For Serenity fans

belak_krin just found a cool webcomic strip advertising it. :o)
(and I really need a Serenity/Firefly icon, have to have a look through the DVDs and grab something)

(no subject)

Amazon's marketing targeting is getting better. I just got an email about Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman but it's already in my current order. ;o)

You can't stop the signal

Got out of work in time and to the cinema where after a quick exchange of text messages met up with cryx and emilydongray.

Erm, yeah, Serenity. I won't say much until the general release, just two non-spoilers.
I liked the new-look, more intricate Serenity but I really missed the organic, acoustic music of the TV series.
Something else: I don't think it'll do well at the box office, sadly. They set the scene enough to get the plot (i.e. why the Alliance are after River) but there are quite a few things that don't quite make sense if you don't know the characters and their backgrounds well. Two people actually left the cinema about half-way through muttering darkly. Oh, and it was at a small screen which was only about a quarter full...

On our way out, I lost sight of the girls but met up again and then I gave them lifts to home and the station.

[Cambridge] Anime at the Arts Picturehouse

Howl's Moving Castle is at the Arts Picturehouse from this Friday. It's by the same team as Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away (among others).
Anyone want to join me? Monday or Thursday would be good for me. I probably won't be back in time on Sunday to make it a camgothfilmclub outing.
