1) I agree, Morena is a Goddess!

2) Jayne *hugging* his weapon and rocking back an forth on his feet in the background of the bridge as they fly through Reaver territory. We've seen how scared he is of reavers before, but here he looks to be on the ragged edge of panic, and he's sticking with his crew anyway.

3) Mal, after they've reaverized Serenity, as he walks through the walkways and into the side compartment, he touches every rail and door jam, and the slumps against the wall looking sick, as if he's asking Serenity to forgive him for what he's done to her, but he can't forgive himself.

I'm sure I'll think of lots more...

That shot during the final battle with the Operative where Mal falls face-first onto the floor. The angle, the lighting, the staging, and Mal’s expression were all a visual throwback to that famous shot from “Out of Gas.” In the first showing I went to, which had the highest proportion of Browncoats, we all laughed at that shot, because in a way it is triumphant. We’ve seen it before, we know that this is Mal’s lowest point--but we also know he’s going to pick himself up and finish the job. It was something only a Browncoat could get and it was great.

I liked the moment in the start of the film at the heist where River points out Mr. Hero to Zoe. That expression was choice.

My absolutely favorite silent moment was right as the doors open and you see river rampant and splendid, bloodied weapons, right as the wall falls. My God, Summer as River always had an appeal to her, but then all of a sudden she got a hotness to her, didn't she?

It also seemed to me the first time she didn't look all fancied up. Her hair is down, less make up- much prettier in my opinion. It seemed more in keeping w/ being part of the crew rather than a paying guest.

She understands, she doesn't comprehend

During the scene where the crew is on the bridge and Wash tells Zoe to show everyone what is between them and Miranda, Jayne is leaning against the back wall. Inara crosses in front of him to look at the monitor, and Jayne is totally checking her out. I laughed out loud because I hadn't noticed it previously...Thanks Adam!

BTW when the doors open and River is standing there disheveled with bloody weapons in her hands,did anybody else hear in their heads "In each geneneration there is born..."?

No matter what happens, they can't take this away from us.

I really loved River's expressions, and actions.

1)When she points out the hero during the heist, and Zoe wants to a confirmation on it, and River gives her that "duh" look, as if to say "well who else would it be"

2)When Simon says "Am I talking to Miranda now?" and she gives him that "Simon, I'm crazy, not dumb" sort of look.

3)When she talks about the "blood splat in the brain pan,squish" comment or however it goes, and it shows her putting agun to her head, just genious.

1) In the bar on Beaumonde, Mal and Jayne sit down with the twins. Four glasses are filled, and everyone grabs one. Mal and the brothers raise and click their glasses in a toast.

Meanwhile, Jayne just slugs down his shot.

2) After River's freakout in the bar, Jayne confronts Mal: "In earnest, Mal, why did you bring her back?" Mal and Zoe exchange a look -- just a few scenes before they'd been talking about Mal's actions during the Reaver attack, and how in the war they never left anyone behind. Seems Mal can never do anything right!

Alright, ill play, a couple things i too noticed....

First and foremost, i dont think there's a single person how wasn't in awe when those doors opened and River was there.....ahhhh...i just had to think about it for a moment....lol...ok to continue.

The other major thing i saw and loved was, well first some back round.....As much as i hate to say it, i didn't buy the Dvd's. :( i got them form a friend, another computer geek of mine, i know, i know :'( but now i think im going to buy them, its just that at that point i had never seen any of it, i dont have cable or a sat. so the only way i knew was my friend telling me they're totally awesome. So anyway he also gave me the Special Features, and if any one watched this entire 45 min thing, you'll find at the end Wash talks (not sure what his name is) and it has his application video or whatever you call it, that he sent to try and get the job, he plays the scene where wash is playing with dinos, awesome :) any way he also says the first time he got on the set and sat down in the piolet's seat he noticed 3 switches above head and to the right. And he says that every scene he had starting up Serenity the first thing he did was flip those switches.....now to the subtlties of Serenity, if you notice after they fix up the ship in the last scene, after Mal sits down to start up Serenity, the VERY FIRST THING HE DOES IS FLIP THOSE SWITCHES! I got goose bumps when i saw this, i can just see Mal saying "yea, Wash, your still here, i know it." AWESOME!
I had another one too....but after typing all that i can't remember, lol. anyway ill post if i remember....

The Pyro - 53r3n1ty'5 f'in /\w350m3! - go see the movie, buy the Dvd's; support folks!

There was one that I just noticed. And it kind of sucked. After the battle and the funeral when they're doing the whole repairing sequence Zoe is shown welding. And she's welding on the front of the bridge (you can see the dinosaurs behind her). I'm guessing that she's repairing the hole that the spear made on its way to Wash. When I realized where she was working I was like, "Crap. Why couldn't someone else have fixed that? Why'd it have to be Zoe?" I got sad all over again.
