An interesting theory about Shepherd Book can be found at this [link]
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.
That's a very cool idea. I'm a doubter (I doubt joss intended that, I doubt there will be any more movies), but still, a kick-ass idea.
Definitely very cool.
Yah, it's cool, but all the soft tissue was burnt to a crisp leaving and entering atmo lashed to Serenity, and then whatever was left would have been pulverised on the bumpy landing. There'd be nothing left to decrypt.
Well, assuming they did in fact strap Book to the ship among the other bodies, instead of just putting him in the hold somewhere. It's a fairly easy assumption to make, but it's easily contradictable if Joss ever does decide to do more with the 'verse and this is on the right track.

Aimee went to the same place I did.
Inara/Reaver script
I keep hearing references to this. Can it be found somewhere?
