He has the sort of peace of spirit that comes from having played in non-peaceful fields.

This is really nicely put.

I'm with sumi, still love the holographic window. (And it makes sense to me too: hg projectors would be easier to transport than glass).

I bought gorm shelves at IKEA this week. Before, I've always thought "gormless" when I've seen the name, but now I read it as "gorram." So I have gorram shelves.

How would a holograph keep the rain out?

Don't say "hard light" okay? Or I'll totally bust your tachyon thingie.

Didn't look like rain was a big problem there. Or that the proprieter cared about keeping the rain out too much.

Hmm, can't say "hard light?" Okay, some sort of ion charge that repulses the rain? (handwaves the physics) Or maybe it just shorts out once a year during the monsoon season.

Plastic wrap and duct tape!

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

"Inside the universe of Serenity" here: [link]

Be warned, it contains about 800,000,000 spoilers.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Thanks, Kevin. That is awesome!

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

I saw that Serenity ad at AMC, and as much as I loved it (I wouldn't leave to go find my friend until it was done), I think it just made everyone around unfamiliar with it groan at the freaks.

ita, are you sure it was the same advert? I don't think it was.

Where was that masked post? I'd thought it was here...

It was an ad that talked about the show, its cancellation, the sneak previews, and had Joss's talking head.

I got confirmation the folk going to the EIFF premiere will be doing a Q&A on the monday, if anybody here is going (Jars..).

Yay! Yay yay yay.

That's pretty much it.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

What's been shown so far have been pilots. Pilots are like demos: show the characters, the world and the story possiblities. They're seldom among the best episodes. Anybody remember "Encounter at Farpoint?"
