No one talks about Serenity. It's the first rule being a Browncoat.

The show rocked, but I cannot forgive him for killing off Wash. It was totally unnecessary, and added little to the film.

The same reason everyone thinks Napoleon Dynamite, anything with Will Ferrel, and Scary/Date/Epic Movie are actually good movies or worth seeing:

Popularity =\= Great

Firefly was a great show and Serenity was a good movie.

Serenity and Firely was pure lighthearted fun.

But seriously, if Firely is so shitty, mind mentioning a couple of "good" TV shows then? Or is that impossible for you?

The movie was very good too, kind of like Pirates of the Caribbean in "style" and feel.

surprised the crap out of me when it happened! and the movie gives you no time to dwell on it. normally you have a few seconds of like a slow motion "DO NOT WAAAANNNT!" or some momentary crying before you rush on with the action and the movie, but here:

1. A main character gets brutally harpooned.
2. More harpoons/sharp stuff comes flying at the cast.
3. Mal shouts, "Get the crap out!"
4. ...
5. What happened? Did...did they just kill Wash?

I agree. It was a genuine WTF moment that had little to no time spent on reflecting that moment afterward. I had to go back to it to double check if they actually really did kill him off. It was totally unnecessary to the plot/moment at all too.

If it was so popular, why was it cancelled?

Good=/=Popular.

Firefly > Serenity

Better character development, better script.
Though I get that Serenity was a way to wrap up the whole River storyline.

Anyway, Firefly didn't do well enough in TV ratings, partly because Fox didn't like the show and did everything to sabotage it - no advertising, reordering episodes, changing scripts. So it was cancelled.

It's done better on DVD sales as it's fanbase has grown.

Because no-matter how popular it was across the world generally... It wasnt popular enough with the American audiance, thus got axed.

Well done Yanks... well done...

thats what made it such an impressive moment in the film. As Joss said himself, by killing Wash, the audiance was able to fully experiance the suspense in the final scenes, and really realise that any or all the main characters could die at any moment.

I think the real problem is that it was shown on Fox.
Any Sci-Fi fan knows that Fox and Sci-Fi does not go hand in hand. They don't know how to do it right and kill series off before they have chances to grow.

you don't know shit

if they screened the sopranos in random order it would get canceled too because it sucks. the only reason that it got cancelled was that fox guys are assholes.

i mean seriously: they managed to kill the simpsons!

If Babylon 5 would have originally aired on Fox it would have never made it to the second season. And Firefly's first and only season was SO MUCH BETTER as a whole..

I just wish Nathon Fillion would get a break. Hes such a great actor, and all of his shows keep getting cancelled. fwi drive sucked ass, so it needed to be cancelled, but firefly had so much damn potential. :(

Bullshit. I would have been quite able toe "experience" the end of the film. Whedon is better than most directors, but the "kill a character" thing is his fucking crutch. He did it in the Buffy finale, where it had no impact, and he did it in Firefly, where it had no impact.

No, that's wrong, it DID have an impact. The impact was that I fucking hated both finales. Thanks for shitting on two great conclusions, Joss.

Anyone got a hi-res screenshot of the Reaver armada appearing out of fuck nowhere?

That was the best OH SHIT moment in movie history.

I totally and completely agree. It really gets on my nerves when characters are killed off just to be killed off. Not every death has to have some huge and dramatic meaning behind it, but randomly killing off characters is retarded as well. Another crutch of his is how he crushes romantic relationships and usually kills off one or both characters.
