You can't take the sky from me

Serenity

(2005)
Don't get me wrong: when I saw this 10 years ago, with zero background in the criminally short-lived Fox series Firefly, I thought it was a kickass hoot. But now that I've watched the series (and worked out to most of the DVD commentaries), what a rich and fulfilling experience this screening was. That Joss Whedon was able to reassemble the entire cast, 3 years after the series was canceled, tells you how they felt about the project's worth. They were right.
