I like Space Monkey's suggestion. Actually, I like all the suggestions.

About Inara, however. At the end of HofG she said she was leaving and in OinS she and Mal are talking about her arrangements to leave ... something about going to a planet who's primary income comes from the sturgeon market -
Mal: so unless you've got the overwhelming urge to gut sturgeon, and who hasn't? ...

So, how are they going to resolve that little dilemna?

I think Inara won't be with them in the beginning but she joins up with them again later in the movie. Maybe she'll show up at the right time in the right place, like she always does, in the nick of time to save Serenity's crew's ass or Mal's ass in particular.

Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.

I'm not sure what the opening scene would be, but I just had a great though.

Wouldn't it be great if the movie does extremely well, and not only comes back to TV, but also gets a ride at Universal Studios? I think that would be awesome.

Also, maybe Universal could buy the rights to the original Firefly pilot, and around a month before the movie's release, start showing it on TV, about once a week? It would create a lot of hype, and could introduce more people to the series.

Well, I'm only speaking from personal experience, but after I delivered my daughter (my first and only) I was able to get up immediately and go have a shower. By the next day I was totally fine although tired. So I would say that butt-kicking is not totally out of the question, although not during nursing! lol

However, I had a midwife and was medication free - no epidural, no meds of any kind. Doctors tend to get in there and gum up the works. Not sure what Simon would do with his 2nd delivery of all time.

I don't care how the movie starts, just as long as it starts. Joss is my god and whatever he decides to do is just fine with me.

Although, I do have some suggestions...and as soon as Joss gives me a call, I'll share them.

I'm picturing a pleasant, Mennonite colony. Happy little workers going about their lives, when enter the Reavers. Much mayhem and killing, although the Reavers still go unseen. Now that they've got our attention, they introduce our heros and tie the whole thing together.

All I hope is that no one tells Joss what to do, or not do with the movie. I trust that he will give us what we want, and sometimes what we don't want. Either way, whatever he does is good, as long as it's all him and no coporate bastards! I mean......ya i mean bastards.

Frankly, I wouldn't dare imagine much of what the movie will be like. That's Joss's territory, and I'm sure I'll like whatever he decides to do with it.

That said, the very first scene should be of Serenity! That's going to be the name of the movie, after all.

I'd personally like to see her fly into a system with two suns, putting to rest weather or not ships in the Firefly universe actually travel between stars. HOW can be left a mystery, if Joss likes. But since some fans believe the Firefly universe is mighty small, and others don't, I'd like to see the answer to this.

Binary systems are quite common, after all.

A Butt-nekid 3-way with Zoe, Inara, and Kaylee would get my interest right up front... oh wait, did I say that out loud?

It should be Mal kicking someone into an engine turbine.
