>[link]Seems like there is a Comic prequel for Serenity in the works. Details are sketchy.
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

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.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

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.
Whoo! The Chicagoland Browncoats managed a sweep of all the awards we were eligible for this year at Capricon. St. Lucy's Hospital won Best Party, Best Theme Party, Best Alcoholic Drink and Best Non-Alcoholic Drink. [link]

We all had a blast, spread the word about Firefly and Serenity and treated scores of "patients" with the best in Alliance medicines. I'll post pictures when my brain recovers from the long hours in the OR.

Sometimes evil drives a minivan.
Yea! And be careful what pictures you post!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
When we did All My Sons in college, people kept asking the box office for tickets to My Three Sons . I'll bet they were surprised.
I wanted to get t-shirts made that pictured (from the knees, down) the father and the remaining son next to an empty pair of combat boots.

I though you'd might like to know that coffee just went up my nose.

Enemy of the People is what Jaws is basically a version of, but with a shark. Speilberg's attempt to make The Doll's House with a giant alligator was, however, doomed to failure.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
So off the Firefly topic, but. after watching My Three Sons after school for so long, I was blown away by seeing Fred MacMurray in Double Indemnity. I could not believe it was the same man!.

You should see THE APARTMENT some time. A really good Jack Lemmon role, and Fred MacMurray as an unbelivably nasty corporate weasel. It's a very bitter, biting commentary, set (when it was made) during the "gray flannel suit" era.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
My gold standard of Fred MacMurray nasty is The Caine Mutiny Court Martial. Nothing says nasty like ass-covering cowardice. (Also, check out Bogart as Caine slowly unraveling.)
Enemy of the People was made into a movie, you know. It was Steve McQueen's last movie, I am pretty sure.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Heh, I was going to mention the Caine Mutiny. MacMurray really did make a career out of being a dick, at least until he did The Absent-Minded Professor.
McQueen's last movie was The Hunter, which I only know because of the Drive By Truckers song about McQueen.
The coolest goddamned motherfucker on the silver screen...
