Firefly and Serenity

Flanvention - Firefly/Serenity

Convention

 

Joss Whedon is one of my favorite writer/director. I'm a huge fan of Buffy and Angel and when I heard he was doing a new series called Firefly and it was a space western I had my doubts but it was Joss so I would give it a chance. And I'm so happy that I did because I TOTALLY LOVED THIS SERIES. Fox screwed with the scheduling but I manage to watch all episodes that broadcast before Fox cancelled it only 11 episodes in. I was bummed and so was a lot of other folks that Fox released it on DVD with an extra 3 unaired episodes (which is unheard of) and it sold out, they made more and it sold out again. Firefly was a DVD hit. So much so that Universal leased the property from Fox to make a movie. This movie would be called Serenity and though it did not do well  at the box office it did to well with DVD sales. There have been rumors of another movie and/or TV series but so far nothing has happened, but we have gotten additional novels and comic books. I continue to love Firefly and the verse that Joss created.
