Hi Kelso,
I just sent off an e-mail to the DragonCon website asking that same question. I told them if they could get even one actor from the series, they would have tons of fans traveling from all over to attend. I live in Atlanta and attend DragonCon every year faithfully. If the Firefly movie begins filming soon it could be in production or even done by the time Sept. gets here. I just know there will be a huge Firefly presence this year and if Nathan and any of the gang attended it would be awesome.
So write to DragonCon if you get a chance and encourage everybody you know to do the same. That's what I'm doing... and we'll keep our fingers crossed!

I am currently working on getting a bunch of things done for a Firefly convention in association with Dreamcon in Jacksonville. Keeping my fingers crossed here as well, they are talking about getting a bunch of Firefly actors as guests.
Lori, I am in Jacksonville. Chili's has sent me to manage Alexandria La., Jacksonville Beach Fl, Mandarin Fl, St. Augustine Fl, Tuscaloosa Al, and now back to Jacksonville for Orange Park Fl Chili's so there is a brief synopsis of the last 5 years. I'll email you soon. Great to hear from you again ***Hugs***

Also... I can kill you with my brain...

Whoa, it really is a small world. I used to live in Jacksonville. I love that place...now I live in Tucson...two words: environmental shock.

I've never been to one of these conventions. They just aren't advertised so if they are in town, I never hear about them until it's in the past tense in the paper or on the news...always great fun for me. So, how does one go about finding these conventions?

Not long now. Can't wait to see 4 Firefly guests in one place at one time. I've got a feeling once the movie is out and all, it will be a long while before we get that many together again over here in the UK.

Oh, and if you want something to read, please read first part of my fanfic Dire Straights, part 1 of 3. Part two is done, ready for posting once edited, working on part 3. Cheers.

Some Bad News and Some Good News regarding the guests at Fusion....

Sean (the organiser) made the following post last night on the Starfury Yahoo group:

I have just been informed about the cancelation of three guests for
STARFURY: FUSION.

Gina Torres is needed for costume fittings and make up tests for
FIREFLY: SERENITY, and has had to cancel her appearance.

Morena Baccarin has just been cast in a film.

Nicole Bilderback has been cast in the TV series THE FIRM.

All 3 have agreed in principle to attend a STARFURY event in the
future, and hopefully announcements will be made soon.

All guest appearances are subject to work commitments that my result
in guest cancelations without prior notice.

Thanks to help from ME, we already have one replacement guest.

Summer Glau, who portrayed River Tamm in FIREFLY, and also the
ballerina in the classic ANGEL episode WAITING IN THE WINGS has ageed
to make her first ever conventon appearance at FUSION.

============

Before ya all start hoping for another FF guest, he also posted this today:

Subject: Fusion Guest Update

OK, I've just secured the second replcement guest. We're tying up the
lose ends, but hopefully I'll be able to announce tomorrow evening.

This is a major, major actor. Infact I'm kinda amazed that he's
agreed to attend.

He's never been in BUFFY, ANGEL or FIREFLY. Never worked with Joss
Whedon.

He is however, probably the biggest name guest to ever attend a
STARFURY event, and I'm still in slight shock that he's agreed to
attend. He's such a big name that he'll join Nick and Emma as one of
the headline guests.

If I had to name the top 5 all time Sci-Fi actors, he'd definately be
one of them. He's been in what's accepted as one of the greatest Sci
Fi films ever made, and also in unquestionable one of the greatest
ever Sci-Fi TV series.

I don't get excited very often. I'm excited!

Sean

Should be interesting to see who it is!!!

Hel :)

Fusion 2 thou and 4,
ya know it makes a load of Shiny Sense!!!

My guess is Morena's going w/ Gina for costume fittings for Serenity.

Bad news for the con, but good news for Firefly fans. It means production is moving ahead for the BDM.

A pity we won't see Gina, she was on 24 for about three seconds (UK cable) the other day, she's so great even in that role. But still it will be fun to see other browncoats around at Fusion and maybe share a beer. Even at the Norbreck (ladies with lovely silk dresses may wish to avoid sitting on the ballroom floor it was sticky).
