So I saw Serenity today and I'm completely broken. I love, hate and everything in-between Joss - He broke me good and proper and I'm still reeling from it all with my brain slowly dripping out my ears. I wanted to put my thoughts together in a pretty little package but I can't - there is just so much to take in and fangirl about but all I can't think is I can't believe Book and Wash are dead! I can't believe Joss broke my heart and I need more answers to questions left unanswered. So onto my rambling thoughts...
.... starting with the Wash and Book being dead! Joss is a cruel, cruel man and he can never leave a excellent, pretty relationship alone – I loved Zoe and Wash’s interaction, their dialogue, especially in Firefly, was a big favourite – especially in War Stories, but now it’s all gone and all we have left is Zoe without Wash. I was talking to xanya about it after, about what Zoe will do now -we were both on the wavelengh that she will go on, if only to keep the slowly crumbling Mel together - You could tell he was falling part, xanya, the enternal 'shipper, suggested that it was because Inara was gone and the man was suffering from a broken heart but I think it was something bigger then that - Inara leaving just put a bigger crack in it, like he is rotting from the inside. Let's not even mention my heartbreak over Book - I'm still all teary eyed.
I loved River in this movie, I'm all excited about the questions answered in regard to her and what she can do - the glimpses of the style of her dreams – because really who doesn’t want to know what a semi-insane, more-than-genius psychic dreams like? Her fighting style was the prettiest to watch, all bendy and graceful - especially when she was slicing and dicing Reevers.
That was another thing I loved - the history of the Reevers, where they came from and why they're all yay! with the rapeing and the eating of living, human flesh - the scene in the abandoned city with all dead bodies and the gases that are all of the aim to control how we think and act creeped me majorily out – the bruises on xanya's arm can testify to that - plus the effect of the Pax (the only latin word I understand!) is very cool is a very, very distrubing way. But anyway the city itself with its very shiny, clean and whiteness - being all with the happy on a summers day feeling, well except for the decaying bodies obviously, was more nightmare worthy in my mind then the traditional dark cellar or whatever – plus Simon was great in the scene – in fact I liked him a lot more in Serenity then I did in Firefly, I think it was because he was more grown up then he was, more in control and becoming not so much of just a reactor.
The dialogue is to die for - more Joss. I most enjoyed Jayne's lines – he is so ‘gun-ho I’m muscularly insane’ kind of guy and he tickles my fancy, but the snark between Inara and Mel brought the most giggles especially Mel’s line in relation to poetry – which if I had a less dodgy mind I might be able to remember in full.
I can't wait for screencaps to come out - I need icons as of the right now.
