    I have to agree that that was cool KingNor, but IIRC from the FIrefly DVDs they say that there were basically two sets for the ship setting side by side, the upper deck, and the lower cargo hold, so unless they stacked the two up they had to have made some subtle cut in there. Oh and yes the living quarters were sperate sets as well.

    This thread is just funny.

    A dub would be interesting, if they got a good voice cast, maybe one like the GitS or Planetes crews, maybe the new Area 88. I actually watch most of anime dubbed right now, mostly because I also work on the computer or do other things at the same time. THe first time through I may sit and actually watch it, but after that I usually just have it on as background, as I do with most DVDs I own. Also let's hope it is not hard dubbed.

    You won't be totally clueless if you haven't seen the series, but it helps ot have watched, the beginning is written in such a way that you are brought up to speed quickly. Mostly what you will miss are the little quirks. I think the movie did, for the most part, neatly wrap up the major storylines of the series. But, new storylines can be introduced, let's face it, now that people know that the Alliance created the Reavers, there will be Hell to pay. A second civil war could easily erupt because of that and the crew would be right there in the middle of it. That alone will give a lot of story possibilities. Plus the crew is basically on their own now, the assassin all but wiped out their support network, killing everyone who gave them shelter in the past. So there again you have stories that can be developed. They will probably have to bring on another character or two to fill the voids left by Book and Wash, and let's face it, Zoe may leave the ship, there will be a lot painful memories aboard now, especially on the bridge. I'm hopefully that we will at least get the two sequels, but I doubt we will get another series, too bad really.

    I agree, when Wash died, and so soon after Book, my thought was "Dang man how many of the crew are you going to kill." Then when ZOe took that sword hit tot he back and went down, I was shocked again, and thought "will any of the crew survive?" It drew you that much more into it, no miraculous saves, no bringing back from the dead, the characters are mortal and can be killed, and several did. As for what Exco said about sound in space I will have to watch it again, but from what I remember you only hear sound when you are inside the skin of the ship. Everything else is done with music, a gun fires you get a bang in the music, but no audio FX. ANyway I loaned my copy of Firefly to a friend this weekend so he could watch it, he is through disk three right now, so we will probably see it this weekend.

    Saw it, loved it. Books death was surprising, but not completely unforseen, the biggest issue I have with it is that now we can never really get his backstory, except as a, god forbid, prequel. Washes death was a serious surprise, I mean they had just gottne away, that was when Zoe should have grabbed him and shoved her tongue down his throat, but no they killed him. That is what made it so shocking, not only was an invested in character but the death was so sudden and from out of nowhere, ti made it very real. Mr Universe, ok we all saw that coming, complete single story character. As for the assassin turning sides, that is not too surprising after seeing what he saw. For the first time he saw what his masters were trying to create and saw the aftermath of it, that kind of thing can have a serious effect on a person. Kaylee seemed one happy camper at the end, of course I wouldn't mind going twixt her nether myself, though she is a little young for me. All in all I think the movie was great and wrapped up the series well, I hope there will be sequels and maybe some new crew introduced. I also hope that Wash was able to leave Zoe a little something, though that would make her a single mother. And the ending was just great with the one part flying off. I will ahve to see it again with my friends after they have had a chance to watch the series this week.

    Knight26 replied to captain america's topic in Toys

    Cap'n she looks awesome, one question. For those of us, like me, whose modelling skills, and facilities are limited, how difficult will this conversion be? Are we talking here a straight out part swap where little mroe then a screwdriver is needed, or will we need to be cutting parts? And on a related note, who wants to build mine up custom and how much if I provide the parts?
  15. Knight26
    Good point DH, maybe I will suggest it when I get to Edwards, of course what would be super cool would be an X-29, number 2 with the VTC, reengine it with the F-414 and Thrust vectoring. Oh man now that would be sweet, and i doubt anything in the sky could touch it in a 1v1 engagement.
  16. Knight26
    Oh and I will be working with the 418th FTS, they work primarily with heavies and well their current test subject is variable.
  17. Knight26
    Like I said, if I have a house by then I will consider hosting it, I will even look into the possibility of a facilities tour, but that would mroe then likely just encompass the base museum, which is open to the public. At a minimum I will host a BBQ for RSVPed MWers and friends after the airshows from now on, a mini-con of sorts. On a related note the fact that I will be moving really hit home tonight, I know it is early, but I packed up all my valks, save the three at work. I also packed up all my aircraft models and toys at my apartment. I plan to start packing up all my non-essentials this weekend as well as go through all my things and decide what to keep or get rid of. I won't have a yardsale, but the local Salvation Army will be getting a hefty donation. Tomorrow I will start in earnest looking for a home loan, a realtor and a house. I doubt I will have one before I move out there, but I will get started. I will in the meanwhile start looking for an apartment I can get a month to month lease at, so that I can get out as soon as I find a house. Man 53 days, 53 days and counting.

    Unfortunately I might not make the airshow this year because of possible commitments with my current job, which I plan to try and weasel out of. And G72 I am a civilian, no I won't be a test pilot, but I will be workign with them, formulating their flight profiles. Think of me as more like Yang Neuman from Macross Plus. Now, can I get a custom rank, something like New Edwards Commander, or Yang Neuman is my Biotch, lol. If I do make the airshow I will let you all know, and we should get together, maybe I will get to meet some of my soon to be coworkers at the same time.

    Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, put your hands together for EDWARDS AFB NEWEST FLIGHT TEST ENGINEER!!!!! Yes I got the offer, and they have set the start date for 14 November!!!!! If I have a house by then I offer it up for MWCon next year and we will official chirsten it New Edwards!!!! PS Can you tell I am super excited?
  20. Knight26
    It's a nice thought DH, and believe me I would love to see it, but it could never happen. The mounting lugs for the F-404 and F-414 are in different places. Boeing convinced the engineers at P&W, or is it GE, I forget to change the lug configuration and spacings in order to keep such a thing from happening. I mean come on do you really think the navy would be as shot in tail with the Super Hornet if they could just re-engine the existing hornet and get a much better fighter?

    ALso Sharon is less likely to put up too much of a struggle due to her pregnancy and the risk that she could lose the baby.
  23. Knight26
    Crud I just saw that I am not on the list either, can this be rectified, I would like just 1 set for now?
  24. Knight26
    I haven't had a virus problem is years, mind you I am also usually pretty selective in who I IM, especially if they want to send me files. Anyhow, this topic can be closed I have taken care of the problem.
  25. Knight26
    sure but I doubt you will figure it out, unless he pesters you too
