Firefly Observations

[desoto_hia873]

Just a quickie as I reeeally need to get to bed:

Been watching Firefly again as a warm-up to the Big Damn Movie later this week (obligatory squeeee!). In Ariel, Jayne really was wearing a Blue Sun t-shirt when River slashed him with the knife - I didn't see that the first time around. And - same episode - when Wash and Kaylee are digging in the dump to get the parts they need for the 'ambulance', it looks like Wash picks up a coil compressor, shakes some sand out of it, and then hurls it away. Which, if that is in fact what it was, is a neat reference to the previous episode, Out of Gas.

Mal was my favourite character the first time through, but I must say that Jayne is giving him some competition this time. He just cracks me up. I'll get to see Adam Baldwin at SFX; I'm crossing my fingers that Nathan shows up at the screening on Thursday.

Oh yes - I'm turning Jim into a flan. Brought my DVDs down to Peterborough this weekend and we watched Serenity and The Train Job. Then he asked me to leave a couple of the DVDs behind so he could watch more eps before the BDM. :-)

You're turning Jim into an open-topped tart with a filling of custard, fruit, or cheese?

Hee! That does sound funny - I hadn't thought of it that way. Firefly fans really do call themselves flans. I'm expecting to see people in costume at the screening ('cause that's what all good nerds do, right?), but I'll bet no one shows up as an actual flan. :-)

A friend had a somewhat laboured plan to turn up to the 'Attack of the Clones' opening in outsized shoes and garish clothes with a painted face, red nose and frightwig, and stack of custard pies, but concluded no one would get it.

Hee! That took me a few seconds too.
