Now that I think about it...yeah...just our Captain is different. I mean he acts different regarding how he lets crew members talk to him. (and punch him in the mouth in Simon's case) But he is the same in regards to his love for his ship and crew, and his disdain for the Allaince and fear of the Reavers

I wish i could. I can give you a very general accounht of the story. But I have tried myself to think back from beginning to end and I cant do it. I wish i could but my memory tends to be sporadic..lol.

Lets see, the story revolves around River. The Operatives after her, and it answers why they want her back. The crews quest of finding that out winds up accedentally taking them to the Reaver home world. A world were they were accidentally created by the inhabitants. See the population was trying to be controlled by an airborn additive (or pill cant remember) and it went very wrong. It was supposed to supress violent impulses, and instead it either made people so non-caring they simply died where they sat, or the complete opposite were they became...well Reavers.

It is a complicated story where the Allaince and the Reavers are after them. But they visit and pick up Inara and visit Book before and after the Reavers attack which killed him. Ultimately they are able to use this under-ground type of guy to transmit proof that the Reavers exist and make piece with The Allaince. If I remember correctly the Operative tells the Allaince army not to kill River (who was cornered)dont remember exactly how...but if memory serves the Allaince is no longer after River. All kinda foggy which bugs me. I guess I'll have to watch it again in September..lol

Thanks for the Q & A session. The pure spoiler junkie in me has to know -- how exactly (to the best of your knowledge) do Book and Wash die?

And it may be out of character for Mal, but I like the idea of Simon getting some "punching" revenge.

Do you remember why Inara came back on board Serenity after she left? You say they "picked" Inara up, but they must have a lot of reason for her to come back right?

One, I can see, but both of 'em?


Too many questions arise... I'm gonna make like it's not true.

There, all better!

When Serenity chrashes down on the planet where the Communications guy is, a long wooden pole breaks off from the building they crashed into and impales Wash right through his chest in the pilot chair. You would'nt of seen it coming. And because they were running for there lives they had one second to mourn him and then they were off and running.

Book's little town he lived in was hit by the Allaince when they were following Rivers trail. Book shot down a ship and he was lying in the dirt dying when Mal found him. I thought that Simon would save him somehow, but while Simon was getting his medical suppies he dies in Mals arms.

They went to go visit Inara for some information/help she could give them. Dont remember exactly, but the Operative shows up while they are there. During the fight with him. she saves Mals ass and they flee to the ship. She kinda had to go, but at the end she tells Mal that she will be staying and he replies something like "good answer" or something close.

Darn. I like Mal the way he was in the series.
Nathan mentioned in an interview that Mal was given a "love interest". Would that be Inara? Is the UST still there?

Well, I guess even if Book's dead I still think Joss can find a creative and original way to tell Book's past though (maybe a flashback, or something else)
Meltingman, were there any inside jokes for the Firefly fans in the movie? And do we see Zoe dealing with the death of Wash in the movie?
