What you are talking about is theft. Many have made that point.

And FOX does not own the rights to Firefly. 20th Century Fox owns the rights to produce, but FOX gave up the rights when they cancelled it and Joss asked for them back, which is how he was able to shop it around and have the movie made. Now Universal has the rights to make movies, and it won't go back to the small screen for as long as they have those rights. Unless, perhaps, they decide to make it a Sci-Fi series, since Universal owns Sci-Fi, but I'm not sure they can do that, either.
I would love to see a miniseries on HBO, or Sci-Fi channel. I would love to see Serenity 2. I would love to see the Big Damn Heroes on the screen again. The ONLY WAY that will happen is with enough sales. Serenity Special Edition is coming out this summer. We will all buy it. We will give away our old copies of the movie to spread the signal. We will buy more copies as gifts. It will be shiny.

Does it hurt to be so puritanical? I'd imagine
the stick to be quite painful. We are talking
about a show where the protagonists are basicly
pirates and you take the high ground when I
mention copying the DVDs as a method to induce
others to purchase them? You could cut that
irony with a knife.

Arguments aside the Sci-Fi channel is exactly the
target we should be looking at. They have proven
their willingness to support good shows for the
long haul (SG-1), I am only confused as to why
they didn't pick it up in the first place when
FOX released the rights. I just doesn't make
sense, purhaps they could not afford it at the
time. In any case bringing Firefly back to TV
would mean a huge influx of cash for the network,
in turn allowing them to produce even more
excellent television. Smart moves all around,
just wish there was a better way to get the execs
to see the light.

We should have 80 episodes to choose from, not 14
It is a truly sad thing.

Urgh morons make my head hurt...

Cache - Try buying many copies of the series and sending it to all your friends(oops you dont have any coz you stole their stuff and sold it). That is how the original browncoats got the movie made and many of us still do this.

Browncoats bought 250,000 copies in like 2-3 weeks and Universal went "OMFG f*x seriously sux if they let these numbers slip through their fingers" and went and made the BDM.

Kane - I think I like you less than cache...and I know thats a stretch. See my above comments about buying the DVD's. What I hear from you is "im a thief and I download torrents and distribute them illegally for a profit because I dont have any education and therefore cant get a job". Maybe if all you thieves that have the pirate HD version went and got jobs so you could buy the orig HD copy Universal might notice the huge sales and contemplate a sequel.

Urghh...my head hurts....

Seconded!


Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

livebrown,
"Maybe if all you thieves that have the pirate HD version went and got jobs so you could buy the orig HD copy Universal might notice the huge sales and contemplate a sequel."

Maybe many of the people that first see FF on a bootleg end up liking it and go out and by the series(instead of downloading 12G of files).

Cache,

but we have had an effect, however you found Serenity and or Firefly it is either as a direct or indirect result of browncoats actions. In the end no matter how wrong you and Kaneman think we are for using the avenues we have, the point is you Have heard of Firefly.

Also please keep in mind when you are stealing and copying the shows, you are hurting the branch of fox that RELEASED Firefly to us, it is a seperate entity from the Fox that cancelled us.



Browncoats are the shiniest folks in the 'verse

I think nearly everybody does use torrents but I myself will use a torrent only to get a few appications or maybe even the odd Lost episode since I don't have cable,Sky, or any digital channels at home but I could never download movies & then distribute them to friends and family let alone even download movies and I would never ever in a million years do it with Firefly or Serenity.

Our universe is cool but Joss's verse is cooler.
