Wash was the guy i related most to. sucks he dies in the movie)

Definition of a Browncoat: "a new uber fan of this show. we must rise up all and bring this show back...or let the networks face our nerdy revolution!!"

So I'd say you're a Browncoat.

I give virtual browncoats to Browncoats.. so here is yours...
*hands canadianreserve a browncoat that fits just right*

Welcome home.

We all feel exactly the same way that you do about Firefly and we want it back too, and upon occasion we do some guerilla marketing things and we'd love it if you took part... check out the guerilla marketing forum below General Discussions.

Share the 'Verse with those you love...they'll likely love it too, and that's what we need, more folks asking for more Firefly/Serenity.

Make yourself to home. Someone will be along and offer you strawberries and other goodies.

BringitBack - I remember how I felt when I watched the show. I haven't watched it again because when I like something that much I like to give it a few years before I relive it. I was absolutely amazed by it and under the impression that the chances of making more shows was better than it seems, sadly. Remember how in the beginning you couldn't even trust Jayne? I had never seen anything like that before. Usually Hollywood makes it so obvious who is the "good guys" and who is the "bad guys".... hardly lifelike. Heh... chain of command.

I remember coming to the end of the series and almost dreading the movie. It wasn't as bad as I thought it might be, but I felt in their haste to tell more of the story in such a short time allowed, it didn't have the feel of the show at all and, assuming that Wash and Book are really dead, they pretty much ruined any chance of getting that chemestry back if they ever did resurrect the show.

I'm thinking, either River will wake up on the revived show and the whole movie will be a "Dallas" dream and it all never happened... possibly a premonition of the future?

Or, for reasons that you can find on old threads, Wash never really died and had been rescued by Alliance while the crew was away and River was fighting the Reavers... .and I'm pretty sure that Book is a magician like David Blane and was able to fake his death as a practical joke that he and Jayne pulled on Mal.

Canadian Reserve - A Browncoat is what Mal and Zoey were before the show began. They had flashbacks to that time early in the show. They were the people on the independent planets who fought the Alliance when the Alliance had nothing better to do but expand their power and absorb the outer rim planets under their rule..... sadly, they lost.

Browncoats were very similar to the Confederacy in America and the Civil War, which contrary to popular belief had very little to do with Slavery, but that sounds a lot better in text books than telling a whole bunch of kids that Americans were fighting each other because the Union and their large millitary power threw their weight around and forced people, who were very much like our Browncoats, into submission under their rule.

The term Browncoat has a couple of meanings here at fff.net, I think. Some people I've talked with seem to live their lives like Browncoats. The way they talk, the things they do, the way they carry themselves shows they're Browncoats through and through. Others who use the term more loosely as a term designated to a die hard fan of the show also call themselves Browncoats. Many of them seem very Alliance minded and tend to agree with what the Government says is good for us. Though I don't agree they're Browncoats in the true sense of the word, I do appreciate that they love such a wonderful show as well and call themselves Browncoats. The more of us the better if we're ever going to hope to get another fix.

Cheers, I'm enjoying myself in here

lol..I went to Box Hill TAFE everyday for 2 years studying Public Relations and Marketing. Those were good times.

For fear of turning this into some cheesy flirt post, I may have to stop cos I can feel myself wanting to crap on about myself, boring everyone here.

Hopefully one day all us Melbourne Fans can be sitting in the same cinema watching the return we all hope for. Till then, we will have to just watch the magpies win game after game...

This is a fear of mine as well. This is why I thought losing just one of the two may have been acceptable.

BTW - Wash is up for discussion but I'm pretty sure Book's body was apart of the group used to 'reaver up' the ship. There is no coming back from that.

Aren't we supposed to be able to clone humans in the future? Maybe when the show starts back up the first episode will have a fully healed Wash at the helm again and they'll visit Kamino and find out that part of Books shady past was that he has been cloned tens of thousands of times in preparation for the Anglo-Sino-Clone Wars.

Then they'll just take one and maybe a few copies in case Joss goes on one of his character killing sprees again and we'll have our show back. Shiny!

1) My gut tells me..no sequel
2) He was smoking crack again
3) It is a show about a prostitute, a minister, a mercenary, a psychic, and a crew of thieving stealing bastards... stealing shit. If they don't want to watch that...Slap'em.....

while i enjoyed serenity, if they bring the show back, i think they could do fine just ignoring the movie, in fact depending on how they would license it to another network they would likely have to, as for why they killed shepherd book, well i think they kind of have to kill one of the major characters in a tv to big screen movie, and if there is to be a sequel, well the actor that plays shepherd is already starting to look older, and that makes him the most logical choice.
