my little serenity

you gotta love the world's new reborn obsession with My Little Ponies when it brings you this...

this helps

So, forgive us for a lack of posts of late, 2/3 of our 3pies4roll-ers call Arizona our hometown, and have been hit hard by the news from last weekend. Our internal mantra is "the blog is for awesome" (that's why you won't find pop culture stories of domestic violence, etc. here), and it's hard to post about awesome when you're very sad about the world. This blog is around for those things that make us happy. And, on that note, we get this:



Apparently the Firefly props team made a habit of adding a miniature Han Solo in Carbonite replica (check the red boxes in the images above) to sets in order to mess with Nathan Fillion (a big Star Wars fan). So 1) this is awesome 2)I apparently need to watch all the episodes over again with the sole goal of finding more examples (some more examples here) and 3) you can get mini Han Solo in carbonite replicas???

maybe it wouldn't have been cancelled in the 80's...

Why did someone decide to re-imagine the Firefly opening credits as if it was made in the 80's? because SHUT THE HELL UP, that's why. Again, a tip of the hat to people with too much time on their hands...



you might notice a very important doctor was left out of those credits. One excuse given was that it made it too long (seriously, you couldn't make time for Simon?), but apparently the truth is that he and the somewhat known extras just got their own spinoff...



thanks to hot tipper kristen!

Together again...
