Serenity
Alas, I saw it. On opening night. let me just say that i am very happy that it did so well on opening weekend. number 2. awesome. hooray for joss whedon. as we all know: joss is boss. okay, now on to the important things. did i like it? of course. what isn't to like? the actors are all top rate and i already loved them from firefly. the action and effects were typically very good. The dialogue is awesome! it matches the hilarity of the show. i actually laughed through my tears many times. They showed us reavers! they were disturbing. just the way they moved. it was very well done in showing they were evil. (it also explains how reavers came to be. very cool.) All of the good things happen like couples get together, we figure out what exactly has been making river crazy, and mal FINALLY admits his feelings for Inara. The bad guy is very well played. he is slightly disturbing. the ending also left it open for a sequel. now to the bad news... i don't think i would care for a sequel. i cried for ten minutes in the middle of the movie and then for at least a solid half hour at the end and i couldn't stop crying after it ended. i was sniffling all the way home and had to watch firefly when i arrived home at 1 am to make me feel better. all i will say is that 2 people die. i was traumatized. i forgive joss. he had to do it to make the events monumental for the characters. it makes complete sense... it just isn't fun in that respect. despite this, i think i will be seeing it again this weekend and i highly recommend it to you all. I will buy it the second it comes out and add it to my library. i will watch it often. i will probably cry and certainly laugh. go out and support it. the future is worth fighting for. (cheesy, i know. it is just what the movie poster says.) The end is worth it. it is very fitting and cute and you leave the film with a good feeling. everyone did the right things and there are allusions to all of the best moments in firefly. i will close with this sentiment: "i am a leaf on the wind. watch me soar."

It's about time you had a new post. Sheeshe. you dropped off the face of the blogging planet for a while there.
i know... i am a slacker. i just have very limited time and when i do have some time... i typically don't want to spend it writing on the blasted computer. it is nice to know i was missed.
WElcome home.
thank you. i saw serenity again today. i will just say that it is better the second time.
I like to spell sheesh with an e at the end.
as you should. spell with e thing, that is.
I'm sorry to say that I only read about half of your blog. I stopped reading it because I wanted to see the movie for myself and not find out what happens. Gosh.
LIAR! you are just lazy. you don't really care. also, i did not give toooooo much away. if you would like to see it... i could accompany you. also... if you read this today... HA! we could watch a movie tonight. you know, like, swimfan. or somesing.
Hey, pooface. I think you should have a combined Birthday/Halloween party on October 29th. It's only a week before your birthday. Everyone would agree, I'm sure, that this is a fabuloso idea. Please comply.
sounds pretty dang good to me. we can go to DI and get sweet costumes. fun.
debbie wants to have a combined b-day party for the two of us. this would be a wonderful arrangement: pary for me, D, and halloween in one. it sounds very proficient. i agree... as long as i get cool presents.
Whatevah! no presents fo' you!
Do you think we're made of money, or something? Gosh. What a head full of dreams.
You are made of money compared to me. I want a present that isn't a gas card...and I know there are some fantastic gems at the Big! Lots, so get shoppin'! Just kidding, you guys are present enough for me.
huzzah huzzah. i must be quick. you are all aces. do we want to combine the three? and are we going to do this at ali's? and how about you guys go with me to a HAUNTED HOUSE! yay!
All three combined. Ask Ali about her house. Her email is alpo_in_a_can@hotmail.com if you'd like to ask her in that fashion. I'm up for a haunted house if I am forewarned and I have time.
nikki? you are up for a haunted house? i am shocked and very excited. let us do it soon. like maybe this weekend. we will see. you could even invite boys (jakeman, bman, etc.) if you wanted to.
DAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay.
I know your motives behind consenting, debbie. you can't hide them from me. But, I will admit that haunted houses are great places for hand grabbing. The best schemers have even used the haunted house excuse, so I don't blame you.
can anyone do anything on friday? maybe not the haunted thing. dumb nikki. i mean... cool. i understand if the answer is no. NIKKI! are you ever hanging out with jake? invite him to something. kiss him. no more waiting. the end.
He doesn't want to kiss me! Actually, he probably does, he just never will. I really have nothing to worry about. I really have given up.
Write a new blog, Trisha!!!
OKAY!!! perhaps i will tonight. i have nothing to write about. maybe boys.
