Looks like it's two hours long

So, do people approve of that choice, if it's true? Should it be more?

Point of interest--I'm pretty sure it isn't true about that other thing.

Ha bless, after somebody went to all the trouble of disguising the whole 2 hour thing!

Given the delay in the release, I think what I'll do for now is just watch the leaked Serenity Comic Con trailer again and again and again...maybe I can string it together into two hours of looping :)

So what if it's only 1/3d the length it should be? Remember, it's also true of movies: It ain't the size of the boat, it's the motion in the ocean...

At least that's what I always tell the girlies.

Thanks for quoting me and (dubiously) Dr. Westheimer in the same post. Although, if you'll look at my quote, it was playfully making the statement that the BDM -- regardless that it was only 2 hours long ("1/3d the length it should be") -- should not be judged strictly by its length, but by the magic contained within those 2 hours. Since I used a veiled sexual reference (I doubt anyone below the age of 17 would have readily sussed it, as originally stated), I poked fun at myself -- rather than, say, you -- in an attempt to defuse any unpleasant feelings it might engender in those readers able to discern it.

Apparently, some saw only the sexual reference, instead of a (I thought, very apt) metaphor for the movie. Ah, well. Rule 1A: Never over-estimate your audience. While you state you "always imagined (me) as a girlie", I always imagined you as a thoughtful, intelligent fan of Firefly. Looks like we were both wrong.

If you want to know the truth of my particulars, just go to my profile page. Between those exterior details and my hundreds of long-winded, heart-felt, and/or irreverently flippant posts on this board, you can get an idea of who I truly am: The good, the bad, and the ugly. You -- and many others -- don't list whether you are a boy or a girl, or your age, et cetera on your profile pages. What are you hiding for? I can't even tell if I'm taking this sniper fire from a male or a female. If you're a guy, I have one response; if you're a gal, I have another.

I have many weaknesses and faults for you to poke fun at, you just haven't found one yet. Keep at it 'til you get it right, if you wish; this isn't fun, yet, mostly just disappointing.

I'd prefer to be friends -- or at least cordial -- with everyone I meet; but, I'm really good at "the other thing", as InevitableBetrayal put it, and at all the 'other things', too. So if you're itching for a fight(?), regrettably, you've come to the right place to get as bloody as you'd like... But I'd sooner skip the exercise, as it will undoubtedly prove futile and destructive to all concerned.


Sadly,

zoid
