Around the middle of the climax of Serenity I came to the realization that Whedon seemed to be done. The ending, the closing shots, all of it seemed like a fond farewell, a goodbye done right unlike some other properties of his. I loved Firefly and Serenity. But I've never seen anything that suggested to me that Whedon HIMSELF wants more to do with the universe. Maybe he's done, and that's all there is to it. I for one would rather writers and directors hang up their franchises and leave them be unless they have a great idea that they can do justice to.

I just finaly got to see Serenity not too long ago and I loved it. Wish I saw it sooner, but just been so many movies I'm having to catch up on over the past year or so. It has just about everthing I wanted it to be and infact is now one of my top 10 fav films. It reminded me alot of Cowboy Bebop, which I'm a huge fan of. If this is true then it just really sucks we wont see anymore of this series. I hope maybe something can happen to change this in the near future. Some kind of cult fan uprising maybe. I know one thing, I'm finaly gonna go buy the damn DVD like I've been meaning to. Long live Firefly/Serenity!!! :D Man this really sucks.

Movie was good, but I think the TV series was better in many ways. It does not suprise me to hear that Whedon is not doing a sequel because the film felt rushed to me. Almost as if he was trying to cram what he didn't get to finish in the series into the 2 hour film. I bought the TV series boxed set, but I rented to movie and that was pretty much all I needed to see of it. Good, but not great. The prequel comment is interesting though. I just don't know where he'd take that honestly unless you go way back to the war. I loved the TV Series and so I was excited to see the movie.

He can't keep it open in the long run and not profit. Eventually, the theatre will not have enough money to stay long term. I think the real jerks are the people who expect him to keep it open even if he will lose money. They have a feeling of entitlement that they don't deserve.

I just laughed a little to myself when I saw you had said that since you were the one to post about the sequel to Bloodrayne. You even said you were looking forward to the "sexy people biting each other with a cowboy hat tossed in for fun." I still can't tell if you were kidding when you said that, because Boll releasing anything shouldn't be a happy occasion. Are you one of those people that can find good in anything? On the offtopic question of Boll, how is he still getting money to pay for these movies? I thought they closed the loophole. (I apologize if my spelling was off above.)
