This questions for you guys and gals who have seen the dvd version

Just got the DVD and it's a beauty. I really like some of the commentary features on the dvd. There's a commentary for Serenity, Shindig, Out of Gas, the Train job, Objects in Space, War stories and the Message there's lots o cool info from the audio talk about the show such as props on the set, characters, humor, camera FX, and Chinese theme of firefly..dong ma?

So I have a question, what do you think is the best commentary ( gives the best description, funniest, or has most info.. ) and who do you think is the best talker Tim Minear, Alan Tudyk, Jewel Staite, David Solomon ? Shawna Trpcic, Nathan Fillion, Morena Baccarin, Joss Wendon ?

And which person were you disappointed not to hear from, or who would you have liked to listen to in the audio commentary but they just weren't there on the dvd ?

Joss' commentary is ALWAYS the best IMO,
and his for 'Objects in Space' is to me the most meaningful because it really explains what he is doing and intends to do wth the whole series...

in fact with all of his creative life.

Best commentary: Serenity
Runner up: War Stories
Most interesting: Objects in Space

The others were a lot of fun though.

Who did I wish? Well, I'm a bit disappointed that each of the cast didn't do at least one. I especially kind of wanted to see Sean Maher and Summer Glau (maybe doing Safe? Or Ariel?), oh, and Adam Baldwin of course (maybe for Jaynestown or for Ariel again).

And I really wanted commentaries for Ariel and Our Mrs. Reynolds

I agree with embers about Joss' commentary on "Objects in Space," and for second place I would choose Tim Minear and David Solomon on "Out of Gas."

I wish that every cast member could have been represented, especially Adam Baldwin and Ron Glass, and even though I adore Jewel, they should have had Alan and Gina do a commentary together.

I definitely would have loved a commentary from Adam Baldwin on Jaynestown, or really any commentary on that ep! Serenity is my favorite though--Joss is so amazing when he has someone to talk to lol (not that he isn't always amazing, but who's seen my all time fave, the commentary on Wild at Heart with Joss, Marti Noxon, and Seth Green?)

I saw that commentary, and I thought Joss was kinda mean in that one. I'm not saying the man ain't a genius, but its people like us that caught the brunt of some of his harshest comments...Apparently, he's not a fan of internet fandom...

Kaylee: "What's so damn important about being proper? It don't mean nothing out here in the black."
Simon: "It means more out here. It's all I have..."

I can almost understand why some are none to kind to internet fandom

- Sometimes spoilers come out or unfouded rumors are spread on the net, other times scripts are leaked from upcoming movies or today people sometimes download the music or movie and put the shows, music or films at risk people of this non-legal activity

However I'm sure Joss would give it up for the fans of firefly and those who remain faithful to the cause, the internet fan group which has fueled the support for the show and the sites like this on the net which give the show and up coming film its full support. I think Joss would be very thankful to see how faithful the fans of firefly can be.

Still I think the audio Commentray with Joss on the dvds is great I hope he will also do more in the future, maybe after the firefly film comes out It would be great if others were in the dvd like Alan, Jewel, Gina or Nathan

It has to be Serenity. Joss and Nathan just crack me up through that one. I've been told that it's sad to watch commentaries on dvds but I'm trying to explain to my friends that watching the firefly commentaries is just like watching another episode or listening to stand up comedy it's so funny.

Joss: 'in the narrative I'm like explosions they're not human drama but when you're near one it's ...they're so pretty'

Well, my sister's a ship... we had a
complicated childhood

Hrm, can you clarify? I've listened to that commentary and I don't really remember any harshness toward fans. He makes fun of Charmed, Marti, Seth, himself, etc, but that's standard fare. Near the end he does talk about how the commentary is turning into fan gushing, but that's hardly harsh or even necessarily an insult. I haven't listened to it in a while though so I could be forgetting something.
