"We are just too pretty for God to let us die!"
The look on Mal's face when he gets the order to lay down arms...
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe.
"We are just too pretty for God to let us die!"
The look on Mal's face when he gets the order to lay down arms...
Wash and the dinosaurs.... "Mine is an evil laugh... Oh dear God in heaven..."
"Cry baby, cry.... make your mother sigh..."
Take my love, take my land....
"Ain't a power in the 'Verse can stop Kaylee from being cheerful, sometimes you just want to duct tape her mouth..."
....
"Sure like to find a compression coil..." hello foreshadowing.
...
"I never married... I"m not a grandpa"
...
Badger, badger badger, snake....
Simon looking so sinister...
"Why not?"
"Cuz."
"Oh yeah, this is gonna go great."
Kaylee's blue brocade jacket... I have a red one of a similar cut, I wore it when I testified before the MN state legislature's Committee on Aging and Long Term Care. Gave lots of confidence.
Patience... "Didn't she shoot you one time?"
"Everybody's making a fuss."
Mal sending Jayne away from the table for talking to and about Kaylee so crudely, now that's the opposite of bro culture.
So much happening so fast..."Let's see what a man like you would kill for.... huh."
"This is my sister....
Reavers....
Fuck you, Fox execs... this was a brilliant pilot, introducing the characters, the dynamics, and the conflicts.
"That's my girl, that's my good girl."
Love, love, love the friendship between Inara and Book. Love the Divine in both of them.
"We're still flying."
"That's not much."
"It's enough."
90 minute special! World Premiere! Exciting. Netflix is stuck at 25% loading. Grumble. OK, let's do this the old fashioned way, find the DVD's!
What's funny, is to see my business card from 2 jobs ago in the first DVD case, because I was loaning them out, to get people hooked.

We've done the impossible, that makes us mighty!
-----
When he shoots down the plane, and it crashes on him, it's foreshadowing of all his plans.
-----
I like how the sticky door looks like an exclamation point.
-----
I hate to say it. Blasphemy. But that opening scene? It is a bit dry. Needs moreā¦ something. Music? No real music. Aside from gunshots, not much in the way of sound/ambience. It feels flat. Compared to the "six months later". That great slide guitar. Depth to the visuals, better lighting (even in the dark scenes).

Cry baby cry,
make your mother sigh
Beatles!!!! in the future!!!
-----
Let's moon them.
-----
They are rabbiting (I say that every time there is a runner in a procedural show! Ha, maybe this is where I got it from!!)
-----
Gosh, I haven't heard that theme music in a long time. Love it.
-----
We're crooks, if everything was all right, we'd be in jail.
-----
The apple peeler cracks me up. No clue why.
-----
I hope those strawberries didn't come from Trader Joe's
-----
The umbrella is hypnotizing.
-----
Poor Book, everyone calling him Grandpa.
-----
Medical supplies. Had to go with that one, with a doctor on board. D'oh!
-----
If those lil dimples don't make you wanna eat strawberries, I dunno what will.
-----
I dunno why, but I really love the fold-back toilet and slide out sink. Space saving and cool. Needs a cleaning. And don't want to think about where the waste goes when he folds it up.
-----
How many of the passengers are in the cargo hold against the rules!?!
-----
"The Doctor? Oh! ... Is there a reward?"
-----
Noo!!!! don't shoot Kaylee!!!!
-----
Are you asking me to dance?
-----
I didn't remember the teddy bear patch on Kaylee's pants. Adorable.
-----
Mal's "huh" after opening the crate.
-----
"I can see your not an idiot." Ha!
-----
The waiting scene as the reavers pass. All the little vignettes, show small insights into each character.
-----
Golly, there is so much in this first episode!!! I get why the opening war part is in the show. It sets up Mal & Zoe and their hate of the alliance. I wish it was cut up into flashbacks instead. Then the lack of background audio, and flat lighting would make more sense, help it stand out. Aside from that, it's such a great episode!!
-----
We are lost in the woods.
-----
The man is psychotic!
-----
Zoe's out on a deal, I always worry, so, it's not out of my way.
-----
You're right about this being a bad idea.
Thanks for saying, sir.
-----
The way Zoe always calls Mal "Sir" reminds me of Marcie from "Peanuts", always calling Peppermint Patty "Sir".
-----
That's my girl. That's my good girl.
-----
Work work work.
-----
I think I'm on the wrong ship.
Maybe. Or maybe your exactly where you ought to be..
(and the silhouette reverse absolution shot).

Lookin' for the like button, omnis.
I had to edit. The formatting chopped half my post. Yikes! There is more. Re-read the post.
