    It's OK to grow and change. We will not be young again; we can let the things that were good when we were young, because we were young, go.

    We don't need to our youth repackaged and sold back to us. We know what's at the end of that road.

          @floe Worse, looks like a new season with the old cast.
          (Not really informed, I just saw a teaser)

            @mhoye that's right. And then again there are lots and lots of lovers of old hardware, DOS 8086, Atari, Mac games, CGA graphics, mod tracker and demo software etc.

            So maybe, only maybe, we people of a certain age might be open for shiny new things even if the concept is old.

              @DerGiga @floe @mhoye <very long sigh> animated series set between series and movie voiced by original cast. I’m interested to see what they do, it’ll be good or it won’t, but I don’t see why anyone needs to put so much weight on it. On either side.

              And I’m not sure the β€œI put aside childish things” is healthy either.

                @mhoye let's just make good new stuff. That's what some problematic dudes did twenty years ago.

                  Very true.
                  Not only regarding Firefly.
