Thank you Daniel, and I apologize for making you uncomfortable. No hard feelings, and happy new year to you.
You're welcome, and a Happy New Year to you and yours, too.
Book: Where's the doctor? Not back yet?
Zoe: (beat) We don't make him hurry for the little stuff. He'll be along.
Book: He could hurry... a little.

Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Joss sez:
"The best-case scenario is that the DVD is such a spectacular, monster hit that we get to make another movie," Whedon said. "Then we get to make another movie. After three movies, we're all very tired. After Serenity: Revolutions, we feel like we've played it out. And then we make another series."
Also, some stuff on "no more Firefly," which I think is old news.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
So are the DVD sales in the monster-hit zone of DVD sales? I know they're healthy but are they good enough to lure some nutty Central European or possibly Bahrain princes to invest in a new movie?
Who financed the frickin' Highlander movies anyway?

I'm having horrible Highlander II flashbacks...
But hearing that Joss is not done with the 'verse bouys me.
FWIW, Serenity and Firefly are #2 & #3 at Amazon. (behind Wedding Crashers? please.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hey, Wedding Crashers was much fun.

Have to confess to not having seen Wedding Crashers. I bet it is fun.
ION, Nathan gets a pet from DC's newest tabloid, The Examiner in their Top 10 Overlooked Performances of 2005.
9. Nathan Fillion, "Serenity." Like Harrison Ford did three decades ago, Fillion plays a bemused, roll-with-the-punches spaceship captain. There aren't awards for such performances, but they help remind us that sci-fi and action movies can actually be good.
I'd be more excited if the list didn't also include the penguins in Madagascar.
But hey, to come full circle, it cites Vince Vaughn in the Wedding Crashers at #5.
