You know, that's what I love about you guys - you're always there for me. Throwing yourself into the britches breach.

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.
Hey, if you need a point woman on this one, I'm available. (and by "available" I mean...)
Firefly in alternative media (stick-figure Flash animations on a slow website)
I would sit here and watch it load. I am sad and pathetic in this way.

And I would put it on Whedonesque. (But not with the quotes for the username of the author. Honest.)
I wanna talk about fandom. It seems to me that there are different ... call them degrees ... of fandom. There are fans of the show, fans of the actors, fans of the writers, fans of the production (Zoic, costumes, ... whatever).
I think I am a fan of the 'Verse. Which is all about Joss. Make that "Mr. Joss Whedon".
"Sir."
And Tim.
"Sir Tim"
However, this was about degrees of fandom. All my manic behaviors related to Firefly have not gone away, behind Serenity. I have even sent money to some jackhole on the Internet (which was refunded!), on the off chance that it might make more 'Verse.
Joss and Tim might go on to other things. More power to them! The dollars there are shiny!
Here is my degree of fandom, though. I will be hanging out on my nearly-broken ship, with my posse of folks I have elected to call family.
I think the point of Firefly was being a heap of shit ship in rubbish circumstances with no real direction. Like the fandom of the show, as it happens.
Thankfully the Buffy fandom didn't resemble vampire killing. Well, as far as I know.
Like Kevin never staked a vamp.
As if.
Crap. I pour my feeble heart out on the Web and what do I get?
Bupkis.
You timing is bad, Gus. Everyone is out and about. We love your feeble heart, though.
aurelia you make an important point, but you know, I'm worried for Raq. What if she's taken in by a celeb impersonator. Maybe we could run point for her, on this one?
I suppose I could take one for the team.
