I don't know about llamas, but it sure looks like some terrifying space monkeys were playing at River's hair.

Well if this worked, the image has been enlarged. You can clearly see it is a man, and in the blow up, you can see his other shoulder.

But she does look like the River from the movie. Again I think this one is more a complaint on how the character is portrayed overall, than with the cover...


Wow. I'm really not sure how to respond to that. Where in the movie did River ever look like a sultry sex-pot evil queen of the Amazon S&M mistress with glowing eyes? Must've missed that scene.

5) Mal has never used the weapon he's holding


well, i am pretty sure that the gun is from the beginning of the movie, when Mal asks river 'do you know your part in this?" and River asks Mal "do you?". when he is practicing aiming the gun.

Secondly, i don't particularly like this cover. it's not horrible, but it's pretty bad - not firefly-ish at all. not even serenity-ish at all. I think that they should have used the original poster, either the international one or the one for the states. both would have made great covers.

if you want to see a dvd cover that a (very talanted, if i may say so myself) browncoat made, click on this link: http://www.fireflyfans.net/sunroomitem.asp?i=5658
i think it's a lot better than the official one.

Damn, people, who's f***ing movie is this? I'm fairly sure y'all didn't front the 39 mil. Can't you just be glad we got the flick? Don't whine over dumb stuff like this...it's childish...

Select to view spoiler:


i've seen the movie, so i know that women in the future only have brown eyes. Since the River on the DVD cover has greenish-bluish eyes, she must be a River-looking love bot. The Riverbot carries her llamas from planet to planet protecting them from the llama hunters. The Alliance used llamas during the War for Unification and that's why Mal and Zoe are hunting them now. Lastly, since i've seen the movie and know none of this happens, this Riverbot plot was obviously cut from the final version of the film, but is included in the deleted scenes because "You can't stop the llamas."



My interpretation is spoiler protected in case others that haven't seen the movie are expecting llamas.
