Finally we got the 2nd season of Firefly!!!


What I don't get is why they used the Star Wars logo in the trailer... and where's Nathan Fillion???

reply

WTF are you talking about ? It doesnt get more star wars than this

reply

The new trailer is pure Firefly, same feeling of 'western in space', not to say the spaceship is a clone from the Firefly one.

reply

No it was pure Star Wars. I didn't get a Firefly vibe at all.

Star wars has always been a space Western. Hang solo is dressed like a cowboy gunfighter, other than the hat.

reply

Star Wars was a space opera. Firefly was the space western one.

Yeah.....but no. Star wars plays out just like a ton of westerns. I'm certainly not the first person to acknowledge that.

reply

Space Opera?? I do not remember any singing. LOL

reply

Space Westerns fit fairly neatly into Space Opera.

If you're going to use Wikipedia, you can't be conveniently selective. There is a section that breaks down MULTIPLE parts of how Star wars is a western, which is a sub genre of the operatic style. FYI, Firefly is a space opera too, but it also is heavily influenced by the western style.

Instead of watching this, I'll be drinking to Unification Day.

The dialogue will be nowhere as good - that I can promise you.

Not seen this but saw the description and instantly thought Firefly. Be interesting if they did some sort of cross-over episode?
