you wouldn't like it curval... the characters are self reliant and use firearms to defend themselves and others and......  The government are the bad guys.

well.... so was 9/11 and people said it was well done but I don't want to see it.   I don't go to chick fliks either or depressing movies.  sooo... I just assumed this wouldn't be your cup of tea... glorifying self reliance and the firearm and all.

I haven't seen 9/11 and I will not watch chick flicks either.  But I like a good fantasy movie.

Sounds like this particular one is pretty good.  Swoop likes it, I'm sure I would too.

Yeah, self-reliant with an evil government that "interferes with and ignores people equally", supporting and promoting a laissez-faire capitalistic system that ruthlessly exploits the many for the benefit of the few.

Anyway, it's a cool show, and well worth owning the DVDs. Fox really had half-assed support from the beginning. The friday-night slot wasn't good; and the suits seem to have thought they'd be getting something a little more star trek.

The movie "serenity" is scheduled for US release next March.

My sister had an interesting theory about the preacher, with his obvious military backround and all.  That in season three that crew was going to find out that he was the General in command of Alliance forces that the Battle of Serentity!!  Dun-dun-da!!!  :eek:


...which would have been totally cool.
