Of course, we never had any doubts.

Did we?

Yeehah!

For those who might not know the difference, the Nebula awards are given out by the Science Fiction Writers of America (SFWA). In other words, this is Joss being judged best by his peers, the wordsmiths.

The Nebula is one of the two most prestigious awards in the science fiction community; the other is the Hugo award given out by vote of the membership of the World Science Fiction Convention (Worldcon). Serenity has been nominated for the best dramatic presentation (long form); the other nominees are:

Batman Begins
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Wallace & Gromit in the Curse of the Were-Rabbit.

Stiff competition, and it'd be no shame to lose to the least of them.

But then, we ain't goin' to, are we?

Good to see him win it.
Those movies for that Hugo award, they seem pretty highbudget (dont know about Wallace&Grommit though), Kinda fun to see Serenity compete with movies that had bigger salladbarbudgets then the total moviebudget for Serenity. Hope they win that one to.

Keep spreading the word about Firefly!

Absolutely deserved! Joss has turned this strange world on its ear more than once. He has made us think and talk and be outraged and giddy with joy. Anyone capable of doing that sure as hell should be recognized for it. May this be just the first!

Wow! Congratulations, Joss!

This is a big one!

Congratulations, Joss. Wish I cou;d've been there for the banquet, but I only got to go to the reception the night before. Stil I got to see the nominations, and how much the Sci-fi world appreciates what you do. Nary a soul there wasn't a devoted fan or at least providing nothing but praise(I had to fend off Harlan ellison to get a signed One-sheet!).

You keep flyin', and we'll all keep watching.

Congratulations, Joss.

And it is a great book too. Lots of pics and stuff.

I managed to send an award update to imdb.com for
this. It says it can takes weeks to update the
Awards page. Hopefully, a bunch of other
Browncoats didn't do the same thing.
