Yup! It's a cool place to be. It's only slightly trollish upon occasion, and generally polite. Not too bad.
I can't help but think that Joss' little epilogue was very much aimed at Firefly/Serenity. He wouldn't be telling people reading Whedonesque to keep the faith and so on about something new. Most of the rest are covered. QED.

Keep the Faith and Spread the Love, just screams the "Verse" to me.
So I will Keep the Faith and Spread the Love.

ShadowLeopard, I too see you point, but isn't it possible that Universal or FOX or anyone who might be showing a little interest, simple doesn't want to have anything public right now?
A Iron in the Fire, is simply a beginning. Something that might heat up, but it could take some time.
The most rabid fans of Whedon and the most in need of a litle Faith would seem to be SereniFly fans.
I say Keep the Faith and Spread the Love and that is what I intend to continue to do.

Don't brand the fans, brand the network executives. They're the ones most likely to stray.
I'm sure it's a Firefly reference. Unless Joss plans on starting to deal in blackmarket beagles.

"If they move, kill 'em"
I saw that and immediately wanted to reply "Unless it's the captain!"
Then I remembered that I don't have an account at Whedonesque.
Then I scrolled down and within the first ten comments not one but two people had already said exactly that.
I love Browncoats!

>He's a writer by craft - were he actually wanting to hint at a revival or second movie, it would probably be easier to pick up than vaugely saying he "had other irons in the fire."
Not really. Until contracts are signed and other obligations are completed, Joss wouldn't be allowed to say anything.
And having just returned from WorldCon in Anaheim where Tim Minear and Jane Espensen hinted that nothing was in the works at the moment, this post by Joss is quite encouraging.
As Book said, "I don't care what you believe, just believe it."
I'll believe and hold out hope until Joss tells us to give it up.

*Bump*
Well I've gotta say that any hope of a new series or BDM is better'n none at all. Even if it is in very vague form. Joss talking in riddles or code doesn't bother me. What would happen to this site and the ppl that love FF if someone went to Joss' site and found that he had written " That's it. No more Firefly ever. It's DEAD. Get over it!"
People are always looking for something solid when it may not be the right time for information to be let out. It's not a good idea to say something then have to eat your words later. The thing to do may be to speak in rhyme. Then if something doesn't work out you can always say you were talking about something else. You know get "political" on their a$$.
Oh well, just some thoughts, Z

As 11thHour pointed out, what makes the closing comments significant is that he conspicuously does not mention Serenity or Firefly at all in the post. The last time he directly adressed the status of all things Whedon, the word on Serenity was that he was still waiting for the phone to ring. I believe that if nothing had changed, he would have directly addressed Serenity and Firefly with a similar statement. So while that doesn't mean anything's a go, it sure seems like that phone finally rang! (I just hope it's not a telemarketer, or something...)

...Well, then I'm starting to think we might be the only ones producing content.
" You wanna run this ship ? *beat* Well , you can't ! "
Hey , if you wanna handle the necrophilia , the rest of us will continue with the life support .
Don't worry about bringing everyone down . No one has ever done it yet ! When Firefly was knocked down to the mat , there were a lot of trolls around , saying 'neener , neener' and similarly intelligent drivel , and what have they brought down except everyone's estimation of THEM ?
Enjoy your opinion . That's just what it is . And we'll support and defend your right to it , but if you think you can 'bring everyone down' , your opinion of yourself needs a little "lookin' to" .
We're " STILL FLYIN' ".
Cryptic is good . Subliminal from high command . Encoded for our benefit . Keep the faith , guys in BROWN .
Yep , we're still producing con'-tent . Are we con- 'tent ? Not yet , not 'til our next BD_____ fill in the blank .
Can't take the Sky from me .
