Loert 2,520 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Judgment at Nuremberg (1961) Brilliant film with brilliant acting, particularly from Schell and Lancaster.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Just now, Jay said: Serenity is not a complicated film at all, though. Were you drinking when you watched it? It's not that it's complicated, it's just too vague. Summer Glau escapes from some space prison but she was never captured at the end of the series, so there's nothing to really bridge the show and film. Then the crew hops from planet to planet for some reason that's never made clear. It's one of Joss Whedon's haziest scripts where the plot fogs up behind all the action. Which is weird because the TV show was really clear and well written. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,475 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 The film is kind of like the second season the show never got, or maybe more like the 4th/5th season the show never got and we don't see depicted what happened between season 1 and it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember of SERENITY, that is a flashback, observed from security footage. It took place pre-FIREFLY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,475 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 That's right. It's not like she gets captured in between the show and the movie, its just flashback stuff to enrich the current plot with backstory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Like I said, vague script. Firefly/Serenity is sort of a cult where members are under some collective delusion that the franchise is flawless, and perfectly comprehensible.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 The whole bad guy plot never made sense to me. Then there was some virus on some planet that killed everyone, which was really left field. Then there's supposedly something special about Summer Glau (and pervy shots where her feet are ever prominent), but it never really goes anywhere. Whatever Joss was trying to do with this one, it missed the mark, but everyone gave it a thumbs up anyway. For some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naïve Old Fart 9,676 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 General consensus about SERENITY, is that it's the best STAR WARS film never made. Having a series that was axed halfway through its first season, certainly adds to the "mystique" that surrounds it. Who knows; it might have lasted six seasons, and gotten old very quickly. It didn't, however, and we're left with a tantalizing glimpse of what could have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
