Did you by chance film the Eulogy read by Alan at either the Wake or the panel? I wrote it and I really would like to get a copy of any video if possible.

Sam, I gave my SEBC card to a guy who I saw videotaping the eulogy at the wake and he said he'd be happy to send it to me. Hopefully he will get back to me with it soon.

My plane landed at 7 this morning and this thread makes me wish it was taking off...

I felt sorry for Alan, Summer's always picking on him, she's such a bully.

They didn't mean it when they said the pictures of me wearing a blue glove on my head was going on the net, right?

See some of you at S3!

Well, concerning the sequel. By God I hope Bad2verse is right. But being from Boston (aka Red Sox fan), I'm naturally more of a pessimist. Here 'round these parts, we say, "hope for the best, expect the worst" So I'm gonna play this careful. Cautious optimism, shall we call it? Also, the arguement about Alan's talking. Who would wanna say 'no' to a bunch of Browncoats who don't know the meaning of the word? If anyone were to say 'no', it'd be the producers or the execs, and they haven't said no yet. So yeah, hope for the best.

P.S. Any Yankee fans, even though I'm a die-hard Sox fan, I'd like you to know I fully appreciate and respect the Yankees. (We don't want Browncoats fightin' against Browncoats, now do we?)

Always havin' a good time!

Anyone here that was at the first Q&A session at Dragon*con disagree with that summary?


Yes, I can. I thought he misunderstood the question asked, which was basically "have you read the movie novelization" except jumbled up with a whole lot of other words. He took the meaning as "have you read any of the firefly books out there" (of which there aren't any I know of, so he didn't know of them either). And Summer took the question as thinking it was asking about fan fiction. They couldn't hear it quite right. He did mention after that, that all he had was the movie novilization, which he hasn't read yet.

I want you to be right bad2verse, and am not attacking your thoughts in any way, but I do thinki what your saying is a stretch, even if it is a possibility.





I got the same impression you did. He was more confused by the question and was thinking that there were Firefly novelizations out there that he was unaware of (because they do not exist).

I'm hoping the non-Browncoat people at these conventions notice the Browncoats and decide to check out Serenity/Firefly. Even from a library.

I read somewhere that there were 30,000 people at this convention.

Hopefully, a few of them saw that person dressed as Serenity and realized Serenity IS A SPACESHIP--not some movie about a woman named Serenity who has something to do with that guy in the blue poster.

That is some costume...even have the cargo bay door open with a picture of the crew in the doorway.

That is intensity!

Needed a few of those walking around outside a theater.

This may be the only place in the 'verse where less news is better news, and no news at all is the best possible news.

A request, to anyone who was at D*C and had one of our lanyards...we're looking for any pictures of Browncoats wearing them for a collage on our website. If you have any you don't mind sharing, please send them to us.

It's most appreciated, thank you!
