Serenity Opens Today

Posted by Zonk on from the try-to-kill-them-right-back dept.

joemite writes "As every Browncoat knows, Serenity, the motion picture based on the Firefly series opened today. For the uninitiated, Serenity is based on the short-lived Fox television show Firefly (created by Joss Whedon, [Buffy the Vampire Slayer]), which follows a group of outlaws in a unique space-western universe. While there are no aliens or temporal anomalies, the stage is set for our group of heros to out-wit and out-strategize the giant and evil Alliance. Go out and watch the movie this weekend and see why the Firefly series is an Amazon.com best seller." If you're on the fence, reviews available at SFGate, Wired, the Seattle Times, and IGN.

    "Go out and watch the movie this weekend "

    And support all those MPAA lawsuits you keep hearing about on Slashdot! Nothing gets people to stop what they're doing by giving them more money!

    I'd like to see the movie. I'd really like to see the movie. But I'm not supporting an MPAA member. I haven't even bought the Firefly DVDs for the same reason.

    If you're pissed at somebody, y'all should try showing it for once.

    Ideally, freedom is freedom. Socialism (or any of its leftists variants propped up by control freaks) is as far away from freedom as you can get!

    Freedom to let people starve.
    Freedom to raze the environment for short-term profit.
    Freedom to let people without care when they need it and can't afford it.

    Those are the kinds of freedoms that the left want to do away with.

    I did see it. Have you ever seen 'A Clockwork Orange'? Probably not, or you'd have a whole different standard for how that kind of scene can be written and acted. This sort of thing is not new or unique. 'A Clockwork Orange' is probably older than you are.

    If you can't win any other way personal attacks allways work right?


    You're a jackass. That's a personal attack. His logic sucks. That's a statement of fact. Do you see the difference between the two, or should I draw a pretty picture?
