Mals braces are different in Serenity. They look all blocky and plastic. Maybe i'm just nuts.. but that just bothered me straight up.

There was no two by two, hands of blue.

I didnt see any blue sun logos(may just have missed them).

I didn't even notice, but as for the rest:

Did you read the comic books? Because...

Select to view spoiler:


In the comic books, the hands of blue men try to board Serenity and, long story short, get scraped off of her belly and, apparently, burned up in her engine trail. That's when the Operative gets called in.

In the dining room, when Mal tells the crew about getting the Pax info to Mr. Universe, Jayne is drinking out of a Blue Sun bottle, which he then passes to Simon.

Cool. I'll have to try and get those comics. I wonder if you can buy them in Australia? If you dont mind how many are there and what are they called specifically?

Ahh, ok. I thought it might be possible I missed any blue sun references or logo sightings.

Eek! Fix the spoiler! As someone who frantically avoided them until I finally got to see the movie, I'd hate to spoil anything for anybody!

And there are three comics, entitled "Serenity" and printed by Dark Horse Comics. I bought mine from Things From Another World, www.tfaw.com , who say that they do ship internationally. Alternatively, the compilation seems to be coming out on Amazon in February. There is also a review of them on "The Signal" podcast, http://signal.serenityfirefly.com/signal.php , episode #11. Enjoy.

Heh, I fixed that spoiler though I really dont think it necessary, anyone viewing a thread titled "some Serenity observations" after the movie has been released should be fully aware of the possiblity for spoilers.

Thanks for the comic info.

Yeah, but there are movie spoilers and comic book spoilers, and like I said, after months of avoiding spoilers of all kind like they were plague-ridden reavers, I'm still all hyper-sensitive about them.

So thank for makin' me feel better.

Just saw Serenity again. I couldnt get a clean look at the blue sun logo on Jaynes cup though. I could see what I think is the logo but only really half a logo.. anyways.

Serenity was even better for me the second time around!

Nope there weren't. Fabby, I reckon this is a different plot point entirely and Joss is playing us all for fools thinking that River is safe now. The Operative said that the Alliance might not take his advice and stop looking for her - well I am pretty sure the Blue hands will be coming for her and not because of anything we know so far.

extremely dimensionally transcendental
