Firefly / Serenity
Sometimes, life just works backwards. I went to watch the movie Serenity some time ago, and because I enjoyed it a lot, I researched it a little afterwards, to find out it was based (well, a little more than based, actually) on a TV series called Firefly, which only ran one season, and was cancelled. Proof of its quality.
The whole “feel” of both the show and the movie is just right. It’s a space western, with witty dialogue, beautiful women, fast gun draws, and scientifically correct silent space scenes. The only fault with it was being a bit too clever for most audiences…
I recommend watching the series first and the movie afterwards, it will make the experience much more interesting.
