Re: Serenity: the movie
I had never seen the TV show. I got dragged to it by a bunch of people who REALLY liked the TV show. The theater was filled with people who obviously very much liked the TV show. I didn't like the bits of Buffy that I happened to watch by accident along the way. I was fully prepared to be disappointed and grumpy about having my time wasted.
The whole premise also bugged me a little bit. At its core, its a show glamorizing the James Gang, which doesn't sound like a good start to me.
That being said, I really liked the movie. I liked it enough to get a hold of the DVD of the show and watch it all in a fairly short time period.
I'll probably watch the movie again, since I know I missed out on some of the things that the real geeks were getting.
