Loved the response of folk here!
Although I enjoyed Serenity, I would have never become the fan-boy that I am if it weren’t for Firefly. Joss W. defiantly had a hit on his hands if the Evil Empire hadn’t stepped in! Can you imagine the status of Firefly now!!?
Firefly is easily the best sci/fi fiction entertainment posted to tv in a long, long while. And since I’ve been around a while I feel that I can attest to that.
Anyhoo, the BDM is what lead me to FF, so in that regard I am grateful. As far as the movie and the television series folding hands together into a likeness, I will say that Joss missed the target with that one, JMO. The mind-meld of Firefly to Serenity did not work out well. Not that I didn’t like the BDM, it’s just that I view them as separate entities. One will link to the other, just as a caterpillar will morph into a moth in late Spring, …..that making any sense?
Anyway , in the television series I never believed that Malcolm Reynolds totally ever lost his belief in GOD! In my opinion Captain Reynolds was calling the MAN upstairs out for expression! Wanting the Divinity to make a factual statement of existence. Course that would never happen! Either you believe in a Divinity or you do not. That is a decision of your own device.
Anyhoo, loved FF and I enjoyed the BDM. Nuff said, still holding, Z

I feel the same way as ZZETTA 13 regarding Mal's belief in God.
To use Shakespeare: He doth protest too much.

Mal may very well still believe in God but simply has no faith in him at all.
I do not fear God, I fear the ignorance of man.
