You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

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.

A One that isn't cold, is scarcely A One at all.

My take on fandom. I actually think of it as a broader term different than the way it's commonly used. According to wikipedia, "in politics, a country (or in some cases, a group of countries) over which a king or queen reigns, is a kingdom." So stands to reason fandom is made up of all these individual fan communities, for the sake of simplicity let's call fancomms. To make an analogy fancomms:drinks as fandom:alcohol. You can quit drinking but you can never be an ex-alcoholic. You may quit a particular fancomm or it might fade away but that doesn't mean you're out of fandom because your just the next fancomm away from being back in. Hi, my name is AnthonyDe and I'm a fandomholic. (this is not in anyway to diminish the serious of alcohlism but to draw a parallel to addiction)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

is there anyone around who actually has some Firefly-related thoughts or opinions to share?

Wait. What?

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

My sister's trying to watch Firefly. To shut me up. She thinks that Zoe and Wash are too improbable a couple, and that the characters aren't as complex as I made them sound.

Oddly, I don't remember saying they were complex. In fact, I don't think that Zoe, my head-and-shoulders favourite is that complex. Doesn't means she's not interesting. Or magnificent.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I am a leaf on the wind.

Sigh.

If we're really lucky, they'll do it in that order...

Can I put in a belated suggestion for "kuffle". As in a shortening of the opposite of what Kevin managed to kick off on here, as opposed to the on-line person kuffle. ;)

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Can kuffle be my tag?

I haven't a clue who runs here, and don't care, and that's the way it should be IMHO.
