Gorth Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 I wasn't a fan of Buffy or Angel either, but Firefly is possibly my favorite show of all time. I didn't like Buffy, but after the first season, I really started liking Angel. I saw two episodes of Firefly and bought the one and only season from Amazon. Awesome. That and Lexx are the only sci-fi series I could be bothered to buy on DVD. :D “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Regular price 47.99, otherwise I never would have bought it. I thank HMV for having their erratic prices now. They're wierd, they have horrendously high prices for most of their stuff, but then you find the odd thing thats like 5-30 bucks cheaper than everywhere else. I bought the Godfather collection for 35 bucks when the next cheapest was Wal-Mart at $55. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

EnderAndrew Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Random note, but Joss Whedon recently said that he is not that interested in trying to get Firefly picked up again. He is done with TV and wants to focus on movies. Next up is Wonder Woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oerwinde Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 Just got back from Serenity. Awesome. Some parts pissed me off such as Wash dying , but it was all around a wicked movie. Lots of applause after the credits started to roll, and movies don't often get applause in my experience. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

Walsingham Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 bump I need sequels, or a revival of the show, so everyone needs to see this movie. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Damn straight, sir.

Commissar Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 (edited) Joss Whedon's the goon behind Buffy the Vampire Slayer on TV, isn't he? Sorry, but it's unlikely I'll be supporting your Firefly or Serenity or what have you. My freshman year of college, I dated a girl who just would not shut up about how great Joss Whedon is - her and her mother, actually - and I've since made the decision to avoid everything he ever does in the hopes that this will make him go somewhere and die. Edit: By the way, why would they even make this movie? If the series only ran for eleven episodes, that doesn't scream "big audience" to me, so aren't a lot of people going to be fairly lost? Second edit: What the hell kind of name is Joss Whedon, anyway? Sounds suspiciously pinko-commie to me. If he'd been named Mack Strong I'd consider it.

When it aired on Fox they aired it out of order and didn't even air the pilot, so no one knew what the hell was going on, on DVD, people were able to see the show as it really is, one of the best Sci-Fi shows ever made. As for people being lost, they do a good job of bringing people up to speed on whats going on and such, and in a way that people who already know whats going on aren't bored. Its a really well made film. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walsingham Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 Movies are where the money really is. But I think that if the film does well Whedon would be sorely tempted to start another series; maybe pass control over to Tim or Chaz Minear. If that doesn't work I say we do unto him as the mob did unto Sinatra. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe.

kumquatq3 Posted October 2, 2005 Author Share Posted October 2, 2005 It pulled in 4.2 million (est) on Friday for second place. It is losing to Flightplan at 4.4 million (est). It has a much better per screen average tho ($1,285 compared to $1,920 per screen (flightplan had 1300+ more screens, more than half of Serenitys total)) Look for sequel territory to be between 50 mill domestic or 80 worldwide. Also, of course, DVD dependent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oerwinde Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I'm thinking that this will do a lot better on DVD than it does in theaters. Which is a shame, because it really needs to be seen on the big screen. Hopefully word of mouth will get more people into it, because the consensus seems to be that the movie rocks.

LoneWolf16 Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I'm actually really interested in this flick...I liked the show, and was amazingly disappointed when Fox took it off the air...as I was just beginning to appreciate it. Hm, next time I'm out, I'll make sure to see it. I had thought that some of nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, for they imitated humanity so abominably. - Book of Counted Sorrows 'Cause I won't know the man that kills me and I don't know these men I kill but we all wind up on the same side 'cause ain't none of us doin' god's will. - Everlast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kor Qel Droma Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Apparantley Serenity took in just over 10 million dollars this weekend. It placed second behind the crappy Jodie Foster movie. Not a great debut, but for a TV show that was cancelled its not too shabby. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure79 Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I saw it yesterday. I haven't seen the TV show but the movie was enjoyable. It was pretty funny to boot. It probably would have been better to have seen the show first since I had a feeling that I was receiving a crash course on all the characters. They quickly grow on you though. They seem like real people trying to make some money when the sh*t hits the fan so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
