Firefly Appreciation #8: Because no power in the 'verse can stop us. (Scheduled Rewatch: Bushwhacked, Sat. 10/8)
WELCOME TO THE 8TH FIREFLY APPRECIATION THREAD! Quote:
Browncoats: Soleya Andie s e r e n i t y Avatar CrashandBurn9 Ron_Cullen Chris Shay-La
Reasons we love Firefly "Earth-that-was could no longer sustain our numbers, we were so many. We found a new solar system - dozens of planets and hundreds of moons. Each one terraformed - a process taking decades, to support human life, to be new earths. The Central Planets formed the Alliance. Ruled by an interplanetary parliament, the Alliance was a beacon of civilization. The savage outer planets were not so enlightened and refused Alliance control. The war was devastating, but the Alliance's victory over the Independents insured a safer universe. And now everyone can enjoy the comfort, and enlightenment of true civilization." “I felt like we made it to the top of the mountain when people kept pushing us down. The fact that we made this movie, a complete, amazing, beautiful movie… it feels like we won already. If it doesn’t become a mainstream success and people don’t get it, I feel like it’s their loss, because it’s a very special, special story. I hope we get to make more.” -Summer Glau
Malcom Reynolds "...We've done the impossible, and that makes us mighty."
Inara Serra
River Tam Top 3 Scenes Kaylee Frye "I don't believe there's a power in the 'verse can stop Kaylee from bein' cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct-tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month." Top 3 Scenes - Flashback introduction on how she ended up on Serenity (Out of Gas) Jayne Cobb "You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here." Top 3 Scenes - Presenting "Vera" to Mal (Our Mrs Reynolds) Simon Tam "That young man is very brave. He gave up everything to free his sister from that place. Go from being a doctor on the central planets to hiding on the fringes of the system...There is not many who could do that." Top 3 Scenes - "This must be what going mad feels like" (Jaynestown) Derrial Book "I've been out of the abbey two days. I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong. I believe…I just…I think I'm on the wrong ship." Top 3 Scenes - Talking about a very special hell, one reserved for child-molestors, and people who talk at the theater (Our Mrs Reynolds) Hoban Washburne "I am a leaf on the wind…" Top 3 Scenes - Playing with the dinosaurs (Pilot) Zoë Alleyne Washburne "She's torn up plenty, but she'll fly true." Top 3 Scenes - "She's torn up plenty but she'll fly true" (Serenity) Some fan sites: FireflyFans.net Browncoats.com ***************** http://www.fanforum.com/f118/firefly...episodes-9786/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/firefly...l-flyin-28118/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/firefly...ndig-62786012/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/firefly...last-62822885/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/firefly...nity-62936724/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/firefly...guys-62968193/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/firefly...have-62983288/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/serenit...firefly-16645/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/serenit...we-want-42025/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/serenit...n-movie-48292/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/serenit...here-we-54276/ http://www.fanforum.com/f118/serenit...my-turn-63375/ __________________

TFTNT. Oh and can I be added to the Browncoats list?
I especially love the title. I find myself using the term 'verse' a lot latey. I'm not religious so using the term 'God' doesn't sit well with me and calling God 'nature' all the time doesn't work either but for some reason 'verse' seems perfect. Plus it sounds much better than 'thank the universe'- yeah 'thank the 'verse'' sounds way better. __________________

I'll add you. I'll have a look around to see if I can find the old threads too...
I like the saying too - have used it a few times when I've done something clever. __________________

You're welcome, Nad.
I added the old threads (and some Serenity-threads as well) to the opening post. __________________

Very nice work on the opening post.
Nice gif Soleya! Now he needs someone to snuggle in for him to put his arms around ... oh, can I be on the Browncoats list? __________________

My favorite part of the OP is that picture of River in the end where it says Joss Whedon, I love that cap.
I'm a big fan of that gif, I could watch it all day and never get bored. |

That was such a funny Mal moment. And he didn't care if he was in the nude. Can I snuggle?
