Hey folks, I just read this over at whedonesque.com and thought you'd be interested... The producers of the "Done the Impossible" firefly fan documentary are planning a Firefly/Serenity Cruise/Convention for December of 2007.

It'll be sort of a Flanvention 3 -- At Sea...

Here's the website:

Just so there's no accidental confusion, it might be like Flan 3 at sea in some sense, but it's NOT being put together by Booster Events, the Flan people.

(I can just see some people thinking otherwise.)

for anyone curious, this is organized by the same folks as done the impossible.

Well, I wasn't thinking of you, I was thinking of the random thread-skimmer.

Oooh...looks shiny! Time and money permitting, that could be quite a fun do. I've never really been intersted in wandering around for several days on a large floating object, but if I ever decided to go on a cruise this would probably be it.

*starts saving up wads of cashy money*

I'm not familiar with the folk who produced DtI. I take it they're a non-profit group who won't speed up the clock and cheat us out of our fun?

My best friend and I attended our first con ever, Flan 2, the Con that never happened...and though we were cheated out of money, we still had a blast, thanks to the SoCal Browncoats and the actors that showed up this past weekend! I was tentative about telling him about the cruise (he's a fan of FF, but not as diehard as I am), but at the mention of it, he was so excited, he burst out, " WE're Going!" We are purchasing our tickets as soon as possible! We were going to go to Paris, but we may have to postpone it for another year....:P

I'm a Firefly, I'm a Firefly......Serenity Now! HeeHee for those who know!

We are going to put up profiles of ourselves on the cruise site soon, but if you've seen Done The Impossible, you should have a pretty good idea of how close we are with this community. In fact if you want to see a very outdated list of what I've done in the name of Firefly check this out:

And to answer your question, we aren't strictly non-profit, but we aren't all that interested in profiting from this, but rather in getting as many Browncoats on board as possible. If we manage to earn enough to help cover for the undoubtedly enormous amount of time we will be putting in, then that will be fine, but that isn't our primary goal.
