New International Serenity Trailer Released
Tenken writes "The international Serenity trailer has just popped up online and it looks to be even shinier than the first. This new trailer doesn't really spell out the plot of the film as explicitly as the first one, but for that reason it may play better with fans. Chiwetel Ejiofor's "Operative" character is also shaping up to be one of those memorable Whedon villains along the lines of Jubal Early from the episode "Objects in Space.""
I got to 35%, when everyone else here on /. noticed the trailer too...and my work has Bittorrent blocked...
*sigh*, so, here I am, downloading at a whopping 5k/s.
Of all the days to stop taking methamphetamines...
Early: "You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?"
Simon: "What'd he do?"
Early: "Who?"
Simon: "The midget."
Early: "Arson. Little man loved fire."
Setting: Nice, calm and serene office for United International Pictures in the Netherlands.
Premise: Evil technocrat (Taco) unleashes hordes of his minions on the poor defenseless webserver.
Yes. Yes, you are.
Zoe: "You paid money for this, sir? On purpose?"
Mal: "What? Come on, seriously, Zoe. Whaddya think?"
Zoe: "Honestly, sir? I think you got robbed."
Mal: "Robbed? What? No. What do you mean?"
Zoe: "It's a piece of fei-oo." [fei-oo. = junk]
Mal: "Fei-oo? Okay, she won't be winning any beauty contests anytime soon.
But she's solid. Ship like this, be with ya 'til the day you die."
Zoe: "Cause it's a deathtrap."
Point of interest. Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.
Zoe: "Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing?
Book: "Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps."

blarg.
in the local cineplex does not mean that you work in the film industry.
Thinking of a certain movie you are, hm?
They recommend Star Wars Episode I - The Phantom Menace if you're ending up liking this movie.
:-) ( or maybe the question should be frased -- how the algorithm doesn't work ;-) )
Wow...
Hmm, I wonder how that algorithm works anyway, if it's automated.

actually it's even better than that:

Jayne always had some great lines (actually everyone did)
another good jayne quote:
Mal: Can't get paid if you're dead.
Jayne: Can't get paid if you crawl away like a bitty little bug neither. I got a share of this job. Ten percent of nothin' is, let me do the math here... nothin' into nothin', carry the nothin'...
I think the Bible would have been a lot more interesting with Jesus talking about how quickly the human body can be drained of blood given adequate vacuuming systems, claiming that he's a ship, speaking incoherently, and threatening to kill people with his brain.
What do you think is written in those secret books of the Bible kept in the vaults in the Vatican?
In the Gospel of Vernon, threats of killing them with his brain was how Jesus got the money-changers out of the temple. And he mentioned the blood/vacuum thing as sort of an aside at the Last Supper, but the published Gospel writers chose to leave that part out.
