YUP, I'M A LATE COMING NEWBI

Always heard about Firefly in the past, but never really looked into it. Finally took the time to watch Serenity this past weekend on SciFi, and was really captivated. There hasn't been a lot of good SciFi out there for a while - I did love Farscape and the original Stargate SG1, but I can't bring myself to be a devout fan of BSG - Perhaps if they would have stuck just a little closer to cannon.... I digress.

I have been watching the latest Terminator series with much interest – mostly for the Cameron character (they too are really screwing with cannon). I’m really into martial arts, and she kicks some serious arse. To my delight the actress was River before being Cameron. My gawd – the final battle between River and the hoard of Reavers was just plain awesome. Don’t get me wrong, the battle of Mal and The Operative was equally cool too – especially when The Operative’s paralysis of Mal failed.

So, I’m hooked – sadly it looks like a little too late though. I defiantly be getting the Firefly boxed set though..
