Hope?

Hello Icankillyouwithmybrain:

We are here to convince FOX to either resume Firefly or release the rights so another network can start producing the show. We continue to grow in numbers and show ourselves by buying the DVD's. Firefly has been mentioned by other websites and the message continues to grow stronger. There is a thread that leads to a website to vote for your favorite TV show. If you go there you will see Firefly is in fifth place. Not bad when you consider all the programs that have existed since television sets have found their place in our homes.

I'm not going to make you any promises. I have no say in any network or power over Joss Whedon.
But here is a place that does bring hope. I have found wonderful people here and they have shared their desire to bring this show back.

You must remember what you do have. The original episodes and the movie that came out last year.

I nearly missed out on this myself. I only got a glimpse of Firefly when it first aired and then it was gone. I had completely forgotten about Firefly. Then I went to Best Buys to pick up a couple of movies to add to my collection and I spotted the Firefly collection. I saw Ron Glass on the cover and new this must be a good show. I have never seen Ron Glass without enjoying what ever he is a part of. And as you know after watching the first couple of episodes I came to share the same feeling for this terrific show as you must have. I new their must be a fansite and discovered this extraordinary place.

So we have a lot already. Do not worry about the episodes that could be and learn to cherish those you have.

Come here and make friends to share this with. We have dicovered that we are from different backgrounds and are very diverse group of people. Our backgrounds vary in every way. Some of us are loud and bellow, while others are quite and still. It may be that Firefly is going on right here. There are Malcolms and Rivers and Jaynes amoungst us. We play and joke and question. So if you are looking for more Firefly, then look here. I have discovered new friends and I know there are people here who want to be yours. Be a part of us.

You have picked up that bright little gem called Firefly that Fox tossed to the ground and that makes you a Browncoat. I feel secure in saying we want to share that with you. To laugh at Jayne and cry with River and know that Mal never gives up. To see the love of Zoe and Wash. How Simon cares for his sister. To hear him say Mie Mie as he holds her in his arms. This is ours. You know what I'm talking about or you would not be here.

Does your alias mean River is your favorite character? She overcomes a lot of pain and fear.
I like the ending of the movie when she tells Mal to continue his speech, after he says, "You already know what I'm going to say." She wants to hear his words. I thought it was nice of her to let Mal express his feelings about Serenity.

Do you have some favorite scenes or quotes?

Let us know. That is why we are here.

I do not think we have met? Have you been here awhile or are you new to this site?

So if you are new, welcome.
I hope to see more posts from you.

Take care Icankillyouwithmybrain;
Traveler

I don't know about the rest of you, but I feel like time is running out. Am I just over-reacting or does anyone else feel this way?

One of my friends made the comment to me the other day that Firefly is not coming back and that it is all over. Is it true? What is the situation?

I mean I don't want to give up hope but...

Hmmm, maybe next month. End of the calendar year.

Time not running out. Still a year left on the contracts of all the actors. And even after that it just means re-negotiations. And they all want to do a sequel.

Here is something that just happened recently.
Universal owns the Sci-Fi Channel. Firefly is going to have another Marathon in December USA.
Sci-Fi Channel has a Firefly board.

http://www.scifi.com/firefly/

Firefly used to be in the Classic SCIFI TV

But they have now moved it to SCI FI Channel section which acknowledges that they keep showing marathons.

Universal is showing Firefly on Unviersal HD AND Universal paid to have Firefly taken from film to High-Definition. Sci-Fi has started airing Firefly in France and probably other countries.

We still keep getting *NEW* Official merchandise.

Theaters keep screening Serenity. Charity Serenity Screenings keep happening.

2007 New Serenity comic books.

2007 Serenity model with lights and spinning thing.

2007 New Serenity ornaments or something

There is money to be made in the 'verse.

Nathan (Our Captain) Fillion is going to be on LOST November 8th, 2006. His movie SLiTHER is out on DVD now. White Noise: The Light is being released in theaters January 5th, 2007. As more people find out about Nathan...more people find out about Firefly/Serenity. Same with any of our Big Darn Heroes.

Joss Whedon is going to be making the Wonder Woman movie. Same with Joss.

Since seeing the Movie last year I looked out for the Series, it was not shown on Sci Fi (UK) until recently so at least they have recognised it has a following!

Never give up hope! A war is slow and at times hard, and it is alway darkest before the dawn! TV execs are Business Men and that means build the support and when it becomes viable we are in!

failing that $200,000,000 jackpot on Euro jackpot on Friday if I win it I will pay myself.

Just to add a little here. The wifes brother is coming into town today. He is a lawyer in Houston,Tx and has many friends. He also is a Si/Fi kinda guy (he loves Trek and Planet of the Apes) which makes him a fellow friend of mine. I'll be sending a copy of the BDS back home with him. I'll be willing to bet he calls up wanting more. The verse is getting bigger every day. The rations may be getting low but "hold the line" FF/Serenity will return.

PS: Good luck Evilbungle. I hope you win !!

Hope, like faith, can be a miserable bitch. She tears you up inside like nothing else and can leave you gutted and empty and in complete darkness. As humans we can't help but believe that if enough of us form a community based on love, someone, something, sometime will see our faith/hope and respond, even if it's to take advantage of that for the purpose of making money. I have a sticker on my computer at work that reads, "Since I gave up hope, I feel so much better." Yet, I know I'm not fooling anyone let alone myself. Through two busted marriages and one that's starting to crack, I have tried to hang on to hope. Despite the fact hope hurts, in a ground-glass kinda way. I will add that even when things look the darkest and hope fades from sight and you fall down into that great, cold, black hole from which you feel you will never claw your way up again; out of the corner of your (mind's)eye there will always be a glimmer, a tiny sparkling shard that your passion cannot go unnoticed forever. That is hope and though she be a bitch and a tease and many times false she cannot be killed. Hope thrives on passion and love. I come to these boards for the glimmer and the sparkle and the hope. Keep holding.

"She's tore up plenty, but she'll fly true."
