  1. The unofficial site is also well worth a look... by Hortensia+Patel · · Score: 5, Informative

    Point yer browsin' gear here for news and discussion, including recent blogs by Nathan ("Mal") and Jewel ("Kaylee") from the set.

    And by dint of shameless grovelling the webmaster has just wangled himself a part as an extra on the movie! Kudos.

  2. Re:Is this "just" the first episode, remade? by Scrameustache · · Score: 5, Informative

    No, it takes place about 6 months after "Objects in Space".

  3. No tv series for a while... by Mechanized+Elf · · Score: 5, Informative
    Posts by Nathan Fillion on one of the fansites indicated that the movie deal with Paramount was exclusive--i.e. that there would be no TV series until the film franchise has run its course. Assuming the deal is a standard 3-film option, we can assume that Firefly is reserved for the big screen for at least the next few years. Kind of a shame since the prolific Joss Whedon really shines in serial format.

    Maybe the answer is an entirely new distribution channel like Mark Cuban's HDNet. Whedon should not be burdened with product placements and FOX-style scorecarding.
