Big damn delay

From AICN: Firefly movie moves to September.

*howls!*

Oh well, on the bright side, with Dr Who in the first half of 2005, at least that's something to look forward to at the back end of the year.

They really are out to get us, aren't they?

You said it.

It's starting to look that way.

Starting? STARTING?

Gorram....

aaargh, indeed

I saw the news yesterday on a Buffy board I belong to; there was much wailing & gnashing of teeth.

The (cautiously) optimistic view, however, is that according to what Joss said here, it's not because the studio is abandoning the movie. I hope that's true.

I'm going with that cautiously optimistic view. Still, looks like I'm going to have to make my own fun over the summer.

We certainly pick 'em.

Yeah, it's a wretched bloody bollocks. I hope this doesn't mean worse to come.

Is it possible that we the Browncoats as a whole are being punished for evils we've committed in past lives/while in altered states/in parallel dimensions? Because surely our luck has been sucking much more than could be explained by random chance.

It does make my cheerful visions of multiple films seem more and more unlikely.

When it does arrive, would you be up for viewing with a bunch of people? I thought that might be fun.

I think God is having a laugh: "And you thought being a Blake's 7 fan was just one long series of disappointments - wait till you see what I do with the remake!"

Heard this news earlier this evening. It stinks.

*kicks things*

[identity profile] executrix.livejournal.com 2004-11-23 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, but there are *52* episodes of B7. Firefly never got the chance to have its own "Animals."

On the upside, however, there are no Firefly radio plays.

YET!!!

Joss is subtle, but he is not cruel.

Ouch, sorry. *Commiserates*

*groan*

[identity profile] altariel.livejournal.com 2004-11-24 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
It certainly does :-(

[identity profile] altariel.livejournal.com 2004-11-24 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Ah well, I'll have to squeeze in a few more viewings of the episodes.

[identity profile] communicator.livejournal.com 2004-11-24 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, man, that would be such fun, count me in

[identity profile] altariel.livejournal.com 2004-11-24 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Cool! Well, we have a while now to plan it, but I'm pencilling it in...

But if it's September there, what does that make it here?

[identity profile] altariel.livejournal.com 2004-11-24 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
Mmph, good point. Although films do seem to get released here a lot closer to US release dates than they used to.

[Gloomily] How do we know it will get a UK release?
