Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

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 I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

Used to be, I'd expect the continents to start submerging, as that was the best part of "Waterworld," in that it was a cool effect and that it was the only thing that didn't more or less immediately disappoint.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

every time now that I see a Universal movie, when the Universal logo sequence appears, I keep expecting to start zooming in and hear "Earth-That-Was could no longer sustain..."

This is me, every. single. time. It makes me wish my seaQuest and Earth2 DVDs had stuck with the ten-year-old logo.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I just noticed the page title:

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I listened to the Serenity commentary last night. I get the impression Joss thinks Jack Green, the lighting guy, is slightly competent.

move out and draw fire

Yep, much the way every time I see the Paramount logo it's supposed to turn into an Andean peak with Indiana Jones somewhere on it.

Great recap so far, although I'm only a few screens in.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Speaking of lighting... Re-Lighting The Firefly was not at all what I was expecting it to be.

I am completely in favour of a special edition with many more (and better) extras on it.

If I only had a brain...

Why does Amazon think that if I like the Battlefield Band I'll like Serenity?

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

Because they both have vowels and consonants in their names?
