Drake 53 Posted October 13, 2005 So did anyone watch the show? I was a fan of it and watched before Fox cancelled it...the assclowns. Anyway, I'll probably buy the season on DVD. So...did anyone see the movie? If you havn't...what's wrong with you? Hehe, j/k. Serenity is a truely brilliant film. I've heard it said that it's "The new Star Wars"...and that was said by a Star Wars fan. I agree with them. I've seen it three times and it's just as good the third time as it is the first. The story is excellent. The characters are talented and funny. The camera work is astounding. And the CG effects are awesome. Guys...if anything, go to see the space battle at the end. It looks so real. Not only that but it's realistic too. If not that, then go to see a 17 year old girl beat the sith out of a horde of bad guys. That was extreme... Anyway, now that I've flooded this topic with adjectives...GO SEE THE MOVIE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted October 13, 2005 Nope, not yet. But it's good to have another opinion. I'd like to see the movie, but I was told it was better to watch Firefly first, so I would get everything. But then a guy at work told me that it didn't matter and to just go see the movie. What would you recommend? I have easy access to the Firefly DVD's.... (my cousin loaned them to my dad a while back...). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drake 53 Posted October 13, 2005 It really doesn't matter either way. I would actually recommend seeing the movie first because it was more written for the newcomers instead of the series fans. The first 15 minutes of the movie wraps everything up in a neat little package anyhow, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ana 15 Posted October 14, 2005 Seen the movie twice. Love it. Need to see it again. Never saw the TV show, but I've ordered the DVDs and they should arrive anyday now. "New Star Wars" is a pretty good summary of it. ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted October 14, 2005 Isn't that, like, blasphemy or something? :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drake 53 Posted October 14, 2005 (edited) Isn't that, like, blasphemy or something? Not if it's the truth. Well...to get more specific, I'd say it's what the Millenium Falcon would be like if it had a crew of 8 and half of them were Han Solo. :p Edited October 14, 2005 by Drake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E-wing 3 Posted February 7, 2006 I love firefly and the moive baced on it but i think it fundmentaly differant then star wars Star Wars is a classic fantasy (old wizards, black kinghts, chaming rogues, caputerd prinsses, and simple farmboys with untaped powers) in a sci-fi backround Firefly is more of classic western (noble outlaws with a past, living buy the way of the gun, hi class hores that are sercitly in love with the main character) in a sci-fi backround Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mara 29 Posted March 6, 2006 (edited) My cousin has it.. Or I'm sure I could get it for a $1 at the library. Edited March 6, 2006 by Mara Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorSec 5 Posted July 15, 2008 My dad bought Serenity the other day. Saw it for the first time. We bought Firefly shortly afterwards, and we're working through it. Definitely worth seeing more of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
