"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Okay, I've now read two "Serenity" reviews that casually mention that Joss is married to Jewel Staite.

Good lord. Is this a strange Kai=Kaylee confusion stemming from crappy shorthand, or something? Most odd.

I am very very very very jealous of you Q&A-attending people. VERY jealous. All about the jealousy.

sighs.

Well, tomorrow I'm off up to Edinburgh to see Serenity. Er. And hang out with my mate. But mostly see Serenity. Go me, with the ticket having!

...do we know if there's any possibility of it coming to Cairo? We only tend to have maybe five or six English-language movies at a time in the whole damned country, so I've been assuming it'll be a no...but, oh, damn, I hope it does come. My flatmate (one of many whom I've converted to The Way of Firefly [Go Team Me! Really, at this rate I'm going to need to start selling off my excess toasters on e-bay]) is just gutted that she won't get to see it before we head back out to Africa.

[insert something funny here]

Thanks for the heads up, Allyson.

I echo P-C's sentiments. I'm quite pleased with myself thatI actually managed a whole day before I caved to the tempatation...

It was pretty fucked up. The "dead baby" description is accurate, though the episode really isn't that gory, if anyone was worried. As usual, the disturbingness is all abstract. I don't know about the "feel-good" part. I'm not jumping for joy, though I get what Tim meant. I love all the mind games the characters play.

It disturbed the hell out of me in places! In a word? Brilliant.

"Don' be e-scared"

That's a word I can live with, Partyman.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Are DVDs certain for The Inside? Because I can wait, but I can't deal with never getting to see the rest of the episodes.

Nothing is certain at this point, I'm afraid.

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

Not only do I want to see the rest of the episodes, I missed the last 2/3 of De-Clawed due to VCR difficulty.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Nothing is certain at this point, I'm afraid.

Just grim death of your characters and taxes.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Nothing is certain at this point, I'm afraid.

Ack! I was sort of resigned to the cancellation, but that was because I figured I'd at least get to see the episodes on the DVD.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

But when casting the role of Nude Alien Vampire, Lifeforce hit it out of the park.

Well, I didn't say it was all bad.

At the risk of sounding like a total suck-up, I'd love to see Tim's take on the novel. (Either one will do ... Minear or Burton :)
