No, it's not just you, Jesse. It's a beautiful and poignant poster.
And Cinna is ROCKING it.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I need to start thinking about how that movie probably won't be that good, because I am the WORST with too-high expectations. I mostly only like movies I think will be "just OK." If I think they will be great, I'm almost always disappointed.
Serenity, I'm looking straight at you.

Because books.
Oh, Cinna. Very nice.
I loved the books so much, the movies just seem like an awesome extra. So if they're halfway decent, I'll be happy. I felt the same way about the Harry Potter movies.

I think the movie is going to break me.

It had fucking well better break me. I am definitely seeing this on my own, so I can cry like a baby.

Because books.
The books broke me so hard already, I'm not sure the movies can do better. Although the visuals of Rue are going to be tough.

I think, at worst, the movies will remind me of the books and then break me. If they can't do that, they definitely suck.
