Wojo 2,456 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I always liked Jewel Staite, as she looks like the cute girl next door. I saw her first on Stargate Atlantis, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 39,661 Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 I immediately had a crush on Jewel Staite when I originally watched Firefly! Oddly, I didn't even remember Christina Hendricks whatsoever, and only learned she was in Firefly after I found out who she was once Mad Men hit big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,254 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I've never seen anything by Whedon except The Avengers, and I guess The Cabin In The Woods if you count that.

Jay 39,661 Posted January 11, 2014 Author Share Posted January 11, 2014 I've never seen Cabin in the woods, but The Avengers is the least Whedonesque thing of his I've seen.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,435 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I actually remember Jason watching it.Like Firefly it passed most people by, unlike Firefly, it didnt even cause a hype with the geeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,596 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I think he's excellent at banter, characters, and their interactions/dynamics.Indeed, I think that the interaction/dynamics of the characters is his specialty. Sorta like Tarantino but different. There' a natural spontaneous synergy between his characters. It doesn't feel forced or artificial. That's why I prefer Whedon and not Abrams for Disney's Star Wars movies, for interaction is what is sorely missing in the prequels.Note, because Whedom tends towards 'playfulness' and avoids being 'overserious', some people might find him a bit light on the drama side.Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A small community must survive and cope with a mysterious or alien threat? Right?I held the box in my hand but something told me that I was not going to like the series. Spielberg did produce that war thingy for HBO, although technically speaking, it's a miniseries.Talking about war miniseries, I finished the 5 episodes of Parade's End (Metacritic: 73%) and I didn't like it. It started off fairly okay but later it felt sloppy and rushed.Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 39,661 Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 Downton Abbey Season 4 (including Christmas Special) Overall a good season, but better than the depressing and repetitive Season 3. As much as I would have preferred that they didn't kill off Cybil AND Matthew, seeing how the characters move on without them has been well-done. A lot of times on the show the stories for the staff members are more interesting than the Granthams themselves, but this year everyone got interesting stories. The rape and murder storyline was a bit dragged out for sure, but the way it resolved, and then the extra coda in the Christmas Special was nice. The only repetitive storyline this year was Mary leading two suitors along, didn't that happen enough in the early years? The christmas special was hilarious in that Tom and Mary's children didn't appear once, as they covert about Downton and Londo and whatever else, not even once did they mention or ask about their kids lol.

Matt C 480 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hit & MissIt's an interesting one-off series. I can see where people would group this in with Paul Abbott's Shameless (a group of children being forced to grow up quickly with the loss of a parent), but it lacks a lot of that black humor and it's well... grim at times. The plot is certainly a high-concept one: a transgender hit woman (Chloe Sevigny) finds herself thrown for a loop when her ex-girlfriend dies, leaving her as the legal guardian of their children. It mostly treats the concept seriously without being ridiculous, but the tonal shifts can be jarring -- one moment Mia is trying to bond with her four young charges, and then the next scene has her ruthlessly offing her next target. That sort of thing.I do like the questions it poses, and it never goes for an easy way out. Would've liked to see how a second season would've fared.
