Actually, I didn't much care for the third trailer. It was fun seeing more shots and dialog. But they make it look a lot lighter than it's supposed to be. I mean, look at all the material on the official site -- universal civil war, a hero permanently marked by his role on the losing side, battles in which thousands were killed. Yet the trailer makes it all look very lighthearted -- "Ally McBeal, only with spaceships." Hollywood loves "only with" tags, even when they make no sense.

I thought the more lighthearted take was a bit refreshing. From what we've heard of the darker tone the series will be taking, we already know that it won't be fluffy and comedic. It is simply nice to know that it won't all be tense and dramatic and that there will be a few shreds of lightheartedness scattered through the darkness.
Though, I did see it only once. If I had seen it repeatedly, my opinion may be different. Alas, there is no file for it online so I won't have the opprotunity to tell you until it's aired again.

Giles: Clearly, that is not a helpful book, darling. Come down and we'll go about fixing this in a sensible fashion.
Anya: Sensible? You think it's sensible for me to go down into that pit of cotton-top hell, and let them hippety-hop all over my vulnerable flesh?

I'm sure FOX will air it again during American Idol. I'll try and grab it when it airs.

Hell. FOX had two Firefly trailers last night during American Idol. The second was a new one that I've never seen before. Stopped my rig after grabbing the first, thinking that it was the only one, and completely missed the second when it aired. Oh well, they might play it again tonight. I'll be ready.
If you want to see the first trailer, you can grab it here:

You'll need the Divx5 codec to view.

Thing I noticed was that Carlos Jacott once again turns up in an ME production.
Carlos was Ken in Anne on Buffy and Richard in Bachelor Party on Angel.
He's the guy who says

"That girl is a precious commodity...they'll come after her"
in the trailer.

Here's the latest trailer. It appeared during the second 30 Seconds of Fame last night. Man, the length I have to go to get this stuff. Well, worth it though. I like this trailer a whole lot. Mainly because there are some snappy dialogs between the characters:
Malcolm: How's business?
Inara: None of yours.

Thanks for the trailers! I really do appreciate the hardships you are enduring to bring them to us
But I was wondering what happened to trailer1.zip? Is it one of the ones on the offical site or is it just a myth!?
I look forward to seeing any more that you can get hold of!
