* After they shoot the Reaver that survived the barnswallow collision, River says, "He didn't lie down...they never lie down", which is actually backwards, since when they get to Miranda it's, "none of them fell, they just lay down".


I think she was talking about the reavers, everyone else on the planet just layed down and let themselves die, but the people who became the reavers didn't.

Otherwise excellent observations, I'd caught most of those. Though what do you mean the Op gave mal the idea to disguise his ship? I must've missed that.

"Haha, mine is an evil laugh."

I remember someone, I'm not sure who, pointed out that at the end of the movie Book's monument is placed next to Mr. Universe's and Wash's. They asked the rather disturbing question, "How did his body get there?"

Of course the consensus seems to be that those are not grave markers, but simple monuments of remembrance.



I had just assumed they were on Haven at that point, and had brought Wash and Mr. Universe there...



Oh, I just assumed that the crew buried them on Mr. Universe's planet, but I hadn't occured to me that they could have taken them back to Haven...that seems to make more sense. They seemed to consider Haven to be kinda like their 2nd home, aside from Serenity. Good Catch!

I think there's a little connection between one of the outtakes and a later scene in the real movie.

I'm sure everyone here remembers "Don't you f*cking tell me what to goddamn do! MY SHIP!"

It took me a couple of viewings to make the connection that the "MY SHIP!" line is actually what Mal says to Simon after he brings them back on board after the barfight. And right as he says it and pushes Simon back onto the table, Kaylee is in the shot. And the expression on her face looks like Jewel is trying really hard to emote that she's horrified and taken aback by the fighting and concerned for Simon, but can't quite conceal a mischievous grin thinking back to "goddamn do"...

I've been loving this thread. It's incredible all the little details that we can catch in this movie.

There's one I haven't seen mentioned on this thread but that I know has been mentioned elsewhere, which is the fact that, during River's rescue from the Academy, when Simon's taking the jaket off and looking out the door, he turns and sees River just as she calls out "Simon", but she DOES NOT OPEN HER MOUTH. That was... freaky. LOL.

Wash: This landing is gonna get pretty interesting.
Mal: Define "interesting".
Wash: [deadpan] Oh God, oh God, we're all going to die?

The Op says "Mal, you're not a Reaver" and Mal gets a thoughtful look on his face and cuts off transmission then the next thing you see is him telling the crew to tie some bodies to the ship.
