Good grief, that's been sitting there since Friday night. Thanks for picking up on that, Firelily. Here are full words (Affablechap being Chris Buchanan, pres of Mutant Enemy):

OK Girlie, you asked for it...
"Hi" to all Browncoats.
Sit tight.
All is well.
All are very busy.
Train is still on the tracks.
Boulder almost to the top of the hill.
No real news until everything is in place.
Patience is indeed a virtue.
Love is the universal language.

This is most accurate news yet in weeks. Lookin' good . . . if I can be Standard Firefly Optimist (tm).

I would still prefer a TV show...

To be honest, I really want closure more than anything else. Often times when a show gets cancelled I never get any closure. While I would love to see the show come back, I don't want to build my hopes up just to have them dashed. That doesn't mean, however, that I won't do everything in my power to spread the joy that is Firefly. Maybe if the movie does well enough, someone will pick the show back up.

I can just see the J.O.s running the studio now, after a "Firefly" movie does well...
EXEC 1: "Wow, that new Whedon movie made millions."
EXEC2: "Yeah. Pretty damn good. A Western set in Space with lots of Chinese swearing thrown into the mix. Who would've thought..."
EXEC1: "You know how I think we can really cash in?"
EXEC2: "Gee, no, how?"
EXEC1: "Let's make it into a TV show! I think the stories could be scaled down into, say an hour-long weekly show."
EXEC2: "Sounds good."
"You can't take the sky from me..."

ROFLMAO!!! I can imagine the Fox execs doing just that.
If the movie does generate a resurection of the TV series, I hope some other channel picks it up. Any channel BUT Fox.

More likely what we'll get is a bunch of retarded clones by the very same idiots that never really got it in the first place. Sigh. It sure sucks being cynical and right.

... but now that we know the formula, lets just do our own version."
EXEC1: "Yeah! We could get Jerry Bruckheimer to do a treatment on it. Have his research people run it by some test audiences, figure out how we can tweak it for maximum appeal to our target demographic. Work out some choice product placements. We'll need some actor's and directors willing to play ball. Let's run it by marketing and see how she flies!"
