1. More Zoe. Anything with more Zoe, except pregnancy, unless Wash comes back.
2. This more has to do with the fact that he SHOULDN'T HAVE DIED IN THE FIRST PLACE (not that I'm bitter), but I just want Wash back. Though I can't think of a single way for Joss to do it properly, without making it just awful and trite and stupid.
3. Book's backstory--the most intriguing (if not my favorite) storyline, handily squished by machine gun to tummy.
4. River tricksy-flying.
5. Inara's backstory, and will she and Mal just shut up and get it on already? Aieesh.

Ah, reverse discrimination. You don't have to love it, just recognize it when you see it.
Not necessarily. Any woman on this site who is a fan of the women on the series would realize (I hope) what beautiful women there are on Serenity. I would kind of be scared if men weren't drooling over them.

Hmmm...a lot of what I'm thinkin' has already been said, but...
1.) More characterization, especially for Inara. As someone already pointed out, she was robbed blind.
2.) Blue Sun conspiracies. Yeah, there's gotta be more than just one. I can't see them just making supersoldier readers.
3.) Wash & Book...in flashbacks.
4.) See how stable (or not stable) Zoe and River are.
5.) Enough half-naked characters to keep all us browncoats happy.
I've got no beef with the soundtrack for the BDM. I love it, and for the folks who are upset about the lack of the ballad...heck the strains of the refrain are through most of the music. It's everywhere folks.

I'd like to see....
1) A signboard in a box office reading Serenity II: SOLD OUT, COME BACK LATER.
2) A crowd around the block, wearing browncoats and jayne hats.
3) A big news story on the Serenity sensation that's sweeping the nation.
4) That damn pretty universal logo at the start of the movie.
5) That damn fine ballad remix at the end.
That's what I'd like to see.

Most of the things I would want have already been listed, but there is one that I like that nobody has mentioned.
Am I the only on who noticed that Jayne did not have Verra with him in the movie? Come on, it was his very favorite gun and she needs to make an appearence.

Hey, I drool over them. I think every member of the cast is pretty drool-worthy, to be honest. And, you know, I think it would be unfair if there was eye candy for some but not others. There should be equality. Lots and lots of equality.
Anyway, I could talk about others things I want to see. Most of it's been talked about already, though. I like the last comment about Jayne, though. Where was Vera? I'd like to see a little more of Jayne's story in general, actually. I'd like him to have more... depth. Adam did a fantastic job giving some depth to the most 2-D character on the show, but I'd like him to have a little more to work with. I'd like to see him rescuin' some folk.
But see, that just proves that there have to be more movies. A lot more movies. Could never fit all of this into a couple hours. Esspecially family time, you know. Just sitting around the table or having small jobs to get done.
Hey, here's a thought! Maybe a few nameless execs could pulls their heads out of their respective asses and bring back the show. (I know, I know, it doesn't help to say it over and over. Can't help myself)

Assuming we'll have another BDM, what 5 things would you like to see happen/what changes would you like to see?
1. More emphasis on ensemble cast/dialogue/character interaction (as in Firefly), less on plot progression at any and all costs.
2. Return of Greg Edmonson as composer (and some inclusion of the Ballad).
2. New logo -- that Papyrus thing is just lame - return to Firefly style logo preferable.
4. Introduction of more test subjects from alliance program.
5. Explanation of Blue Sun.
Okay...fine, six:
Bring back Wash (evan as a Reaver if need be).
For me, it would be the following:
1. Mal & Inara dealing with their feelings in the midst of a character evolution for Inara or a major issue involving her job and the Guild. Gotta have CappyCompanion angst as Inara deals with the Guild trying to dump her and coming to realize her beliefs have been misguided.
2. Zoe's handling of the pain of losing Wash. We need to see more of the "Out of Gas" Zoe redux with new facets from being a widow. Plus the issues of Silee (and possibly Rayne and Mal/Inara) going on to remind her of what she has lost.
3. Blue Hands. They got gypped in the comics, so more of the creepy f-ers hunting after River. Maybe combine it with the use of successful Academy grads and secret groups of Blue Sun hunting down their "prototype."
4. Reactions to the Miranda WAVE! I know I am curious to see how things will have changed after such a revelation....so I wanna see some social angst going on
5. Gabriel and Regan. With the above wave and River being more stable, I think some contretemps with Ma and Pa Tam would be good and work well with other ideas that might come up for plots.

1# NOT wash, unless it's a flashback or a dream.
2# NOT a pregnant zoe - it's been done to death in the BSR
3# some more on jayne, maybe a hero moment or a love interest. or just more of him being his gross, immature, violent self. whatever works.
4# blue sun. you know you want to know what's going on with those guys *stares into eyes in manner of mad hypnotist* you want to knooooow...
5# a network exec in the audience who loves it so much they pitch it to their bosses as a series and they jump on it like reavers in a nursery. eew.
and if they could swing it...a regular part for me in the series
