When the operative has his identity checked, the voice that says "Parlimentary Override" is Morena Baccarin.

Am I the only person that thinks Jayne isn't wearing his 'Jayne-hat' as he comes off Serenity? It just looks like a middle-eastern head scarf to me.

-That in the hanger bay while Jayne is dumping the reaver corpse and junk, Kaylee finds a catilyzer (the famous broken part from 'Out of Gas') and fidgets with it.

I knew that thing looked familiar...

Yes, I watch them at least a couple of times a day, just so I can have a good laugh!!

Can anyone say OBSESSION?!?!? LOL

Also, as you can see by my signature, the Haven outtake is my favorite as well!

Though the op told his men to "destroy it all", almost all of the monitors in Mr. Universe's "office" displayed the Miranda recording when Mal transmitted it.

I think you're confused on this point though.
We didn't see the actual "office" i.e., the place with the lovebot at any time after Mal runs the broadwave. All those lit monitors were in the generator room, I swear!



I'm 100% positive on this one, actually. Go to chapter 17, forward to 1:44:44 just as the hologram woman is saying "it isn't what we thought" and you'll see the screens in Mr. Uni's Office, then a cut *back* to Mal in the generator room hitting the control to raise the bridge.

Serenity on DVD. 12/20/05.



Maybe they destroyed all the transmission equipment and didn't bother with the screens? Can't really do any damage as far as 'sending' a signal with the screens. OR the alliance is just incompetent. Maybe this was the same group of purplebellies that looked for Simon and River in "Bushwacked".....under a Placemat.....TWICE!




OMG, I remember pointing that out to my step-father when I was "making" him watch the series over the holidays. That purplebelly must have thought the Serenity crew shrank River and Simon and hid them under the placemats!!!! Oy-vey! LOL

I think I may have just found another Serenity blooper: In the classroom scene, pause it when the student asks "why were the independents even fighting us?" and we are seeing the entire classroom, from behind and to the left of the teacher. There is no sign of River, even as the camera pans slightly before the next cut.

This cannot be explained by her desk being far enough behind the others, because this shot is quite wide and later shots establish how close she is to the other students:

- when River is tapping on the computer tablet we see how close she is to the student in front of her (the back of his feet are visible immediately above her tablet)

- right after River says "we meddle" and the camera zooms out to show the reaction of nearby students, we can see how close her desk is to the others'

I know Summer's a big damn star, but even her age-9-stand-in was too important to be there for the establishing shots? ;)

I HAVE to watch the outtakes everytime I put it in. Sometimes I just watch them.

I noticed pretty much all this stuff in the theater.

Like you it was little stuff I didn't notice. Because I was new to Firefly/Serenity it was a lot to pick up in first viewing.

It does say Captain. I just figured that was another of the changes Joss made to make it more "accesible" to newcomers.

I ABSOLUTELY hate it when Kaele says "wait Wash, where's Wash?" and Zoe says "He ain't coming"

I HATE THAT

Who besides me reckons that had the Operative not said "stand down" our little Albatross would have been kicking a whole passel of Alliance arse?
