I'm a brand new member of this community, having only recently become aware of the series (and immediately hooked)thanks to purchasing the DVD series due to the urging of friends.

It says so much that the show's creator is fighting for it like this, and I am elated to know that it may continue. Thank you for sharing this.

I'm really glad the Browncoats can give a little back :)

Keep up the good fight. This project is too good to just fade away. Great writing, great concept, great crew, great cast, great music, great fans.

I hope the problems you're facing can be overcome. And if you need fans to step in with some kind of campaign. You know they will. All you need to do is ask. We'd take it as a kindness if you did.

All the power of the 'verse to you!

Now that is way cool.

My top Fireflygasm is Early's "Well, here I am." That hit me like a rock upside the head the first time I saw it. Any series that contains an existentialist masterpiece like Objects in Space is worth fighting for. Keep up the good work, Joss; we're all rooting for you.

Seems to me everybody is focusing more on the factr that he tried to post here (which is real cool) than the message himself.

The whole

"Checking in to say: Rough @%&$#ing week. Trying to work the movie deal, juggling so many balls and dropping them all, basically ending the week going, "I'm done. I'm tapped. Last man down, I don't even think I can do this.""

tirad didn't exactly sound promising.

It's good to know he hasn't given up and is still working hard on it, but does this mean that the movie is pretty much dead?

Mahdi (say, you wouldn't be that thar Kwisatz Haderach, wouldya?), I'd had the same vexing, distressing thought.

However, I would imagine that the process of deaing with dueling studios, lawyers, producers and the like, even when it is going well, is a taxing, twisty affair, apt to sap the mojo from the strongest of us. I can only hope that this is what he was referring to, and not some untoward logjam which actualy threatens our cinematic apotheosis.

Here's hoping!

Keep flyin'!!

Then I hap on this thread, hear all those kick moments and all y'all cooing over them, and I remember why I'm fighting so hard. So when you here dorky sounding things like "The fans' support kept us going", know that on occasion it is not only literally but very specifically true. As in, today. Thanks already.

...

-- The part where the crew finds out about River's REAL... oh wait. That's the movie. Never mind.

Or mind in a while.

Thanks again.

You forgot to post the next bit... for me it is the MOST important part!

It makes me SO happy to have gone over to the RPGsite and found the thread about Firefly and saw the 'Fireflygasm" term. Which was coined (I believe) by 'SteveD:The Exalted of Tangency' on that site.

I loved the term so much I thought it would be cool to start a thread.

I was hoping the prez of Mutant Enemy (who, I was told lurks here oft times)would see the Fireflygasm thread and he would pass on how much the fans paid attention to the show.

Everybody else here on FFFn jumped right in and make the gamble pay off.

Why did I do it ... I can sympathize about ...

...well as Joss put it - juggling - but juggling on a storm wracked ship!

When you try to convince a person or group of the validity of your idea, it can be a nightmare!

Especially if that person/group is not really interested in the genre of your concept, just where it could 'take them'.

Hard and cold, but still vaild ... I am glad we were able to buck Joss up.

Not just to get Firefly back, but because I can understand, even though I am not in his field of work, the 'problem' is still the same in any venue.

You have to spend SO much energy just to convince the $$$ holders that it CAN be done and will be profitable. When you just want to get your story out.

It is EXUASTING!!!

My heart is right there with Joss!

It helps you when folks understand. I think we have done just that.

"If you can't walk out ... crawl out ... if you can't crawl, find somone to carry you out."

True words. Sometimes you need help, sometimes help comes to you. But most of the time you have to ask for help.

Mr. Whedon: I am glad we all could help in this manner!

Fly Free!!!

"(say, you wouldn't be that thar Kwisatz Haderach, wouldya?)"

There may be a slight connection between that and my name....
