Found this entry for Firefly on the IMDB website while I was looking for info on one of the cast members.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379786/

Now....It lists Firefly the movie as being in production for the year 2003 which we know is wrong and it list all the shows writers & director's as the ones for the movie. I think they need to either get on the ball and list some slightly more accurate info or drop the listing until it's confirmed that the movie is indeed in production.

imdb is not an "official" site, per se. Its information comes from all kinds of sources, including from fans and regular folks. Thus while it's a great resource and a lot of its info is correct, there are errors and confusions and jumping-the-gun stuff, too.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Looks like the last update was December 2nd. Guess they took the news of Joss pitching the script and ran with it. Doesn't look like they have bothered to update it since.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. Once official news is given on the movie's status, they will most likely update the info.

One thing I've learned.
Never take anything IMDB says as gospel.

Since this project is categorized as being in production, the data is subject to change or could be removed completely.

Very true....It's just that sometimes I have very little tolerance for inaccuracy. Especially when it's to do with something I find very important.

I'm usually the same, but there being an imdb listing for the movie cheers me up enough, so I don't mind if the info's all guesswork - at least it's listed!

Not only does it have an air date of Nov, 12 2004, but it lists it as "Episode 16".
