I didn't even recognize her. She still looks good. If not better.
Thank You

Yeah, I didn't realize that was Lucy Lawless, either. Was I just not paying attention when Xena was on or did she get better looking with age?

Baby, Thats right, because Joss hasn't done enough things to make sure he is fed. And all of the actors from Firefly has been doing things every since his first works has been out.
Joss isn't the most wealthyist man alive, I know that. But he'll be ok while he makes firefly.
And like you said, "all of us can't hold out for a pipe dream most of us know is never going to come true". So whats the point of this web site again?
You maybe a fan of Joss' work and thats fine. But unless its Firefly, I really don't care what Joss is making. I didn't like Buffy or Angel.
I don't have time to watch every TV show or every movie. But I'll make time to watch Firefly, and as long as we are trying to make a differance to help Firefly come back, I'll make time for that as well. If we are just going to give up and hope for the best, and only use this web site as a chat room. I'm sorry I don't have time for that and I won't make time. If you do not see things the way I do, Thats fine. As long as you can respect it.

Angel was stolen from him (Joss found out like half way through the last season that he had to wrap everything up), and he fought to keep that on the air and lost. Fox doesn't care, they never have. They (Joss and his casts) and all of us can't hold out for a pipe dream most of us know is never going to come true. We got the BDM, and to be honest, it's more than I ever expected. Just be happy we still get the opportunity to see a creation of Joss', whatever it may be, come to life.

Not to worry , MARINE ! I feel certain that there will be more Firefly content .
Everyone is willing . Joss is willing . The cast are willing . The Browncoats are willing . The Hollywood investors are willing . Mary Parent took a chance on us once . Sooner or later , the execs at Universal will see the wisdom of greenlighting another sequel .
No doubt there are people in Hollywood who look at Browncoat activities and numbers on virtually a daily basis . There is nothing that Hollywood loves so much as a 'franchise'. We will just keep doing our parts individually , buying the boxsets , the licensed merchandise , novelizations , comic books , etc . Every bit of it 'counts'.
Every time we buy some new Serenity product , another F*X 'executive' goes to Hell... The 'Special' Hell . And we get further along toward reaching our next critical objective...
More Browncoats = More CRITICAL MASS . More butts in theater seats on the next outing . Keep recruiting , Keep Buying , Keep the Faith , We WILL get there . When the next BDM comes along , it will BREAK OUT BIG TIME !
The Serenity dvd WILL be profitable , no doubt it already is... Remember , Serenity was chosen as Universal's first HD-DVD release . They wouldn't do that for a film they considered to be a 'loser'.
One thing that people are forgetting is that shortly after Serenity opened last September , this country had the crap kicked out of it with a couple of MAJOR hurricanes...Katrina and Rita , and the country's attention was diverted to some very pressing matters...
When Serenity opened last year , it opened against Jodie Foster's movie , FLIGHTPLAN . But it turned in some very respectable numbers on opening weekend , despite being on fewer screens .
Now , I like Jodie as much as the next guy , but I considered it to be much more important to see Serenity time and again . On premiere day I took some family members to see it . The next day I went back and saw it a couple more times .
On several more occasions , I took other friends and family back to see it . I saw Serenity at least 8 times while it was on first-run in theaters . If it was playing right now , I'd go back and see it some more . It looks that good on the big screen , and I enjoy it in some new aspect with each repeat viewing . This is not some chore , it is a 'Labor of Love' !
At one of the theaters where it ran for 2 months , I spoke to the manager and asked how it had done for them . He said that Serenity had done solid and steady business while they had it there . I have yet to see 'Flightplan' , either in the theater , or on DVD . Can't say that I feel that I've missed anything .
As long as I've got my Serenity , and my Firefly boxset , I'm going to hold 'til our B-D-Heroes get back...No brag , just fact...As long as any of us are DOING anything , it makes a difference !
This summer , nearly $65,000 was raised at Serenity charity screenings around the world ! This kind of stuff GETS NOTICED in Hollywood . Browncoats are not a bunch of flakes . We are here to stay...And we're just happy to be doin' good works !
We need you , MARINE ! Keep the Faith , Brother , and RECRUIT another BROWNCOAT today !
Keep the Faith . Share the Love . Feel the Joy !

