This should be fun, since we’ve not done a liveblog on the new site with the new comment system. If this is your first liveblog ever, welcome and sit down for a brief instruction on how these things go down.
1) This is where the liveblog will take place. You can bookmark this page.
2) The liveblog starts at 11am PST. That’s 2pm on the east coast and 7pm in London. Consult a world clock if you aren’t sure what time it starts!
3) At exactly 11am PST, press play on your copy of Serenity! Inevitably, you may be a few seconds ahead or behind other people, but that’s ok.
4) COMMENT. That’s it. We are all going to be sharing our thoughts, emotions, reactions, and CAPS LOCK GIF PARTIES throughout the duration of the film.
It is literally that simple!
I will post a recap tomorrow afternoon with my thoughts of the film and then ask for what you guys thought. And then everything will be sad because that’s it. 🙁
Well…actually, I’m going to get ahold of the graphic novels ASAP and I’ll post one-off reviews of those over on Mark Reads! And then it will all be over. Sad times.
Anyway, if you have any questions, let me know. See you tomorrow!
Ohh Mal, you're so dark and tortured. And love Zoe sfm in that scene with Mal.
Jayne's thoughts on Reavers are so entertaining. "I'll kill a man in a fair fight. Or if I think he's gonna start a fight. Or…"
Aw, Kaylee, don't be sad.
Inara!!! We miss you!!
WHy is this all so bleak? OH GOD SO SAD.
This movie is SRSLY bleak. It's not a happy world. I mean, it wasn't ever a happy world, was it?
I hope everybody noticed River sniffing the bed in the movie of Inara's shuttle
It's one of my favorite River!moments, tbh <3
This was the first time I did. Oh River. <3
Oh Mal/Inara. So forced.
YAY WE MENTIONED BOOK!
"I been to the edge. Look like more space."
I miss Book. Book kicked ass. Also, Book was the KING of completely unknown crazy backstories.
omg Inara 🙁 🙁 🙁
Are going to angst a little bit? Oh yes we are.
Awww Inara. Mal misses you!
'oh, just TELL HER, Simon.
Lol @ River sniffing Inara's bed.
Love Kaylee's expression when Jayne is talking about his reasons to fight
Mal, need to let them hug!!
whoa, what happened to my grammar!
'And don't ride in anything with a Capisan 38 engine, they fall right out of the sky!'
One of my favorite Kaylee lines ever!
AWWWWW KAYLEE STOP BEING SAD 🙁 🙁 🙁
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MINE STOPPED WORKING WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. I guess this is what I get for watching on online (my copy is at hooooome).
Kaylee, break my heart some more why don't you. JEEZ.
They fall RIGHT out of the sky.
Ooh, first time I noticed the news report talking about the reavers.
Awww Kaylee. I feel for you.
And don't fly in anything with a Capissan 38 engine, they fall right out of the sky.
Aw Kaylee, you're so adorable =)
Seriously, she is wonderful
Awww, Kaylee.
It isn't safe………for them
Kaylee…. You make my heart hurt.
Awh Kaylee!
And oh god, River – 'for them…'
"OH GOD I CAN'T KNOW THAT"
"I could stand to hear a bit more."
Oh, Jayne, never change.
PS: I WANT THE HAT BACK :C
LOL AT MAL FREAKING ABOUT KAYLEE'S TALK OF SEX. I LOVE THEIR RELATIONSHIP SO SO MUCH.
He's such a father towards her. I love it!
"nothin' twixt my nethers weren't run on batteries"
"I could stand to hear more"
Joss writes the best dialogue.
Ain't had nothin' twixt my legs weren't run on batteries! ILU KAYLEE.
Like that little note about the massacres and the survivors in the vault. GO MAL!
I love Kaylee in this scene. 'Going on a year now…'
And Mal & Jayne's reactions…amazing!!!!
Lol desperate!Kaylee and perv!Jayne.
fanty and mingo. Fred and george; IN SPACE. specially the "i'm fanty he's mingo"
They really really are and I never made that connection! All the way down the to fancy clothes. That's the crazy space equivalent of F&G's dragonhide jackets.
Why do I love the spinning gun check in thingy so much?
KAYLEE AND JAYNE, BOTH OF YOU PLEASE NEVER CHANGE.
KAYLEE BEST LINE EVER.
Kaylee WOULD use a vibrator. I'm so proud of her for saying that.
Oh, Kaylee, I love you!
"Tell that to Inara."
You tell him, Kaylee!
"Tell that to Inara."
OH BURN
OH SHIT
NEED SOME IIICE
Going on a year, ain't had nothing 'twixt my nethers not run on batteries.
Hahaha!
LOL Kaylee!
Fanty's prettier =P
My muscular buttocks it's 40.
I like Jayne's muscular buttocks <<
>>
hehe
'twixt my nethers is the best Kaylee line EVER.
