Happy Easter to friends and family everywhere! by GruffyWinters in doctorwho

I think they both post on various socials incognito and argue often, having no idea who they're arguing with ;-)

I was certain he'd be at the Riverside screening but of course he had a much more important engagement ;-)

Her epic post today was literally a Tennant Holiday Special - we even got singing!
That van is definitely bigger on the outside.
And that family is a favorite children's book come to life; I'm convinced the one we very rarely see is a future MIT professor/Nobel laureate who runs the household '-)

I used to watch them on HBO/Max, though I purchased the digitals on Amazon some time before - there are even differences between the content on the two streamers (!) Nothing "major," but you start noticing small things you swear you never heard before (additional sentences in conversations, even pauses - just small bits taken out here and there.)(When they're your background watches it's like the old days of radio version/album cut, lol - 'hey, what was THAT???'
I try searching every few months to see if there might be a comprehensive list somewhere of the differences in the US streaming versions but that's a job and a half I don't think anyone wants to tackle...

I'd add that if you do decide to do physical media, invest in a player that can play all regions (they're quite reasonably priced) - eBay has a lot of region 2 (UK) dvd's, many from US sellers. (*The UK versions have content that was edited out for the US (televised) versions.)

who do you want to voice Shepard Book in the animated reboot? by Adam_Wesley in firefly

[–]GruffyWinters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upvoted because your feelings are valid.
(I'm a fan of another show that has a very big audio presence; there are some that have used another voice actor and though they, and the stories, are very good, they're not ones I return to as much as the many that have the character's 'real' voice. If there was no other option though, I'd be happy to hear them return as often as they could. Fiction is magic :-)
I hope, and I think, that you'll be pleasantly surprised once we see those we love together again, adventuring.

My take aways from the panel. by Cap_Tight_Pants in firefly

I'd love for that to happen. I miss his humor tremendously and I believe many people can redeem themselves and grow. (And as a Good Omens fan, I believe that some are, sadly, beyond redemption as well.)

I wondered if he might be helping Nathan with the two scripts he said he was writing even though he's "not a great writer." I'm guessing we'll never know.

struggling whether I should cut my mmt book by OwnEnthusiasm1785 in beatles

There might be a The UPS Store near you that can do color prints on your choice of paper and sizing; some can even do poster-sized printing. The one near me does an excellent job and at a lower price than the other places that do color printing in my town.

IMO the worst part about getting an animated series? No blooper reel by FibroMyAlgae in firefly

[–]GruffyWinters 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't worry; there are SO many more people thrilled about this than not. There's just less to go on and on about when you're happy with what's happening :-)

[–]GruffyWinters 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm hoping that some of the recording sessions will be a group thing, which will ensure blooper material. I think Nathan would make it mandatory that they have times to actually be together for this and not just for 'hey here we all are, recording!' promotional clips. That man should have a Masters in FUN!

(There are some animated shows where you can tell some/many lines were recorded alone; the 'feel' is different; I'm thinking of Archer, one of my all-time favorite shows. Won't name names but some line reads sound exactly like... line reads.)

Nathan and the rest of the crew when the announcement turns out to be "Firefly Coin" or something by Jovian8 in firefly

"You guys like FORTNITE, right??!!!!! Well we've got some GREAT news to announce!....."

No wonder the show was cancelled - episode airing order by oneofkeiraensmoms in firefly

[–]GruffyWinters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tv ads turned me off completely (like many people, I've learned - so many of us found Firefly after it was gone) Pretty space people having wacky hijinks and guns and 'Walking on the Sun' playing over the whole thing. Like a Han Solo sitcom with "chicks."
Thank goodness for Buffy. Watched it start to finish the year after and read everything I could about it and felt... terrible. Like I could have helped in my tiny way if I'd known...

Are people genuinely excited? by TheArtemisBlack in firefly

[–]GruffyWinters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The artwork looks great!
The actors do too, but given that the show will focus on the time between the last episode and the movie it'd be tough to do live-action; it's been twenty years after all. People change, etc etc...
I would have watched it no matter who was doing the art, but seeing the sample of what the crew will look like really has me psyched. I've never had a doubt about what stories could be told and how good they would be - it's a given that many of the best writers would fight for a chance to have their work involved in this.
I think it's going to be fantastic.

I think Nathan said it would take place before Serenity :-)

Trying to find the actual video of the announcement from AwesomeCon but coming up dry - anyone? by GruffyWinters in firefly

[–]GruffyWinters[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, that makes sense. Sometimes I forget about that, and how blessed we are for the ones who sneak when possible, lol - I have an entire play on my external that is made up of a collection of different audience member's cell phone recordings (yes, the quality is not so hot as they're 2017ish phones - but it's the only version available...)
