CANTONHEROINE

I was re-watching Our Mrs Reynolds yesterday, and I noticed (not for the first time) that in the scene where Jayne is about to use Vera on the Scrapper Station, Mal specifically tells him not to shoot the windows as "that might kill someone". Jayne proceeds to shoot the breakers AND the window. A little act of defiance on his part? I like to think so.

Just finished watching episode 12 of BSG. Whoa :evil: talk about a good episode. It was pretty heart wrenching. Don't know if there are many BSG fans here, but seriously ... it's something you guys should try to watch. My workloads been so gorram heavy recently, I haven't really had the time to finish reading the script of Dead or Alive. Wish they'd continue with Firefly. I want more!!! :fork:

Posted: 27 Jul 2005 11:44 pm Post subject: Captain Outraged! Edmonton, fall in! -------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- -- It is times like these that I feel like Malcolm Reynolds. This is something that would surely get you kicked into an engine. I just went to a comic store to purchase the Serenity comic for my mom. The sweetheart that she is, gave her issues (with her favorite character on the front) to relatives who were having trouble tracking one down. Please bear in mind that Canada is a wondrous place where the service industry is polite and helpful, and that this experience is not the norm. The store I chose, which shall remain nameless (Warp 1 Comics), at an undisclosed location (just off Whyte Ave), has the singlemost sanctimonious, condescending, dishonest a$$hole I've had the misfortune of meeting. My brother and I called ahead to find out they had one issue left, but upon arriving, found out they are gouging people $20 bucks for the damned thing! "That's what they're worth." he sneered at me. I asked him to show me a listing of some sort to back it up. "Well, I just know what I paid Dark Horse for it." He wouldn't show me that, either. I am aware that Dark Horse wasn't expecting these books to sell as well as they are, and that they are going into a second printing, but I just picked up three of them two days ago at cover price at another store. My brother piped up with a, "What an interesting attitude you have." Let me tell you folks, this fella had an attitude, and a smirk that you wanted to knock off his face with a baseball bat dipped in dog poop. Of course, my brother couldn't help letting this guy know who he was trying to hose by holding the issue next to my face. "This guy look familliar? This isn't some JoJo off the street! He knows what he's talking about!" Check this out- the reply of this crap-catcher, who shall remain nameless (Darryl) was, (and imagine a dullards voice- how we make people we don't like sound in a story) "Well, then you can call Joss Whedon and ask him." I had to tell this purplebelly that I was being sarcastic when I thanked him for his excellent service, and I don't think he knew what sanctimonious meant! Wouldn't a smart business man ask me to sign an issue and sell me one at a fair price? Wouldn't that fetch a prettier penny than ripping me off for one issue? Congratulations, dude! You are now on the Browncoat $hitlist. Never have I tried to wield power in this way, but if being Malcolm Reynolds has taught me anything, it's to follow my over-developed sense of vengeance. BOYCOTT WARP ONE COMICS! If you are in the neighborhood, drop by to tell "the Buttress" that Browncoats don't take $hit from anyone. Tell your friends not to shop there, and lock 'em in the airlock if they do. Copy this post and e-mail it to fellow Edmontonians. Bump it to keep it alive. Thank you. Thank you for letting me rant. If you feel I'm overboard, please feel free to, as Joss would say, contemplate silently. The Captain Edited to be less cruel, and to mention how wonderfully my dear mom was treated at HAPPY HARBOR. Thank you, staff and owners at Happy Harbor. You made my mom's day. Turns out, Warp One tried to hose her, too, by telling her that the Jayne covered issue was a rarity. Love you, Adam B. You ARE a rarity. Nothin' agin you. But will these butt-tards stoop so low as to steal from a woman? For shame, Warp One, for shame.

See this a lot on various threads, but I just have to gush a bit more about talented this girl is. What I keep coming back to in my mind, is how hard a role that likely was to play. From Summer's portrayal of River it's hard to see, but I'm sure that in the hands of a less-talented actress River could have come out entirely different. Really, that part could have sunk the show if done wrong or over-acted. They way she's able to convey some pretty complex emotions always impressed me. I'm no acting-coach or anything, but I've watched enough TV by now to know good acting when I see it. Some of my favorite River Tam moments: SPOILERS COMING... The dance segment in Safe almost had me in tears for some reason. The end of War Stories of course, with her shootout is an all-time classic. Plus the foreshadowing there... Then obviously the fight scenes in the BDM. Goes without saying. My only wish was that I'd seen more episodes before the movie, so I'd know just what a huge turn that was for her. My favorite: It's a short scene, but it always just kills me when I see it. In the Serenity movie, Simon and River are talking in the infirmary about Miranda. Simon has that line where he asks if he's talking to Miranda, and River her just gives him that look. There's a whole history in that one expression she gives him that conveys more than any amount of dialogue could have. Anyways, that scene right there always makes me wish she'd won an award for that movie. Definately and up-and-coming young actress that's going to go big places. I just hope she's not too busy to come back to the crew if we can ever the Serenity flying again.

"Cry baby, cry" "Make your mother sigh" Arrrrggghhh! It really bothers me that I didn't realise that was a Beatles lyric until now. Well, it is. Not that this has anythign to do with anything... it's just... I should have known and I didn't. Thank you John Lennon, thank you Joss Whedon... in succeeding to drive me crazy. You both rock.

For some reason, every time I try to write Wash lately, he insists on being present tense. If I were better schooled in the way of psychiatrics, I would probably say this stems from my deep-seated desire for him to NOT BE FUCKING DEAD, JOSS, KTHXBAI. Whatever the reason, it's seriously messing with the next chapter of How I Soar, (which is decidedly in the past tense,) and the aside I've been writing (the missing shower scene, for those following the series, which should also be past tense in order to *fit* with the rest of the series.) I wrote a Wash/Zoe today that somewhat sated my desire to write Wash present tense, but I can't promise it'll hold me indefinitely. Not that anyone who reads my fiction will complain too loudly if I have to spout off a few random ficlets to help me deal, right?