That advert HAUNTS MY DREAMS
IL the twins. 🙂
"My muscular butt it's forty."
…I could stand to hear a little more.
Such a wonderful shot of River coming down the stairs
God these guys are dicks. Why are all criminals di-
OH SHI
Oh not good not good not good NOT GOOD
Miranda. AND SHIT GETS REAL!
SO FUCKING CRAZY RIGHT NOW. LOVE IT.
At least Zoe and Wash are happy (ish)…
Summer Glau is awesome. That is all.
Everythings about to get crazy!
OMG I AM LATE fast fowarding the netflix to minute 32 (Hey, I saw this movie originally in the early screenings, with less music and stuff, and a bajillion times since then, I CAN DO THIS).
PS Fanty and Mingo. <3 Such pretty scumbags.
Oh, no! Bad clock, it’s slow! Ok, AFTER River does her Shiva, the Destroyer dance I’ll fast forward a couple minutes.
This fucking comment is always ahead of the others. Why is that? Can it go away?
What's that sound? THE SOUND OF SHIT GETTING REAL
XD Some of the lines are awesome in this movie and good for Kaylee for getting a good come back in.
Fruity oaty bars make a man out of a mouse
Fruity oaty bars make you bust out of your blouse
Eat them all the time
Then they'll blow your mind…
Damn, I miss my hookah pipe!
MIRANDA!
Such a hauntingly good shot and then RIVER STARTS KICKING EVERYONE'S ASS
SUMMER GLAU IS A GODDESS.
Oh. Oh my, River.
HOLY SHIT RIVER!!!
'Do you know that girl?'
'I really don't.'
River is so amazing in this scene.
BADASS
RIVER IS THE VERY BEST BADASS OF ALL TIME
SHE WILL KICK YOU PRETTY AND SQUASH YR BALLS
Even more badass since Summer did all (or at least nearly all) of her own stunts. Trufax. And this bragging has everything to do with my ladycrush on her, yes.
I can’t remember where I heard this conversation, but apparently the stunt director said to Joss, “Hey, Summer can kick behind herself, around a pole, and kick a guy in the head.” and Joss said, “Let’s do that!”
NGL, when I visited Japan over the summer, I sang 'Fruity Oaty Bar' roughly every 5 minutes.
Did she just grab Jayne's "nethers"?
Yup
She knows people's weaknesses. 😀
Fruity Oaty Bars!!!!!!!!
But is Jayne not getting more awesome? "Hey, a tussle!"
<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v40/kretch1967/gifs/Firefly/2pt2tqg.gif" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
That pole was added after they found out just how flexible Summer really is.
River you are so freaking awesome!! And no Mal you really don't
River hitting Jayne in the crotch = awesome. And kind of deserved.
BEST. SCENE. EVARRRRR.
Best fight scene ever. The slow motion at the beginning of rivers fight was to show it from her point of view.
Joss Whedon signature, the petite woman kicking all the men's asses!
I hate breaking out tropes, but WAIF-FU!
Except for the flip and the handspring, that fight is all Summer Glau
HOLY CRAP!!!! River kicks some serious ASS!
I like seeing it from River's point of view. It's a nice callback to the stick-gun bit from the last episode.
Also, great fight scene!
Did she just go crazy and fall asleep?!!
Joss put the around the column kick in just because Summer Glau can do it. She is the Best.
WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED
She just went crazy and fell asleep!
River just beat up an entire dive bar and then, uh, got tired.
Did you think you were prepared?
SHE'S A KILLER-WOMAN
I always feel so bad for River here. What the HELL did they do to her that she just goes into murderous rages and has no clue?
I know right? I would hate to know I was hurting innocent people and had no control over it.
Oh, Wash. <3.
BEST FIGHT SCENE EVER OMG.
<img src="http://imgur.com/Yq1Nh.gif">
O.o What just happened?
'Start with the part where Jayne gets knocked out by a 90 pound girl.' Love Wash.
"Don't say it!"
"It only works on her Jayne."
"It only works on her."
"WELL, NOW THAT I KNOW THAT!"
LOL ILU JAYNE
"Start with the part where Jayne gets knocked out by a ninety pound girl, because I don't think that's ever getting old!"
The phrase Simon says to knock River out is Russian, I think it's loosely translated too "The chickens find this ridiculous."
that is AMAZING.
Yeah, it's an idiom that's roughly equivalent to "What silliness!"
I never knew that! That just makes it so much better!
Damn, it really is.
I didn't ever catch it before though, his accent is horrible.
Jayne you are wonderful
Loljayne
DAMN Mal.
Damn, Mal!
lol Jayne.
How did Mal get a medal of honor for the battle of Serenity? Isn't that when the browncoats fell? Who was around to pass out medals?
eta kurum na smeck – laughter for the chickens. It's Russian.
Jayne's eating the frozen grapes he was using.
