I agree with Alan. I believe Serenity 2 will happen someday!
Hope for more Firefly/Serenity rests with the Serenity Collector's Edition DVD (Release date: 8/21/2007) See http://www.ropeofsilicon.com/news.php?id=6846
Joss Whedon interview at Comic Con 2007
And the cast commentary is very shiny!

Not so sure.
I suspect that the main reason Joss killed off Book and Wash was to reduce the number of principal characters he would have to find roles for in Serenity 2 & 3. Having nine "stars" is fine for a TV show - but a headache for a movie trilogy.
In a TV show, maybe Jayne only gets one or two decent lines this episode, but, hey, next time its "Jaynestown" and he gets to carry the whole thing. There's plenty of time in a season for each character to have a couple of episodes in which they have a vital role. That's not so easy in a 2-hour movie that has to tell a single story.
You can see the problem in some of the Next Gen Star Trek movies, with some characters apparently just along for the ride. (Original Trek was less of a problem as Kirk/Spock/McCoy were always more developed than the rest).

I agree that Book will be dead in another Serenity, but how come you guys won't let Wash's twin brother come on board? Maybe the twin won't get along with Zoe (that would get creepy), but has the hots for River, Inara, YoSaffBridg? If Wash's Brother is good at flying also, and he bags Inara, Mal could get on with YoSaff, and skip the special Hell now that Book isn't around.
