Most definately. She's incredibly talented.
Good to see Serenity and Joss gettin' some well-deserved praise.
And for the record, I also thought Serenity was better than Episode III.

For my $.02, I agree that Serenity was better than Sith.
But I still really, really dug the hell out of Sith.

Wow.... that seems to be our lot in life when it comes to Firefly/Serenity. Great movie, few saw.
This was a very good article, and they explained why the good (and bad) movies of the year are very note-worthy. And 'note-worthy' has absolutly nothing to do with Box Office scores.
But I agree, I wish Summer had made Best Actress list.
Once, just once, I want things to go according to
the gorram plan!

Awlright! That's wonderful news!
But I certainly think that at number one should have been...
Sideways
With the criminally neglected 'Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang' at no.2, followed by Serenity. C'mon, Firefly flans! You saw Serenity struggle at the B.O, don't you care about the year's other great marketing-abused flick? Please! Run and see this film!

OMG! *Our* little movie got named third best of the year, and in such exalted company as "History" and "Brokeback"? Yowza. Talk about your good publicity. And hey, every little bit helps, right? (Maybe the writer's a Browncoat... 
)

I saw A History of Violence and didn't think it was that big a deal!
Good to see Serenity is up there but I'm just amazed Violence is where it is...

That will surely help sales as well as the the "wandering in video rental store" factor.

'Sideways' came out in 2004, so it wasn't in the running (but did make it to a lot of people's lists last year since it was a nomination for last year's best oscar)
unfortunately 'Serenity' will NOT be nominated for any oscars... :(
It is really encouraging that it hasn't been forgotten...and this kind of article should help DVD sales
Yeah, Joss also thought 'Sith' was awesome, but I think he'll happily enjoy the compliment that HIS movie had that something extra (like good dialoge, wonderful acting, a more surprising plot with actual plot twists....).
