Hey! It’s Troy Bolton as a Young Simon Tam!

Posted in Television, tagged , , , , , , , , , on October 4, 2012| Leave a Comment »

I love watching something, seeing a familiar actor from a certain television show or movie, and then yelling, “hey it’s [insert characters name] from [insert television]!”  In this case, I guess this happened a couple of years ago when I first saw Firefly.  One of the flashbacks roll around regarding a young version of Simon and River Tam at their household.  When I saw Zac Efron, all I could see was a young Troy Bolton being conflicted with his choice about doing sports or singing songs rather than the difficult decisions he’s going to go through to saving his sister from the government.  I guess it turned out okay for both of them in the end.  Simon Tam ended up saving his sister and ‘boning’ Kaylee, the mechanic, and Zac Efron went on to do Hairspray and that reverse gender/plot 13 going on 30.

Happy endings for all.

Super awesome artist Kristele has a very distinct art style.  We’ve featured her banner including all these Firefly characters before, but now I wanna give her credit to these awesome individual pieces.These awesome character profiles of each character could totally serve as a template for a Firefly animated series.  I would watch that.  I would watch anything Firefly related.  All this recent Firefly posting makes me mis the show again…Sigh…time to go watch Firefly and Serenity for like the 50th time….

See the rest of the character profiles and then visit her deviantart profile I linked above.

Nathion Fillion Firefly Outtakes

Posted in Character Profiles, Television, tagged , , , , , , , , , on August 9, 2012| 1 Comment »

A small and short video for ya’ll demonstrating how awesome Nathan Fillion.  Claimed geek god by many for his portrayal of the unforgettable Malcolm Reynolds in one season of Firefly and the awesome movie Serenity, Nathan Fillion is known for generating plenty of antics as seen in the video above.  During a dramatic scene, Fillion decides to carry dramatic in one camera pan across the entire crew. Appearing several times with a dead pan expression.  Some actors can’t handle it, but the ending is especially nice.  If you’re a fan of Firefly or Serenity, do yourself a favor and watch the clip.  If you’re not, do yourself a favor and watch both the series and movie and become a part of a Cult group that will be forever angry at the early death of a beloved show.

Morning Banana Oatmeal: Series Netflix Should Revive

Posted in Lists, Television, tagged , , , , , on July 19, 2012| Leave a Comment »

Netflix has gloriously taken it upon themselves to broadcast the new mini season of Arrested Development.  This begs the questions: why on Earth don’t all people cut the middle men and skip network programming altogether.  We’re moving into an age, where [at least in my opinion] television is largely watched through our computers.  How convinient all that would be!  Anywho, back to this post, following Arrested Development, The Street compiled 10 canceled television shows that should be revived in the same manner as Arrested Development.  Some got their due [like Firefly above], but not everyone is always happy.

The Avengers Gets Another Joss Whedon Opening

Posted in Movies, Television, tagged , , , , , , , , , on July 17, 2012| Leave a Comment »

He’s absolutely more known for the Avengers, but let’s take another step back into something he’s done in the past. No, not Dollhouse, that weird prostitute show that starred the sexy Eliza Dushku. No not Buffy: The Vampire Slayer that pre-Twilight vampire crazed show that starred the sexy Sarah Michelle Gellar. But right inbetween there: Firefly. And that’s today’s awesome mash up that combines two of Joss Whedons ultimate babies. I’ve posted before what was already missing from the Avengers, and this is also very relevant.

In Firefly related news, I heard they had a panel and the San Diego Comic Con, where he teared up at the many fans who showed up. Dammit, what I’d give to get that show back on the air. For nostalgia sake, the original opening is below.

What Joss Whedon’s Avenger’s was Missing

Posted in Movies, tagged , , , on May 14, 2012| 1 Comment »

The image is subtle.  If you haven’t seen it yet, there is clearly a man who isn’t an Avenger with this series of heroes.  For the ignorant, that man is Nathan Fillion, unofficial Geek God.  To the mainstream, he’s known as Castle, but to the geek underground he will always be Malcolm Reynolds from Joss Whedon series: Firefly and Serenity.  I kinda wish he’d be a bigger deal in Hollywood, but he’s a bit too old for Hollywood to make him a big star.  Photoshopped images are all we’ll get out of him.
