blech-- not an original moment in this three hour thing. Think of the worst grossout bug crap from temple of doom and multiply by ten..... You know a movie is bad when you make up dialog like "There's no way our 25' monster, who slays three dinosaurs can escape from our chains." "Why, not?" "---Cause." "Oh, yeah this is gonna go good."

requests
Sunday, 01 January 2006 02:01:22

I've been getting a lot of request for my artwork including one from summerglau.net. Inspiring to say the least. You all keep liking them and I'll keep doing them. I might throw in a few in different styles to keep from getting bored.. but I never seem to stray to far from my comic book style for very long. Just somthing about a sable brush and ink I like the look of. so keep the request coming and keep flying.

Hello everyone!! :) My name is Steven, and I wanted to say hello to everyone here! I just joined today. I wanted to say a few things that you all have probably read a few times - - I love the Firefly 'verse, SO MUCH. It has a place in my heart, and it always will. And sadly we only have 15 episodes if you count the film as well. I own the season on DVD and the movie as well. - I currently cannot get enough of Firefly, despite having seen everything there is to see. I am now buying the Comic books (What few there are) and will be buying the novels as they release. Call me a devoted fan. I want to thank Joss Whedon for making this world and giving it to us to fall in love with. Thank you Joss, keep up the great work. I'll always be a huge fan. And I would like to say thanks to all of you fans/browncoats! If it wasn't for you the film would not have happened. A little about me, I am 20 years old and am currently enrolled in college trying to attain a major in English and a minor in writing. And I think Nathan Fillion is cute. :blush: So you might hear me proclaiming my fascination for him more than once. :biggrin: Nice to meet you all!!

Pie

So the day's winding down, I forgot my password, then remembered it...and no one I know is on, I've read all the fanfics that interest me, wondered why the River/Simon pairing exists... And then I got nothin' to do, when bam, I remember, "I have a BLOG to bore people with!" Shiny, ain't it? Well, what's new in my life? Attaining levels of boredom never before conceived, being extremely envious of Citizen's mathematical smarts, then being extremely proud of myself for understanding most of what he (unless it's a she) is sayin'... I'm 14, and being able to type at this age is a rutting (with a g) miracle, so things are looking positive. Perhaps in two years, I can say somethin' smart in physics-speak and confound a 14 year old... I've bored you for long enough, reader. Go on, watch 5 episodes like a good Browncoat should, keep your room clean like me...but that's only 'cause I'm an obsessive-compulsive megalomaniac, which probably has -somethin'- to do with the whole 5 episodes a day for a total of 35 episodes a week which breaks down to seeing each episode 7 times. I think. Shutting up now.

Hi
Sunday, 01 January 2006 04:29:28

So... this is my first post. I am a new lover of the FIRELFY universe. I bought the complete series and got SERENITY for Christmas. I LOVE the Mal/Inara and Simon/Kaylee relationships. I am such a sucker for romance. :blush: I'm such a girl. Which I am, by the way. Just in case you were wondering.

Beta Reader Request

Hi! I would like to request a Beta Reader. I have a little bit of my story done.

A Challenge, to any and all who dare...
Sunday, 01 January 2006 09:37:49

Ok so it's not really that ominous. I just had an idea for a challenge fic. It's called "The Orange Hats are invading- Save Us Captain!" Challenge: If you choose to accept it you must include the following: -A rubber duck -Tomato soup -A crew member's birthday -Jayne's orange hat (which we all love dearly) -A mention of Pirates (the comical pirates with eye patches and parrots) -Vera and at least one drunked crew member. I plan on giving it a shot, I hope some others might rise to the challenge. Oh and if you're super daring you could try including a song from 'Earth That Was' and a mention of one of those ceramic swans. Good Luck, I plan on posting mine by the end of the week

Happy New Year

Wishin one and all a very brown new year..

A Huge Firefly Fan
Sunday, 01 January 2006 10:56:53

I have been a fan of firefly since it originaly aired. I also am on a few fansites, and I own the entire series and Serenity on DVD. The Firefly just blows me away, so bulky but yet graceful. You're never disappointed by her unless you don't pay attention to her and something bad happens (refering to Out Of Gas). I love the show and the movie adds a great prespective to it. Even though they killed off my 2nd fav character, those bastards. But I've heard some talk about possibly a 2nd season of Firefly coming out, if it does it better be based before the movie.

