6. Mal actually knows what love is....it's just misplaced
7. Reavers are REALLY scary
8. Joss is a God.

1. Don't expect your private wave to stay private for long aboard Serenity.
2. There are dozens of planets and hundreds of moons.
3. A tramp steamer in space isn't the best place to have a nice, stable marriage.
4. Just believe. Whatever you have to.
5. It's possible to have a nerve cluster moved. And that can be a good thing.
6. Maybe we lost the war because we never left anyone behind.
7. We still don't leave anyone behind.
8. Mostly.
9. The Alliance meddles.
10. "A world without sin" isn't the best model of Utopia.

I'll rape you to death.
I'll eat your flesh.
I'll sew your skin into my clothes.
If you're very very lucky, I'll do it in that order - TheReaver

I'm all for the funny, and these lists are great, but I'd like to take a moment to contemplate this.

Perfectly stated.

Thanks.

As much funny as the movie was, there was a surprise crunchy layer of serious that was hard to miss.

1. Falling on a sword is considered a "good death".
2. An Alliance sprinkler head can support at least some of the weight of a teenage girl.
3. Mal doesn't kill children, but Operatives do.
4. Don't get poetic if you're wearing a Hawaiian shirt.
5. If you're getting your butt kicked, yell out "Eta kuram na smekh".
6. Batteries truly are a girl's best friend...
7. If you see one ship coming out of a cosmic dust cloud, you can figure there are more behind it.
8. Stopping the signal? Easy. Getting to the back up signal? Hard.
9. If you're the last person getting out of your shot down starship, be a LOT more quiet.
10. Controlling a planet with a funky gas is a really really bad idea.

10)- A 90 pound girl can bring down a any muscular man with the right grip in the right place.

9)- Evil done in the name of right, is still evil.

8) - Love is a force that bends knees and strengthens hearts. Nothing can stand before it, armies, goverments nothing.

7)- Somewhere in the Alliance is a cadre training a small army of dangerous, knowledgable and eloquent black men.

6)-When a man brings a sword to a gunfight, that there is a mighty dangerous man

5)-Nothing inspires someone to fight for their life more then the chance to get laid.

4)- 'Im the leaf in the wind..watch how I soar.' may just be the most beautiful last words ever spoken on screen.

3)-Nothing can drive a man like a belief in his cause. Nothing can destroy him more completely like that belief made lie.

2)-Nothing yells self esteem issues like a name like Mr Universe

1)-Lovers fall, Utopia turns to ash. Old Shepards guide us one last time and cities burn. But the sky is still waiting to take you back.

1. Nine minutes can encompass a good amount of mind bending.

2. Looks can be decieving: a forklift on steroids may be a better mule.

3. When you're in a tight spot, throw rocks in the other guy's engine.

4. Commercials can be scary, even after the movie.

5. A year in fight school makes you mighty.

6. Walk around in your nightmares, you might learn something useful.

7. Jayne has a really big t-shirt collection.

8. Book is even more the smart alek at death's door.

9. In a pinch, any weapon can be borrowed from any other point in the Jossverse.

10. Those who live in glass houses shouldn't ask others what their sin is.

*EDIT to add:
Dang, what was I thinking. I want to trade #8 for....
Reaver ships: Transformers never go out of style.
