Over at IGN they have an article on the greatest ships in Scifi. Serenity is listed at #5 but they also have a poll. Serenity is currently in the lead with over 33% of the total votes. With The Falcon in a close second.

Here's yer link...

Don't really think I need to tell you which I voted for but I will say Samus' Gunship and the Falcon would be in my top three.

It's nearly a tie between Serenity(with Serenity in the lead) and The Falcon. I know I was torn on which to choose, but, in the end Serenity won for me.

I know. The Falcon of course has weapons systems, and fairly formidable at that. Though Serenity is quite a bit larger with more cargo room and a more balanced layout. More like a house. Like a poster over at IGN said, in the end it came down to which one I could navigate with my eyes closed. I'd run into quite a few walls before I'd make it from the engine room to the cockpit on Han's old boat. On Serenity I could do it at a full run unless someone left their chair out or something. Yep I know... silly geekiness but still in my dreams I'd love my own Firefly... maybe even a series 4. I love the added cargo capacity. Nothin' wrong with a 2 or 3 though. I even got a name all picked out.

Serenity. It was between Slave I and Serenity for me. I'm a big Boba Fett fan... But a -much- bigger Browncoat.

Yep... Boba Fett is almost too cool for Star Wars.

Serenity starting to break away at 33% now.

I thought that the Enterprise-D and the Bebop deserved places in the top ten before say, an imperial Star Destroyer. Cool? Definitely. Fan favorite ship? Nah.

Both ships are about as aerodynamic as a wad of barbed wire. Takes a lot of energy to get through atmo. Some streamlining and maybe a little C-130 Hercules to polish up the appearance.

Kaylee's decorations tip the scale in favor of Serenity.

sorry guys, i have to agree with a couple of the posters at ign, and call shenanigans on the exclusion of the TARDIS. while it has no weapons, it can go ANYWHERE in time and space.
and Bigger on the inside. MUCH bigger on the inside. (could fit much much more cargo, etc. inside and still park it ANYWHERE. even the sub-compact spaces.)
also, it's alive.

Yes it's probably the only cool thing about the show... but is it a ship? Maybe... not convinced but whatever. Also Serenity has no weapons herself.

Dude... the Borg ship.












LOL! Okay... I couldn't keep a straight face when I typed that. Serenity has my vote! Not a prettier ship in the verse but that one.


For a distant runner up, I would have definelty picked Eagle-5.

Serenity is at 34.2%
The Falcon is at 30.2%


Once, just once, I want things to go according to

I thought of MF first but still voted Serenity, although I was almost tempted to vote for the Borg ship. It has to be the most unique out of them all.

Also, asking me to decide between the MF and Serenity is like asking me to pick either Han or Mal. That would be an interesting day.

I see they managed to break up the Star Wars fans' votes () by having three different SW ships.

(I voted for Serenity, BTW. )

Sometimes you just need to stop, breathe deep, and scream.


I love the Falcon. I was raised with it. I had to vote that way, but as for Serenity, I am glad she is winning. She deserves it after what Fox did to her. Long live the Browncoats!!!!!

If seriously given the choice of which ship I'd like... even if you filled the Falcon with millions of dollars... I'd still pick Serenity. It's not just fan loyalty I just really love that ship. For one thing in my over-imaginative illogical mind the government would shoot your arse down if you went flying around in a ship with as many weapons as the Falcon has. Also Serenity is much more practical, attractive, and livable. Also her tech is more believable and realistic... though she still as aerodynamic as a brick... of course Han's bucket of bolts isn't exactly made for flight either.

The TARDIS is more of a transport vessel that flies itself. All you have to do is tell it where you want to go.

I picked Serenity of course. I would buy my own Firefly if I could.
