A Heaping Plate of My Thoughts I’m so far behind in my banal descriptions of media that I’ve recently consumed. So to catch up over the next couple of days I will just fling a whole fist-full of opinions, spaghetti-like, at you and see what sticks.
First up, “Serenity” the long awaited theatrical adaptation of the beloved Joss Whedon Sci-Fi show killed in its infancy by FOX. I’m sure you are aware I was a fan of the show and have turned quite a few people onto it since it debuted on DVD. SO the Movie finally came out and it was pretty great. For a fan of the show it was like an early Christmas present what with all the great character development and resolving of long-standing plot-lines (and some pretty shocking surprises too.) It also represents a very cool achievement in filmmaking as it is a glossy sci-fi space-opera that looks like a hundred million bucks but really only cost 40 million. It was even produced in Hollywood as opposed to Canada or over-seas! Unfortunately the box-office numbers haven’t been very good…
