| Serenity Set about six months after the last events seen on the TV show. Whedon says, "The movie is bigger, more epic than anything you can do in a series." |

| Re: Serenity I didn't see serenity despite the great reviews and things I'd heard because I hadn't seen Firefly and I like to see things in order. If I'd have known how good the whole idea is, I'd have made more effort! |

I only saw a few episodes of Firefly before watching the movie. The movie is done in a way that you'll be able to understand and enjoy it with or without watching the series. | |

Or have you seen Firefly yet? Have you posted earlier about what you thought about the movie and TV show and if you think it mattered what you saw first? Edit: I didn't see it in the theaters either. But the DVD is a cool experience too. I love all the extras. The bloopers and deleted scenes where so worth watching. In fact the movie DVD was probably one of the best I've scene in terms of extras (not that I buy many movie DVD's, but I've seen enough to get the impression that most don't go out of there way to add so much high quality content). | |

| Re: Serenity I recorded this the other night, because I vaguely remembered seeing Jonathon Ross going ape for it a couple of years ago on Film2005. I was so glad I did! I haven't seen Firefly, although I'm going to be looking it up now... This film, however, was fun, engaging, involving, and had the advantage of making my hubby fall asleep, so I didn't have to put up with 'what's happening?' every five mins! There were some intuition gaps, where I was filling in back-story, I think I got it right. I also found Kaylee incredibly irritating, and twee. But on the whole, it rocked, ticked all my boxes, floated my boat. I've asked for it for Crimbo! |

| Re: Serenity There are dvd for Firefly you can buy. Be sure to see the tv show. The movie was good but the series was great. Looking at your av i think you will enjoy the series, River is much more interesting there than just being the uber "buffy" type girl in the movie. |

| Re: Serenity So this didn't do well at box office? Odd, it's a way cool film. Some glitches...but not more so than Star Wars or many of the scifi blockbusters. I rented it twice in the same week. It has some really powerful moments. Didn't see the TV series..but noticed that some of the other moments--especially between the lead male and his "Indian" girlfriend had a sort of "Hercules TV" feel about them. I don't understand why this wouldn't have been big with viewers. Was it launched against some 900 pound gorilla? Badly promoted? |
