Serenity was a great movie,as well as all of his other shows he made. Vin I'm sorry but your way over casted for movies. Really do both if they have too, but another Serenity would be great, what are they waiting for.........Get charmed back, Angel, and Firefly......He is the best out there for scifi. I vote Serenity 2. Whedon is brilliant and its sad to see all of his other films, shows that are gone. Serenity was a great movie,as well as all of his other shows he made.

My vote is for Serenity 2. Though if I'm to be totally honest, I would love to simply see the series on air once again. With the sudden resurgence of sci-fi/fantasy shows out there, and even with movies like Star Trek hitting it big at the box office, now seems like a good time to give it a go on a series like this. Sadly, there are too many networks putting their cash behind more reality tv, and more medical dramas. And it seems the general population cannot get enough of them. So where does that leave the rest of us? Fighting the good fight, I suppose. Joss Whedon made me believe in the power of creativity and imagination on television again, it seems such a shame to see Firefly/Serenity fade from the screen when it was, in my opinion, his greatest achievement.

I love Scifi. But i didnt want to see this. My neighbors really wanted to show me the movie because the believe i would like it. They were wrong. I loved it. I was in shock after I left their house. I was upset that I didnt know about this movie. I wanted more. I went back and saw the series with my wife in 72 hours (at our house of course). She never stays up late for bloody tv. Yet here we are watching the entire series into the late hours of the morning and looking forward to the next night. I was still in shock because I was late to know about serenity and firefly. I wish I could have been part of the bunch that where there when they heard "we have a movie!" I want to see the revival opening day so I can say, "I was there." I would really like to have the people who decide to take Firefly and manipulate it the way they did and "DUMP it" to be publically pelted with roten tomatoes for 7 minutes. I like Riddick. I like Vin D. I would like to see both. At gun point which one. Serenity 2 with a follow up of 3. Then a series. Better yet, give us the series 1st to feed the starving fans.

Bringing back Serenity would be such an achievement that the fan base would go nuts and dance in the streets. I go to charity screenings and the popularity of the show just keeps growing; I'd love to see a Serenity 2 movie with the original cast intact. I've watched everything Star Trek including the original series thru every iteration, and nothing compares to Firefly and Serenity in my loyalty and interest. I continue to watch them over and over and never get tired of that unique ensemble of characters... Hopefully, Universal is monitoring this article and the feedback!

But i guess those who, (me included) know that the mindnumbing awsomeness of the Riddick universe will prevail in the long run, thus not needing even to participate in voting,can relax and marvel over the lack of taste out there. I´ll admit that Chronicles of Riddick suffers from,....no f**k it, it´s awsome, period. One of my favorit sci-fi movies. The games are pretty freakin good too.

Oh yes, find a way to bring back all the characters from the original series; it can be, and has been done many times before. Just think of the Doctor on Stargate Atlantis that was killed off, the fans when nuts and then we had a cloned doctor...

Shephard Book's backstory (still possible even thoughhe's dead :'(), the Blue Sun corporation, and our romantic tension between Mal and Inara. There is so much room for continuation with Zoe having to deal with Wash's death and everything else that wasn't wrapped up with Serenity. The tons of smaller storylines in the larger one is what draws us to the Serenifly 'verse. I'd personally like to find out more about YoSaffBridge. I'm sorry, this is actually a question?
