Star Trek-style design of ship interiors
Which Star Trek was this reviewer watching, the short-lived Star Trek on the Prairie?
"I canna make the ship go any faster, cap'n, unless you ask your Paw for some dilithium crystals and a new butter churn."

Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.

Yeah, that was a big WTF when I read that. The only Trek show that came close to consistently having interiors like the ships in FIREFLY/SERENITY was DS9, and those were the station's, not the ships'.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I was wondering that too, and then I thought well, the inside of the Alliance ships are somewhat Star Trek-y but considering the name-sake of the movie is very non-Star Trek, it's an unwarranted criticism.
I am still annoyed, though, that the color scheme of the show was very brown, while the movie is very blue, which I suppose could contribute to the feeling of Trekkitude.

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

At least it wasn't green, because that would have meant it was happening in the Matrix.

I think (but don't know for fact) that browns and reds are going to look better on the small screen, and crappier on the big screen, while blues are better looking on the big screen.

Maybe blue signals are the ones that can't be stopped.

The Flick Filosopher's review of the first seven eps. Tomorrow is the second half of the series, and Friday is the movie review. Considering she's already ranked it as her third-favorite movie of the year so far, I'm guessing it's pretty favorable.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Kathy, I love the FF, but for some reason every time I try to go from your link to her "Introduction to Firefly" it's crashing my browser (3 times so far in the last 5 minutes). Which is mightily irritating, as I really want to read all her words. Might I beg you, if it's not too much trouble, to maybe send a copy'n'paste of the intro to my profile addy sometime?
eta: Grrr. Make that 4 times, and now her entire site is crashing me. Bah!

Will do--I don't know what's causing the crash (I'll let her know on her blog that there's a problem, though).

move out and draw fire
It's working for me, but the stupid interactive ad at the top of the page is screwing with my HID.
My DH just pointed me at PVP, for the cartoon but mostly for the two articles below it ("Joss has seen the shirt!"): [link]
