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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Heh. That's funny. I love Jubal's expression.

I just saw the preview for GT fall series for the first time. It looks like it might have some potential.

Whoa.
I just stepped into the FF Spoilers thread.
From the beginning.
In September 2002.
Before the show even aired.
That was weird.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've never been there.
How accurate were the spoilers?

I only read the first page where people were criticizing the Reaver/Native American analogy. I have work to do, so I didn't want to get too sucked in.

I was confused by this, so I checked myself. AICN first made this claim.
Huh.

I guess I can see how they could be read like that. I don't know if that was the intent, though.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I think Joss pretty much came out and said that the Reavers were analgous to old-school Western movie Indians. They weren't meant to be related to actual Native Americans, but rather the "savage outsiders" of the genre.

"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
Yeah. He says as much in the commentary on the pilot. I can see why people were critical because they'd assume it was an analogy entire instead of just analogy of one aspect (that which whoops and paints its face and cuts off your scalp for no discernible reason). Injuns, not Indians (much less Native Americans).
