Re:Movie rumors
Like the Frey, I too have been checking the heavens above for a squadron of flying donkeys migrating towards Halifax with a hogtied Michael McManus in tow. 😆 Lovely person that Ms.Seeberg is, I cannot just take her word for it. I’ve been around long enough to have seen this type of rumor come to naught many times in the past.
*puts away her knife and pats LexxLurker on the head 😀 * I agree, the Divine Mr. McM is irreplacable. Anyone else playing Kai, or a movie without Kai would be a tremendous disappointment to me.
Quite frankly, unless Paul Donovan himself slides down my chimney on Christmas Eve and places a movie contract signed by the aforementioned Divinely Pouty One ( in triplicate ) under my Christmas tree, then I have to assume MM is finished with LEXX. In which case, Kai is finished, happily frolicking in the Dream Zone, never to be seen again anywhere but in my fevered nocturnal imaginings, and in reruns/DVD’s. 😥
As painful as this may be for some to hear, it bears repeating:

The fat lady, or phat assassin as the case may be, has already sung Vaiyo A-O. It was a good way to die. Most of Season 4 was cringe-inducing. The Beans and company were right to end it where they did, IMHO. To tack on a movie would feel contrived and would diminish the poignant ending they gave LEXX.
LexxLurker and aquabloodstone are right. We do deserve better than some half-hearted rehash. It’s not to say that it’s impossible for the Beans to come up with a wonderful LEXX movie script that includes Kai without using some assenine plot device like Kai being found in the shower after Stanley wakes up from a dream. It’s also not impossible that I could win the lottery and forward my winnings to MM’s bank account with the proviso that he appear in a LEXX movie. But I don’t see all these things coming together.
Not that I’m a Time Prophet or anything. I would be thrilled to bits to be completely and utterly wrong. 😀
