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.

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

Kalshane, you're probably right about DarkerMal. I wouldn't want him to be any more tortured or cruel than he is.

Some of the scenes I've read in the script that were not in the movie, I think the movie's better without, and the DarkerMal stuff is undoubtedly in that category.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

There's a meme on LJ right now. Oh like you were surprised. Anyhow, it's "Which Peanuts character are you?"

One of the possible answers is Marcie. Sir.

OMG! It all makes sense, now. Zoe is totally Marcie!

If I only had a brain...

ita, why don't you count as a fighter? Because you've totally got professional counted. Just the not-killing-your-coworkers thing proves that beyond debate.

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

I was wondering the same thing, Betsy, but then I guessed that by break 50%, ita means go over 50%, and not just be at 50%.

I can't even.

Saw Serenity again tonight with a group of Browncoats in a "VIP" theatre (like, 24 seats and they bring drinks to your seat). It was a nice way to see it. We went out to dinner as a group afterwards and had a very pleasant time chatting about the film. It always surprises me when there are people who are fans of the film who didn't watch Buffy or Angel at all. One guy said that the dark setting of FF/Serenity really appealled to him, but the brighter look of Buffy never did.

Sometimes genre matters. I love Tim's work a lot, but *The Inside* was too scary for me; it pushed in a different direction than his other work and I couldn't/didn't want to cope.

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

Yes, Perkins -- that's what I meant by break 50%. Half just doesn't cut it.

Woohoo! I understand ita was right.

Now tagless for your comfort.

This is how I want to see it again.
