Firefly/Serenity is the BEST Sci-fi EVER in my opinion. I sincerely wish they’d continue in some manner. I have all the comic books, the RPG, etc. and would dearly love for this as a straight-to-DVD movie or episodic continuation.

It’s a crying shame this candle flickered before catching full flame.

I’m so bummed that good shows like this and enterprise always seem to get the axe in favor of reality crap. Keep the faith fans! Keep blogging keep writing keep telling your friends to watch the DVDs!

I have been a fan since the big dummies cancled firefly…I wrote letters, e-mailed, and petitioned – the whole shebang. Then came Serenity and the fleeting moments of well written film once again inspired me with hope. Joss kept the torch burning and the actors all appeared to have their fingers crossed which, felt nice to be supported as a fan. Now – not even Joss seems interested in bringing back the best TV/movie in more years than we should have to count. Shame on the networks & studios that sit on their collective butts with reality trash and boring, predictable, and recently recycled crap that doesn’t even come close to creating characters or developing stories. If Joss doesn’t care, why should we fans? It is truly a sad day when I can watch the celulite on Kim Kardashians butt jiggle but can’t find a decent piece of sci fi on 250 channels. Thanks fans for keeping the lives of these 9 characters and Firefly alife…maybe we should resign ourself to Kims fatty cheeks and call it over…

Serenity is the best movie I have ever seen, the only other one I have rated 10 is Star Trek Nemesis. The only reason I did not see Serenity at the Movie Theater was because I never saw it Advertised.

You might dismiss it as non-canon, but Joss doesn’t. In firefly they sure smuggle cows but they also do save people as well. People did die in Serenity but how could you know what would happen in the series if it wasn’t cancelled? And I happen to recall people did die in the series (not the main protagonists, but then again how would they have the series if they died?).

“if you liked firefly you should watch serenity. It is based on the firefly mythos…”

Sorry, but you are so wrong. I have not got the time to relay every reason, but the tone change between firely and serenity was HUGE.
Serenity they SAVE THE GALAXY and people die in huge space battles. Firefly they smuggle cows and tiny china dolls for the blck market.

Firefly was superior, and yet I still enjoy serenity. I just personally dismiss it as non-canon, for reason to long to list.

For those of you who are not sure – Firefly is, without a singke doubt in my mind, the greatest television show ever made. Serenity was good, but firefly was unique and perfect, BECAUSE it got cancelled, and every moment takes on a gretaer importence.

You guys, maybe its up to the fans. Maybe we should write our own sequel scripts and cobble together something we can all live with. I taped (yes taped, on VHS), one episode or two of Firefly. I need to see the whole thing still, and I caught Serenity for about half an hour. I’m prepared to watch the entire thing now.

I’m keepin the faith, folks. Serenity & Firefly simply kick too much ass to fade away. It will happen if we all believe.

One of the recent quotes I heard from Joss that sums it up nicely is that “no one who owns a studio has been asking me to make another Firefly movie”

Seems all the talk is the fans. Usually that much devotion gets the studios thinking, but no one seems to want to take the chance no matter how rabid its fanbase is.

Its fans were just as rabid and wanting more Firefly after the show was cancelled and they put it in theaters. Then not enough people went.

I am a Browncoat, and I love me some Firefly… but even I can see the light.
