We interupt this thread for a specail rant by yours truly:

Rumor had it that Josh Weaton (sp) was black listed and his TV shows pulled because he supported the wrong political side of things. Far too many good people have as of recent years, been cast down from the lime light and success of hollywood because they do not subscribe to "certain" ideals of those who run hollywood. Let us just say that the left side of the road has far more power and is willing to use said power to ruin any one who does not support or accept their points of view.

That being said, hollywood is indeed in a state of depression that shows in just about every television show and film produced over the last five years. Dwindling box office revenew and lack luster ratings on just about everything on TV. Instead of giving us the shows and films we want, they feed us political points of view and try and tell us what and how to think. Most people tune that out as it has shown.

Films like Serenity which come along once in a blue moon are indeed jewels that we can never get enough of.

As to reviving Firefly, no can do for seven, now six more years according to the contract that was made in order to produce the film. The film did very poorly at the box office because it was not widely advertised, again black listing at work, and if you have not been able to read between the lines, allow me to elabrate by simply saying one name... Lucas.

Remember what happened to BSG in the lates 70's? Lucas sued them and they opted to end the series because the cost of keeping it going was too great. I can still remember the the ABC summer line up previews and the "Still the one, ABC is still the one" commericals that showed off BSG. Man that show was the most exciting thing I had ever seen on TV and when it debuted on Sunday Sept 17th I was hooked and forever amazed. Lucas had a part in taking that, and most recently Firefly off the air and that is why I am not a big GL fan.

End of rant. We now return you to the previously scheduled thread.

Couldn't have said it better. ---- GL ! And the horse he rode in on!
