The Guns of Firefly?

[LawDog]

Ah, Firefly, about the most quotable series ever shown on network TV.

You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here. -- Jayne

Stegosaurus: "Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.'"
Allosaurus: "I think we should call it 'your grave!'"
Stegosaurus: "Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"
Allosaurus: "Har har har! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die!" --Wash and his plastic dinosaurs.

If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater. --Shepard Book

It's my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of him was one kind of sumbitch or another. -- Mal

Nothing worse than a monster who thinks he's right with God. -- Mal

You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you? -- Jubal Early

You killed yourself, son. I just carried the bullet for a while. -- Mal

This news made my day. Here is the link to the site, if you click on trailers, and choose windows media, you can download a 135 mb trailer.

Strange that the rest of the links are from the cast appearance at Wizard World. Pretty cool though! Thanks!

 

[Strings]

Heh... well now, isn't that... special?

Sorry... Book's dialog through Our Mrs Renyolds STILL cracks Spoon and I up...

 

[ScorpioVI]

Thought you guys might enjoy this series of comic strip from PVPonline...

 

[ScorpioVI]

Another comic strip...

 

[Augustwest]

ROFLMAO ^

 

[George Hill]

That was awesome.

To add to Lawdogs quotes

Bystander at burning-Shes a witch!
Mal-Yeah, but shes our witch(cocking shotgun) now cut her the hell down!

 

[SiG Lady]

It still hurts...

I miss Firefly so much I can't even describe it. One of the best things to hit the television screen. Disappeared suspiciously suddenly. Just proves it was better than most everything else airing at the time. I was mortified.

 

[ScorpioVI]

Yea, I can't get enough of Firefly. I watch the episodes over and over again. I persuaded a buddy of mine (also a THR member) to buy the DVDs last week (sight unseen). He got the DVDs on Saturday and watched all but one episode over the weekend. He was holding off on watching Objects in Space because he knew there was no more to be had after that.

I've been reading this book called Finding Serenity, which is really just a collection of essays about Firefly and why it appeals to so many of us. Very interesting reads with lots of insights from the writers.

Also, don't forget to order the Serenity comic books by Whedon. 6 of the 9 covers are published. I've already pre-ordered all 6 covers but so far my favorite is the Hitch cover (Jayne).

 

[SiG Lady]

A little info needed...

How many pages is the book, Finding Serenity...? Amazon has it listed but I don't see number-of-pages anywhere...

 

[ScorpioVI]

Paperback: 240 pages

It's a little further down that page under Product Details. I can't confirm since I left the book at home.

 

[Josh]

Bout a page or so back somebody asked what Jayne's carryin' when he says "Let's be bad guys" in the trailer.

Well, havin' seen the screenin' on the 5th, It looked to me, (an' I WAS lookin') that it's a gussied up MP5. There were quite a few tarted up HK's. I'm fair sure that was one of 'em.

Had me a plan to build a VERA out of a Saiga.

Then I really looked at her.

Have ya really looked at her?

It'd be one thing to build on on an airsoft platform. But it is obvious to me that the feller what designed VERA had no intention of ever shooting live 12 GA ammo out of her.

The forend is all skinny right angles and uncomfortableness and the stock is a 1" wide 6" tall piece of steel jutting at a right angle from the rear of the weapon. Bout as comfy as a tooth extraction.

Pass.

[George Hill]

Don't know what a Vera is... but I just orded the series from Amazon and paid bonus to ship it fast.

I aim to misbehave.

 

[zpo]

Best choice you ever made...

 

[ScorpioVI]

Josh,

If you ever want to build an airsoft mock-up of Vera. Let me know. My best buddy owns one of the largest airsoft retailers in the country.

I tried to get tickets to the screening, missed out by hours both times! Argh!

Since you've already seen the movie. Was there an abundance of guns and gunfights in Serenity?






George, like what zpo said. Buying the DVDs will be one of the best choices you will make in this life.



Another comic strip for y'all:

 

[ajkurp]

I bought the DVD set on Claire Wolfe's recommendation. My wife, daughter and I LOVED it!

Do not make my mistake. I loaned it to a buddy- who now makes excuses why it hasn't come home yet.

Sure. HE has it. And I'M in the doghouse.

 

[George Hill]

No, this is my 3rd best choice.
1st is my CZ P-01, second is my Bronco.... then comes Firefly.
I can say this because I've not even seen firefly yet. We shall see... it's coming... and I wait impatiently.

 

[nomadboi]

Those who object to the recycled guns being used as lasers in Firefly... do you have the same feelings about all the WWII firearms being used in the original Star Wars trilogy?

Just asking- same thing, really...

 

[zpo]

There is only 2 lasers in Firefly, and only one works. The rest are just talked about. The guns the crew of Serenity uses are projectile weapons, they just sound like lasers because of the different powders from different planets sound, um, different when burned.

 

[walking arsenal]

wow, rayra, just now none of those pics worked

 

[ScorpioVI]

OMG!!!

A friend just told me about a hilarious easter egg on the Firefly DVDs. I won't tell you what it is (it involves Jayne), but it had me rolling! Funny as hell!

Here's how to find it.

* Pop in Disc 4
* Go to "Special Features"
* Go to "More"
* Highlight "Joss Sings The Firefly Theme"
* Press Left on your controller
* That little squiggly symbol to the left of the picture of the cast should now be highlighted yellow.
* Hit Enter and enjoy!

Since you've already seen the movie. Was there an abundance of guns and gunfights in Serenity?

Pah-Lenty, my good man. ALL You can eat. Think it's not a spoiler ta say that EVERYONE on the crew takes up arms. It is a joy to behold. I'll be there again, one week from today at the second screening.

Keep Flyin'

 

[George Hill]

I've enjoyed disks 1 and 2 today.

This is the best show ever. EVER. And I've never seen it before today?

/in chinese

Arguably the best written scripts ever put to TV.

Can you keep track of all the guns? I'm glad I got the DVDs because you have to screen cap and zoom to get a look at all of them. Awesome show... best ever.

 

[SiG Lady]

Believers are everywhere (fortunately)...

"...This is the best show ever. EVER."

That's what I keep telling people.
