So with Avengers seemingly breaking all records and making executives very happy and heavy in the wallet, surely this is now the best chance there is for Joss to revive Firefly; and/or produce a SERENITY sequel, no ?

Omigosh I hope so.

But I guess it'll be okay either way.

I hope so, but think Marvel and Disney may keep him bizzy for awhile.

The only way it ever happens is if Joss makes enough money with his deal for the next Avengers movie to fund it himself like with Dr. Horrible.

Well, give the guy five minutes to take a nap and a shower....
But yeah, I'm keeping my fingers and toes and whatever I can- crossed...

Great thread !

So Joss showing the world that he is a bankable writer and director! We, Browncoats already knew that, didn’t we!

I totally agree with you on this THESOMNAMBULIST. With Nathan, Adam, Morena, Jewel, Christina, Mark, Alan and so many FF alums making good for themselves, I say Joss should strike, “while the iron is hot” ! Just a figure of speech of course, but folks know what I mean!

Anyway, I don’t mean at this very moment, but people now are seeing what we have known all along. I’m saying this and I haven’t even seen the movie yet. I know it’s great though, I’ve already heard through channels.

I’ve love to see me some more Firefly, tv, movies, or mini-series. Don’t make much matter!

Anyway, I’m glad that you posted this thread. I was thinking the same thing!

Well I only just learnt that Disney are involved with the Avengers. That opens up a lot of doors. It's allowed Tim Burton to make a number of personal projects from Nightmare Before Christmas to Frankenweenie. So there's no reason why they wouldn't oblige Joss with a few personal key projects too. Firefly among them...

I'm not sure on the legal side of things as regards rights, but could Disney maybe buy Firefly from Fox...?

This would also allow a tie-in with Disney/Pixar on maybe an animated adventure. Perhaps In the style of the Clone Wars. Joss could encourage Pixar to move towards a more mature style for a change and really embellish the whole Firefly Universe... Maybe focusing on the War... Or some other narrative from the verse. Point being there's scope for further ideas... and Pixar are going to have to venture beyond the buddy, buddy animated films if they hope to prevail within the 3d animated market. A more adult orientated animated tv show would allow them this.

However really. It's about Firefly the TV show. If Disney buy the rights and Joss is happy to work with them...

If ever there was a time then Yes, but I personally won't expect it from Joss or the actors, and I won't feel upset if it doesn't happen. Lives and careers change, what's important to fans is not the same as what's important to them (no matter what they say when someone interviews them). I feel like they gave us their all twice, 3 times is a bit much to expect, even selfish. But it doesn't have to be them- if Joss simply co-produced in association with a studio some spin off I'd be thrilled.

Cabin in the Woods might be the poison pill in all this. Avengers showed that Joss can be a success with a blockbuster, but Cabin in the Woods showed that his personal quirky creations don't really do much at the box office. Who knows how studio execs think? If it were me that would tell me not to just fund any old thing Joss wants to do.

Are you the self-appointed discordian for this site?
Do you have people that live with/near you and have you ever driven them to suicide??
Are you really that dedicated to playing devil's advocate?
Are you now or have you ever been a Fox exec?
Are you Joss's arch-nemisis?
Are you desperate for attention?
Dear Buddha, what is your problem?
I'm all for dissenting opinions, but not ON EVERYTHING!!!

TRY THE PROZAC, it's delicious!!!
