Actually the most dangerous three movies to make your connections from are

Gina Torres - Matrix Revolutions
Alan Tudyk - Dodgeball
Nathan Fillion - Blast from the past

Allow me to demonstrate just how lethal

Bevis & Butthead-Airheads-Brendan Frasier
Brendan Frasier-BlastFrom the Past-Nathan Fillion!

(blows away the smoke from the barrel of his gun)

you can get almost anywhere.

Plus if you use all the Cameos in Pauly Shore is Dead (a movie that is so wrong) you can connect almost anybody.

I don't remember the episode name. It was after Daisy joined up with them. The record shop where Mason is hitting on all the women. Jewel works there, she's really punked out. Finds the post-it and the rest is broom closet history.

I think I counted about 30 actors from firefly on various incarnations of CSI... Summer, Melinda Clarke & Gina notably on the Vegas show (including Gina tonight Jan 10th, on Spike), Adam & Sean on CSI: Miami... and various guest stars, too...

Connect Firefly to the new Battlestar Galactica:

Jewel Staite to Kandyse McClure (another of her Higher Ground co-stars).

Kandyse is Petty Officer Dualla (the bridge officer)

You can then use Battlestar Galactica to connect back to Star Trek.

Jewel to Kandyse
Kandyse to Richard Hatch (the original Apollo and soon-to-be guest star on the new Battlestar Galactica)

Richard Hatch to Dirk Benedict (the original Battlestar)

Dirk Benedict to Dwight Schulze (A-Team)

Dwight was Ensign/Lieutenant Barclay in Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager

BSG to FF? How about Firefly to Highlander?

But I like any list with Dwight Schultz in it. :-)

Okay. Not sure if this is the shortest.

Highlander: Sean Connery
The Russia House: Michelle Pfeiffer
Batman Returns: Andrew Bryniarski (Crow from TTJ)
Firefly

IMDB is a dangerous thing .


On a related note... Is the Firefly 'Verse all in Tommy Westphall's mind?!? Once you make the Law and Order connection it all falls into place . Sorry, couldn't resist bringing it back to a St. Elsewhere page I saw a while ago:

* editted to add: If you can get to Gene Hackman that just opens up a whole can of worms.

Word.


I'm not sure that counts, because Clinton didn't act in the movie "Contact"--it was just a clip from a press conference, and in fact, the Clinton camp made a stink about the clips being used in the film.

However:
Bill Clinton, "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" (with Jon Stewart)
Jon Stewart, "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" (with Eliza Dushku)
Eliza Dushku, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (with Nathan Fillion)
and of course Nathan Fillion, "Firefly/Serenity"

Just in case archival footage ins't allowed in this game.
