But he had a question I didn't know the answer to (since I never really cared) -- what was the deal with laser guns versus the bulletary variety? Why does everyone have the Wild-West style? We didn't get to Trash, so I couldn't remember what they said.
Somwhere on the new Serenity site, it mentions that only the Alliance are allowed to have lasers. Not sure if this can be considered canon, since it's not strictly spelled out that way in the show, but there ya go.
Also, Kalshane makes a very good point regarding bullets. Same argument holds for horsies.
It's to confuse the Reavers.
Now I have the mental image of the cast suddenly breaking into a spontaneous production of kabuki theatre, complete with make-up, and the Reavers just standing with their heads tilted like in that Monty Python "Confuse a Cat" skit.
I prefer that one to the Star Wars looking one.
Heh. I thought this one was rather Star Wars-looking.
I just thought, what with the heads, and the gun... if they were drawn, instant Star Wars poster. From back in the day, obviously. Which isn't a bad thing.
Way to make sense, Jars.
Spoilerish poster, not?
Anybody have any ideas for a Firefly-centric name for my newest fantasy football team? I'm in a league called, believe it or not, Jaynestown Mudders.
Heh. Did I tell you guys one of the new players in my daughter's roller derby league chose the rink name of "Gorram Reaver?" It made me very, very happy.
Browncoat-ism is beginning to infiltrate the culture. Shiny.
Gunpowder is easier to make than batteries on the frontier moons. Any other reason is just silly.
Do we think the "lassiter/lasseter" was named for the head of Pixar?
Hmm, FF team names. Does it have to be like a real team name (place + mascot)? Coz my league had names like "Blame Canada" and "Cry Havoc" so you could do something like "Train Job" or "Aiming to Misbehave" or "Can't Stop the Signal."
