Firefly/Serenity - Discuss

[xanthein]

Dunno if many people are aware of this TV/film sci-fi, but I'm a huge fan and would like to bring it to the attention of everyone here!

Firefly was great, but it got cancelled before the end of the first season. Typical Fox network

The film Serenity was done to (sort of) wrap it up. It's all ace, and I strongly recomend it to veryone here.

You can read all about it here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefly_tv

It's got some great touches, like camera shake on cgi parts, and NO SOUND in the space shots.

Here's a trailer for the second episode - uk.youtube.com/watch?v=-X_RMZCLrjU

And one of my favourite scenes - uk.youtube.com/watch?v=k6Mwc3Ip9bI


Should anyone be interested in buying it, here's the TV series - www.amazon.co.uk/Firefly-Complete-Nathan-Fillion/dp/B0001B3YTM/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/026-5758886-1485238?ie=UTF8&s=dvd& qid=1187999465&sr=8-1

and here's teh film, although there is a 2 disc version coming out soon - www.amazon.co.uk/Serenity-Nathan-Fillion/dp/B000BLJGBC/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2/026-5758886-1485238?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1187 999465&sr=8-2

Yay! Cool! Yeah, the double disc version should be out now, so get that one if you're into extras. But watch Firefly first if you get the chance, as it comes before the film

I love the Sci-Fi channel! It's my favorite, they play the illest stuff. Right now Im watching a mini series and it's amazing.
Sci-Fi=Love!

Buy anyway lol I saw a bit of Firefly on there and it was very good. ;D

[xanthein]

Yay! It is awesome

Saw No Country For Old Men the other day, which seems totally suited to HB's sound....desolate, dry landscapes...dusty back roads...unfamiliar territory...dangerous strangers....it all seemed to fit in with the atmosphere of their music.

Cool! Please do! I do prefer the TV series however. Maybe it's because there's more of it???

lol actually watching Firefly atm - my ex got me to see the pilot and Serenity (good film cannot remember a bit of it but I'll re watch when Im done with the show).

Love the cast even if I've never heard of half of them before - was drawn to it as I'm a huuuge Buffy/Angel fan and being that Nathan Fillion (the evil Caleb in Buffy Series 7), Gina Torres (Jasmine in Series 4 of Angel) and Adam Baldwin (another darn evil guy Marcus Hamilton in Series 5 Angel) had made appearances in Whedon's previous creations.

Having gotten Serenity for my birthday from a work colleague its just great - I think you can watch it as a stand alone film but you do miss out on all the detail about the character's histories and their relationships with each other.
