Good god! This whole thread is so... womanly.
Well, before I go puke in disgust, I will add some credibility to this thread: I am a heterosexual male who is usually unaffected emotionally by movies. But Firefly gets me several times. Out of Gas had me genuinely worried and on the edge of my seat, completely captivated, despite the fact that when I was watching the episodes I had already seen the movie. That's good writing and acting for you.
But the most emotional part is Objects in Space, when River is saying she'll go with Early. When she's upset about the crew's distrust of her, and that one strings piece comes in... wow. I got choked up, and that's saying alot.

I'm visiting my hometown for over a month and it has been a really unhappy experience...I don't know anyone here anymore...I'm lonely...my mom is a drunk...
I miss my home...I miss my friends...my kitty...and just for s&g (sh!ts & giggles) I bought firefly...and then to see this episode..it was like..."YES THAT'S WHAT I WANT IN MY LIFE!!!"
Come to think of it, I too was going through a rough time right around the time I picked up Firefly. Somehow, four moves in 6 months and a death in the family counts as stress, right? I think it was the family dynamic and the idea of being free and independent that made me fall in love with the series. Even though they faced a rough life, they made the best of it.

I love the idea of freedom and independence...
Living with a dysfunctional family makes me feel very trapped and helpless...
There's a reason why I moved 2000 miles from home...to be free...

(hands you a bucket)
Now...don't get your innards in a twist...men can be emotive and feeling like if they need to be...
Look at Simon...he's pretty...girlified in his feelings but undoubtedly a man.

You know the music in Out of Gas when Mal is walking up to the bridge for the first time (sans bullet wound), closing the doors, and putting on the army blanket? I love that bit of music. I can't get it out of my head.
Damn the horrible company starting with F and ending with X.

I think Ariel was like the best episode, i watch it all the time........actualy i watch the whole season at least 2 times a week lol. My favorite thing in the whole season is when simon has jayne on the table and he tells him that he has jayns life if his hands, and then he tells him that he will alwase be safe with him.
Ohh and i also love the firefly theme song
take me out to the black tell them i aint commin back, burn the land boil the sea you cant take the sky from me
i havent been able to get this song out of my head and i cant stop watching this show i felt kinda like a looser cause i watch it all the time, but i just cant help it im in love with it

*the bun looks up from her position
near the floor, where she is holding
Xit's head over Red's bucket and he is
being very manly (i.e. making a big racket
and resisting the inevitable)*

Men are sensitive. Serenity is Mal's home. He wouldn't leave her. He bought her so he could have all this freedom and look he is stuck to Serenity like a gum on the bottom of a chair.
He wanted to get away from people and what does he have, eight souls packed in that tiny ship. Hell you can't leave one room with runnng into somebody. Out of Gas is about the family that Mal has found himself with. What did he say at the end. "You'll be here when I wake up?" or words to that effect. They are all important to him. He tells Saffron how they care for each other. Of course she doen't understand but even Jayne must have that feeling or he would have left them himself. Oh I beter stop because I'm talking about Jayne again and that will take all night. So yes I get weepy eyed. Big old fart that I am.
You take care akredhead. Want to see you post often. Need to here from good people.
