I think you might be confusing the Guardians of the Galaxy with the Starjammers, Hec.
You're totally right.
I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ha, I knew you were talking about the Starjammers, but I thought they hung out with the Guardians in the comics or something (see above re: only watching the cartoon).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Back in the 70s, Marvel was on the verge of going out of business, and they had an inkling that Space Opera was going to be big, so they kept creating stuff and throwing it against the wall, and seeing if it would stick. (Including a very bizarre adapation of 2001: A Space Odyssey). They finally hit paydirt when they got the license to adapt Star Wars, which pretty much saved the company single-handedly.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
That tagline, oh my God.
It's wunderbar. The only problem is it'll be hard to live up to it.
Now I want to see a remake of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" strictly for the tagline: Because wine.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
My kids have that blooper reel memorized including the sound effects.

My reaction to the GtoG poster: "OK, tank, ranged DPS, ranged DPS, melee DPS.....so the guy on the left is the healer?"

Oh, shit. Groundhog Day is my default favorite movie of all time.
