"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm thinking 1 in a projected series of direct to DVD movies, P-C.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's what I sort of thought, but...of course it's 1. What else it would be? It's the first movie.

Oooooh. Now I get it.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I think that people are leaping to all kinds of crazy conclusions about a comment on LJ and Joss having dinner with Warren. Am I alone in this?

So, typical fandom behavior, then?

What is even happening?

Tamara, I'm with you, too. Joss is working on Wonder Woman. He's also got comics-things going on. He's also got that Goners flick, not to mention, two kids. Why wouldn't he want to find new stories? Serenity was one thing. He was interrupted right in the middle of the FF story, and didn't even get to air all the episodes he'd completed.

There have always been a lot of things people say he's said he's going to do. When Angel bowed, he said it was definitely not the end of the Buffyverse. We've been hearing about Ripper/Watcher for years. A mythical Spike movie. At one time they floated a Faith project, but couldn't get Eliza. There was talk of Angel films or TV movies. There's always Firefly buzz.

I'm not saying none of these will come to pass, but I'd be as surprised to see any of them as I would to see a new Bronze posting board.

And P-C, thanks so much for asking the "1" thing, and Una for lighting the candle, because it went right over my head, too.

The thing about life is :You can rehearse it all you want, But nobody else ever sticks to the script. So why bother?

Joss already posted and denied it. No big surprise there I guess.

Hi boys and odd, smooth, compellingly bumpy non-boys. I'm in Liverpool, on Alexis' lap... sorry, laptop, checking in and seeing all sorts of nonsense about a sequel to something. I did run into someone at Forbidden Planet, and he said something about that I ought to make more things, possibly art things, and I agreed. He didn't know the fellow I was with was Brian Hitch but it was 'cause I'm so, yeah, awesome. Yes, Warren and Natalie and Brian and I had dinner, after nattering on for SFX at the hotel (I like that mag) and it was blazingly fun. They're all three multitalented, urbane, and surprisingly sweet. I'm none of those things but I came the farthest so they had to be nice. BUT...

There's no sequel, no secret project regarding Serenity or somesuch and I'm not even sure how anyone thought there was talk there. I've seen Nathan and Tim (and Summer and Alan) recently because they're my friends because I'm so, yeah, awesome. So let's put that to bed and smother it with a pillow.

Fun fact: Didn't read the thread, but as for James playing Shinzon: that's the reason he left for darkest Africa at the end of season six. We were giving him the time off to do the film. When it didn't happen, the course was already set. But he got a nifty soul and that worked out okay.

Oh, and I heard Marvel pushed back X-Men 18? I've delivered 19, and Johnny's working steadily, so blame the marketplace. In fact, overturn the marketplace, the way Jesus did when he was cranky about that thing that time.

Rolling in Kittens, -j.

Thanks Kessie.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Bwah. Joss is in my neck-o-the-woods. He's a brave man.

The sequel thing came from somebodies LiveJournal (not Warren & chums). Unfortunately, and not entirely surprisingly, they got the wrong end of the stick. I'm not sure how far the rumour did the rounds, but if it was any length it's my fault for mentioning it on Whedonesque.

...Huh, I didn't even realise there was confusion over the "1", I thought I was just joining the crowd. We Eugene Browncoats took on the Portland Browncoats in kickball on Saturday, which we thought was quite a fitting date for a gathering of Browncoats. But it meant we couldn't join the Seattle Browncoats for the Big Damn Anniversary shindig to which they invited us.

Can I use the word Browncoats more times in one paragraph?

(Oh, and Eugene won! go team us!)
