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.
That IS important. People who have not taken classes will do what they have seen on tv.
I'm always afraid of that when I see it done badly. Plus, I find the drama really ramps up when they show it right. I had thought, in Firefly's pilot when they're all floating in with the goods in the beginning, that an opportunity for more tension was lost: that there seemed to be no danger of the crew floating off into space what with no lines or jet thingies. (I'm trying to bring it back around to topic!)
She will co-star opposite Chris Rock in the upcoming movie “I Think I Love My Wife.”
I don't think I can to watch this. Fleets of space cannibals and psychic teenage assassins I can handle, but Chris Rock being able to land Gina Torres as his wife just involves too much disbelief for me to suspend.
I love that you can't hear explosions in the vacuum of space in the Firefly universe.
My biggest movie pet peeve is the one sprinkler head setting them all off. I never worked in fire protection but my friends who did tipped me off and now it really gets under my skin.
Silence in space is one of my favorite things about Firefly. I think it adds to the tension, because one expects a boom and then it doesn't come, and part of you is still tense, waiting for the boom.

I started to think about that, but he is funny, and funny is a great sexer upper. Still, Gina is such a goddess.
Besides, we bought (in a marvelled at sort of way) that Wash landed her. ijs

I watched Superman Returns yesterday, and there's a scene where Supes hovers above the planet and superlistens to the world's suffering, and all I could think of was SOUND DOES NOT TRAVEL THROUGH A VACUUM NO MATTER HOW SUPER YOUR HEARING IS.
Chris!always thebadguy!Cooper
Well, almost always. Have you seen Lone Star? Gorgeous setting, good story, interesting transitions between two time periods, great twist at the end.
Oh, that is a good movie.
Oh yes, I loved Lone Star. I need to go imdb Chris and see where he hasn't been the bad guy. Except for this one, my brain can't churn any up. He does creepy so well though.
Chris Rock doesn't have Wash's arms.
I know Allyson will have my back on this point.
