Wesley: Hey. Hey, Gunn. Is something weird going on? … Charles, you just peed on my shoes. Gunn: I'll be damned. That's weird.

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.

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

After ita put her Big Red Spoiler Warning up, I was tempted to post the biggest Serenity spoilers here, in equally big and red text.

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

If you want to stay unspoiled, leave. I'm tempted to get the big spoiler(s) out there too, but maybe later.

Yeah, is there anyone still here who hasn't seen Serenity yet?

I'm tempted to get the big spoiler(s) out there too, but maybe later.

So it's OK to talk about how Zoe gives birth to a capybara now?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

is there anyone still here who hasn't seen Serenity yet?

me, but then again I'm spoiled silly and willing to be spoiled-er between now and 4:45

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

At 10:30 pm, I learned there was a midnight showing at a nearby theater. So yay, I got to see it 14 hours sooner than I thought!

I'm still exhausted from the adrenaline rush. God, that was good. That was like having two hours of really great sex.

It isn't perfect, but to be perfect, it would have had to be four or five hours long.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Yeah, is there anyone still here who hasn't seen Serenity yet?

I'm going to Serenity tonight with Nicole, Sailaweigh, and Beverly. None of them have seen it, and only Nicole is a little bit spoiled. My head may explode if we keep talking about the movie .

(Maidengurl is going to, but I don't know if she has seen it or not.)

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

But they're not here, are they? About to be spoiled by reading that Zoe wears the best dress ever?

OK, you know the idea that the "can't stop the signal" is a big Fuck You to Fox? (I think it's true for the marketing, but dunno if I think it's true for the movie.) Well, the guy who helps them get the signal out is Mr. Universe. And the movie was produced by Universal.

Coincidence? I think probably.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

I've gotten tickets for the 7:45 showing. Taking my whole immediate family (Myself, my wife, our adult child, our surly teenage child, and the 10 year old) and 2 people who I have toastered. And am talking the hell out of it at work, which is one of the highest concentrations of geeks in the Salt Lake Valley.
