Serenity: Post-Movie Discussion (SPOILERS)

[Elite Anubis Guard]

Ok, I just got in from seeing the film and wow. It was awesome.Very surprised about him killing off Wash and Book and quite disappointed that Wash really got killed. I thought it was excellent written and it was nice to see the mystery of the Reavers told. The production design was fabulous, as was the score and it was nicely directed.

[Nightingale]

I just found my ticket for Serenity so that I can treasure it always LOL (I'm the kinda person who does stupid things like that) and I have persuaded all of my friends to go see the movie! YAY I'm going to go see it again!

[White Knight]

I keep my ticket stubs in the flip-out section of my wallet.

[Elite Anubis Guard]

I shall definetly be going to see this again.

[LMichelle]

"Start with the part where Jayne gets knocked out by a 90 pound girl cause that never gets old."

"So he beat up Mal? That ain't so hard to do."

"Can make a suggestion that doesn't involve violence or is this the wrong crowd?"



Those were the funniest lines. I think I was the only one who laughed. What's wrong with people?

[Nightingale]

Mal: Define interesting.

Wash: Oh God, oh God, we're all gonna die?



Mal: We may experience some turbulence and then... explode.

Ahhh classic moments.

I saw this again this weekend, and there were quite a few things I missed from the first viewing, including how Kaylee's video about Inara shows River sniffing the bed. ;D

Memorable lines:
I think I swallowed a bug.

Is he ok!? (Mal to Kaylee)

Did you see us fight?
No.
Trap!

If anything happens to me, you take this ship and you come and rescue me.

Favorite line: I aim to misbehave.

[CatGoddess]

Just saw it today. Very well done.

Wash and Book died... I know from Buffy that Joss Whedon is not averse to killing off characters, including main characters. It still took me by surprise that not one, but two main characters died.

[Brigadier General Pants]

I heard they made it on a budget of 60 million. I was a little disappointed by the episodic feel of the movie, but considering the financial limitations, I say well done Mr Whedon.

[Blue Banrigh]

50 million.

Anybody else notice the little continuity error with Inara's weapon? I only picked it up fourth time around, but she switches back and forth between a bow and the automated bow/gun.

[Easter Lily]

Is that a continuity error or is that an extra attachment?

[rosewood]

Boxofficemojo.com lists the film's budget at $39 million.

[Brigadier General Pants]

Boxofficemojo.com lists the film's budget at $39 million.

Well, increase my kudos to Mr Whedon. What can one buy for 39 million? Probably a hotdog and not much loose change.

[Blue Banrigh]

Is that a continuity error or is that an extra attachment?

Definately is a different weapon.

[Mr Prophet]

I didn't cry at Books death (but then I never really liked him on Firefly) but I was getting teary eye when Wash got stabbed and also when River was crying out about the people on the planet, and speaking all that chinese stuff.

I saw Book's death coming as soon as it was clear he'd left the ship, but Wash was right out of left field and so sudden. I was almost as much in denial as Zoe, but it was just so clear that he was irretrievably dead and...Yeah, I got a little misty eyed.

[BlueCat...Gater]

I just saw Serenity tonight and it was amazing! I always liked Joss Whedon's stuff and this was no exception. I'll be seeing this one again. Now I'm just waiting for Underworld Evolution to come out

[White Knight]

Serenity is definatly a film that warrents multiple viewings. The first time I saw it, I was in shock for half the film. The second time, I was able to pick up the dialogue I missed the first time. The third time, I was able to appreciate all the nuances of detail. Its a great movie.

[Kensterman]

I've never watched any of the Firefly episdoes before, but I went to see Serenity yesterday, and yes, it was good!!! It might have been more enriching though if I had watched the series prior, so that I could have a feel of the characters. I guess I'll have to do a post-catchup by watching the DVDs that were released a few weeks ago of all 13 episodes and then watch Serenity again

Man that River can really kick some Reaper butt!

[Madeleine]

I saw it for the second time last night.

The Operative is a fantastic character. You really do get that sense of belief. I hope we don't see him again though, cos I really liked his last lines, where he said that Mal wouldn't.

The most powerful bit was surely the bit in the corridor, after Jayne had thrown his last grenade, and then after River had left. Everyone really looking like they were about to follow poor Wash, it was breaking my heart even though I knew they wouldn't.

[Morbo]

Just FINALLY saw it tonight.
Wow.
SO AWESOME.
SO VERY AWESOME.
