I had that thought, as well, sumi. That scene was very sub-text-y. It wouldn't surprise me if we haven't seen the last of him.

Fans of Joss Whedon's Firefly will probably enjoy this
When they met the resistance members at the gorge, I remember thinking, "Someone's trying to do Fireflyesque old-timey language." That's the only connection I see. At all.

Wasn't Neal McDonough's costuming similar to Mal's?
(And Azkadellia's similar to Inara's for that matter?)

Thrive to spite them
I'd say Neal's was kinda like Mals, although the hat was more Indiana Jones.
But Azkadeillia's wasn't like Inara. Inara's clothes were always more robes and flowy fabrics, Azkadellia's was more along the lines of skin tight black clothes with the occasional gold lame corset and feather or metal shoulder pad things.

And the "Open my jacket so the monkeys can fly out!" thing would have made more sense if the jackets had ever covered the monkeys. Instead, it was more like, "Look at my BREASTS! Oh, and go, monkeys."

I think it was the mix of technologies -- workaday horsies and Western-type gear with the magical/fantasy architecture and costuming.
I thought Az had some really great outfits, fwiw.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The last chainmail looking outfit kinda rocked.
Tin Man struck me as firmly steampunk, and Firefly never did.

I liked the outfits! Just not so much the "be free, my breasts -- I mean, monkeys!" poses.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
And the "Open my jacket so the monkeys can fly out!" thing would have made more sense if the jackets had ever covered the monkeys. Instead, it was more like, "Look at my BREASTS! Oh, and go, monkeys."
snorts soda up nose
...okay, I do have to see this.
Go monkey! Choose monkey!
