"Drive" was on Fox. Not by Joss, but it did have the Hero.
......I brought the Grenades.

Am I being hopelessly optimistic, looking for secret hidden messages?
At the end of the original The Thing, one of the characters (a journalist) calls in his story to his publisher about the alien, life and death struggle that just happened, and at the end he warns ominously, "Keep watching the skies..." It kind of got to be a scifi slogan for a while.
That's where it comes from... what he meant by that... dunno.

Hmm. Thanks for the explanation, pizmobeach. I didn't know that. I love trivia! Puts a different spin on his quote, though. More to ponder... *walks away scratching head, deep in thought*
I'd rather be a smartass than a dumbass...

A similar tag "Watch The Skys" was at the end of the original theatrical run of "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", at the end of the credits.
I'd given some thought to movin' off the edge -- not an ideal location -- thinkin' a place in the middle.

"Hi guys. What's going on?
That part cracked me up! By itself, and because it reminded me of Buffy playing dumb when she coming out of The Magic Box in "The Gift", knowing full well what was going on in the alley.

for Joss

Actually I thought it sounds more like Henrik Ibsen's The Doll House meets Fantasy Island
but we shall see! I'm guessing that Joss is using any and all of the above as inspirations on this one!
I think it is going to be wicked cool.

Hello everyone!
MacBaker I hear what you’re saying but I don’t think you get all the meaning of what I was saying. First of all not having seen Buffy or Angel isn’t something I feel sad about. People that haven’t seen Firefly or Serenity I don’t feel sad for it’s just if they have seen the show then we have something in common that’s all. Secondly, think I said something like I haven’t seen them yet, or that I will see them in the future sometime.
Now I do believe I can be a fan of chocolate cake without being a fan of chocolate donuts, especially if I’ve never had a chocolate donut ( not true of course). Being fan of Joss Whedon by only having seen FF/Serenity and not Buffy or Angel seems to follow.
Next, I don’t view Universal as being the next home of FF. To me Serenity was a whole other animal. I would love for them to make a sequel, and a sequel to the sequel. But I wouldn’t call them a home for FF.
Talking ticket sales for the box office in 05 wasn’t a big success but now that the movie has come out on dvd ( and a BDCE) I think our numbers have increased considerably and are getting bigger all the time. Strait to dvd I’m all for and I’m not against Joss doing what he needs to do to keep his creative talents going. He has every right to do whatever he wants even if it means he’s done with FF/Serenity. I hope not but he has that right no matter what I or anyone else feels. I just think I have the right to be disappointed, just a little bit. But it isn’t something I see as gloom and doom, just an expressed opinion. I still have high hopes of seeing our BDHs on the screen together. Whether the small screen or the big one.
