It totally kind of works, how bizarre.
Hah! You've seen Javier's takedown of Joss on Firefly/Alien Resurrection? Same algebra.
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

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.

Wasn't that one somewhat intentional? It was like the next thing he did, like AR was a test run for FF. This is years later, and I feel like it's unintentional, and it's a funny look into the way writers return to wells.

I'm not sure it was. I think those were his toys in that space opera toy chest.

It's kind of like how I keep writing "The Bow" over and over again. I have half a dozen stories about the relationship between a woman and a sentient non-human. Usually I don't even realize I'm doing it, though I've become hyperaware of it now and the last one I did totally on purpose.

You realize what that means, of course.

I have been trying to figure it out and my most recent explanation is that I consider myself a sentient non-human.

Mmmmhmmmm. But note that it's specifically in relation to women.

(I'm not being particularly serious here! I'm not that obnoxious. Every writer has his own pet themes they play with.)

Well I do like women. I would like to have a sentient non-human relationship with a woman. Wait.

Writer brain is weird!
