Never saw the whole reavers explanation coming, pleasant surprise, or Wash's death, not so pleasant :cry: I guess that was required, it was a movie after all. I think it wouldn't have happened in the tv series tho, so I'll just pretend it didn't happen:wink: If you haven't seen the series, download it. It promises much even after seeing the movie.

yeah, it kinda submerges the character development that was going to be addressed in the series, but has the same dynamic and explains a part of the series.

What'd you think of his other stuff? I liked Buffy, lol, ok it was my religion for a while. Angel was ok, not as good in my opinion, Angel's broodiness kinda brought it down for me.
