Honestly I think given the huge fan following, that the Firefly 'verse still has a chance at getting a second lease on life. Hell, I thought the movie looked stupid when I first saw the previews, but I just watched the whole season in one sitting last night and now I'm posting here. Firefly is the stuff of awesome.

if you look at the dvd sales of both firefly and serenity the numbers are huge, besides the in the black article from above has the numbers as of jan. 31 so what since then?

PaytheMan,

Welcome to our corner of the 'verse. We're glad you're here holdin' the line with us.

Well, all this talk this mornin' of fadin' hopes and cryin'... it's hard to do battle and not feel like that sometimes. But our numbers are growing, as PaytheMan is evidence of.. and these new folks comin' in are full of passion and fight for our 'verse. We have to have more.. how can they do else?

PaytheMan, everyone who joins our shiny site gets a browncoat of their very own from me.. I'm the storeroom clerk...

*hands PaytheMan his browncoat*

Ok, you got your gear. Spread the word about Firefly.. join in on some of the campaigns we have planned for this Summer of Serenity.
Someone will be along and make you feel mighty welcome with some food and drink. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.

Make yourself to home.

"You hold. Hold 'til I get back." Mal

Our new recruits our angels are coming here every day, my local Houston Crew just keeps on growing, how many less than a season tv shows can claim growing numbers, how does a movie that had mediocre success in the box office claim a ever growing fanbase, look at amazons sales, look at the local library, Houston crew donated dvd's to the library, there is a waiting list for Firefly!
Same thing for Serenity.

Hold the line, we will get through, you can't stop this signal.

I shall leave you with more of Big Damn Trilogy www.bedlambards.com

Trilogy, O trilogy, I want my trilogy,
Don't stop at one, Don't stop at two,
Gorramit, gimme three!
Trilogy, O trilogy, that's what I want to see,
Someday I'll own a boxed set
Of that Big Damn Trilogy!

They said we couldn't do it,
They said our show should die,
They took our love, they took our land,
They cancelled our Firefly...

Browncoats are the shiniest folks in the 'verse

I was hoping I'd have a song and statue dedicated to me. Haha thanks Followmal I gotta say that I was surprised that the Firefly movie and series are so high up the Amazon sales list. We've got a ton of steam that keeps building so hold fast!

Don't make me have to carry you soldier! We'll bring it back in etchings if we have to! 'course that doesn't let us see the actors again but we will do the impossible again, after all, that is what we're famous for!

I said this in the, "I Want to Cry..." thread and it applies here just as well. While I maintain that faith (belief) is more important than hope I also believe that hope is at least a bit justified.

So here's what I said in the other thread:

Ok, let me ask a question.

Who here was a fan when Firefly was cancelled?

Raise your hand if you were.

*Raises hand*

Ok, everyone who has their hand up along with me ask yourself something, when we heard there was no chance in hell of Firefly coming back in any form, that a movie was not doubtful, or insane, or stupid, but instead IMPOSSIBLE did you personally give up?

We'll you're here now so I’m betting on no.

We've done the impossible, and that means we're stubborn asses who don’t back down. We hold. That's what we do, even if it isn't intellegent or sane.

Now, everyone who was not around back then, you're here, you're the reason we will get more, you're proof we will get more. The fact that you came to us after the show was off the air, the fact that you came to us at all is all the proof you need that we have reason to hope.

You came here even though the series was canceled and the movie wasn't a huge hit. People like you will keep on coming to us, and that is why we can get more.

More to the point look around, I'll bet you that most people don't have their hands up, and each one with a hand down is one more reason hope for more is justified.

Keep on believing, and keep on spreading the word, and remember that no one ever did the impossible by giving up.
