GENERAL DISCUSSIONS

Noticed something new in the Serenity Trailer ***SPOILER for those who haven't watched the trailer or seen the movie. Safe for those who have watched the trailer but not the movie.***

So Apple just released the new quicktime codec for Windows and I was able to watch the High Def versions of the trailer. For the first time I noticed:

The Reaver ship from the Pilot Episode Serenity!! In the shot where one small ship flies out of a big nebula and is followed by a zillion huge ships, if you look in the lower left side of the frame you'll see the reaver ship with the magnetic grappler that chased the crew in the pilot.

Sorry if this is a repost of old news. I did some looking around and couldn't find it, so thought it might be worth posting. Got me pretty geeked to find it!! I love little self-references like that.

(For those that have seen the movie, please don't add any details about the shot in question to this post. Want to keep it as fresh as possible. Thanks guys!)

Oh, yeah! There's that old Trans-U.

They're flying without core containment. That's... That's suicide.

America loves a winner!


Yep, cool. And this might have the longest title I've yet seen for any thread. Congrats!

Oooops. I suppose SPOILER would have done the job. Sometimes I'm a little too thorough.

If you don't mind spoiling yourself by inspecting the hi-def trailer, look carefully at Serenity as she emerges from the nebula/cloud...

Jayne, your mouth is talkin. Might want to look into that.

I didn't need to download the Hi-Def version to notice the Reaver ship: I just hit Command+3 on the large version to go "Fill Screen"!
Kinda grainy, but...



I was wonderin' about all them spiny-lookin' things on Serenity, but I suspect it's camouflage of a sort.



Apparently, Serenity also gets some mesh guards for her intakes.

One can speculate that perhaps our Big Damn Heroes found some common ground with the Reavers, and struck up an alliance against the Alliance!

I'd go for the theory that they messed it up with both the reavers and the alliance. Fleeing from the reaver fleet, they see their only way in engaging directly on the alliance fleet. And swoosh: They find themself in the middle of a huge battle, totaly forgotten by both alliance and reavers :)

Yes there are Fireflyfans all over the world. Even in little switzerland.

Right you are! That's a bit more plausible.

I don't know. They said during the series that there were still some 40,000 of those old Firefly class ships flying around. My guess would be that the one with the Reavers is just a different Firefly - not Serenity.

Just a guess.

*SPOILERS below*







Well if you want to find spoilers in the trailer... So, I watched the thing frame by frame. It actually does have the very last scene in the movie in the trailer. I doubt you'd be able to guess which one it is though.

Another thing I noticed was that the roll punch thing River does is an obvious stand in double during the roll and then her for the punch. It's at a totally different angle once she's standing up but somehow it moves so fast you don't notice in full speed.
