Last night's movie: Serenity. w00t!! At work today, it was suggested that Serenity was the best sci-fi movie since the Matrix. Which was funny cos driving back last night I was thinking pretty much the same thing, that Serenity was Matrix-good. Yes, I know it lacks the ground-breaking FX and somewhat towering ambition. With luck it will also lack the 2 crappy sequels. It also struck me that I was in just the right demographic for the movie. I'm familiar enough with Firefly to recognize all the characters and their basic relationships and know a bit of the backstory. But not so into the show that I spent the whole movie hyper-aware of changes from the TV series. Most blatant iteration I've seen of that was the reviewer on Salon who turned in 3 screens basically whining about how Serenity was not Firefly. Yeah, and your grandmother's not a schoolbus...
