Hey Trask

Summer has just been announced as a guest for the White Room, a Starfury convention in London at the end of Oct/beginning of November. I don't know how many more guests there will be announced for that, but if there was another FF one then it could be Adam since he now officially has links with Angel and the White Room.

Apparently Summer had so much fun she wanted to come back for Hyperion, another Angel event run by Starfury which is in five weeks' time but she's filming the big damn movie.

Well my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

Some indications that a movie trilogy might be more likely than a TV series:

* A couple of people, on this thread and others, have noted that Chris Buchanan said the movie was a springboard for a future TV series. I don't know if this is the original source of the quote, but if you go to www.serenitymovie.net, and check the Feb. 11 entry in the news archive, you'll see that the quote is actually attributed to an anonymous "insider source", one who is probably less in the know and less careful about his words than CB. Perhaps, as others have suggested, the movie was rewritten to springboard a *film* series?

* During the last fourth or so of Tim Minear's April 7 interview at www.thesuccubusclub.com, Minear says he'd love to be involved in a film sequel to Serenity, but doesn't say anything about a future TV show.

It's also worth noting that a successful movie does *not* necessarily translate into a highly-rated TV show. I don't have any real statistics to back this up, but my feeling is that there's a much higher correlation between a successful movie and a successful sequel. I'd hate to see "Firefly" return to TV only to get canceled again, mid-plot, whereas each film tells or should tell a self-contained story, which is one reason why I'm more in favor of a film series. To put it simply, I don't have any faith that television executives would support the show or know how to promote it.

He said Pneumatic Princess - I asked the question and had a similar argument with my friend so I asked Nathan in the autograph queue and he confirmed that it was Pneumatic Princess with a glint in his eye.
So hope that clears that up.
Cheers all, great con - loved the Firefly crew, was already a fan but am now and uber fan!

I think he said Nomadic Princess. The sound system was pretty poor.

Edit - wrong person listed for the quote! (computers hate me)

It's just not right and it's just not fair.

I'm jealous, jealous, jealous, but thank you so much to everyone who shared their notes and memories. It's the next best thing to being there.

Hi Delia, I can recreate the feeling of being there if you like:

OK, you have Nathan doing a question & answer session in the main hall that you really want to sit though, but your raffle ticket thingy has also been called for an autograph with Clare Kramer, and it's the last call for that day. On top of that, the £10 ticket you bought for a picture with Summer Glau has also just been called. You only went to the convention because of Firefly, but think that season 5 of Buffy was pretty cool. Pop quiz hot shot, what do you do. WHAT DO YOU DO! :)

[the correct answer is to go for your picture with Summer, cos she's lovely ]

Suppose I should clarify... Mid-Atlantic!! I can't make it down to Florida this summer. But be sure to report every word she says. In fact, record them and upload to the inet (like was done at the LA con).

Keep flying
