I saw Serenity today, and it was excellent. Much better than anything that Lucas or the Wachowski brothers have produced. Joss Whedon is a master story teller. The writing, acting, directing, and special effects were all excellent. Seeing the movie makes me want to watch the DVDs all over again. I don’t know if there will be a sequal, but there was room left for one.
I also got to see the trailer for The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardobe. It also looked good.
Hmph. Being out in the boonies where cable comes via tin can and strings, I never saw Fyrefly, so Serenity will be new for me, as and if it gets out here. But Wallace & Gromit’s Curse of the Were Rabbit is here, and I’m gonna go three more times to see how many of the little zingers, both visual and auditory, I missed first time through. I know I missed a lot, because I was laughing too hard to catch them as they zipped past.
