Serenity named top sci-fi movie
Joss Whedon’s western in space, Serenity has been voted top sci-fi movie in an SFX polls, says the BBC :-
“The TV show may have been cancelled, yet the Serenity universe clearly struck a chord with fans, thanks to its likeable characters, witty dialogue and amazing special effects.”
Is it really that good? The DVD sits on the shelf at home and quietly whispers at me “watch me, watch me” every day. So far I have resisted. Ok, I haven’t had time. The Star Wars box sets get watched quite often by myself and my son. Serenity is better that the latter 3 Star Wars films, but the originals have turned into timeless classics that will not be beaten.
The excellent new episode of Doctor Who has inspired me to start up regular Who episode postings here (like I used to). Expect some more “what my son thought of Doctor Who this week” to appear.
It’s that good – but watch the TV series first. Available for less than twenty of your earth pounds at a shop near you now.
The box set has been on my wishlist for some time now, but no one has bought it for me yet. I got Casino Royale instead.
