Firefly and Serenity

[Angrist]

This night I saw Serenity and I have to say: It was the best movie surprise ever.

I thought this movie would be an average action movie, but it turned out to become 1 of my all-time favorites.
What do I love about it? It's not the action, though the action is good. It's not the special effects, even though they're awesome. So I guess it's the acting and the story. And the characters. All characters are brilliant, as is the performance of the actors.
The atmosphere and interaction between characters reminded me of the first 2 Alien movies, which is good.

I guess I'll have to watch Firefly!! And pray for another movie of this kind. Not a direct sequel, because that won't work.

I watched the series and movie over the span of two days this past summer. Good stuff. I didn't care for the movie as a cap for the show though.

***POSSIBLE SPOILER WARNING FOR SERENITY***


the serenity that you're all talking about is the movie with the girl who can't remember things and then she remembers a lot of things on the dead world...thing?

***END POSSIBLE SPOILER***


if so, then that movie kicked ass! although a lot of people i know found it confusing.

Very very doubtful. The movie didn't do well in theatres, and Joss Whedon, the guy who created the universe and all, is going to do a few more things before he even thinks about doing anything more in the 'Verse.

Nah, the movie wasn't nearly as good as the original show.

Awesome, then I'll have a great show ahead of me.

Today I found out that the movie uses the same characters as the series, how cool is that..... Maybe I should buy the DVD to boost sales and hope for a new season.

What I loved is that all characters are cool, there's not 1 annoying guy or 1 you don't care for.
