Well, all right "Joss Whedon is a complete bastard and emotional stunted my daughter" would be worse but still, it was a personalised attack and more than that, it was just another negative thread started purely for the reason of knocking the movie again.

This site is supposedly devoted to Firefly and Serenity fandom. We do not need fifteen new threads a day about how disappointed someone was in the movie. Or would you prefer it if everyone just poured out their bile on a daily basis?

If you want to piss and moan and grieve and rip your clothes over Wash etc., do it in one of the many, many other threads where you'll have the company of other teeth-gnashers. This proliferation of whiner threads? Annoying, very annoying.

At the risk of offending everybody whose posts I skip, I've decided that Susie is absolutely right on this score. I'm already in enough turmoil over box office results. I don't need a lot of whinging over the way the plot went. Yeesh!

No, I didn't really watch Buffy or Angel, so I'm not all up on "what Josh does".

Not my usual way -- there are no amulets to be had for love or money. But there's every chance you could see these characters again."

I know this is a long post, but there is such a rich tapestry that was woven by Joss for the Buffy and Angel fans. We were given the time to learn something that the fans of only Firefly were denied (stupid Fox *spit*): Your travels with Joss will almost never go in the direction you expect. But ultimately, it will be a better journey than you could ever have planned.

YOU made your daughter cry by:
1. Taking her to a movie that's rated PG 13, you heel.
2. Not exposing your daughter to books and stories where things don't always turn out the way you think they "should". In other words, Life Isn't Always Fair.
You thought the movie sucked because something unpleasant happens?
I guess I feel sorry for you AND your daughter.
Sheesh.
So, you must be new to the Whedonverse.
Or maybe you don't read a whole lot.
Maybe you never read any Shakespere (sp?), eh?
Or saw any movies like...
Oh never mind.

Me myself...thought the "you know whats" were cheap ploys at illiciting emotions. A better writer can evoke emotion in his audience in a slightly less "in your face" manner. All in all though...I ain't loosin' any sleep over it. My point was that there is no need to impugn someone's parenting skills and start calling them names (heel) for no other reason than they disliked something that you...cherish? And let me see if I've got this straight...because I didn't like something that you adore (didn't hate it either, BTW) you are able to discern that am illiterate and otherwise relatively uneducated? Wow! Can't argue with that logic! Finally...Joss as great literary luminary? Buffy, Angel, Slither...I'm guessing Firefly was a fluke. There! I said it! I feel liberated! And Tallgrrl...relaaaaax.

Much love...
