Super SPOILER FILLED Serenity thread

[Tetsubo]

Something occurred to me at work last night... why didn't the crew loot Miranda? Within a couple of hours they would have netted enough money for all of them to retire...

Probably because the "pax" agent may still be active within the buildings air. Also, they were on a mission that second that saw that recording.

I thought Serenity was the best movie I have seen since Return of the King. No other movie has stirred up so much emotion in a long time. I am still in shock over the death of Wash. He was one of my most loved characters. My wife and I always loved the fact that a strong married couple was a part of the series and I will be sad to see that dynamic disappear.

I just hope they make more movies. The actors and the universe are too good to see their end with this movie.

They had suits. And "missions" need funding... these people are mercenaries. Warm fuzzy mercenaries for the most part, but mercenaries nonetheless...

Mal kicked a guy into an engine intake because he didn't like his attitude... they could have spared a few hours to become fabulously rich...

Maybe they did who knows. But they also went on mission they didn't think they would come back from so why loot.

Anyone else notice that the movie was basically a state Ninja vs. a ship full of Pirates? And at last we see that Pirates are clearly superior.

I TOTALLY was thinking that, especially in Mal's fight with the Operative...I half expected him to outright say that Pirates are better than Ninjas

Wonderful flick. Wonderful show. Me wanty more.

Fabulously rich, or fabulously raped to death, skinned and eaten (hopefully in that order). Recall that they are on the surface of the Reaver's home planet. Perhaps assuming that the nasties all left the surface, so that it'd be safe to make yoruself a sitting duck while looting, would be less than wise?

Of course, the Operative couldn't beat Mal in an unfair fight, so I'm not sure how he expected to be able to take down River...

 

[Jeremy]

Oh, the Operative could have beaten Mal in a fair, unfair, or just about any other kinda fight. But as the book says, he should have paid more attention to Mal's medical records.

You know what your sin is, Operative? Pride. You love your little final words to your opponents as they stand frozen. Rather than go for nerve clusters and go find your sword for your elegant finish, you should have just snapped my neck while you were behind me. Now lookit you there, shoulders all outta place... I'm all choked up. Honestly, there could be tears...

And he may also have access to River's conditioning pass phrases.
