Simon had a completely different haircut. So did Mal, actually. Both have longer hair than they did in the series, and both have more modern cuts instead of the distinctly Old West styled cuts they used to have. It looks better and it's honestly more believable. And I want Simon's haircut.

Book had cornrows and a fairly bushy beard, where in the series his hair was pulled back into a bun (the movie is an enourmous improvement here).



Oddly enough, the women looked pretty good in the series, and the movie improvements weren't really as dramatic.

Everybody was sporting a lot more hair product than they did on Firefly as well.

Some of you seem to know more about guns than the average human. It was an interesting tidbit that Hollywood uses real guns with bits from the hardware store and old cat turds hot melt glued onto them. I will get a bigger kick out of movie guns after reading your post.

The one from the episode was easily twice the size of Serenity herself. The one in the movie is barely bigger than the suped up mule.

Mal's Rifle is a heavily sci-fi modified M-16A2...I deal with that gun on a daily basis...I know the build of that gun.

Vera was a Saiga 12 shotgun (based on the Kalashnikov) that was first modified and used in the movie "Showtime" with Eddie Murphy. http://securityarms.com/20010315/galleryfiles/2100/2173.htm

The large rifle Jayne has in the Reaver fight scene is a AK-47 with a K-var AKU-94 Bullpup conversion kit ( http://www.k-var.com/product.asp?0=211&1=213&3=137 )and a huge water-jacket looking thing attached to the front.

OK, what else?

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

you're right! i guess that's another goof to add to the list. he was a sergeant in the war, not a captain.

the profile the operative was looking at definitely said he was a captain in the independent army. tsk tsk!

At the end, I was uncomfortable with the exchange between Mal & Inara the first couple of times I saw it. I liked that she'd taken her makeup mask off, and was wearing something different from usual (hadn't thought of it being Kaylee's or River's) but I didn't understand why she was grinning and acting like a schoolgirl with a crush. An un"skilled" schoolgirl, even. Inara doesn't act like that, right?

But maybe Inara does. Maybe Inara took her whole mask of companion training off, and we got to see a glimpse of the real deep down sweet vulnerable Inara, before whatever horrible thing happened that made her have to protect herself from any real kind of love.

When I thought that, I just wanted to hug her. Wish these people existed. Guess most of us do, eh?

YAY Joss!