Jan 1st

So, it's the first day of the year and I've got all sortsa goals and achievements I want to make. Like a) finishing Pretty Fits. This most recent chapter has been slow in coming, just haven't been 'feeling it'. But I promise you guys I won't leave you hanging. b) I wanna new job, and possibly even to relocate. I love to travel and I'm getting sick of home already again. (side note..I just got back from Alaska in October) Shiny thoughts and shiny dreams everybody!

Mal/Inara sites
Sunday, 01 January 2006 20:14:22

Anyone know a good Mal/Inara site? I've been trying to find one and google isn't being very helpful. I'm getting very frustrated. :banghead:

BDM?
Sunday, 01 January 2006 21:17:45

This is going to make me sound really stupid, but what does BDM mean. I know that it refers to the movie SERENITY, but I just don't get what it stands for and I've been seeing it all over the place. It's actually driving me a little bit crazy. A lot of things tend to do that.

Browncoats compared to other fans...
Sunday, 01 January 2006 23:04:33

I've been a part of many fandoms in my life and each has their own...'quirks'... Anime fans range as much as the title does. Sometimes they're sensible, sometimes they're a little crazy, and sometimes...they're Inuyasha fans. But depnding on their personality, they can be usually very easy to get along with. But many hate the idea of dubs and I know most of us hate censorship. Me and many of my friends get into rants over Toonami's blood edits. Green Day fans are often like the band themselves. Cynical of society, but crazy and hyper in the same body. But I can't get along with most of the fans I meet online. Well, except for the Pantsing Mike Brigade, but we reccently got deleted from the face of GSB. Also, some older fans are really bitter about their new commercial success and commonly generalize the new fans as immature teenagers who only know American Idiot and only like them for their looks. *shakes head* But often times, these new fans become true blue veterans and are as knowlegdible as the people who've been into them for 10 years. Not all fans fit this negative image I've painted...but they're are days I can't stand those fans. Dead Like Me fans...they are the closest things to Browncoats I've experienced before I started watching Firefly. We're all different but we get brought together about this little show about grim reapers. And not to mention we had a grave injustice commited against us too...damn network execs thought Fat Actress and Weeds were better buys. We've tried to fight though...hell, Browncoats are often used as examples when we talk about bringing the show back. And they're open to new fans too. Browncoats though...they're some of the best fans I've ever seen. They were...and still are...extremely passionate. They never gave up because they saw something big in our favorite little show. And with Serenity, they did the impossible. Not to mention they are EXTREMELY open to new fans!! Even though I've only been into it for not even 4 months, I've never felt out of place. But why did it take me so long to join here? Oh well. Thanks for reading my useless mini-essay.

First Day of the New Year
Sunday, 01 January 2006 23:34:11

Well, here I sit in a quandary, needing to pour out lots of stuff that I'm feeling, but knowing that this is a public forum and not wanting to hint at my problems to other folks. Suffice it to say... there may have to be changes that will be difficult this year. A relationship may have to end, after many years, and running along in tandem with this prospect is the fact that my baby daughter is getting her first job, is in love and will likely be leaving home soon. Not maybe immediately soon, but soon. Funny thing is, my husband seems to be pushing this on, and I'm not happy about that. Can't seem to explain to him, for the life of me, that he may want her to be on her own now, but he will miss her. Or is it possible that this man is truly going to be happy when she leaves home? Seems like it to me, and I just can't understand that, for I'm going to be very lonely and sad to see her go. Yea, I know, I know, the old "empty nest syndrome" is what I'm feeling, but it's also that I like my daughter, I enjoy her company and I'm just flat out gonna miss her. And I find I am having not so good feelings toward my husband for being so pushy with her. He makes her feel unwelcome.. and I'm pissed about that. Well, the old year went out with this constant nagging thing, it seems it will begin with it too. God, I'm glad I have Firefly and this board to call my home too, or I think I'd just get a little crazy. On a lighter note... my Mom went to a family dinner and took " Serenity" to share with my aunt and cousin and family. They will get hooked there is no denying it and they have a large circle of friends who will get hooked and on it goes. Thank you to my Mom who remembered to take it and spread the Firefly love.
