I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

A little waah for Book. But recovered pretty quickly, considering. Way bigger waaAAAAAAAh! for Wash; my previous guess had been that one one crew death was likely, two would be more of a surprise in a single movie.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

amych, there was plenty of WAAH! for Book when I first read of his demise, but it was eclipsed by the OMGWTFNONONONO!!!!!!!! for Wash.

One reason I don't mind being spoiled for HSQ moments in general is that it makes it easier to keep one eye on unspoiled friends' reactions to the HSQ. This can be highly entertaining.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Oh, god yes. I still remember the GILES!!!!!!! heard 'round the world.

Our wings are not tired.

I read the whitefont. Thank you Jen!!! I have the advantage of a horrible memory and will likely experience the HSQ despite the spoilage. Also, sobbing now.

Oh, yes indeedy. My one regret about Serenity being released in theaters rather than on TV is that there won't be a watch'n'post.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Huh, managed to make it two hours, but read both the HSQ spoilers from later, so I figured it wasn't going to make a difference.

Damn, now we'll never get Book's backstory.

I know it, Frank. And he was always my favorite . Or my favorite who was not Mal or Jayne or Zoe or Wash or Kaylee or dammit I love them all. Maybe even Inara, sometimes.

Oh, I read somewhere else that there WAS sound in space. Is that the case?

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

It really does not sound like Joss plans this to be a series of movies; that is really tying up all the loose ends. BTW, as this is supposed to be a hardcore spoiler section, do we really need to go on whitefonting? Can we just make a note that if you don't want to be spoiled, don't scroll past this post in the HARDCORE SPOILER thread?
