Another Top Ten

Post by Ted C »

Don't start an invasion or anything. I just thought you might find this amusing.

Top Ten Reasons Why Firefly is Better than Star Wars
"This is supposed to be a happy occasion... Let's not bicker and argue about who killed who."
-- The King of Swamp Castle, Monty Python and the Holy Grail

"Nothing of consequence happened today. " -- Diary of King George III, July 4, 1776

"This is not bad; this is a conspiracy to remove happiness from existence. It seeks to wrap its hedgehog hand around the still beating heart of the personification of good and squeeze until it is stilled."
-- Chuck Sonnenburg on Voyager's "Elogium"

4. Serenity can do a Crazy Ivan. Let's see the Millenium Falcon do that.

1. Mal Reynolds ALWAYS gets to shoot first.
Dammit, when fans of other series begin making fun of it, you KNOW the rewrite of the Han/Greedo scene was wrong :evil: .

The Top One Reasons Star Wars is Better Than Something Called Firefly:

#1 - More than twelve people have heard of Star Wars.
If Religion and Politics were characters on a soap opera, Religion would be the one that goes insane with jealousy over Politics' intimate relationship with Reality, and secretly murder Politics in the night, skin the corpse, and run around its apartment wearing the skin like a cape shouting "My votes now! All votes for me! Wheeee!" -- Lagmonster

My father has seen Firefly and is trying to get me to watch it. I'm actually considering it. It was very similar to SW in only that, from what I saw when my dad was watching it, they both seemed to be used universes.

9. Unlike Boba Fett, Jubal Early could still plausibly be alive.
That didn't keep the mandalorian armored bounty hunter down, I can't really think of much that could.

Firefly rules everything. Including the PT. Including TOS. Including you.
