Personally, I am hoping for a low/mid-budget direct-to-DVD-something. I think this is the most realistic outlook at this point. Unfortunately the absolute number of us "Serenifly" fans is still relatively small.

Oh don't we know that Star Wars has had alot more special treatment than Firefly, but what i'm saying is that Joss Wheedon says that it's weird having a story and not being able to share it and i'm saying that i would buy his book if we even had to have the story that way.
With star wars, because they can't make enough movies to keep the fans happy they write the stories. My husband has about 2 book shelves full of starwars.
I'm just saying that i would have the story of firefly anyway i can until it's back on Tv. Even on toilet paper


It seems the best stories always have the rockiest starts, but once they get going whew

I think that is a shiny idea FM. This may be just the kind of push we need to get many of us back into the game and spike the sales enough to grap Universal's attention.

a very fair reply - sorry if i didn't read you right.

i too would get with firefly/serenity in any medium (joss once said he'd do it even it had to be radio - and of course there were some very fine radio ersions of star wars - so what about it then joss??? babylon 5 has audio even.)

as for getting your name wrong - i am really sorry, i'm very poor sighted and make mistakes like that far too often (plus i've been listening to a lot of dylan - so i might have been thinking of Visions of Johanna). did i mention i have a big mouth too?
In any case, my definite bad.
sorry for that,
wytch

I agree. :-)

Just like the WaveCard idea though, Browncoat1, it'll take mass #'s of people doing it. It'll take coordination and a spread of the idea and an acceptance of the idea by those folks opposed to doing much of anything right now. We need EVERYONE to participate. It's what makes the most sense to do frankly, because money is what Uni needs to see. We need NUMBERS of people... new folks buying the DVD's, but in lieu of that all of us banding together to spike sales will be a good alternative.

Someone spearheads it, my BSC and anyone I'm affiliated with is in and will work hard.

Not a problem we all make mistakes, it's the downfall of being human.

but think of the trek fans - the BDM felt a little flat to you?... so now you're in danger of righting off anything new??

and Gorram if the arguments weren't exactly the same as for the BDM!!! What was with Kirk being so obesessive - why was Spock so Cold - and scotty hardly in it - yadda yadda.

They got Wrath of Khan coz they kept going - and it did real well and everybody loved everybody all over again and then they made the Search For Spock and i shot myself.B]

hell no, i don't go around insulting folks!
we need to encourage and recruit - don't mean we have to have the same opinions - but no, i never deliberately insult people - just tactless at times is all.
