[QUOTE="Omand, post: 8157704, member: 14344"] [USER=27897]@Ryujin[/USER] I think Star Wars and Star Trek would like to have a word with you about not being considered current SciFi universes that are multimedia. ;) [USER=6802378]@LuisCarlos17f[/USER] The name is not the issue here. You could call something Multimedia or Transmedia, they are similar and related concepts as that Wikipedia article indicates. Maybe I am being unclear in my argument, but you seem to be arguing that in order for Firefly/Serenity to be multimedia/transmedia you have to mash in a whole bunch of other things (necromorphs, corporations, etc.). But that is not the definition of what multimedia is. Anything can be multimedia. Firefly/Serenity as a space western can be multimedia (I would agree with [USER=27897]@Ryujin[/USER] and [USER=41932]@trappedslider[/USER] that it is not currently multimedia). In order for it to be multimedia there simply would need to be development to get the characters and setting into something more than the TV/Film niche it is currently in. So, perhaps some computer games, comics (which appears to be on the way as per [USER=177]@Umbran[/USER]), novels, etc. It can be a space western and become multimedia without adding any other genres to the mix. Anyways, I am beating a dead horse so I will leave it there. Cheers :) [/QUOTE]
