today had two FF moments for me. At lunch time, a few co-workers started giving me a hard time for using the word "Shiny". Whatever. But then, after work, was celebrating a different co-workers b-day. After dinner the party moved to a bar. Pictures started being snapped, so my iPhone (with Serenity logo as the desktop) gets whipped out. One of the other party goers sees the brief flash of it and asks. It was a great geek moment. There are Browncoats out there! Yippee.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

All is well that ends in pizza.
OiS wasn't actually the last episode, Joss just made it that for the DeeVeeDee.
People always say that, but I've never understood how that could be.
Because it was actually intended to be the last. See Joss's comment on Heart Of Gold above.
The DVD order is the order Joss intended. Time pressures and studio execs caused a different order.
Because of the shuffling, some scenes got shuffled.
Presumably if more eps were forthcoming beyond OiS, we would have gotten more closure/resolution/story.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I think Tim was also involved in shifting episode order on air. Which, really, I agree with - they needed the better episodes up front as it was obvious from the first episode they were going to get cancelled if it didn't find a much bigger audience.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Finally watched HoG. I've always thought it was out of character for Mal to decline payment but now I'm thinking it's because Inarra said she was going to pay and out of her savings.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
What was it? I see no reason why a reasonable person wouldn't think it was some sort of grappling hook. I saw the movie twice and still couldn't figure out what the hell it was.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I saw the movie twice and still couldn't figure out what the hell it was.
I think it was a giant spear-like thing.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
That's right - it was like a harpoon wasn't it? So functionally not entirely outside the realm of grappling hooks; just minus any hook part.
