Serenity/Firefly is down on the list, perhaps appropriately considering the question. If you're interested, here's the link: http://www.imdb.com/poll

Here is the question:
From this list of "Franchises J.J. Abrams Should Reboot," which one would you most like to see get the Abrams treatment?


Here are the answers:
Serenity/"Firefly"
Back to the Future
Speed
"Wonder Woman"
True Lies
Superman
Star Wars
I'm not one to support franchise rebooting.


And here's the current tally:


I'm not one to support franchise rebooting.
1762 (35.6%)
Superman
753 (15.2%)
Back to the Future
629 (12.7%)
Serenity/"Firefly"
596 (12.1%)
"Wonder Woman"
465 (9.4%)
Star Wars
335 (6.8%)
Speed
226 (4.6%)
True Lies
178 (3.6%)

I don't want J.J. anywhere near Serenity.

The new Star Trek sucked.

I liked the new Star Trek, but I still wouldn't want to see a reboot of the 'verse. Sequels, prequels, etc, yes. Reboot, no.

I agree with you on the first point only, EC, but here's my rationale for even posting the poll: no one from a studio is really going to follow the wishes of an IMDb poll, but it can't hurt to show publically yet again that there's still interest in Firefly/Serenity. I wouldn't want J.J. Abrams to mess up Serenity, but I also don't like seeing the 'verse come in behind Back to the Future or Superman in a poll... =\

Oh well, vote or don't as you see fit though! You're right though, Serenity didn't die slowly like Star Trek did--it was killed prematurely. Maybe revisited is a better word for what we want than rebooted?

There are only two persons I would trust with a revival of Firefly. Either Joss or Tim Minear. Everyone else, keep your gorram hands off Firefly!

While I agree re: who should do FIREFLY, on some level, this poll will be used as a popularity contest, so it never hurts to vote for Firefly/Serenity.

Thanks Gwek, that's what I was trying to say but you expressed it much more clearly. :) That's how I view most polls anyway... (I'm more of a cynic than I let on)
