Oh come on now! |
Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

I can think of several black and white films that are so much better than Serenity. People must have very short memories. |
Serenity is good, but the best? What are they smoking over there in the land of tea and crumpets? and is it possible to have a few thousand grams sent over to my house? |

Serenity better than Star Wars? Get knotted! And what was 2001 doing all the way at the bottom of the list, whoever compiled that needs some serious schooling. The Matrix? |
Serenity was a gift to the hardcore "Brown Coats" community. Having seen the film before watching all the Firefly episodes on DVD, think it's one of those movies that requires watching the television series to appreciate. It's a fairly entertaining movie on it's own, but legendary like Star Wars? I don't think so. |
Beware the beast, man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him, drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death.

I slept through the first one and turned the second one off 20 minutes into it. Saying that I like 2001 and a lot people view it in a similar way. |
