Joss Whedon is going to the special hell.



You don't even want to know what kinds of swear words were being said here. And at one point both Chris and I were flipping off the T.V. I didn't cry; I was too pissed.

Shepherd was bad enough. But Wash??? Oh hell no.

I love the movie Alien, and the first sequel was good. But then we got to Alien 3, which began with Newt and the Captain being killed off. I have never watched Alien 3 again.

My point being, I have a good feeling that Serenity will be a new Alien 3. Which is too bad, because River was freakin' awesome. And I loved Simon and Kaylee, and Mal, and generally everybody (except Jayne, who is at 'like up to a point'). But some things are just not done, and that was one of them. I don't care about 'realism', or any other excuses.

Goodbye, Serenity. I'll stick with Firefly.

Your reaction is pretty common in the fandom.

Aw, I never saw the show, but I loved Serenity.

I took me five times to watch the movie before I stopped crying.

Actually, the first time? I just cried when he died.

The second time? I started crying every time he came on fucking screen.

I even rented "A Knight's Tale," forgetting Alan Tudyk is in, wanting a fluffy comedy thing where nobody dies. And I cried.

I'm kind of a crier, though.

Anyway. It's a very quality film, and Wash's death was incredibly effective on a number of different levels. I still <3 it. Even though it made me cry.
