More Talk,Less Action
Tuesday, October 18, 2005

If SciFi can budget a show like Battlestar with all the special effects,then why not a FIREFLY with less effects and more drama.My interest in FIREFLY has always been about the characters and the actors that play them.The storylines of each one and the combined big picture of where it would lead to in several years. I wanted to learn about Book's past slowly over time.It's great how all the characters seem to fit together even though they are completely different.I can do without some big space battle every week that cost big bucks and takes camera time from our BDHs.Don't get me wrong, I love to see Serenity in flight and landing on some moon to ditch the FEDS,but I can't see Firefly's effects costing more than those of other shows.If the effects have to be cut then cut them, but GIVE US BACK OUR SHOW!!

There is still hope for Firefly and I too want to hear about Book, and have the musteries unfold slowly.

I wish SCI FI or HBO would pick it up and let it free. I know ppl do not want to pay for HBO and I respect that.. but they do give a lot of freedom to those who create on their network...

I'm not sure if special effects add all that much to the cost of a show nowadays with all the fancy technology. I don't think it'd be worth taking out all the cool effects just to drop the budget.

But I like your thinking :)
