Hey, excuse me if this is a stupid question, but what exactly happens in September this year? I know it's two years after Serenity was released, but was there a waiting period or something after Serenity to see if they would make a sequel?

We don't know what is going to happen. That is what we are talking about. What we HOPE will happen.

September 30, 2007 is another anniversary of Serenity's theater release in US.

This is what I remember. All the actors have signed contracts with Universal to make two sequels. One of the actors said that their contracts for the sequel with Universal expire at the end of this year 2007. So Universal has until the contracts expire to make a decision on a sequel. If Universal lets those contracts expire, the contracts would have to be renegotiated. Joss would also be able to shop around to get a sequel made or explore the many other options available to tell stories in the 'verse.

"Hey not to change the subject, but we browncoats need to run over to www.cinescape.com and post on the new star trek movie. alot of people are tired of star trek and want it to go to bed. so i posted that yea we need more firefly. hahaah "

Be Careful. Someone posted a few years ago on The X-Files forum saying the same thing. I remember it well because I was with the show until the bitter end. The poster said we should also put the show to "sleep & start supporting Firelfy/ Serentiy."

If the poster was more sensitive about the post, many of the die hard X-Files fans includig even myself would of support the show sooner. I mean, we all at least had the same feeling for the FOX Network.

I have this "Feeling" that the DVDs are going to be re-released soon in very cool packaging & better advertising.

ALL of the Best Buys, Targets and Walmarts are out of Serentiy & Firefly. And none of the stores can tell me when they are coming back in, but they keep re-ordering them.

You are right. Dvd sales are huge in Hollywood & no one likes to share the information.

Just my guess & I believe it is a good guess

Here's a scenario: make the gorram sequel, and don't release it during a Katrina-like event, where American peeps elect to stay indoors and not contribute to those all-important first weekend movie grosses. Either one is in the path of the hurricane, and thus not given to going out to see a shiny movie, or one is following the news of the hurricane on their home televisions... and not going out to see the movie that weekend.

Bad timing, like the release of the BDM as Katrina devasted the Gulf of Mexico's coastal areas, is just plain bad luck. Since when does a Browncoat back down from a spell of bad luck?

You got it: never.

Really? Cool.

Don't forget

- Summer Glau on the FOX show The Sarah Connor Chronicles (cross your fingers that this one lasts)

- Gina Torres in the Chris Rock movie I Think I Love My Wife (hope this one does well)

- Jewel Staite in Stargate: Atlantis (again?)

and more. Every little bit helps.

AND our Captain in Fox's new show-- Drive.

In my opinion, he show Drive and have Wash scoop him up in to a new Firefly episode.

It's when the original contracts with Universal (to make three movies) expires, or so says Sean Maher (Simon on the show). If they don't do the other movies then, the likelihood of anything else on screen from the 'verse goes down.
