The hero of Canton, the man they call Jayne...

The local comic book expo held a screening of Serenity tonight, which was awesome. I hadn't seen the movie on the big screen since, well, since the movie first came out. It's so nice watching it with other Browncoats. You all laugh at the same places and we still all laugh even though everyone's probably watched Serenity like a dozen times. And Wash's death still hits you like a tonne of bricks. Everyone's laughing, ha, leaf on the wind, and, oh, much sadness. It's the hallmark of anything Joss writes. Humour and angst all within the same breath.

And Adam Baldwin's coming to the expo! Whoo! I totally called it. I noticed he'll be appearing at two other cons next year, so it it seems he's doing the con circuit. Likely because Chuck got cancelled; the man has some free time now. The expo people also acknowledged that they've been trying to get Nathan Fillion as a guest for a few years now but still no luck. Damn you, Castle! ;-)

I think the expo should have a panel with Adam Baldwin and James Marsters, who's also coming. Both of them were on Angel but they also did a DC animated movie together, Superman: Doomsday. The fine men of the Whedonverse in one place. Why not?

I hope someone starts belting out "The Hero of Canton" during Adam's panel. :-)
