"They can't take the sky from me. Well, I guess they can."
We started in on Firefly tonight. We watched the pilot with the commentary, which was hilarious. Joss and Nathan, cutting up. Then The Train Job which I hadn't seen for months and months. It doesn't get all that exciting, but it's good fun.
There was much sighing over Kaylee from both of us. I think it was only me who was sighing over Jayne.
It's hard to talk about this show in more depth because I will only start to think about how it was cancelled and then I will be deeply frustrated and sad. But I was very struck by the lighting, partly because Joss kept harping on it in the commentary. :) It's always a very real looking light, often a warm light inside the ship, especially in the mess. It's so different from any other scifi I've seen.
In other news, the boy and I were excitedly discussing our Monday (Monday!) RotK tix -- what time we should line up, where we should aim to sit, how one person shouldn't hold both tickets.
Hal: Of course, I could die horribly before Monday. If I'm dead, you should go to the movie anyhow. I suppose if I'm lying in the hospital ill, you could sit with me instead.
Boy: What if you were in a coma? If I were sick, I'd enjoy having you sit with me but if I'm in a coma, you should go to the movie.
We are fans.

This is *so* important - what if the person holding the tickets was, say, trapped in an elevator? Or even if it was the person without the tickets who was delayed, then the ticket-holder would have to hang around the theater lobby, waiting for the other person to show up, becoming more and more anxious and losing any chance of getting a good seat...disaster!
I have spent too much time considering these possibilities.

One of my all-time fave lines is from that series:
Wash: Psychic? That's sounds like science fiction!
Zoe: You live on a space ship, dear.
Wash: So?

Kaylee!
I keep hoping someone will get me Firefly for my birthday -- I hinted *heavily* to my sister a few weeks ago. Because what with buying the new computer/software and going to Escapade, I can't afford any DVDs.

But when it comes right down to it -- every man for himself, is my motto. Or woman.

I haven't been keeping up with the eps on Space cause I knew I'd have the DVDs soon. I think that's what I'll end up doing with SG1 S5 as well.

Everything is, indeed, all about Kaylee.
See, it's because I buy all these DVDs that I can't afford to go to any cons. *g*

And I suggest you stop buying DVDs in plenty of time to go to Vividcon this year.

And how exciting that you got preview tickets! And unless the other's presence is required to sign for life-saving hospital stuff, you should still go, imho .

I hope you can get DVDs. Here, the store wasn't even able to get in as many copies as people who wanted to reserve them. We were lucky.
