    But Inara's weapon was something that was introduced in the film. Pretty nifty, eh?

      How exactly do you pronnouce Chiwetel Ejiofor's name? I have a fair idea but is it

      Chew-it-tell Edge-ju-for or Chew-it-tell Edge-jewel-for?

        Oh, and by the way.... what's with the antique-looking weapons the crew of the Serenity have??? Some of it looked sort-of high tech, other pieces, like the Capt'n's pistol, sure as heck DIDN'T!

        Is there a reason for that, or was it just the way Whedon did the series, and carried it across to the movie...?

        I've just watched the series (havn't seen the film yet) and one of things that stood out to me were the weapons as well Seems that Whedon had no qualms about taking real-world Earth weapons and not even bothering to try and 'alien' them up, which I thought was a rather novel way of doing it. Ak-47's, Uzi's, MP5's, .50 cal Desert Eagles and a whole heap of shotguns and revolvers. I also notice BSG does that to an extent as well (though they tend to go for more obscure weapons, otherwise they 'alien' them up as well)

          Would you be able to answer the question, 'Why in Australia is Firefly aired so late?'
          Firefly is usually on way past my bedtime, and some episodes have started at 12:30am!
          It frustrates me.

            Because its a sci fi and the free to air channels in Aus suck and would rather put crappy reality shows on instead?

              You are right on the money Agent Dark.
              Channel 7 here in Australia has the best Sci-Fi shows but they just consider them as jaffa excrement.

                    I *hate* Aussie free-to-air networks. They promote piracy.
                    However, FOX8 on Austar and Foxtel have been airing Firefly at 8:30 on...some night, I forget which. They've been airing it one episode per week since the BDM opened.

                              I want MORE serentity dagnamnit!!!! Stupid gippy bast.ards!
                              Vows are spoken
                              To be broken
                              Feelings are intense
                              Words are trivial
                              Pleasures remain
                              So does the pain
                              Words are meaningless
                              And forgettable

                              All I ever wanted
                              All I ever needed
                              Is here in my arms
                              Words are very unnecessary
                              They can only do harm

                                Does anyone know if there's any sort of Firefly/Serenity music video listing? I have some I'd like to share and I'd really like to see works by others!!
