I wonder how long casting information for a movie can remain spoilery.
Saffron: You won't tell anyone about me breaking down? Mal: I won't. Saffron: Then I won't tell anyone how easily I got your gun out of your holster. Mal: I'll take that as a kindness.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Until there are posters with that cast member and the title of the movie on? I mean, that's fairly extreme, but not as extreme as keeping them secret they way we do plot points or specific lines.

I think we're very used to TV-style spoiler definitions. Because for a movie, that's not considered one -- that sort of stuff is freely discussed in the movie thread every day.
Now, what he's actually doing in the plot, sure. But him actually showing up? NSM.

I think Firefly fans are taking time to adjust to the fact that the next part isn't another TV episode but a movie. The spoiler policy on Firefly is going to differ to other movies accordingly, or at least I suspect it will.

I think I'm gonna bring that up inthread.

It does seem like we ought to discuss it and see what people want the spoiler policy to actually be.

I read through that interview. It doesn't even mention Serenity that I could see.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I read the interview - it doesn't mention Serenity at all. The only possible spoiler is the fact that this man is in the movie.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

This is the issue. Is the fact that he is cast a spoiler? It is being discussed in the other thread. I am just trying to not get anyone ticked off.

I don't want to tick anyone off either. Lots of people are more spoiler-sensitive than I am. Me, I never considered casting spoilery, unless knowing it somehow gave away the plot. What I know about the plot of Serenity now is enough. I guess I'll just use white-font a lot in the other thread!
In a few months, I'll have to stop visiting this thread, just to be safe!
