So long, Firefly

1. FIREFLY LIVES.. MAYBE..

   Yeah, I read that too.. wanna see what Joss Whedon himself said when he read it?

   From whedonesque.com:

   “All right, now I have to jump in and set the record straight. EW is a fine rag, but they do take things out of context. Obviously when I said I had ‘closure’, what I meant was “I hate Serenity, I hated Firefly, I think my fans are stupid and Nathan Fillion smells like turnips.” But EW’s always got to put some weird negative spin on it. But so we’re clear once and for all: If you read a quote saying “I’d love to do more in this ‘verse with these actors in any medium” all I’m saying is that Nathan has a turnipy odor. It’s not his fault, he doesn’t eat a lot of them but everyone else in the cast noticed it and tht’s not really something I’m prepared to deal with any more. And Jewel said outright she wouldn’t do scenes with him except stuff like the SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER funeral scene which was outside in a high SPOILER wind. So if I do manage to find another incarnation for my beloved creation, it will have been totally against my will.

   I hope that clears everything up. Oh, and when I say I want to do a Spike movie, it means I have a bunion on my toe.

   -joss (by which I mean Tim)

   (no, actually me.)”

   It seems Joss is saying (by using dripping sarcasm) that he has said all over the place that he wants to do something with this universe in the future, and that EW has taken a single comment about closure and decided that it circumvents all other ideas.

   So, if the DVD sells like mad, there’s still hope. And if not, I have one of the greatest Scifi romps I’ve seen in years.

   LONG LIVE SERENITY!
