Ah, OK, thanks.
I swear, one of these times, you're gonna wake up in a coma.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
Our lab tech reports that the Serenity trailer is now in front of Star Wars here, yay!
Might have to go wince through that atrocious dialogue again...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hold me like you did by the lake on Naboo....

Six-word Serenity. But who won?
I didn't! But I did get an honourable mention...not that that gets me into the preview or anything. (to wit: Blue Hand Group seeks preternatural prepubescent.)
needs to stop the squeeing and get to work

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

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Am I the only one who quite likes the trailer music, un-Firefly-y though it may be?
"Club Foot" by Kasabian, also heard during the kind-of-cool-but-later-found-out-to make-no-sense-ski-chase scene in an ep of Smallville this season.
I like the Train Job. I don't like HoG that much, but I can't totally hate it b/c it has Melinda Clarke and Jayne gettin' all poetical about his John Thomas. It is probably my least favorite, though.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I love The Message despite all its Tracy faults because Allyson visited the set while it was filming. Not a good filmic reason, I know. But the other reason I love that episode is the funeral scene, and the music. The composer was saying goodbye to the series while the crew was saying goodbye to the fallen. The half-slow motion, the falling snow, it's all a perfect goodbye to something beloved, and I love it for that.
And I love it for the outtake of Tracy's message droning on and on and on with the crew circled around the coffin, trying not to crack up while Nathan keeps popping up in a new spot as the carmera pans around. And the cunning Jayne hat. Frozen planet-eating! So much to love, really. I'm not saying it's a best episode, nor even maybe a good one. But I love it, still.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I had Matt's reaction to HoG (low expectations that were exceeded) and Bev's reaction to The Message (love it despite it's flaws).

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Jesus, I still haven't watched the unaired episodes. I guess since I'm seeing the movie this week, I really ought to get on that, huh?

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'
I just realised that I'm not going to see Serenity on Sept.30. I'll be on vacation visiting family members for 2 weeks. How absolutely bitchy would it be to say, "Hey, haven't seen you in 5 years and you in 10. Let's go to the movies." On the plus side, we might visit New York City (never been there) and see Spamalot.
