eruthrosI was attempting to explain to someone why I was excited about Firefly on DVD, but basically I just bounced and went "oooh oooh" a lot.
So. Why I'm excited about Firefly on DVD:
Kaylee Kaylee Kaylee! Kaylee = adorable! She wears pink ruffles! She talks about ships at fancy parties! Well, party. She can't hold a grudge in the face of neat spare parts!
Mal = fabulous! Bitter! Yet fabulous!
Zoe = kickass! ass-kicking! She's the tough guy! A girl is the tough guy! And she says things like "big damn heroes, sir!" And she mocks Mal!
Wash = funny! he plays with dinosaurs! He loves Zoe! He says "a hoot!"
Inara = Space Whore! With silk and incense and sensual massage! And she kisses Kaylee! Eeeeee!
Simon = shiny-vest-wearing! Or at least that's what most people would say. Er, I mean, he's all soft-seeming and then he plans raids! And he gets all ironical at Mal! And he's all competent doctory!
River = crazy! she shoots people without looking! come on, you've got to admit that's cool!
Book = Mysterious past! He has a mysterious past and he kneecaps people because the Bible doesn't specifically prohibit kneecapping!
Jayne = ... ... ... ... Um. He's very... Jayne-like. Which means. Um. Damn. Well, I'm sure someone else can come up with something good to say.
And, and, and, there are lots of extras! There's commentary on basically every episode! And, and Joss Whedon singing the theme song! And, and, and a gag reel! And, and, and deleted scenes! And, and, and Kaylee and Inara and Mal and Zoe and Wash and Simon and River and Book and I guess Jayne too. The cast! The writing! The funny! The sad!
And right now the Firefly DVD set sales rank on amazon.com is 23. Take that, Fox!
