In FF, Nathan parted his hair on the left-ish side, and in Serenity, it was parted mostly to the right.
What does it mean?
Does it indicate a change in Nathan's political beliefs?
Did Joss tell him to do it?
Was it the result of a lost bet with Morena?
We must find out the answer to this!

Hmmm, maybe a result of the change in hairstylists?
Of course, that's what the grand conspirasists would have us believe. Hah!

Maybe the film was flipped!

If you had posted that in the "Real World Event Discussions" forum there would be a load of political banter by now 
My advice: Tell no one. The truth is out there (on Nathans head, actually).

And I was afraid you were gonna discuss his change in suspenders from traditional leather to space-age rubberband-y material... Whew! I haven't put the finishing touches on my 50-page manifesto on the implications of that change, so I'm not quite ready to discuss it yet.
Sure am glad nobody noticed that!
Erm... Please disregard this post.
Compulsively,
zoid
P.S.
As to the change in the parting of his hair: Good catch! I'm sure it just symbolically represents the change from his happy-go-lucky, Captain-about-town character we all saw in Firefly, to the darker, more malevolent misfit who would tie a kid's dead body to the front of his ship as a hood ornament. Either that or Nat woke up one morning before shooting with such a bad case of 'pillow hair' that the hair-and-makeup folks were forced to go the other way...
P.P.S.
RE: My nascent manifesto. That would be 'braces' for the Britishly-inclined. If Nathan wears 'suspenders', he's keeping it on the 'down low', and we thank him for that.

As much as I dislike Freud (I'm not even sure I just spelled his name correctly) he did have one thing right. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. I changed my hair in middle school, and when people asked me why, well, it just seemed like a good idea at the time.

I know!
It's because all the events in Serenity really happened in a "mirror-'verse". Because it all happened in the mirror-'verse, none of the events which occurred there reflect what happened in the regular, real 'verse. KF

Lord, I'm walking your way. Let me in, for my feet are sore, my clothes are ragged.
Look in my eyes, Lord, and my sins will play out on them as on a screen. Read them all.
Forgive what you can and send me on my path. I will walk on until you bid me rest.

Chrisisall, it was disappointing that they didn't make Mal's pants tighter in the movie, but Simon's pants were MUCH tighter...so I guess that helped make up for it.
Anyway I agree w/Zoid on the geo-political implications of switching from leather suspenders. It is almost as though 'evil movie Mal' had gotten a good deal through Blue Sun (!)
If and when we get the sequel (or maybe in the next set of comic books) we'll have a chance to learn more about these subtle clues that the Joss has ingeniusly hidden within 'Serenity'....
