Jack MacKelly Posted May 2, 2005 at 03:01 PM Report Posted May 2, 2005 at 03:01 PM I know this isn't a Chinese film, but its was a really good show. A science fiction show with a mix of China and Western culture, I suppose a little like Blade-Runner was a mix of a Western view of the future with some Japanese , in Serenity our tale is set some 500 years into the future, the earth is over crowded and following the depletion of Earth's resources and an expansion of the human race into the frontier of outer space and other worlds. The show is called Firefly and the title refers to a Firefly class cargo ship named Serenity. The new future government of Earth look like a bunch of warmongering fascists, while the crew of the Firefly-class vessel "Serenity" must struggle to survive any way they can ( most of the time they're trying to find work as far away from Earth as possible and fighting with the law like Jessie James did ). There are lots of other intriguing details, like the way people all seem to speak both English and Chinese for some reason. A few people on this board like the show, you can download the trailer clip of the great movie, it seems to be getting great reviews. Quote
