First off, let me admit some­thing: I’m a Joss Whedon fanboy. I resisted get­ting into Buffy and Angel for a long time, but after a couple episodes, I was hooked. That was good goddam TV.

And Fire­fly was great. I was one step from buying a brown trench­coat and print­ing my own Blue Sun t-shirts when they can­celled it. So please keep all of that in mind for the next bit.

Seren­ity was the best movie I’ve seen all year.

Char­lie and the Choco­late Fac­tory was good. Don’t get me wrong - I liked it. But there were too many miss­ing ele­ments and flawed deci­sions. And I even man­aged to enjoy parts of Episode III. Parts. But Seren­ity was mag­nif­i­cent. I laughed out loud, I cringed in my seat, and I left the the­ater feel­ing amazing.

So here’s my ques­tion, world: what the hell is wrong with you people? $10.1 mil­lion? That’s the best you can do? I don’t want to hear your excuses. You sicken me. There’s only one way you can make this up to me.

Go see the movie.
