SERENITY is coming!! September 30!!

I CANNOT wait for the movie 'Serenity' to come out! I loved "Firefly" when it was originally on TV, even if it took four episodes to figure out who these people where. (Fox broadcasted the episodes out of order, so badly that the LAST episode shown was the PILOT)

For anyone who still hasn't figured out what all the fuss is about, try to imagine a brilliantly written 'Star Wars' movie where Han Solo is the main character. Joss Whedon (creator of 'Buffy: The Vampire Slayer,' 'Angel,' and 'Firefly') said in an interview in About.com:

"The idea behind Serenity in the first place really did have to do with the idea of the Millennium Falcon as a real concept. What if you were that guy, forget the aliens and the robots and the Force. What if you just had a crappy little spaceship and you had to make a living and you didn’t really care how? How hard would your life be? That to me, the reality of that fantasy is what makes it so fascinating and ultimately that’s the benchmark of everything I do. It’s finding the reality behind the fantasy no matter how absurd the fantasy may be."

Now how shiny is THAT?
