does this mean there is a season two, or that we now have a place to centralize and work for season two?

If you play Nationstates.net check out the region Firefly.

Why is this yelling 'hoax' at me?

It makes perfect sense. The entertainment biz moves on money and numbers alone.
A centralized DB of demographics is needed to convince the suits of anything, and is lacking at this moment.
I've told everyone I know to signup at this site for Season 2, and you should too. There can be no harm in trying, only in not trying.

What I think this means is that we all have a place to go to say, "Yes, damn it, sign me up! This is how much I'd pay."

It's a fine idea, though I dislike the fact that it's a little dishonest about it. But yes, it's a machine to collect the marketing info that might actually convince someone to make season 2.

I went ahead and signed up. There isn't much I wouldn't do to bring Firefly back. Serenity was amazing and fantastic, and if the movie studios of the world had sense they'd have Joss Whedon make all of the movies everywhere he's just that great, BUT if Joss is willing to do Firefly as a tv series again, that would be my first choice for the future of Firefly. Here's hoping! :)

I wouldn't say "hoax"...I mean, if you're thinking it's actually a legit "Season 2 is in the works right now!" thing, then no. But they're not asking for money or anything, just info...might go about it a bit vaguely and the like, but it's not like they're trying to get you to pay them or anything.

In fact, its probably costing them money, whoever "them" is, since I've already seen it pop up on Google's Sponsored Links, which I believe costs money to advertise.

I don't want to say "hoax" either, but I did notice Glock became a member the day of this thread and has not made any other posts. Ok, that might not mean anything, but it makes me reluctant to provide any identifying information on the website.

Jayne: I once hit a guy in the neck from 500 yards with a bent scope. Don't that count upstairs?
Book: Oh, it'll be taken into consideration.
Jayne: You made that sound kind of ominous.

Well the only real information I had to provide was my name and home state, hell you can find that in any old whore house in New Jersy.

Why not? Can't hurt.

Will there be other features added to this page? Seems odd that entering your data is the only thing you can do at the moment.

Rather an odd site. No "About Us" page there so we have no idea who is behind all this.

Yeah, I use my name as my username everywhere, and I've never hid that I'm from CT. If anyone cared to get my information, it would be very easy to do so. I signed up...I don't actually expect anything from it, but why not? Could be a totally meaningless thing, or maybe someone actually is collecting information to at least look into the possibility of this. I really have no idea.

I offered the suggestion of custom-made commericals to make sure people are actually watching the ads as well - all I can remember at the moment is a suggestion for a Nissan Maxima or Infiniti R35 Skyline GTR commercial shot in firefly's in-the-moment jitter-cam style ending in SHIFT_shiny.

That is, ads riddled with various in-jokes such as a Blue-Sun logo coffee mug in a Columbian coffee ad or the Serenity's reactor core among the machinery in a NASA TV-spot. If it were feasable to custom-build the ads through selective cutting and editing of a 'master' version of the ad, it may be assumed that fans of a show would pay special attention to the ads to find all the inside-gags and the ads may even get repeat exposure as being part of a TV series' DVD compilation extras.

I figured it would help seeing as how they won't take our money or our word on whether or not the show can resume; perhaps we could convince advertiser-sponsors to make commercials fans of a particular show would actually want to see.

I took a marketing class in high school, drown me. ^^
