In one of the deleted scenes(or maybe in the script in the Visual Companion) with Mal/Inara, Inara asks Mal a question to which he responds: "I don't know." and she comes back with something to the effect of "I don't know, is not a very good answer."
In the end Mal asks if she's ready to leave.
Inara: "I don't know"
Mal: "Good answer"

"He's seen too much of life And there's no going back.
The loneliness calls him, And the edge which must be sharpened,
He's losing it. And he knows.
But there's a fighter in his mind and his body's tough
The years have been unkind, but kind enough." -Ocean Cloud (Marbles) -Marillion

I finally got the DVD. The first thing I noticed - sorry to go negative - was just how bad the soundtrack is. The movie never felt right to me at the theater, but I really couldn't put my finger on it. Watching the DVD from the comfort of my living room, I was able to really pay attention.
Everything else was there. The writing, the acting, the effects - all spot on and right up there with Whedon's best. But man, Newman's score was just lame. I'd never really thought about how much a score can affect the experience, but it sure made a difference.
I keep thinking about how great it would be if someone were to re-edit the soundtrack. Maybe use Greg Edmonson's stuff from the series.

I noticed this little thing when i watched it agian last night.
Zoe: How much you got left?
Jayne: One mag... and my swinging cod. So little.
This banter happens after they retreat into the hallway, before Simon gets shot and after Jayne throws a grenade in the room.

I really have to disagree with that. I found the music suiting and well written. I love listening to the soundtrack, it is like a guide for the movie to play in my head. The songs carry good emotion

I noticed for the first time that when river starts the fight in the bar there are protective sheilds that go up over the dancers windows. Never noticed that in the theater. Love the grenade exchange between zoe and Jayne, heard that the second time at the theater.
Also at the begining when the operative says something like "because the situation is even less simple then you realize" or something like that forshadowing the whole miranda thing. Which would say that the operative lies when he says he doesnt know what river knows
And random thought when i first saw the movie and they show MR universe's planet with the ion cloud my first thought was that i must be books home planet, where they all have his hair! Cause the cloud reminded me of his hair lol.
And i really like the soundtrack.

Oh oh! and when Mal goes down into MR universe's, when he leaves the others he and Inara share a great look.

I noticed
-That in the hanger bay while Jayne is dumping the reaver corpse and junk, Kaylee finds a catilyzer (the famous broken part from 'Out of Gas') and fidgets with it.
-The reaver's facial mutilations (redness and swelling) are reminiscent of radiation exposure.
-A lot of the reaver ships look like Junkion vessels from Transformers the Movie.
-River is wearing slips (or somethings very close) through most of the movie. Actually I had noticed in the theater but tried very hard to not let that distract me from the rest of flick.
-Wash is wearing his signature hawiian shirt underneath his jumpsuit. You can see the collars.
-Mr. Universe is that dude from '10 Things I Hate About You.' "Hates you with the fire of a thousand suns..." lol. That line cracks me up to this day ;)

Hmmm, well different strokes and all. Sure didn't work for me. It sounded like it might have been taken from a drivers' ed safety film. GE's stuff had sparkle and character.

That reminds me of the only thing I noticed until I watched the DVD (for the 3rd time)...
When Jayne wears the hat into town, it disappears in the next scene in the bar. Apparently it's just hanging around his neck. You can see it when he goes to the counter to get something to eat while Mal and Kaylee are fighting in the front ground.
I always thought it was a sort of bad continuation type of thing which bothered me.
Oh and Wash is such a gentleman...he held on to Zoe's card/key to the gun cabinet in the bar for her. *giggles* I find that to be the sweetest thing I've ever seen him do.
