I've dealt with a LOT of actors over the years, and most of them are "Nice", as long as they are "Smoozing the public"... but the cast (and crew) from FF/Serenity are GENUINELY good people.. they don't have to fake it, I've never met a "Whole Cast" that was as "genuinely friendly" as this cast is... they WANT to help.

We're still in Atlanta. After last year, we decided to stay until Tuesday to avoid the check-out crush.



THAT is the truth, the Highways were a total Crush.. traffic was moving along OK on 85 North and South, and 20 West (Dunno about the other routes), but there were a LOT of people sitting on the side of the road, with Police keeping traffic moving very well (Considering) and keeping the "Looky loo's" and "Rubber neckers" moving along.

Be glad you waited, While traffic was moving pretty smooth, it was still a CRUSH of Bumper to bumper vehicles, and scary at times!

bad2verse (from upthread a way):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~snip~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And what's with all the "little school girl with their underwear
showing" costumes? Anime or something, but it seems popular (For
the ones wearing that much clothing ;)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've seen photos of Japanese girls on the street
dressed this way. It's a subculture-y fashion
thing like Goth can be if you just go for the
look. Or like punk used to be, ditto, I suppose.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~another snip~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It has a HUGE female audience, and it's growing BIGGER by the
month, and That's EXACTLY what Hammer of Sci-fi wants to see! I
"Assume" someone has put a copy of "Done the impossible" in her
hands... if they haven't, it needs to be done, cause there are
LOTS of females in it (Prolly more females than males).. seems
someone else did their homework on Hammer also.. GOOD JOB!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You refer to the SereniFly audience? And where
do the figures come from -- someone said this
at Con or what? And female? Hunh! Well, we
spend money, too. Even buy oil and tires and
such (ssh! dirty little female secret!) but maybe
not so much the cheap beer...
So much for the original target demo.

Summer is so gorgeous. Great photos. Thanks
for posting.

And Boomer, the same! Looking forward to more.

9/19 Arrrrh!
9/20 Happy Birthday, Captain Mal!!
9/30 Happy AnniVersary, BDM!!!

Okay, so it turns out this is actually my first time posting on this board even though I've been registered for several months. I just got back from the Con and it was amazing. There were Browncoats EVERYWHERE (if I met any of you there, I was the one with the nametag that said "Buffy" with "yes, this is my real name" because well, it is my real name). This was my first con and I was very impressed with both Alan and Summer. Alan is just hysterically funny, and Summer was funny, too. I was in the con suite when Alan dropped by and read Wash's eulogy. That was just an incredibly nice thing to do for his fans. In the autograph lines (which were insanely long for Alan and Summer--much longer than any other actor's), even after three days of signing, Alan was just as funny and gracious as he was on day one. Overall, I had a fantastic time, and am even more impressed with this fandom.

The panel with them on Sunday was hysterical, as the winner of the eulogy contest asked Alan to sign her copy (he'd read it the night before). Well, those of us who hadn't heard it badgered him into reading it, which he did.........while "editing" it! Yes, he actually wrote notes on it, like adding the line "sexy, sexy, sexy" and such. It was hysterical, and that lady now has an awesome souvenir of D*C.

Now, if I could just meet Cap'n Tightpants, my life would be complete.

There has been some hints on other threads that the suits have only been waiting for the DVD sales to reach a certain level before `greenlighting` this and now that Serenity has won both the Hugo and Nebula awards......



No More "Hints" needed.. I have Allan Tudyk ON TAPE saying that he's checked and there WILL be more movies, and that He and Ron Glass (Book) WILL be in them, But he doesn't know How, Or exactly when (he hopes at least one will be a Pre-quale).. When I get home and get the recording cleaned up I'll post it here... but it sounds like there's going to be MORE than one Movie AT LEAST.

YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST FOLKS!!!!!! FireFlyFans.net!!!!!





I'd sure like to hear that tape, because that it is not what Alan said. Alan said that if there *were* more movies, both Wash and Book would be there. Then there was speculation on how, prequel or what, someone suggested evil twin and so forth. He never and I repeat never said that there would be more movies definitely. Only that if there were, both Book and Wash would be in them. Alan was very low key and hesitant to say there was no news. Sorry to be the burster of bubbles, but that is not what was said.

Yes, he didn't give anything truly positive, and did stress that Joss is working on Wonder Woman for the forseeable future. He did, however, say that they haven't been given a definite "no" to another movie. I would be far more disillusioned if he'd said that the studio had said "absolutely no more".

Everyone thought the 'Verse was dead after the cancellation, and look where we are today.
