I just want to go on record that I've never raped, killed, or stolen things. The worst thing I've got on my record are speeding tickets!

BrooklynBruiser posted:Because they're convinced that if Fox hadn't messed with the airdates/episode order, it would have been a massive, massive hit. It wasn't all sunshine and lollipops from the fandom, either. I get that there are a lot of different geek groups that overlap, but when Firefly was coming out I remember there being a lot of complaints from fandom that it was a rip-off of Outlaw Star, Trigun and Cowboy Bepop just from the first trailers and the plot synopsis.. I recall some very vocal fandom really condemning the show on those points and a chunk of people already writing it off based on that.

Anime shares elements with another anime: They're part of the same sub-genre, there is natural overlap. Anime shares elements with a non-anime: It's a coincidence, an homage or it inspired it. But it's still ALL original. Nothing else! Non-anime shares elements with anime: It's a rip-off! HOW DARE THEY!

Josh Lyman posted:Yeah. Although people may try to limit it to shows that discuss more adult topics, things you might recognize like Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball Z, and Pokemon count as anime. That's a hell of a custom title you got there. zoux posted:*Raises index finger* Actually they should hear it as Annie May, if you are pronouncing correctly. Please tell me this isn't a thing.

Dragonball Evolution was based on Dragonball Z  edit: -Blackadder- posted:How is Almost Human? Watch it. The first two episodes are the best for setting up the procedural sci-fi cops style. If you don't like either, it's probably not the show for you. Pilot and Skins are real tone setters for the series. Postal Parcel fucked around with this message at 18:55 on Dec 17, 2013 |

Firefly is far from a perfect show, and it's not even the best thing Whedon's done, but you really can't say whether it would have been successful or not because Fox really did screw it over. That's not a Whedon fanboy thing, that's an undeniable fact. edit: Dollhouse is better than Firefly.

Look at Breaking Bad's opening, that had poo poo happening. It has downtime sure, but there's no opening lull, I hate an opening lull. Start your drat show off with a loving bang or don't start it at all.
