Freedom. Or the fight for freedom. Now, I don't have all the answers. If anyone can spell it out, please tell me how it goes. If you're into cool movies, I recommend Easy Rider, Koyaanisqatsi, Fight Club and Barton Fink... I believe there's a search for freedom in all of these movies, but none of them can spell out what freedom truly is. Malcolm Reynolds doesn't want to be a number and he makes decisions accordingly. His crew is loyal to him for the same reason I watch the show: I'm not free but I'll do anything I can to be just that. And if not, I'll go down trying. I haven't been a member of fireflyfans.net for long, but it seems to me that members are too involved with Angel or Buffy and waste too much time evaluating what our favorite line is in Serenity. Pride is a mortal sin, but we should all be proud to have brought Serenity to balance what it cost to what it made. DVD sales will bring in more money to those who have something to say. Our money is going to the right place this time. Joss Whedon is not my master, he is my brother.

I’m trying to decide between what my next fanfic should be about, it will either be about 1. What life is like on the earth that was after the exodus, including plagues, starvation, wars, cults, bandits, establishment of government and order, crazy genetic experiments in hopes of modifying humans as well as livestock so that they can survive in the hostile wasteland, and of course people going insane in the wasteland. There’s also a wonderful period of time on the earth that was right after the exodus which I think I’ll call the Age of Ruin or The Withering or maybe The Putrid Winter. Basically it’s when the earth gets screwed beyond repair. When all those ships blasted off, they blew so much dust, soot, and dirt into the atmosphere that it blocked out the sun, like a nuclear winter, and they expelled so much toxic fume that it permanently poisoned the already unhealthy air. That's not all, the blast off also set just about everything that can burn aflame, forests, remains of large cities, farmland, etc., the fires continued to generate toxic fumes and throw soot into the atmosphere, keeping the earth covered in darkness for months, maybe even a few years. All that leads to mass extinction of plant and animal life so the environment ain't going to be able to heal itself for at least another couple thousand years. 2. Crazy stuff happening during the journey between the earth that was and the new world, people developing loyalties to the societies within the ships which later develops into entirely new nations, possible mutinies, and of course people trying to cure the insanity caused by living in space. 3. The story of how the criminals/workers are terraforming/building the new worlds, most of the workers were criminals, the rest are indentured workers who volunteered so that their families can have a chance to leave the earth that was, they’re considered expendable and lots of people die, their journey to the new earths isn’t nearly as calm as the journey of the others. I’ve joined a group trying to write a virtual season 2 of Firefly. Here’s the link if you’re would like to help:

Yup, I think I do. I didn't know there was such a thing, but apparently there is. You know how I know? When my dog walks into the computer room and he doesn't even look at me when I start the usual... "Out! Come on, out! You know you're not allowed in here. Outside! Go on! GO!" Nothing, nadda... Well, nothing, until... "Go on, GIT!" And then he goes. *sigh*

I didn't want to start a new thread, and I noticed the Serenity squared thingy has a whole mess of replies. Opening threads that long takes forever, so I figured I'd ask here and get quick reply. Or not. Hope so though :smile:
