Kalshane, i think you're talking about a different scene than Mr. Broom.
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.
Yep. Those are two different parts of the same scene. The real dark Mal that was being discussed early is later dialogue (right after Mal shoots the Alliance soldier) not the part in the gag reel where he telling them to put the bodies on the ship.
Well, I think the whole bit from Mal exiting the ship to us seeing Reavered-up Serenity as part of the same scene. The point I was trying to make was the part of that scene we see on the gag reel was bad enough. The tone set by the bit on the gag reel (and the discussion here) gave me a pretty good idea of how the scene would have played out, and the likely result is I would have ended up hating Mal.
The whole thing with the place of honor and hood ornament bits is obviously a joke.
The cartridge bit is from a completely different part of the gag reel.
Re-watched the gag reel.
Someone remind me to never watch something after I should be in bed and then rant about it online.
Yeah.
I'm going to go stick my head in the microwave or something now.
A pillow will probably be more comfortable, Kalshane.
Yeah. 'Cept a pillow won't spin your head around in circles. Otherwise, they're better.
Go, pillow. Choose pillow.
(Does anyone have a copy of the extended FF gag reel s/he'd be willing to share? It was on my now dead desktop. I miss it... the gag reel, that is. I do not miss the desktop.)
Thanks!
