For some reason, I can't seem to get the trailer you linked to come up for me, so I don't know exactly what you have going on there, but from your stills and the enthusiasm you have about your work it looks good.
I'm studying computer animation right now. Believe me, if this were something I had the means to work on, I'd be all over it.
Bottom line - We'd watch it. We'd all watch it. And we'd love it.
You need QT7 installed

Are you really giving up on the idea of making the animated series? I was under the impression that the purpose of this forum was to get the attention of someone who had the means to continue the series, and yet somehow we have convinced you not to do it. What do we have to do to convince you that it's a good idea?

I went to 4 different boards. About 65% of people are pro animate. The rest aren't too fond of the idea, but not against it. These are the die hard fans. I think given these numbers we can't do it at this point. After our feature film comes out and hopefully does as well as we think it will, WE WILL revisit this idea. So not dead yet, just resting, eh?
BTW I am at Sundance Film Fest right now. Saw Chispen Glover yesterday. Talked to Leisha Hailey and Katherine Moennig about our movie.

Great. I never figured some of us Browncoats would be so negative about a possible new way to have us some new Firefly, so much so that the whole idea has been squelched. Way to go guys.

Honey, If I could blend up Firefly and find a way to inject it in my veins and cure this gorram itch, I'd do it, but I'd have to go with the naysayers on this one. A big part of the draw was the sex appeal(which would be hard and somewhat awkward to accomplish with anime)not to mention environment and emotional portrayal. I own the graffic novel, and I spent half the time reading it thinking that the way they were drawn was somewhat wooden.
I think I'd be more apt to embrace a new crew(with visitations from our favs, of course) before I'd embrace an anime crew...

Yes, Cybersnark, I know all about hentai....
more than I ever wanted to know...sorry, animated Cinderella and and Prince Charming don't do it for me!
In the immortal words from the Man in Black
"Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood" and I need actual Firefly not the watered-down version...
My hubby died his browncoat black for those that have gone before...

I'm thinking there's a problem with your brain being missing. No one is saying you can't have the "real" version if the animated version is made. It might even help the cause.
Why did you buy the comics? It wasn't live action. If you had known about it beforehand, would you have denounced it as a watered-down version and beg for it not to happen? Poppycock.
Why deny all of the other fans some semblance of Firefly just because you want the original format? And if the original cast were doing the voice acting, and if Joss was doing the writing, I'd bet you'd be tempted to watch an animated show. Hell, even Joss said he'd do Firefly in alternative formats if he could.

Hentai is not a city in Japan is all...
More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!
