She could have curled it but in the 'Message' commentary they mention that she finally had her hair straightened. Does it look like naturally curly hair in HoG and OiS?



When were all the episodes filmed ? Check the finish date ... this might shed light on the problem at hand ... not to mention shows in some cases were originally shown out of order ...

In the pilot, when the Reavers come back to the planet looking for Serenity, check the size of Serenity compared to the Reaver ship. Sometimes the Reaver ship looks huge, then in other scenes, both ships look not so different.


Talk peace but, carry a BIG stick.

Has anyone spotted any more?



In Bushwacked, when Jayne is telling Simon to get suited up and come along, he loads his Smith & Wesson revolver, and holsters it. Said revolver has a C-More(TM) electronic dot sight mounted on top.

Later, on the ship which has been attacked by Reavers, he is holding a completely different revolver. It appears to be a kluged up Colt 1860-type cap and ball revolver -- no top strap over the cylinder. It also appears to have a fast draw-type hammer ... and no C-More sight.

Shindig = Inara switches from Atherton's right arm to his left arm in between takes.

Serenity = (Hard one to explain) When preforming the crazy Ivan, the thruster on the side of serenity flips backward, however IIRC its the port (left thrustrer, this would make Serenity spin counter clockwise, yet in the next shot, the port thruster is strait ahead and the starboard thruster is backward.

Large continuity error in alot of episodes = Every time the two side engines are on/glowing while the ship is in space. They are turboprop-hybrids of some sort and cant operate unless they are surrounded by atmo/oxygen, like Jaynes gun.

Yeah, with regards "the ear" blooper, I just checked and there is definitely 1 scene - just as Niska's henchman first attaches the special torture tool to Mal's chest. This scene does indeed appear to be inverted. Why would they do that?

Instead of the engines being wrong, perhaps you simply do not understand all that they are capable of.

I'll take a look. Do you think it's somehow a mirror image, like the frame was attached backward or something? I don't see how they could do the makeup wrong unless the scene was shot two different days.

Yes, there was a mirror-image on one shot in War stories for some reason...I was far more annoyed by the inverting of the crazy ivan engine flipping CGI shots (turned the normal way first, then turned around backwards second!)

MAL
Good. Thanks for the update.

I don't have my DVDs handy so I can't check.


Does Jayne say something about River being a "mind reading genius" in The Message? It was my understanding that Jayne didn't find out about River unti OiS.

I think the line is "Girl's a mind reading genius but she can't figure out how to eat an ice planet."

about the backwards Mal scene:

I assumed it was a design choice--oftetimes the scenes won't flow properly, they want one scene to be from THIS angle---the next to be from THAT angle--to give some variety..Joss is huge about changing around the camera angles. Maybe it was just an aesthetic thing.

Just a humble supplicant in service to all things Joss
