You'll probably find this hard to believe, but I just got major league screwed in this last deal. I'm totally bustin' my ass for these people, and guess what? They have been robbing me blind! I am now not only in the middle of gorram nowhere-I am short of coin in the middle of gorram nowhere! And I am seriously pissed off about it, too! Sparing you the gory details is a kindness, believe me. Right now, I'm just trying to keep my big fat mouth shut about it. Nothin' I can do for a few more weeks. I wish it was as simple as shootin'em, but that'd just be more trouble I don't need at this point. It is definitely time to cut my losses and roll, though. It is in the works, but patience has never been my finest quality. I hate to wait. I also hate being poor. I can put up with a lot for the sake of completing the job, but don't fuck with my money! Seriously, anybody got any spare zen I can borrow?

So back in 2008, Steven Fisher came to me and said "Have you ever thought about doing a Firefly Fan film?" That question has changed the course of my life since then. We did an intense four to six months worth of research from everything to the legal side of thing to the scripts and history of the characters. We reached out to the studios, and Joss Whedon, to let them know what we were up to. We contacted the charities and shared with them our plan and vision for the next two years. We reached out to the fans through social media and they have helped shaped the course of this project from an idea on a napkin in Starbucks to a feature length film that will be released Labor Day weekend 2010. Thanks to Browncoats like you, we've been able to make this a reality and have, so far, raised thousands of dollars for charity and we continue to do that as we go on. What has this whole thing taught me? That Browncoats don't think of "I" but they think in a world of "We". I hope you'll join us as we continue on this journey. Thanks for taking the time to read this far. Let's keep flyin', Mike Dougherty Writer/Director/Producer of "Browncoats: Redemption" website:
