What Idiots!
Saturday, 07 January 2006 02:21:27

My stupid brother and my stupid friend tease me to no end over my *ahem* obsession. Every time they walk up to use the computer and find me on it--usually lurking about this website--they make fun of me. "I've never known anyone to be so obsessed about a television show", "what the hell do all of those people talk about?", "blah, blah, blah, blah, blah," and on and on. All I can say is, who wakes up in the morning and logs onto their car websites? Eh? EH?!!! I have to wait until 3:00 pm before I can even sit down in front of this screen! Who sits on ebay and looks up car parts, electronics, xbox stuff, etc., etc.? Yeah, that's my quality brother! Not to bash ebay users or car fanatics, but REALLY! WHERE DO THEY GET OFF?! Stupid idiots. They just don't understand. It's different for them. It's okay to be WAY into cars. It's okay to spend all of your money on ebay. But it's not okay to love a television show and to love talking to other people who just happen to love said tv show. Duh! Okay, I'm done. Mattie

I love it

Last night I rented Serenity and I would like to say that the movies was spectacular. To my amazement, this morning the SciFi had a firefly marathon, so I was able to see all the episodes. I am really disappointed that the show was canceled. I am all for helping bring the show back. I believe that it has a great story and those brown suits do not know a good show when they see one. Go figure, to the brown suits, idiodic shows such as reality shows and and rich narcissism are what they think we need like to see.

Why Wash?!

Why did Joss have to kill off Wash?! It eats me up inside! Even IF the show were to be picked up again, or a second film be made, I'm torn as to whether I could sit through it without Wash there. I know it's just a story, but it really eats at me still.

Just one reason I love this place

I wrote this yesterday in another forum, to explain to someone why I was gushing about a particular non-fiction author. When I wrote it, I realized I was also thinking about some of you... I appreciate this guy because he is one of the magnificent few: the ethical expert with a very long view, who holds a holographic model of his/her field on the palm of one hand and posesses the ability to explain the subject in a way that has both poetry and epiphany for any level of understanding.

Discovering Firefly
Saturday, 07 January 2006 13:14:29

As an already established Joss Wheadon fan, what with Buffy and the brillent Angel, I knew that i had to at some point check out firefly. Here in the UK I never really got the opportunity as it was only shown on SCI-FI channel and then cancelled. So when I heard about the movie i just knew I had to see it. The reviews before the film released here in the UK were great and critics were raving that it was a sleeper hit. What can I say, I totally loved the film. Great storyline, fantasic characters and of course joss's trademark humour. I had to have more. I have just now got my hands on the whole DVD series and already I have managed to watch most of it and I can't believe what those complete morons at FOX were thinking to even want to cancel such a great show. You can just tell it ws only just getting off the ground and givin time this could have been something fantastic. I just want to add that I am now a complete devout fan and I hope we see more of firefly and the crew in the future. Here's to Serenity. p.s I now have a huge crush on Nathan wowww!

Yes, as the blog title implies, I'm new to Fireflyfans.net. Joined yesterday, and I'm already loving it. It's nice to have so many fans in one place to converse and the like. I turned a browncoats fan when one of my family members called from his cell, declaring he was going to take me to this wonderful new movie (Note that he had just seen the thing, and was going to take me to it not an hour later. I agreed. I was blown away by the end of the movie. It was very interesting to me. Not two weeks later I owned the Firefly series on DVD, and not very long after that I had the Serenity DVD in my possession. I've made a board of my own dedicated to both Firefly and Serenity.

New Serenity Goodies
Saturday, 07 January 2006 18:55:50

Well I got home from work yesterday and to my pleasant surprise my sealed box of Serenity trading cards had been delivered. So I spent the next few hours opening up all of the packs and carefully seperating them into there proper order :biggrin: Every sealed box of cards comes with 1 autographed card guaranted and that's the main reason why i made this purchase. But there are also another special card equally as cool as the autographed one's that can be found in random packs, costume cards. These cards have an actualy piece of a characters costume that they wore in the movie. I didnt have high expectations that I would find one, but to my pleasant surprise, even before finding my autograph card, I opened a pack and there it was. I almost wet myself :evil: when I saw it, but to my pleasant surprise I got a piece of Inara's costume from the final fight scene against the reavers. A half an hour later I finally found my autograph card as well! I got one signed by River herself, Summer Glau, and needless to say both of these gems are going to be put in very hard protective cases and displayed in my room for a long long time. Now if only my posters would get here :disappointed:

During my rambles around the internet looking for Firefly 'verse stuff, I heard on The Signal #1 (
