I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

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.

He just called me asking if I knew of a site with the "chinese" translations on it.

I'm not sure if that was a question, but here ya go [link] .

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

A polyphony on being a Browncoat:

Baseline: I have still not seen Serenity.

Countrapunctus: It grossed x dollars, which are not as good as y dollars.

Chord: The DVD comes soon!

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

Gus! Whyfor have you not yet seen TBDM?

Bev, I have not seen TBDM for two reasons: 1) Movie theatres suck. 2) OK, I don't have a good #2.

Movie theatres are dead to me. The sound and rendering in them compares unfavorably to my home rig.

Setting aside my special circumstances, the drive to a theatre is a hassle.

Hey! I'm willing to send Joss and the cast whatever percentage of the gross that actually reaches their pocket. I am even willing to toss some money toward the (stylish, yet, you know ... classy ) Suits at Uni.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

Wish I could say that too. Actually, I find the sound at most of my local theatres satisfying. Especially the loud and undistorted, and the soft and nigh hiss-free.

All is well that ends in pizza.

A properly equipped THX-compliant theater is usually pretty good, but that's 15-year-old tech now...

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

I have not yet met the home system that beats the cinemas around here. Of course, Tim hasn't invited us over yet.

Yes. I should have stated that as "theatres in my neck of Wisconsin suck."
