I just remembered it today and I can't recall how long ago I dreamed this, but I think it was early this week.

I dreamt that we were getting a Serenity sequel!

In my dream, I was watching TV and saw a trailer for this new movie. The whole premise of the movie was basically Firefly and Serenity from Book's point of view!!

How weird is *that*??

Okay, that's weird.

But I think I can top it.

Last night I dreamed that I saw a TV ad for the DVD release of a movie that I'd made, some sort of offbeat independent comedy called Doncoat. (I kid you not!)

The ad contained about two dozen rave quotes. Yet the movie had tanked when it first came out; about six people ever saw it. I hadn't even known that the reviews existed, let alone that the movie was coming out on DVD. I'd practically forgotten I even made it.

Just for the record, in real life I've never made so much as a Super 8 or camcorder movie. What corner of my subconscious came up with "Doncoat The Movie" I have no clue.

Before the release of the movie, I probably had a dozen dreams about it. One involved Mal and Inara and a plucky orphan riding elephants on some savannah, and another involved the lower decks of Serenity being a vast series of caves.

My favorite one was a scene where Jayne sat down somewhere on the ship, very pensive and reflective, whilst Bob Dylan's "Joey" played in the background. The silhouette of him sitting, grave and contemplative, faded into a shot from space of a sunrise on some planet or moon, with Serenity floating into frame.

That was the only one I thought had a general premise that could work in the movie. The others were just wacky. (Like one involving Serenity being infested with space spiders - or spspiders, if you will.)

OK I can top all of you!
I had a dream set just after the episode 'Jaynestown' where Jayne and I met, got married and he stowed me away on board Serenity.
It was a very trippy, sort of dream. It was even weirder because I thought Simon was more my type.

After seeing Serenity for the first time (when I was still in my “They changed the role of violence in Rivers character!” phase) I had a recurring dream about Summer(Not River) trying to kill me.

But I suffer from night terrors (and Insomnia, I really don’t sleep much), in all honesty it was a welcome brake for waking up convinced im choking to death!

Wow Haze, I think you beat me on the trippy-o-meter. But I empathise with the insomnia it keeps me up a good 20 hours a day

I've had a few Firefly related dreams.

The most recent one happened a couple of nights ago. I sitting at a wooden table (similar to the one in the mess hall on board Serenity). The room actually looked kinda similar to the mess hall too.

I was chatting away to Josh Hartnett and a few other people about the tv show and movie, trying to convince him to watch the show. It was pretty weird..

The next dream involved River and Mal living in a house. River is sitting in the front room in a chair. (Like the one featured on 'Frasier'.) The telephone rings. Mal walks down the stairs and answers it. It's Jubal Early. He's calling to say that he's coming after River. Mal is angry. He tells River to stay in the house. Mal leaves with Jayne, who's wearing a leash. (Like a pitbull.) That's all I can remember, although it was really bizarre.

He he!! Shiny Talent, don't you find it really weird that it's never the people you think you go for that you suddenly find yourself overwhelmingly erotically attracted to in dreams? - I often wake to find my self disgusted and turned on in equal measure ... mean subconscious, damn you!!
