If you took the sci-fi element of Pluto Nash, mixed it with the outrageousness of Steel, and added in the really bad dialogue from Paycheck, Serenity would be the result.

From this ridiculous review of the movie. It looks like there are vague spoilers (basic plot things), but nothing bad. I skimmed, mostly. But there are some great gems:

The cast is all unknown actors, and considering the director had only done television productions up until now, I was a bit skeptical.

The caliber of the special effects were out of a video game

This movie might just demand a certain tolerance that I just don’t have. The director created Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and that’s a show I’ve never been able to endure (and my complaints are similar). Television in general can be very subjective; some programs are entertaining to some people and ridiculous to others. A lot of television is there for mindless entertainment, and is programmed so that viewers can have it on in the background so you don’t have to watch with your full attention. And the problem with Serenity is that it didn't seem necessary to watch with my complete attention.

And the kicker:

I have a hunch that this movie might not even get a theatrical release (if it does, it could be a very limited release like Below). I was having a hard time imagining it playing in many theaters, let alone anybody showing up; even undemanding moviegoers might walk out. This is the kind of material anyone can see on television for free, and in only a 42-minute time frame (without commercials) versus 120. Serenity is an early contender for the worst movie of 2005 and is one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen, period.

I don't intend anyone take this guy seriously, but it's fun to laugh at him.

It looks like a blue hoodie to me.

I thought it looked all mandarin-collared, and with frogs or buttons or something. /costume geek

Not a hoodie. Half a mandarin collar, almost. But not a hoodie. More like Chinese peasant wear.

He and his father were wearing something very similar at home, weren't they? When they were hanging out with a younger River?

The opening lines of the premiere of Family Guy had me cracking up. "If all those shows go down the tubes, we might have a shot!"

Yes. I'll be interested to see my boyf's reaction to that part of the show. I don't know if he'd seen the previews.

Simon's outfit in that photo immediately reminded me of McCoy in his doc smock. Must be the [blue] . See the upper-rightmost card.

Went to h2g2 on Sunday. I saw the beginning of a trailer with a shot of a world. It looked vaguely sci-fi. We had already seen the SW trailer, so I got all excited, almost cheering. Then it turned out to be a trailer for Chicken Little. Clever tie-in and all, but crap.

I saw the same one libkitty. I was disappointed to not see the trailer for Serenity. I even asked at the guest services desk and they said they didn't even have it in hand yet.

Good idea, beathen. I didn't check, but I can't imagine what else they would have it with instead. The Amityville Horror?

I am so bummed. On the positive side, there were cheers in the theater when "For Douglas" came up on the screen. Douglas Adams was a brilliant man. And maybe they'll have the BDT with Kingdom of Heaven.
