trailer conundrum
Thursday, April 28, 2005

So I watched the trailer...several times. in fact my roommate has barred me from her laptop because I watched it so many times. yeah. cool. stoked. excited. haven't stopped jumping and sqealing. tasty. sept 30 wont come soon enough. and no, I was 3 hours too slow to get tickets for the preview screenings. very very very very sad.

but that is not the topic of this blog. the trailer is, which I have some questions about. who are these six rebels? there are nine on the Serenity. that means, by my calculations, three are not "rebels." Book and Inara would come into that not category, but who is the other? Kaylee? but she likes crime, that is part of the definition of a rebel. ah, I suppose all of my questions will be answered when the movie comes out. or unless anyone has an extra ticket for San Fran, Sacramento, or Vegas, then I could know sooner...hint, hint.

.. use small / medium / large view trailer options ...
not the full screen option as I think that requires additional downloads

I agree with SimonWho.

The text reads:
A PASSENGER WITH A PAST
SIX REBELS ON THE RUN
AN EMPIRE IN PURSUIT

Assuming, as it seems most of us are that Book and Inara are regular passengers, and not necessarily crew, this makes River the passenger with a past, and Mal, Zoe, Wash, Jayne, Kaylee and Simon the Six Rebels on the Run.

hmm, never looked at it that way, jus picked Kaylee as the other to not be a rebel since her main function is to run the engine, but u could say the saem on Wash, so 7 minus 2, works out nicely.

Remember, the movie rehashes everything that happened since the Battle of Serenity (and maybe more). That bit is probably for the people who haven't seen the show. So the original 6 are most likely the 6 rebels, and the others are still considered passengers.

You forget, we have inside info. :)

Everyone keeps talking about the trailer. I want to watch it. What is the website?

Actually, by Simonwho's calculation that would leave 7 (there are 9 core cast members). I've actually pondered this question more than I should. I've come up with two competing scenarious.

1. Core Crew Theory
Mal, Inara, Jayne, Zoe, Wash, and Kaylee are the six rebels. Excluding Simon, River and Book who could just be passengers.

2. Crew Role
Arguably, due to their past connections, we could assume that we should exclude Inara and Book from the six. Additionally while they fly on Serenity, they don't officially do anything on the ship. Since River really doesn't have an assigned role, apart resident genius and dangerous passenger, she might be the other contender.

Just my thoughts on this troubling question.

... which is Book. Although he'll be on board for a bit, for sure.

The trailer states one dangerous passenger (presumably River) and 6 rebels on the run. We also know from the series that Inara was leaving the ship which just leaves one of the regulars not to be on board.
