I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains  

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.

I'll try to stay away from your wheaties.

Direct link to the large QuickTime trailer (not full screen). Joss has warned that the trailer has "key dialogue and images" and should be avoided if "you're looking to live totally spoiler-free" (registration required) - a spoiler free version is being edited by someone from FFF who's already seen the movie, so watch out for the torrent link.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Music in trailers is rarely associated with the music in the movie.

Compassionately intolerant

What the hell is "You can't stop the signal" supposed to mean?

My bet?

River has some kind of onboard tracking signal that can't be destroyed.

And YEAH? Where's Kaylee?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I have to go home and watch all my Firefly dvds right this minute. Day-um.

If I only had a brain...

Do you know why Itunes exists?

Assholes.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Beej, I loved that Jayne moment too. And the Wash moment. And all the crazy special effects moments where I have no idea what's going on. And the delivery of "I do."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Paraphrasing: "I'm not armed." "Good." t blam!

I also submit that the trailer isn't required to be whitefonted here.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Besides the Jayne comment I liked this:

Wash: This is gonna get pretty interesting.
Mal: Define interesting.
Wash: Oh God, Oh God, we're all gonna die?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I also submit that the trailer isn't required to be whitefonted here.

I second that. Or whatever.
