I was on the way home today and was trying to come up with what the premise of a sequel could be.
The first idea that popped in my head was "The Revenge of Atherton Wing"
I mean, the guy has means and motive and drive, and since he probably would have to kill Mal to try to regain his honor, I could see him taking this to epic heights. I'm sure he could find some Alliance people who would be more than happy to assist... So,he kidnaps Inara to bait Mal. I mean, it's not exactly taking on a corrupt system, but it's got teeth- and it could be done from the perspective of a few years down the road, which is where we are. I 've only read 2 fanfics so I appologize if it's been said.
So what other ideas have we?

I'd be far, far more interested in "The Revenge of Jubal Early", "The Vengance of Niska" or "The Undressing of YoSaffBridge".

There's plenty o' room for all that in Serenity 3, hon.
And if not maybe Ath can team up with 'em...

Atherton wasn't a very interesting character IMO. Saffron all the way. Especially with how high Christina Hendrick's stock is soaring these days.
It would have a whole doublecross, triplecross, etc. thing going. Maybe like a Ocean's Eleven set in space. Except with 7...and Mal's instead of Ocean's.

Exactly. Lots of potential there.
Atherton is just a rich douche. Not as interesting. Though I love me some Shindig, he's the weakest element.

Ha, If Atherton had a D-cup I'm sure he would've grown on ya'll...
I don't think a Jubal movie would make it, we've already had a scary black man movie, and I don't think we wanna turn FF into the living embodiement of "black vs. white".

Wait- didn't we have an eppisode like that... Oh yeah- I think it was called "Trash"!
Also, Saff would be in jail on Bellarophon, and even if she could talk her way out of max security-not that I'm saying she couldn't- I gotta think she'd think twice about messin' with Mal and Crew. She's devious allright, but most gals aren't extremely proficient in the revenge business...

Do you mind if I ask why you're so rudely shooting down everything anyone says, just because they (rightly) think that Saffron is a more interesting villain than some guy who got lucky with Inara and can use a sword but not his brain?
Facts are stubborn things.

Apparently, this isn't for what people want to see in Serenity 2, but an Atherton Wing appreciation thread....

No, LiLi-Only if you mind me "asking" why everything you post sounds snarky....
I'm more than willing to change my mind if someone would give logical reason as to why I should. I am also not opposed to a Niska revisit but I am exploring the less reviewed options here, ones that don't involve boobage as an inspiration...
