Wow, Matt.
That is amazing. I simply can't see it the same way. As much as I liked Wonderfalls (yes, simply liked) it can in no way compete with the brilliance that was Firefly.
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.

Different strokes thing, I guess. Mind you, the only shows on TV that I've ever loved as much as Wonderfalls are the first 3 seasons of Buffy and stretches out of Angel Seasons 1 and 2. Anything else I'd have burned the masters of to get the back 9 of Firefly.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I definitely was more in love with Firefly than Wonderfalls myself. It simply had more meat on it, plus I loved almost all the characters.

Different Strokes, indeed!
I love the later seasons of Buffy and Angel. The darker something gets, the more I like it. That is why I am salivating over The Inside.
And maybe Serenity isn't for you. I'm just saying.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
How about if the Buffistas took up a paypal collection to pay for your ticket plus refreshments?
I can afford a movie ticket and buttered popcorn. It's not an issue.
Or, what if Tim Minear himself offered to take you as his date to the premiere?
I'm sure Tim's dancecard is full. But it's a funny sentence.

Hell, in a perfect world, we'd get long runs for Firefly, Wonderfalls and The Inside each with Tim Minear executive producing.

Hmm. That may not be Tim's perfect world however. The man needs to sleep at some point.

And maybe Serenity isn't for you. I'm just saying.
By the principle that if I don't like the show better than anything else, evah, I shouldn't bother with it at all? Or that liking the second seasons of Buffy and Angel means that I have no taste for darkly-themed entertainment?
Thanks just the same, but I'm actually planning on being front and center at the theater September 30th with as many of my friends as I can persuade to tag along.

What if Nilly took a trip all the way to America just to see Serenity with you? Would you turn her down?
...kidding...
Seriously though, have you really completely written off the Serenity theater experience? Do you not think it's worth your time? What am I missing?
Please note: I'm not trying to give you a hard time, I'm just curious.
