Firefly

[Liam]

Is it worth picking up the whole series on DVD?

I watched Serenity, and really enjoyed it, but have never seen any of the TV series. Is it any good?

[Timmoru Suzuki]

YES! I was like you, seen Serenity, but not Firefly, brought the box-set, and FUCKING LOVED it. Its a great, great series, that I can't rate highly enough.

And, all the characters that were great in the film, are even greater in the TV series. I'll probably talk more about the show later.

[therockbox]

Yeah, it's awesome. I bought it on a whim about a month ago, and I've already watched it through twice. Brilliant series.

[BlackFlagg]

Very worth it, try Walmart, was there the other day and had the series for $20

I'm from England.

But last time I checked HMV, it was there for £17.99

Definitely get it, it's an absolutely amazing show. Watch Firefly, then watch Serenity again and Serenity will have an even greater impact.

I loved Firefly when it was on which made me really mad about how Serenity ended up. Awesome movie but I hated the end. To answer your question though yes it is worth it.

[Lord Nibbler]

Fuck yes. I bought the box set before Serenity came out, since I never caught it when it was on TV. It was brilliant, better than the film.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

What was wrong with the end? The only bit I didn't like was the zero explanation into Shepherd Book's past.

And for £17.99 it's a fucking steal.

[Farmer Reil]

Yesyesyesyesyes. I got it for Crimbo, mostly due to JHS's hype, and the fact that Nathan Fillion was in it, and the fact that I'd just come off two months of watching every Buffy episode in order with my housemates (one of them got the boxset).

It was awesome. A shame that the Curse of Nathan Fillion had to interfere Seriously, does EVERY show he's in get prematurely cancelled, or is it just me?

[Ananas]

I loved both, preferred the series. However I saw Firefly before Serenity, so that might have something to do with my preference. You'll probably take more from the film if you've seen the series, so I'd recommend picking it up, especially considering how cheap its become.

[K]

The biggest question is why do you not already own it? It's so good.

[Liam]

I'd never heard of it until the film came out....well, until after the film, and I saw it in HMV.

A girl dragged me to see it, so thats why I knew nothing.

[Guest Ringo Masterson 27]

A girl? You must marry her, for she has great taste. Unless she's ugly. *insert wise crack about English girls*

But to get back to the topic, it's imperative that you buy Firefly. Hell, buy anything Joss Whedon has made.

[Liam]

Is the series set before, during, or after the movie, out of interest?

Before, the movie starts a little while after the series.

[Your Mom]

There wouldnt have been a movie if stupid Fox hadn't cancelled the series. FUCK YOU FOX!

[Timmoru Suzuki]

Put it this way: Buy the series, or reavers will get you.
