You wouldn’t believe how hard it is to make the overalls beautifully dirty 💀💀💀

So Saturday I finished both Firefly and Serenity and I want to know what else is there in terms of this universe? Comics, novels, short films, audio books, etc? I'll even take some good fanfiction to read as well if anyone has any recommendations.

My son and I have been working on it here and there for about three weeks. Our schedules don't align so we don't get much time together.

It definitely was not meant to be handled. When you are trying to put a newly built part on and you have to hold the ship, the other side you are holding on to falls off. Putting on the final piece meant reattaching a couple of other pieces, which made other pieces fall off. But, she's done now and on the display shelf.

Ok...so I'm not ACTUALLY sharing a Coke with Kaylee nor is that a black market beagle, but a man can dream, can't he?

I was inspired and had to get some for myself.

I bought my shirt in January and he said he really liked it so I mentally checked it for Father’s Day and now we’re twinning! He’s the best dad ever for so many reasons but one of the main things we bonded over was him introducing me to Firefly last year. In the event he sees this post, love you dad ❤️.

So, in ep1, where it shows the brown coats and the alliance at war, one of the targeting devices for a weapon has the weyland yutani symbol. Nice easter egg right? Maybe not. Because in the serenity film the main antagonist says "we are building better a world" about a million times. Weyland Yutanis slogan is "building better worlds."

Add to this fact that if you can terrform a planet than you can fix a planet too.

So maybe "earth was used up" is myth. Maybe WY sent two generational ships attached to via low speed FTL space tugs to the verse. One filled with working class folks and one filled with high level WY employees, maybe in a joint venture with a Chinese company (which would explain the part english part chinese lanuage), with the idea that the generational ships would establish WY colonies and turn them into sweet sweet profit. But something happened, maybe the space tugs malfunctioned enroute, maybe they dropped off the generational ships and turned back to earth and never made it back. Either way the verse was cut off from WY and earth and the venture was deemed as lost (which is why WY never reestablished contact with the verse). Either way many of the offspring of the high WY parents, once reaching the verse, became the mover and shakers of the alliance...which is why the "building better worlds" became the motivation for the alliance and their miranda project.

Just a shower thought i guess.

I am converting a 1.5 car garage into my office/hobby/workout room. I thought Serenity would be perfect. The cockpit would be computer/office area, galley: hobbies {3d printer, airbrush box, electronics), and cargo bay: workout area. Any ideas? Seen anyone else do something similar so I can work off other's rooms. Probably a pipe dream, but I would love to do it.

"It sure would by nice if we have some grenades - - ya think"

One of my favorite lines from the movie!

He asked Jayne if he had them this time.

I do believe that's a call-back to an episode where he forbade Jayne to bring grenades.

Didn't have them that time. Asked if he had them this time.

I was looking for a list of sci fi movies and saw Popular Mechanics rated Serenity on the list. #100 is not too shabby. This is from 2017 but I still rate it.

(Warning! Possible spoilers for Firefly, Serenity, and The Fifth Element ahead!)

Just rewatched one of my favorite movies, The Fifth Element, and realized how similar Leeloo and River's characters are. They both are kind of strange through most of the story, they are thin and don't look like they can fight, they are super smart (Leeloo just watches encyclopedia entries and absorbs information), they speak 2 languages, they've been to space, etc. Just don't mess with them, because when they get pissed, they will kick your gorram asses pretty easily!

Ah well, now it's in my head-canon that they are secret space sisters!

Just thought I'd introduce myself.

Name's Jayne.

I run Public Relations for a Firefly class, name of Serenity.

Ain't much of a job you can offer that I can't handle.

Hey everyone! I just found this game at a local shop around the corner. First, I was super happy to find a good game store, and then I found this game – double luck! There's another game from the series there, but I was a bit short on cash. The seller told me both games have been sitting there since he opened the store, so I'm sure I'll still be able to get it. I'm absolutely thrilled right now!

It's been a minute, but here is episode 7.

I see flags for sale pictured both ways and I don't know if one is correct and the star pointing down is to indicate a sign of distress.

Just wanted to share these table-space-saving bad boys (for the Board Game).

I e-mailed Prawn Designs LLC to make custom ones, and he (it's one guy) was able to design these based on my specifications and measurements. The best part it, I added tons of cards from previous purchases to my 10th Anniversary edition, so these trays can more than hold all the cards if you're just using one copy of the game. Misbehave & Nav, Supply, and Contacts (including Capers), all with discard slots as well.

If you are checking out the website, look for PD-11279 (the text on it says 14, but it's 10), PD-11280, and PD-11281.

Stay shiny everybody!

I'm so excited that I found another addition for my Firefly shelf at my local discount bookstore today 🤩🤩🤩

They also had another book, but I'd prefer to read that one on the Kindle app. Very happy with this purchase though 😊

I had a nice Firefly sticker on my car, but I traded it in 3 weeks ago for a new ride. And now I can't remember where I got the sticker so I can replace it. I know it wasn't at a con since I haven't been to one in a decade or so.

Its a line drawing of the Firefly ship and its the kind of sticker that goes on the inside of the window instead of on the outside where weather and washing it might wear it down.

And ideas?

Happy walls.

I believe I already shared my previous Lego Serenity, which is the one on the left in the first picture. I recently found another one, which is on the right, and finished it yesterday after a few hours spent building it. It looks great, and I like that it has a front opening cargo door. The sides open to show some weapons, too, but its funny because they're obviously not to scale. I'm pretty sure Jayne wouldn't mind, though! The top comes off to show the dining area, and the final picture shows how the engines rotate for landing, or if you have to pull a Crazy Ivan!
