So, yeah. I got really hooked on Firefly. My friend (kisses to Ken) gave me the DVD set of the series which had been mangled and abused by the Evil Pencil Pushers™ at Fox. Outstanding stuff. Really. Best science fiction since Star Trek. Rough-edged, witty, space guys-meet-Old West-meet-pirates-meet-Joss Whedon, boy genius. Just too good.
The movie follow-up, Serenity, opens wide Friday. See it. Reviews are coming in pretty darn strong.
Why should I be advertising this thing when I don’t get a dime out of it? Well first, just to spread the word, share the candy, all that. Second, because I am SO EXCITED about seeing it. Finally, because I want it to succeed so well that “sequel” is the watchword around Universal.
