I think it took me a couple episodes to get it. It didn't seem that interesting to me at all when I first started watching the pilot "Serenity" - between the opening war scene (is this going to be another Space Above & Beyond?) and the horses in the opening credits (way too western for me to...

LOL, what a comparison. Anyway, I do agree. Having seen the series first, I have much more investment in the Serenity characters and their stories. However, I think Whedon did an amazing job of making the movie accessible both to those who hadn't seen the series first and those who had. The...
