if the resuce scene at the begning of the movie was actually serenity and its crew, say the alliance did capture river and wanted to finish what they started, thats why in the film she a killer weapon and not a basket case.

You know that you all loved Season 1 and the move was good also. Why don't we trust in the man that made us fall in love with the show. I'll be willing to bet he awwwwws us all.
