I don't remember seeing this here before, but the Weekly Standard has an article on line entitled The Browncoats Rise Again.

It's from June, 2005, so obviously before Serenity came out.

My favorite line was probably:

Think of it as Star Wars, if Han Solo were the main character, and he still shot Greedo first.

So true!

Posted by Lyrhawn (Member # 7039) on :

Heh.

Quite.

Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :

TO CONQUER THE WORLD!

He did still shoot first. *sings* They can't take that away from me... [Wink]

Han shot first
There were no sequels to The Matrix
Star Trek V was never made
Neither were Episodes 1-3

These things I believe, and nothing will sway me.

YES! Exactly. Hear, hear. Huzzah. And all that rot.

I just saw Serenity in the theater again...in Bryn Mawr! It was a midnight movie showing of it and they had about 100 people show up for it which was great

Lisa, You forgot "Alien 3 and 4 never happened" and "Highlander 2 was just a dream"

Do you have a brochure for your beliefs, starLisa? I'm very interested [Big Grin]
