Reaver Lawn Dart

That's what I saw.

I came away thinking that the impalement wasn't necessarily targeted. Like that big honkin' log just happened to come through the windscreen...making the death all the more ignoble. Unhappy accident in a sea of violence.

me too. It felt like Joss was saying, "no one is safe here. They all might die."

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

It felt like Joss was saying, "no one is safe here. They all might die."

I think that was the point. I know I spent the rest of the movie thinking "Joss is a fucker. They're going to lose! THEY'RE ALL GONNA DIE!"

'cause, you know...Joss is a fucker sometimes.

Amen.

A wise, brilliant, self-actualized fucker...but fucker none the less.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

Oh, absolutely. I know *I* spent the rest of the movie after Wash *whimper* in complete and utter terror for My Crew.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

funny. I often think/say/IM away message "I am a leaf on the wind, watch how I soar"... sometimes I hope for an errant tree log. Alas, Joss isn't my creator. I should be so lucky ;)

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I remember during the CSTS preview screening things in 2005 loads of people were claiming Wash got killed by a boulder.

Did anyone start the hype for the "Objects in Space" WnP tomorrow? I just brought home a 14 week old Newfoundland puppy tonight; at the moment he's laying quietly at my feet but I can't promise he'll be conveniently quiet during showtime tomorrow night. But I'll try to be here.

I just informed my gaming buddies that I will be taking a break from hacking up skeletons between 7 and 7:40 tomorrow. There was grumbling but I'll be here!
