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.
Meant to mention ages ago: we picked up a copy of EzyDVD's exclusive tin version of Serenity. The front of the tin is unfettered with quotes, or ratings and content warnings, so is well worth getting, even if you already have a copy, and even if you can't play a region 4 PAL dvd.
Oh and they've also got a Firefly tin coming at the end of this month: [link]
trailer = teh awesome.
I'd TOTALLY watch that movie. That should be the Buffyverse film. Okay, so we'd have to handwave some folks back to life. It's not like that's new.
It's pretty sweet, even though by the end, it jumbles up so much that I wasn't sure the putative movie would have a coherent, thematic story. Nice job, regardless.
I got a coherent story, it's just so completely AU for any Universe that it made me WTF at times. Not that that's bad - I love AU.
My intrerpretation: Angel and Crew, after getting info from Andrew, decide to kill crazy-slayer/River/sometimes Faith/at least once Gwen (I loved the meshing). Buffy is all Dawn-style protective for... some unexplained reason. Spike abandons Angel-and-crew for Buffy, and they have a battle of the badasses. Angel wins, captures the slayer, but.... ZOMG THE TWIST CAN THEY SAVE CRAZY-SLAYER?
It'd be long, but it could be pretty good. Definitely more a Buffyverse story than Firefly-verse, though.
Why white font about stories all of which bowed two or three years ago?
I think it would be better without River; she's not part of the 'verse. I don't think her presence in the Buffyverse would hurt the Buffyverse, but I think it feels like a violation of a Firefly character, and its 'verse.
Just ran into Sean Maher at the grocery store. He was very beautiful and I managed to chat without making an extraordinarily large jackass out of myself while thinking, "gosh, he's beautiful."
I said, "wow, you look beautiful!"
Which I say to boys I know well who look beautiful, but am unsure if it's a weird thing from an almost complete stranger to say.
Surely, he's used to it by now.
OK, I'm jealous.
Last weekend I told a stranger I'd had a crush on him when I was 14. It seemed to work out okay.
Why white font about stories all of which bowed two or three years ago?
I was white-fonting the fake story, for those who haven't seen the trailer yet. I... don't really know why?
I agree it'd be better without River, though incorporating the Serenity fight scenes gave for some fabulous action moments.
Sean Maher IS beautiful.
