Hello!

I'll quote Joss on this one. If Universal call him to make another Serenity movie, he'll do it. He's not fighting for another movie at the moment, however, as Serenity took 3 years out of his life, and he has Wonder Woman at WB and Goners ( www.gonersmovie.com) at Universal[/url] in development for 2006/2007.

There's an outside chance Serenity 2 will happen still - if it does, look for around 2008-2009 release. It's all down to financing, and we're talking $xx,xxx,xxx dollar figures again.

I give it 40:60 that it will be made.

Im not giving up, but I must admit im getting a bit worried. Lol by the time Serenity 2 does come out if its made I wont need the DVD's for Serenity and Firefly, they will be inprinted in my brain.

Ah, young Browncoat, you have much to learn. The advanced masters can already see all things 'versy playing out on the back of their eyelids! Makes sleeping even more fun!

Hey, look for what kinda triple-crapfest the Star Wars fans waited 20 years for! And Serenity is actually worth making a fool of yourself.
I don't think there will be anything nearly this shiny in the Sci-Fi sector in a long time, maybe ever (apart from the pitch I'm preparing to give to a few guys I know who have a computer game company, http://www.replaystudios.de/ I have to keep myself from making it too 'verse-like, unfortunately, although of course I stole a few great aspects. But it's just a pitch for a Sci Fi concept called Astra Incognita. You heard it here first. ).
Anyways, I plan to live like there's gonna be more Serenity to come, wether that will happen one day or not.
Hell, Christians haven't seen a sequel to the bible in 2000 years, and they're still sticking around. I ain't gonna be outhoped by no Christian! I can see the EARTHLY power to bring back my favorite stories right there!
Now who's got a better chance, eh?
Hey, how's that for some blasphemus pep-talk?
Just kidding, of course, I'm cool with whatever God you worship, and I do not worship Serenity, I "just" love it.
Fortunately, I'm far from alone, and neither are you.

Welcome!

BROWNCOATS UNITE!

Well, there are the novels and comic books coming. There's also the DVD drive on June 23rd and this summer that will hopefully increase the fanbase and make Universal see that there's more money to be had - supposedly they were surprised with the strong DVD sales, so if those are kept up, they might just realize that they've got a product on their hands. Austin Powers, for example, didn't do so hot in theaters during its first run, but it had enough DVD sales (I think it was the first) where it was decided to make a sequel - and hey, they even got their trilogy.

So, I guess the best thing to do next to waiting is to keep converting friends, families and people you meet on the bus. Help with the DVD campaigns if you can, and buy the DVD to give to friends or the library.

But hey, even then we've still got the books and comics coming. And the Browncoat community.

One day.
One plan.
One army of Browncoats.

On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.

This show was / is something incredibly special, both the people who made it and the people who saw it realize that,
Summer Glau was qouted as saying something about wishing she could play river till she was old and in a wheel chair.

Unlike in a lot of movies and shows, we have this amazing knowledge that if it gets greenlighted, the cast AND crews are behind it.

Browncoats are the shiniest folks in the 'verse

I think I won't give up hope until the cast/crew start giving up the secrets - Book's past, what Inara is running from, etc, etc.

They know the secrets and have said if the verse doesn't get to continue they'll tell us. So if we find out about Book's horrendously overdue library items and Inara's respectable past through them... they've given up so we probably should too.

OK

Lets think here for a minute. How many years between the end of Firefly and the BDM?

It hasn't even been a year since the BDM and you are giving up?

Hold I tell you. Give things a chance to work out!

Where the deuce did you learn this? Ditto the script?

Further down the board?

And I QUOTE -

""At Collectormania 9 this weekend, Alan Tudyk revealed that Joss had told him that Wash and Book would both be in a sequel to Serenity, if it happens. Alan was speaking at a panel talk on Sunday April 30th where he was joined by Ron Glass. When asked if the two would consider being a part of the sequel, Alan replied that he had been told both characters would return in any second film. ""

Am I the only one who reads every tidbit we get then dissects it and checks the sources for reliability?

Yeah, folks. Just look how long it took Star Trek to get anywhere after the OS. It, too was a cancelled SF show...at a time when SF shows were a mite thin on the ground (mainly due to bad writing.) It was cancelled in, what? 1969? And when did they get their first movie? 1980. That was 11 years! We got ours in three. I'm thinking we'll get more. Like Trek, it'll take time, but it'll also give the fan base time to expand.

That's what gives me hope...like Trek, our fan base is expanding, which is highly unusual for a cancelled series. We just gotta do our part to make sure it stays accessable to folks who haven't already seen this shiny 'verse yet...keep recruiting so the demand for merchandise keeps, to keep TPTB happy, and help them to consider giving us more.
