How about Fade from black: Strange Shadows close up and slowly pulling back to Wash and Zoe in bed.

Or pull back to Wash in his Chair. (And then the big red button)

Crazy Ivan wasn't coined by Firefly. It is the term used to describe in general, Soviet submariners and in specific, the turning a ship 180 degrees and has been around since the early days of the cold war.

One example of it being used in modern cinema is in "The Hunt for Red October" when Jack Ryan is trying to convince the American sub captain that he understands the Russian Captain. He tells him that 'at the top of the hour, he'll do a Crazy Ivan'.



"Just keep walkin, preacher man."



Uhhh I was referring to the Mission of the Sturgeon class attack submarine USS Lapon SSN 661 when it trailed the newest Russian submarine the Yankee I class SSBN thou out its entire patrol (about 40 Days!). A newspaper leaked out that the Russian sub was not a quiet as believed (which was untrue) and the Russians learned of it and informed all its SSBNs that they maybe being trailed. The Yankee Lapon was trailing reversed course at high speed (due to its high speed it failed to detect Lapon) which spawned the term "Crazy Ivan" along with some songs written by Tommy Cox a sailor on the Lapon.

BTW it was the bottom of the hour that Ramus turned to Starboard.

Oh did I mention that I’m a bit of a submarine nut.

You know in Heart of Gold when Nandi says a true companion never stops practicing?

Shot of Inara playing some instrument (like the shamisen or harp or something incredibly femenine. But she's playing "The Hero of Canton". Although she had no way of hearing that song in Jaynestown, it would be a nice shout out to fans.

But one thing that worries me is my memories of the '96 tv movie of Doctor Who, where they played to the core fans SO much that they lost everyone else. From that point, I'd settle for no inside jokes to have more good Firefly.


Oh don't worry. Joss is an expert when it comes to subtle jokes directed only at several people. Any die-hard Angel fans seen this season of Angel? It's full of references and jokes that only the people who have seen earlier episodes would get. I have faith in Joss to do this.

Also rolling around in my brain is if someone calls Wash on the fact that he always hits the same 3 switches for everything.


Dude! You totally stole mine! hehe

I would die for the chicken. And the fox. Maybe a cow. Bring a whole darn barnyard on Serenity. ^_^

I particularly like Inara playing Hero of Canton, the big red button, and there MUST be something about dinosaurs, maybe a This Land or an inevitable betrayal. I like the idea of River acting out a conversation with dinosaurs and muttering to herself.

Hmm, can't think of any myself. Hmm...I shall ponder!

Even better- Joss pushes it. Then Mal comes up onto the bridge and starts talking to him, so Joss has a cameo as a potential passenger on Serenity or something.


I like ice cream 'cause it doesn't have any bones in it.



YES! That would be GREAT! Or, if Joss started talking to the audience, Mal comes in "What in the..." (I'll leave that up to your minds...), and a conversation about "No touching buttons" ensues.

I think someone brought up this idea before, maybe on another thread... but how about Mal and Zoe happen to stop by on a planet where they just happen to be walking by a certain spot. It's snowing. Some others are gathering too, look like browncoats for a little reunion. There's a flag pole or something else that symbolizes the struggle of the independents in the war. And they all recite the independents motto.

I think seeing that same scene that Static depicted for us so well in his thread:

up on the big screen would be very shiny!

I'm sure there will be subtle things; and that's good enough for me. Things in the backround: Wash's dinosaurs; Jayne's old shirts, or old guns; Kaylee's dress; Inara's sand-thing. Things that someone unfamiliar with the show wouldn't even notice.

I'm convinced there will be a lot in the movie for us fans; Joss always rewards frequent viewers with little inside jokes. I'm reminded of Spike, and those onion-blossom things, or that one soap-opera he liked.

That was funny stuff.

I think the best insider thing Joss could do would be to tell us some of the backstory of Inara and Book -- our 2 remaining mystery crew.

As for insider jokes, how can there not be so many that we won't be able to count them all? After all, the characters and the writers will be the same... The characters just have to be 'themselves' for us true fans to find ourselves ROTFLMAOs!

Soup in hair (from the tins with no label?!) It's always a hoot

The crew shooting foxes

and, of course, as many references to the hero of Canton as can be fitted in, and appearences from the true star- Vera!

As for the jokes only appealing to the core fans- well, I've only been into Firefly for about 2 weeks and I've already personally persuaded 4 other people to buy their own copies of the DVD(and, hopefully, the pizza guy I kidnapped last night!) add to that several others who've agreed to see the film, and spread the word- we have an ever increasing fan base here people!

Everyone has listed so many good ideas! I'd love to see any reference to the Hero of Canton, the geisha wobble-heads, the label-less cans, etc. These things would all be easy to work in because Joss is *so* good at layering details, as we saw in just about every episode. I think that he's going to be able to put plenty of inside jokes in without having any impact on the "newness" of the movie.

I am pretty sure we'll see Vera in the movie. You have to assume he'd still have his favorite gun, and after all, she's kind of the 11th crew member. (Serenity being the 10th of course )

My suggestion for the inside joke:

Some badly pronounced yet colorfully funny Chinese swearing involving a red-furred animal with a white-tipped tail.

Most of us don't speak Chinese so this inside joke would be lost when Serenity is seen for the first couple of times but soon the translations would start circling the net and by the time of BDM's DVD release this would be everyone's new favorite curse which you would have learned by heart and used often.

Although I would like to see the Red Button too.

Here's some more. Sorry if anyone's already said them, but I missed 'em:

-Wash takes off WITHOUT touching the three magic switches. Mal frowns, looks like he's going to say something, and then leaves looking disturbed.

-Kaylee catches Mal glaring at a large crate.
KAYLEE: What's the matter, Captain?
MAL: The last coupla time's we had a crate that size, they had people in 'em. (beat) Kaylee, get me a crowbar.

-Kaylee finds something saying 'Fox' on it. She shows it to Simon, and says teasingly, "They're asking money for this crap?"

-Wash sees a sign, and points it out to Zoe. She looks at it and laughs. The sign? "Black Market Beagles For Sale."

-Jayne walks past the Tam siblings in a red T-shirt. River turns to Simon: " I told you he looks better in red." Simon raises his eyebrows and nods.

-Simon shows up with a black moustache.
Book: "It suits you."

Ok a bit of a cross between a few here how about:

Introduce Book (or cut to him from different scene) mid sentence looking at the camera "you know there's a special place in hell for people like you" pull/cut back and hes talking to Jayne or someone else (or a gaisha doll with a wobbly head)

I'd like just a wuick glimpse of Safron in the background walking towards the crew (doesn't matter who how many as long as mals there) sees them and turns and runs the other way without them noticing.
