Never mind. It was in the main Firefly thread already.

Oooh. Hey. Soon there will be Firefly spoilers again!

I originally posted this bit of news in the wrong thread. I really should learn how to read one these days. I came across this link yesterday at the OB - Casting Sheet for the Movie. All sorts of goodies. All sorts of spoilery. Possibly legit.
Also, in case someone hasn't heard this already, apparently they're going to be filming a good chunk of the movie in NYC and upstate NY.
I would like to take a moment to t bounce about having had a reason to unsubscribe to this thread.
Off to the land of unspoiled for the (Big Damn) movie.
I've given in. I'm doing spoilers all the way for this.
Vince, I have no way of knowing whether that's legit or not; it looks good, though. If it is legit, I'm guessing that what Empire Online described as "a pair of passengers who bring trouble to the crew" are the Mingo and Fanty characters; though I could be wrong. My first thought when I read the EO article was "Simon and River" but "You're not going to bring people into a movie if you're explaining all the time what happened before," makes it sound like Joss wants to start with the Tams there. And it would be very classic Firefly for the passengers to be trouble.
Is it just me, or do the names "Mingo and Fanty" sound like they should belong to a pair of over-pampered Shih-Tzus?
Snerk. I've been trying to work out where they're from-- they sound like something I've heard before, with perhaps a few consonants rearranged. Fingo and Manty? Fango and Minty?
Does anyone know WHERE in upstate NY?
Am-Chau, I've got someone who might be available to find out if it's the genuine article. It'll be a couple of days or so before I get the 'goods' though. The upstate NY deal is anyone's guess at the moment.
