GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I think River was already in cryo before Simon picked her up. IIRC.

That's what I meant. But the scene from the trailer with River in the chair of doom and Simon with the flashy thing suggests either another rescue or a retconn of the original.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Kalshane is a trufan. Still, I'm not getting either of these.

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

Oh. See, I don't see a flashback contradicting something in an episode to be a retconn, just bad continuity. Unless, say, it turns out that Simon lied in the pilot episode. Maybe my definition of 'retconn' is too restrictive?

What are you guys talking about?

What flashback? Simon with the bouncing-betty device?

A possible flashback in the trailer would (if it was a flashback) contradict the scene in the pilot (the original, two hour one) where Simon says he paid folks to put River in cryo and ship her to him.

I watched that thing nine times and still have no idea where you are coming from. Gimme a line. All I saw Simon do was look profile-y in one shot, and launch an exploding thing in another.

I may have to seize the cat.

I really do think it has the potential to be the next Star Wars, seriously.

I myself prefer to imagine it as Star Trek. Cancelled show, groundswell of fans, so many movies it starts getting sketchy (WHALES?), etc.

bad continuity.

In a Whedon production? Never!

...how old is Angel?

I haven't watched it recently (i.e. in the last few hours) so I'm not sure exactly what scene that is.

In the scene with the exploding thingy, River is strapped into the chair from her OMGNEEDLESINHEAD flashbacks from the show.

Though looking at the screencap, I guess that's not neccessarily River in the chair.

OK, I think that was River was in the chair. I'm down with how this could have been pre-River-hibernation.
