The net is abuzz with Joss Whedon's proclamation that there will be no Serenity sequel. Except ... that's not quite what he said. He said there's no movie in the works, and that in follow-up comments said it was unlikely unless a studio asked for it ... but that's a bit different from saying we'll never see Serenity again.

Personally, I've accepted this. Serenity was a good capstone for the series, and while there are still unanswered questions I'd love to see answered (what was the deal with Book anyway? And those blue-handed assassins?) I can live with the fact that I've got 13 episodes and one movie to remember the series by.
