Pulled from near obscurity by it's creator, Joss Whedon, his cast and crew, and, most importantly, the fans, Serenity was made ready for flight once again in a movie of the same name. Despite the odds and the obstacles, Firefly fans (known as 'browncoats') showed Hollywood "just what kind of people we are". Released last year, 'Serenity' succeeded at the impossible. As Capt. Mal Reynolds would say, "...that makes us mighty". It has emboldened this growing group of devotees to fight for the renewal of this saga in some form. Like Star Wars fans, and Anakin himself: WE WANT MORE. There are many questions that remain unanswered about the greedy Alliance, the cannibalistic Reavers, the valiant Browncoats, as well as Mal and his crew...and we deserve to know those answers and so do you.
We know it's a long shot, we know it's not likely, but like the nerve cluster in Mal's back, we just don't feel the pain anymore - we fight on. By way of Darth Vicomte's inspired blog, we are encouraging you to purchase Serenity today, June 23rd, to show your support for this highly entertaining and action-oriented adventure. Obviously, we love it, but we believe you will too. With a spike in sales and interest, we hope this little bright bug will catch the eye of the right folks and swing 'em our way. It's just a hope. I know it's not much, but maybe it'll be enough.
Finally, we're holding ground here with Mal, using all the weapons at our disposal - letters, dollars, and blogs. We were left stranded once already, but we have A NEW HOPE that this time our angels are on their way - with your help, they will be.
Thank you.
