While I don't think we'd ever see a special edition of the Firefly DVD set, I do think there's a possibility for a special edition Serenity DVD. Just imagine: a 3-disc set which includes an uncut version of Serenity (all deleted scenes back in the movie), all of the extras from every region, and a third disc containing the original unaired pilot of Firefly.

A Browncoat can dream, can't he?



I think we're more likely to get a Firefly special edition set than a Serenity set that includes the pilot. Competing studios rarely, if ever, release things together.

Isn't the original Pilot already on the boxed set?


Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than a license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run

Nope. The version in the boxed-set was the re-cut one after Fox turned down the original pilot, and requested The Train Job as a replacement. The version of the pilot we're discussing was the early cut, and has never been officially released.

How long was the original cut of Serenity?

Is there another place to download it? I'm not a fan of RealPlayer.
