7. "Serenity" (2005)

Directed by Joss Whedon

The Movie: The beloved TV series and movie follow-up from nerd god Joss Whedon transplanted the tropes of a Western into a fractious future where mankind’s colonized distant planets. Charming rogue Mal Reynolds anchors a crew of losers and outcasts on the run from the Alliance, a fusion of the American and Chinese governments that rule the inner part of the galaxy with an iron fist.

Why a "Serenity" Game Needs To Exist: Viewers were only getting to know Whedon’s sci-fi universe before Fox pulled the plug on the TV series and the feature film that followed only left fans wanting more. Fillion’s an avid gamer, has played a lead role in "Halo: ODST," and surely love to reprise his captaincy in a video game.

Who Should Make It: Bungie. The one thing that the "Halo" games lacked was personality so it’s be great to see what Master Chief’s daddies would do with Joss Whedon’s scruffy ragtag band of spacefarers. The crew of the Serenity aren’t cyborg super-soldiers like the Spartans of the Xbox mega-franchise but you can still give them an epic adventure with the huge ground battles and sweeping, upper-atmosphere dogfights seen in "Halo: Reach."

If It Doesn’t Happen, You Can Always Play: "Bulletstorm." It’s not out yet but Epic Games’ first-person shooter is aiming to capture the rapid-fire banter and two-fisted feel of "Firefly"/"Serenity." The game’s characters also live on the fringes of colonized space, falling into piracy to earn enough money to keep them drunk. And the game’s Skill Shot system—where you figure out how to kill enemies in the most egregiously flamboyant way possible— evinces an inherent brashness that also feels kindred to "Firefly"/"Serenity."