As for Lucy she looks great. She is actually on deuts with the stars (yes, I know) as a blonde--not the best look for her. She is beautiful but not STRIKING as she is with dark hair. Regardless, she is lovely and aging well.
As for the future of Firefly I got my husband to agree that if we win the big lottery we can finance the creation of Firefly seasons 2 on. (It has to be Firefly because I want Wash alive!) I kept telling my hubby "If we can get it up and running the Browncoats will help." He thinks I'm a little to involved but hey, he loves the show also.
EVERYONE keep your fingers crossed for the big one (lottery). I promise to come through for all of us :)
When I win (positive thinking) I'm also having the mama con the mother of all Jossverse cons...I plan it when I'm stuck in traffic, or frustrated with my job. My own therapy :)
Ok, back to reality.......
I believe that fan intrest CAN make things happen...hello Serenity! So lets keep our heads up and keep voting with our dollars. The studios go where the money is. I bought another copy of BDM on Serenity day even though I was late on other bills. I'm voting with my $ and showing support by being here :)

Thanks for being here , ZRBS ! And thanks for your support ! Good to know you've got that solid Browncoat spirit ! We love you for that !
Ditto your sentiments about Lucy . She's definitely still looking good . There may be better choices for Wondy-Gal , but there are definitely worse ones ! The striking brunettes always light the belly-fires...
Going to pledge to do my part for Firefly 2 also . Not really a gambler myself , but if there's a sudden windfall , I'm right there with you !
Never mind about 'reality'. What passes for 'reality' these days is definitely sucking...
Paying bills also sucks ; more 'Serenity' is always good...Maybe that one will be a loaner or a gift for someone you care for...
Browncoat Welcome and Thanks for keeping the Faith , ZRBS ! Appreciatin' your post !
Browncoat Solidarity !

Hello Marine:
For me, I feel lucky. I only saw about five minutes of Firefly when it actually aired. A lot of time went by and I really didn't think much about it. Then one day I wanted to by some new DVD's so I went to the nearest Best Buy to see what they had. I noticed the Firefly collection and took a look at it. I began to remember the five minutes I watched. Ron Glass was in it. Now I like Ron Glass so I said to myself "Lets give this a try". Well you know the rest. I've gone through the entire series 12 times at least. When the movie came out I went the first day. As soon as the movie DVD hit the streets I bought it. Now it is the fifteenth episode for me.
I like a lot of science fiction. I remember "Men into Space", in the early 60's. "Twilight Zone" was excellent. The first Star Trek. Our TV was broken and all we could get was the sound so I listened to the first Star Trek without even seeing who was in it.
I have a thing for science fiction.
I started watching Buffy almost from the start. I was in my mid forties when Buffy aired and here I was watching teenagers fight off vampires. I do not think the show was designed for my age bracket but I think it was a great show.
Maybe I don't eat, drink and sleep Firefly, but I want it back. I googled Firefly and found this site. It is people like Phoenixrose who have helped me learn about the characters, the way the plots weave together, how they change with each episode. Now when I start watching Firefly it is fresh again because I know more about it from people like Phoenixrose.
We don't always agree, but we are diverse. Firefly has a fan base that spans different age groups, cultures, religious beliefs, and every other group you can come up with. I am 54 years old and share this fan site with people who are 10 year olds. Joss created a show that has no boundries I can ever find.
My favorite thread is when a new Browncoat makes their first post to say hello to us. We run to to that thread a greet that person with open arms and big hugs.
If there was never another episode of Firefly again I would not cry about it. I feel blessed with what I have.
They can not take the sky from me. Those words mean something to me.
So we discuss other things besides Firefly. I am a fan of the early Flash Gordon series. Others have their own favorites.
This thread is about Wonder Woman.
I'm more an X-Men fan myself, but I didn't like the movies that much.
I'm waiting for Wonder Woman, because I think it will be great.
That does not lesson my desire to see Firefly back on TV.
I think Joss really wants to do Wonder Woman. He could just about do anything he wants. But he choose Wonder Woman. Joss is more than Firefly. Who knows what projects he has in his mind. We don't own him. He is free do what he wants. But we are here to let him know we would like more Firefly. I am sure he is quite aware of that. He made the movie "Serenity" didn't he? That's because he knew we wanted more.
He had about one week to make the Train Job, but did he just throw something together. No. It is a fine piece of work that holds it own with the rest of the show. Joss does not create junk. And I will be there when Wonder Woman comes to my town. Because Joss always does his best with any project.
The fans, of this site, are here to let Joss know we want Firefly back. Never doubt that. For all our diversity we have that in common.
So do not doubt our purpose. We are Browncoats.
