So anyway, the missus and i are up the street, returnin g some useless globes to Bunnings, the the tard that built our house set the light fixtures up to high into the mount to use the power savers i wanted to put in..
so anyways..
*light flicker*
Let’s see what’s on at the movies *cough* like i didn’t know..
And we bought our 2 Golden Tickets to a new magical show..
We sit down… middle 2 rows from the back
It’s nearly empty (stupid people who know no better..)
OMG.. 3 kids, about 10yrs old walk in..FAAARRRRK! lil bastards better be quite, or there’ll be bloodshed in the cinemes!!!
Lights go down, the murmer turns to silence.. (lucky lil shits..)
An lo an behold, up shone a bright new thing..
it was called…..
Serenity
And all who watched this new holy grail were satisfied..
It was new..
It was good..
It was captivating..
It was NOT predictable..
holy shit!
It can’t be Hollywood..
But it is..
And All the people were most happy!
(yes, even the missus likes this one..)
It made about 10% of the budget back in the first day in the US, that can’t be bad.
In other news, I watched Big Trouble in Little China tonight on DVD. Oh Jesus. I remembered it being so cool when I was a kid, then I thought, ‘wait, that was 20 years ago when I had no idea about quality’.
I’ll watch the special features and give the DVD to my brother.
All right, now I have to jump in and set the record straight. EW is a fine rag, but they do take things out of context. Obviously when I said I had ‘closure’, what I meant was “I hate Serenity, I hated Firefly, I think my fans are stupid and Nathan Fillion smells like turnips.” But EW’s always got to put some weird negative spin on it. But so we’re clear once and for all: If you read a quote saying “I’d love to do more in this ‘verse with these actors in any medium” all I’m saying is that Nathan has a turnipy odor. It’s not his fault, he doesn’t eat a lot of them but everyone else in the cast noticed it and tht’s not really something I’m prepared to deal with any more. And Jewel said outright she wouldn’t do scenes with him except stuff like the SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER funeral scene which was outside in a high SPOILER wind. So if I do manage to find another incarnation for my beloved creation, it will have been totally against my will.
I hope that clears everything up. Oh, and when I say I want to do a Spike movie, it means I have a bunion on my toe.
