Yes, I have to agree. And, I am unable to think of any other performance in a sci-fi film where the performers did such a great job.

Nathan definitely deserves (at the very least) a "Best Actor" nomination at the oscars. I doubt he'll get it. The Academy tends to shy away from sci-fi films. And I'm not saying this as a Browncoat, I'm saying this as an objective viewer of films.

Nathan did some nasty things in the film (he shot unarmed people three times) -- yet, he still makes you feel for his character. He did an excellent job, worthy of being noticed by all of the award-bestowing institutions.

Even more so, Summer Glau deserves not only a nomination, but a victory for "Best Actress". Innocent insanity, genius mind-reader, lethal assassin all in one film. The transition from highly emotional scenes to kick-butt action star was nothing short of incredible.

This young woman was outstanding in this roll. If she doesn't get a nod from the academies, something is definitely amiss.

When I put my votes in I found the following:

The BDM is at #5 for best picture
Nathan is at #7 for best actor (beating Russell Crowe)
Summer is at #5 for Best Actress
Adam is at #8 for Supporting Actor
Joss is at #4 for Best Director
and the BDM is at #4 for Best Popcorn movie, beating out Episode III (I did like EpIII, but Serenity was FAR better!!)

Baldwin was a suprise for me to see on the supporting actor list. I think it may have been so because after watching the series, you notice that everyone shares the limelight and emotions equally. But then, if you watch and seperate Serenity from the rest of the group, you notice there's an imbalance in the limelight's focus between all the actors/actresses.

Niska: Oh, you do not like I kill this man?
Mal: No, I'm sure he was a...very bad person.
Niska: My wife's nephew. At dinner I am getting earful. There is no way around that.
