"SAILING THE RIVER TAM
Buzz inside certain Los Angeles law firms suggests that talent contracts are being hammered out, and they’re timed around a May start for an upcoming Universal feature about a starship captain, a space hooker, a mysterious preacher and a pair of fugitives named Tam. The bad news: under the scenario discussed, “Firefly: The Movie” wouldn’t hit multiplexes until late 2005."

Keep Flying...

I don't particularly see this as bad news... Late Firefly is better than NO Firefly!

Late 2005 is perfect. Episode 3 will be out of theaters by then, and the legions of Star Wars fans will be looking for something else to latch onto.

Speaking as a devout SW fan, I have plenty of love to give to both Firefly AND Star Wars.

Great science fiction is great science fiction...doesn't matter who writes it, directs it or stars in it.

2004 or 2005 doesn't really matter to me. I would rather wait a while longer and get a quality movie, one that will convert a lot of new fans.

Speaking as a formerly devout Star Wars fan, I'd be placing bets that the third movie will suck more than the second (as the second sucked more than the first) and that fans will be so disheartened by the suckiness of George Lucas that they'll be willing to try any Sci-Fi out, even a plucky space-western with no aliens. I beleive these fans will be amazed at a sci-fi with an actual worthwhile story to be told instead of some crappy plot devices to string together a bunch of over-done CG effects.

But that's just my opinion.

Me too. I can wait a long time, as long as I know the reward at the end of the wait will be a FF movie.

Umm... I hate to whine, but the page with the Firefly news on it has a HUGE Angel spoiler. Could you put a warning about this?

Other than that, thanks for posting the news!

Oh, I love Star Wars too. Not the prequels so much, but the universe. I've got The Unifying Force on my shelf right now......I'm putting off reading it, because I don't want The New Jedi Order to be over.....
