Serenity

As I mentioned earlier, I saw Serenity. For those of your that haven’t seen it, (and you must), the first 9 minutes of the movie are online.This lays out the setting and back story of the movie. More background info can be found on Serenity’s Wikipedia entry.

Also here is a good article/essay about the philosophy behind Firefly/Serenity… Out to the Black
The existentialist libertarianism of Joss Whedon’s space western

    Dan!
    A whole crew here at Lawson McGhee went to the screener before it opened and loved it. I am hoping that it will eventually expand into the trilogy Whedon originally envisioned. Hope things down the street are well.

    Somehow, I figured you would make it to an advance screening. :-)
