"BuffyBot" ,'Dirty Girls'
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.
Thanks, KernelM.
the fandomwank posters ought not throw stones, you know.
Too true.
In other news, I have successfully made a full Firefly convert out of one coworker (he admitted to buying the Serenity Visual Companion today!) and another's interest has been piqued. I may not always love my job, but my super-geeky coworkers are pretty great.
That does bring up the darkly funny image of intercepting Reaver comm calls were they're glaring at the viewscreens and screaming at each other in some way that actually works as communication.
I totally buy this explanation.
Pointing to various body parts sewn into their clothing as part of the process...
It's not macabre fashion sense, just a disgusting way of communicating. 'Reaver points to an ear sewn into his vest while grunting someone's 'name', then makes biting motions and holds up a thumb from his necklace.' translates to "Tell Frank I'm going to bite his thumbs off if he comes near my ship again."
Frank waggles his digitless hands into the vidscreen, signifying "HA! I bit them off myself. Sucks to be you!"
That's me. I've been wiped all over the board at Whedonesque. I'm unsure if they're calling me one of the craxies.
You suck for not liking the Great Masterpiece?
No one noticed that I disliked Serenity.
No, see, I am a bad person for saying some Browncoats, they are craxy.
The response in general was, "Trekkies are craxy, TOO!"
And so, that negates my post. I think.
It totally negates your post---in CRAXYLAND.
In fairness, I said that things like buying tickets for strangers and papering cars in parking lots crossed a line into prostelytizing that made me feel uncomfortable.
Some compared that to street teaming, which I suppose is fair, except I don't understand the need for street teaming when there's a large, funded marketing campaign from which I cannot escape on television.
I also said some Browncoats have gone off the deepend into religious fanatacism that I found creepy. I could copy and paste posts, but find that to be bad form, so I didn't. But you can sift through handfuls of posts at the Serenity board and feel fully creeped out.
Don't go to the Serenity board. That way lies madness.
