I was wondering how you felt about the movie, did you like it?

George Lucas: The best way to judge how could science fiction films are is to examine their box-office earnings. Serenity took in a weak $ 25 million dollars in North America. Revenge of the Sith crushed this figure with earnings toppling over $ 380 million dollars. Hence, Star Wars is fifteen times more popular that the hack work produced by Whedon.

All of Whedon’s TV shows can be found in the bargain basement bin for DVD’s. Buffy - The Vampire Slayer, Firefly and Angel can be bought for $ 10 bucks for the entire season run. Anti-popular is the way I describe it. All and all, Serenity is just another piece of crap in the wall. That will surely drive you insane.



umm... asshole.

If I offended anyone, let me know and I will send you an electronic hug, or something else lame like that.

Okay, I can't stand it any longer. Anyone who is still not sure if the interview is for real or not, read it, all of it. It's very obviously satire. I think the guy who wrote it is feeling very jaded toward GL, like so many here, and is making fun of his self-important attitude. GL is gracious, but at the same time, he has bought into his own legend just a little too much. The "interview" is a satire about just that. I think it is supposed to represent what GL would like to be able to say. It's actually pretty funny if you read in that light. It's kind of like "A Modest Proposal", which suggested that the way to get rid of the poverty stricken is to...eat them. Some people even took that little bit of satire seriously. It's almost like Orson Welles broadcast of "War of the Worlds". When you write satire, you almost have to include a little disclaimer - This is only a satire. Any similiarities to real events is...meant as a joke.

That's a great take on a fake article. Bravo to you!!

There's way to many people here trying to denegrate Star Wars because of their love for Firefly. Why can't you like both? Well Thought out comparison of the two universe is healthy, while name calling and profanity is just downright wrong.

From Joss' mouth, I've only heard him speak great things of Lucas and the Star Wars Universe. Why, he even tends to pepper some of his dialoque with Star Wars references (i.e. like the Episode I line Xander butchers in 4X01 of Buffy.)

To me, Joss has always tried to compare this little show to the Star Trek universe, only I never really see that debate on the boards alot.
