Serenity and TV
Friday night I drove down to LA to go see Serenity with my friend Matt. It was already his second time watching it. I’ve become a big Firefly fan recently, and the movie was incredible. Now I’m a super fan and I pray to God that they give us more in either movie or TV form. I’m loving everything Joss Whedon touches (except Alien Resurrection, which may not be entirely his fault). I also loved the movie so much I saw it again Saturday night with my brother. And I may very well go for the triple play and see it today with my girlfriend. I figure they could use my money anyway. I also got Angel seasons 3-5 on DVD in the mail today. Never got a chance to see them on TV, well, not in their entirety and in sequence. More Whedon goodness for my enjoyment. Back to Serentiy, I think it’s been well received by those watching it, but I don’t think the box office success will be anything staggering. Hopefully the support of fans will help revive Firefly/Serenity. Heck they brought back Family Guy based on DVD sales.
I also download all the available episodes of Prison Break as I never get a chance to watch TV on schedule. I’m loving this show. Can’t wait for the next episode on Monday. I was also recommended to watch Veronica Mars, so I got the entire season rather quickly (thanks bittorrent). I watched about 4 episodes and I really like it. I didn’t think it was my kinda thing. It’s about a girl in high school that’s like a private investigator in her spare time. The writing is pretty good, I think the writers worked on Buffy. So I’m good with the entertainment stuff, playing Half-Life 2, and several seasons of television.
Go see Serentiy! You don’t have to watch the show to get it, but it helps.
