Therez alot uv inz & outs & wut-hav-youz in making moviez & TV showz. The writerz, directorz or any single person arent godz, so the final product iz never all their fault or credit.

This thread is quite polarized and why would I bump it?

I like what TheSomnambulist said about Directors. I mean about each one, since I don't know them that well.

Alien: Resurrection was one of the worst movies I've ever seen, and killed a good franchise. For such gross
tastelessness, the Studio and producers should be ashamed ... or shot.
Number 3 wasn't awful; just not very good. Pointless.

Sarcastic characters? I much enjoy the humor in Firefly. I like the honesty & decency of Kaylee, Wash,
Zoe & Book. I also like the thuggery and insubordination of Jayne. I have both Firefly & Serenity.

I saw the pilot for Buffy; don't think I got thru the one for DollHouse. I am not that much of a Whedon
fan. I see him as refreshingly creative. Would I walk across the street to get his autograph? Sure.

Quote Joss: "With everything that I do, I hope that they see people struggling to live decent, moral lives in
a completely chaotic world. They see how hard it is, how often they fail, and how they get up and keep trying.
That, to me, is the most important message I'm ever going to tell."

Well, OK. He gives us the Hard Life with a Hard Chaser. This old gal, I can't do total fear and hopelessness
anymore. Let's have some warmth and good times after a hard battle.

Alien Resurrection has my favourite writer, my favourite director and my favourite actor working together, yet the results are singularly disappointing. Goes to show you can have too much of a good thing.

I guess the old adage about 'too many cooks' comes to mind....

As heroic archetypes, they're all technically "decent" even in the grey on grey setting. Including Jayne, who does have his redeeming qualities. But yeah, "honesty" is something else, and not all of them have that.

I suspect Jayne would be less insubordinant in his comfort zone: While carrying grenades. How to stop
him calling Mal's name on every job, I have no clue. Dental anesthetic to paralyze the tongue perhaps.
