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.
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.
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.
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.
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...

Queeg. The Caine was the boat, I believe.
I want to know what happened to the strawberries.
Bogie gave good crazy (see also TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE).

Was that the movie about the (fictional) crew of the WWII destroyer that mutinied against their crazy and incompetent captain?
