Joss has moved on, he'll come back if Universal offer him the chance to make sequels, but if he doesn't get that then he seems pretty happy to just have Serenity and the upcoming comic books.
Nathan seems to REALLY want a trilogy, though he also wants Mal to die at the end.
The others aren't particularily vocal about their feelings other than the fact they'd be more than happy to come back for more.
It's great to see so much enthusiasm from new people to get the show/films back on, but it'd be nice if they checked older posts to see that this sort of post pops up about once per month, and it always reaches the same conclusion: Help sell DVDs. Good DVD sales = profit = sequels.
The release of 'Done The Impossible' should give us a little more publicity, and fireflyseason2.com was trying to find out about rights (don't know if that's still a possibility or not) but apart from that we just have to wait for official word.

I think The Master has given many such signs. Every time anyone asks him, he says he has a lot more to tell about the 'Verse, he's just waiting for the phone to ring. Well, he's not just waiting, he's working on other projects too, but he hasn't given up. I do think he's tired and he's certainly in demand for other projects and waiting for the phone to ring doesn't put food on the table, so he's wise not to just mope and whine, like I'm inclined to do, for Firefly to come back.

Yes. I agree with you Grizzy. Course, It´d be great to receive a word from Joss. But I don´t think, that a statement from him would help in the matter at the moment, because it´s not HIS decision, it´s up to UNIVERSAL. As far as I undestand, Joss can´t make a statement about a Sequel without p... off Universals executives. Forget it. You have to believe, that he´s still behind the project. I think otherwise he would´ve told us.

"Oh Dragonbreth! Gilthorpial!" he yodeled, waving his cleaver around like a madman. He lunged at the nearest wraith with his unwieldly sword. "Banzai!" he screamed. "No quarter asked or given! Dam* the torpedoes" Taking a vicious swipe, Stomper missed his mark by a good yard and tripped on his scabbard.

From the great site:
http://www.mts.net/~arphaxad/firefly.html
Unification Day (Late May)
After a week of negotiations, a peace agreement is reached, with the Independents surrendering to Alliance forces.
"The Train Job," the Firefly DVD, and the Firefly website. Lund says it was "(s)ix years today (that) the Alliance sent the Browncoats running." In the same deleted scene referred to earlier, Zoe tells Simon that they were left at Serenity Valley for a week while both sides negotiated the peace, so I have taken Unification Day to be the day those negotiations were finalised, providing an official end to the war.
All of the settled worlds are united as a result of the peace agreement and the Anglo-Sino Alliance, which had originally formed on Earth-That-Was, comes to be formally known as the Union of Allied Planets. It is considered by some to be the dawn of a new galaxy.
Hey, my b-day is in late May!
I agree - read the posts of Browncoat1 and Artcat and ChronicTHH - years of experience fighting the good fight! The few people who can actually make the call and produce the next installation of the 'verse have to $want$ to do it, and buying those lovely dvds is a good way to make them, uh, wantful.

I think theres lots and lots of good points. But i why dont we do all those things everyones on about, no-one can say any different that there hasnt been an influx of new recruits. So why dont we talk to everyone (Joss Wheden), family friend, make the petitions ect ect but do it all at once to make it huge.

On this Reverse Unification Day as many as possible maybe should buy the BDM. I so many people buying multiple copies and such but maybe that's one way that we could show our numbers. Or for those who can't buy it rent it. The think the big bump in profit would let them know that we can be organized plus we really want Firefly.
I really think that we'll eventually get a sequel one way or another. I think the dvd sales are good enough but they want to keep things rolling since more and more people keep joining the ranks. Remember, sequels do take a few years to come out. I'm sure in 3 years or less we'll be seeing Serenity 2. I'd perfer a tv show but hey, beggars can't be choosers.
As for the comments that he is giving up...he hasn't. He's just waiting for a call. It's not up to him at this point, but in the mean time I think he's just doing other projects to pay the bills.
I don't remember if I have done this on this site or not, but I do want to show my appreciation for the veteran Browncoats. Without you guys the Browncoats that converted me may not have exsisted. Plus I know the BDM would not have happened so thank you all. I've only been a fan for a few months but I've been trying to do what I can and convert everyone I know. Thanks again guys.

Reunification Day sounds like a real shiny idea. If every 'coat goes and buys or rents the DVD, or heck really just about anything that'd help make the Big Heads take some notice. Plus then of course that'd be a perfect day for mass Serenity screenings in various venues. (Hey, we're pretty much a cult, maybe we should start hanging out in airports and malls and handing out copies of the BDM... we'll be waiting patiently behind the Hari Krishnas :)
I agree with the others about Joss and our Heroes as per more continuations. If it's hard being a browncoat and being hooked on a cancelled show, I can't imagine what a rollercoaster it must have been for those who gave it to us. I haven't heard anything, aside from what seemed more like quotes taken out of context, that would make me think any of our pretty heroes wouldn't jump at the chance to fly in Serenity again.
Same time, everyone has to make a living. I think it's real shiny that everyone seems to be getting projects. Joss in particular seems rather busy, and that can't help but increase his pull in the industry. If he says he's waiting for a phone call from Universal, then that's where my letters will be going to.
Oh, and I'll shut up now :)

Fwiw I like it. Seems like a good date with some precedent (and sentiment) already set. A Friday too, nice day for participating in some commerce. I also like "Re-Unification Day," over "Reverse Unification..." for anyone keeping track.
So who stamps it and makes it official?
