Man, those clips are creepy when put together. You get a much more full and disturbing understanding of what has been done to River. The sheer amount of repetition throughout the series kind of takes the meaning out of it, like a word repeated to often: "I don't know what they did to her." "What did they do to her?" "We may never know what they did to her." Seeing this casts everything into sharp relief. I'd just about kill to see more of these sessions.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
And they're so bloody nice about it. Joss is like, "We just want to use your brain! There's nothing wrong with using your brain!"

Hey. New board.
I sniffle at the ending. River's dance love is crucial to my appreciation of the character. I'm not sure why, but it makes her seem more... something. Good. Real. Important. Less like a plot point, maybe.

"I'm confused by the session 416 FAQ--where was all this stuff confirmed?"
Depends on which stuff you mean. Mainly, what's been confirmed is that this is "official" marketing -- whether by 'Versal itself, or by Joss and Summer going off somewhere and filming these clips themselves. That's confirmed by, well, the fact this is clearly Joss and Summer.

The first time I saw it, I thought the last line was, "Will I still be alive to dance?" Which made it VERY creepy.

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

In the October issue of SciFi Magazine:
THE NEW FACE OF SCI-FI
Sit in on a roundtable with David Goyer (Batman Begins), Ron Moore and Joss Whedon as they talk about the end of Star Trek and the future of sci-fi. Transcribed by Patrick Lee.
Not available online that I can see. Don't know if it's hit the bookstores yet. Perhaps I'll go see tonight.
(Ron Moore is head writer and producer for BSG.)

"There are two sorts of people in the world: those who believe Joss Whedon is a genius and those who are wrong." - Connie Ogle, Miami Herald
Yeah, the October issue of Sci-Fi Magazine hit the newsstands at work today. That's on page 32, and there's an article on Serenity on page 26.
