Just returned from MOONLIGHT RISING CON where our captain entertained and delighted everyone with his uncanny ability to find humor in just about everything. Funny, funny guy!!! Very down to earth and approachable.
I had the opportunity to sit at his table for the Saturday night banquet. I asked him if he thought a SERENITY sequal was being worked up,
but his answer was somewhat discouraging. He talked about the money thing[box office]and said that a sequal was improbable.
We also talked about SERENITY DAY and he said he hadn't been on the internet for awhile and was hearing about this for the first time. He seemed to appreciate the efforts of the fans,and said he was going to be "looking into" the Serenity Day activities. I suggested he visit this website for more info....maybe he'll visit!!
Also got to meet KAELE and JANESBUNKMATE....good people!
Adam Baldwin was a last minute no-show....lots of disappointed fans, male and female. The promoters managed to fill his slot with Jonathan Woodward[TRACEY from THE MESSAGE]who was alot of fun and real cute. All in all it was a fun time.
Meeting NATHAN was a real treat for me, an event I'll remember for the rest of my life.

I was also at the Moonlight Rising Con. I had a blast, particularly meeting Nathan and Jonathan Woodward. Nathan was hilarious and drew all over my tattoo and then signed it, so my arm was my autograph book for a while. (I got one on a poster later). Jonathan was really cool, and made it a point to be out circulating with the people. Although the event was ridiculously unorganized, I had fun, and meeting Nathan was amazing.

Yay! Congrats to the congoers!

Adam had said a few days ago that he wouldn't be able to attend, so I'm glad Jonathon stood in so that fans weren't too devestated.

Shame that it really sounds like the hopes for a sequel are fading.

I have to agree with the thread title; I have been to a lot of cons and the Q&A with Nathan and Jonathan was the most entertaining one I have ever attended. The guests were very approachable and friendly, and we weren't rushed through the autograph like like cattle. I would go to see him again in a minute.

Sex and violence on the big screen, where it belongs.

Nathan seems to be a pretty cool guy, every time someone writes about an con he's been at, or from the vids I've seen of them, he seems to be down to earth and funny. He definately looks like he makes a mark on any convention he appears at

Hope I get to see him myself some day

I agree with NF being awesome! That man has one of the best smiles I have ever seen. Jonathon Woodward as well.

I had him sign my Buffy/Angel poster on Saturday, and he told me that he auditioned for the part of Angel. It's hard to picture him as Angel...it's hard to picture him as anyone other than Cap'n Reynolds. ;) I just thought that was interesting.

I met all of the second tier guests at last year's MR, but it was nice to see how well everyone interacted with each other, especially during the Jossverse Q&A today...which was A-MAZING!

Here's my photo op with NF:

(No my hair isn't green...stupid green screen It's worth it, though!)

Thank you all for sharing!
It's nice to know that Nathan Fillion is down-to-Earth. I am sorry about Adam Baldwin, but I would not have minded meeting Jonathan Woodward...I liked his role.

Again, thank you for sharing...lucky!

Thanks for posting about your great time at the
convention.

When you say you mentioned SERENITY DAY, do you mean you just mentioned Buying DVDS or the whole summer thing or did you mention that BROWNCOATS around the world are arranging Serenity Charity Screenings????

43+ Cities In 5 Countries On 3 Continents

Can't Stop The Serenity

The Press release

I bet Nathan doesn't know that http://serenitymovie.org replaced the old Universal Browncoat Board. His old login won't work. Everyone had to get new logins. Universal couldn't release the logins because of privary rights issues. But Gossi was able to get an archive of the original and a link to the new board on http://serenitymovie.com (Universal's Serenity movie promotion site) Under the Join the Browncoats link.
