Some people do not want a Firefly animated show.

@las_lallero@puntarella.party @afreytes@mastodon.gamedev.place you raise many fair points...
Seriously though, I know Tudyk is a great voice actor, but I'm not aware of what the others are like.
An animated series can be amazing. Perhaps they could join forces with critical role. Main issue there would be an high risk of amazon involvement.

@afreytes Wait wait wait, there is a Firefly animated series on the horizon? And people are... *complaining*?

[afreytes@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@YukiSora and loudly... yeah... I mean... I understand having reservations about the story... The people who may or may not be involved... But really it feels like prejudging and precensoring something they havent even seen yet... But like I said I would like to have the option... Who knows maybe the thing itself actually ends up being bad, but I would like to cross that bridge for myself.

[yukisora@blorbo.social]

@afreytes I see. Honestly I think, if any new Firefly stories are to come out, animated series is the best medium for it.
Not knowing who's involved and who is not, I can't really comment on it, though I hope Nathan Fillion is involved somehow.

@afreytes what the FFFFFFFUUUUUCK?!??

I thought I saw a “Season 2 coming” for scavenger’s reign?!

Fuck these fucking assholes. Jesus. By that, I mean viewers and producers.

It was - BY A COUNTRY FUCKING MILE - the best sci-fi show in decades.

….. AAAARGH

[afreytes@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@chongliss AFAIK Netflix decided not to go ahead with a season 2. (HBO had already denied interest).

PS: One of the concept artists for the show was here in the fedi but I don't remember their account name

@afreytes …. Dang….

@afreytes

It's less that I want less art, and more that I want less Whedon/Fillion/Confederate apologism. I have more thoughts than I can probably effectively convey 500 characters at a time, because I don't even necessarily disagree with the themes (the government _is_ out to get you, but also holy shit we can deconstruct it better than this)

I love firefly, but especially in the context of modern everything, ugh, someone else please give me space cowboys.
