CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Wash (Alan Tudyk tries to safely pilot Serenity through an intense space battle.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
A band of renegades on the run in outer space get in more hot water than they anticipated in this sci-fi action-adventure adapted from the television series Firefly. In the 26th century, the galaxy has been colonized by a military force known as the Alliance, but its leadership has not gone unquestioned. The Alliance was once challenged by a league of rebels known as the Independents, but the Alliance emerged victorious after a brutal civil war, with the surviving Independents scattering around the galaxy. Also wandering the edges of the galaxy are the Reavers, who have won few allies due to their violent behavior and habit of ripping apart their enemies and eating them before they're dead. Capt. Malcolm "Mal" Reynolds (Nathan Fillion), who fought as an Independent in the galactic war, is the head of Serenity, a rogue frieghter ship whose crew includes Mal's first mate, Zoe (Gina Torres), who fought alongside him in the war, her husband, hotshot pilot Wash (Alan Tudyk), sunny but dependable mechanic Kaylee (Jewel Staite), and hard-nosed gunman Jayne (Adam Baldwin). The crew of Serenity wander the galaxy, taking on whatever work they can get, from criminal activities like smuggling and stealing to legitimately offering transport to travelers. Passengers aboard Serenity include professional "companion" Inara (Morena Baccarin) and holy man Shepherd Book (Ron Glass), but the real trouble aboard the ship comes with the arrival of Simon (Sean Maher) and his teenage sister, River Tam (Summer Glau). In time, the crew discovers that River has remarkable psychic powers and was being held captive by Alliance forces until Simon came to her rescue. Now the Alliance is hot on the heels of Serenity and its passengers, with The Operative (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a sinister Alliance tracker, leading the chase. Serenity was written and directed by Joss Whedon (in his directorial debut), creator of Firefly, which only lasted 11 weeks on the air but gained a powerful cult following who rallied to get the show released on DVD after its cancellation, leading to impressive home-video sales and and an eventual motion picture deal. A couple of months prior to Serenity's theatrical release, reruns of Firefly were picked up by the Sci-Fi channel, adding even more fans to its cult following.

that, and when ships get crippled or destroyed, they just float there on whatever inertia they had before they died. in most other scifi and especially in star wars, when a space cruiser dies, they begin listing and nose diving as if they were a ship that took a massive hull breach and began taking on water ridiculously fast. or like an airplane that lost thrust. it annoys the piss outta me.

@rodrigoxavier3222 4 жыл бұрын

@@thirdworldrider6991 That's because most time that are space battles there, they are defending an objective. Besides, most space battles in The Expanse are commonly taken between either small ships vs small ships or small ships vs big ones (such as the Donnager vs Anubis' fleet). They also fight each other closely when using machine guns but missiles are a whole different story. The problem is that rarely we saw a battle that was expected, such as the battle over Ganymede, it was something that just popped out from nowhere, so ships started to shoot each other from where they were. The only actual battle that all the ships were expecting to happen (not as it was supposed to be but you can see their formation) was the battle over Io. And there we could see how the MCRN ships were very far away from the UN ones.

My favorite part of this movie. The moment I realized what the crew of Serenity were about to do and then when I saw them deliberately pissing the reavers off I just knew what was about to unfold and it was glorious. This portion of the movie pretty much sums up the entirety of Firefly and moreso the concept of the crew and the ship. An irrelevant speck flying around in the black amongst titans of the quadrant picking the bones clean and turning everything upside down when they are truly backed into a corner. This part of the movie is amazing.

just looking at this scene, it reminds me of something that someone did in EVE Online. A player belonging to a large group was trying to defeat a massive alliance and couldn't cause their defensive fleets were too strong, so he entered a system belonging to that alliance's rival that they were at war with blew up a lot of stuff and when the fleet sent to retaliate showed up he warped into the alliance's territory and lead the rival's fleet to the main defensive fleet. His group then took a good chunk of territory while the battle took place because all the defensive fleets joined the fight.

(1:05) *_Alliance vs. Reavers_** ~* Something that many may miss, or do not understand, is that the Reavers had *ZERO* chance at victory in this battle... - a.) The Reavers rely upon surprise, numbers, and savagery in their attacks. Likewise, the Reavers' ships are a mixed collection of captured commercial &/or colony vessels, armed with scavenged &/or jury-rigged weapons. - b.) The Alliance fleet may have been hastily assembled without much preparation-time, since The Operative was rushing to intercept the Serenity crew; but they were *STILL* a fleet of naval vessels, with accordingly military-grade firepower. - c.) Only the Reavers' element of surprise and weight of numbers allowed them to (initially) overrun the Alliance blockade and land on the planet; but as shown in the end, after River Tam slaughters the ground-attacking Reavers, there is no second wave of "Reaver reinforcements" afterwards, only Alliance forces. Even when seeing this in the theaters, I knew that the Reavers would ultimately lose to the Alliance forces. But since Mal's purpose for the Reavers was _'Distraction'_ rather than _'Victory,'_ I would call that an overall success on Mal's strategic planning (despite the tragic loss of Wash). Thanks for uploading this, *Movieclips.* :)

@DaveDexterMusic 3 жыл бұрын

that scavenged emp cannon sure did the trick. this is just massive speculation from you, there are so many explanations for why no further reavers show up on the ground. narratively speaking, it makes sense that the fleets fought each other to a standstill and the alliance ground troops are just a few surviving pods converging on the operative's position.

@pendrake40 -- I agree with you that in the current condition, where the Reavers are converging with a small hunting party on the core worlds, the Reavers cannot succeed in battle against the Alliance. However, the Alliance clearly sees the Reavers as a very serious threat in the outer regions like Miranda. Otherwise, they would have sent in the fleet to clean it up (now that the War with the Independents is over). It's only in this match-up where the Alliance is in a clearly victorious or likely-to-be-victorious position.

I'd say part of Mal's plan would be for the Reavers to ultimately lose the battle, because if the Reavers won, then the Serenity crew would most certainly die as well. Also, even if the Alliance killed them, then it would be a far more merciful death than the Reavers would provide. Mal wanted the Reavers to allow Serenity to run the blockade and lose, but distract the Alliance long enough to send the message out.

The Reavers must not be completely mad. They must've kept some level of rational thinking and intelligence, because they have space ships. And those ships are in good working order and some seem to have been modified to make them deadlier.

My only issue with this scene is Mal riding the gun pod on the hull of the ship during a firefly jump drive burst..... Like, okay, inside the ship its magic artificial gravity inertial damper plating or whatever scifi woowoo. But outside?! Sitting sideways to the acceleration?! Thats at least going to be one helluva punch. However, I think I might have to steal that glorious synopsis of the scene from you XD

I like to think of Serenity(/the Firefly class) as a well engineered classic pickup. Sturdy, and if you know how - can run out-perform most new models that *look* fancy but aren't that special under the hood. And as the years go by, it gets more and more difficult/expensive to maintain (a veritable Ship of Theseus)... But they CAN be maintained because the parts are nearly all strictly mechanical. And if you can keep it (mostly) in working order, it will be a solid workhorse for a variety of tasks. Other vehicles may be bigger, some may beat it out on individual tasks - because they are designed to do that ONE thing... but for most purposes it will do any task you need it to do, and do them perfectly well, and with character.

Being mad doesn't necessarily mean stupid. Something in their brains must have been changed by the Miranda virus in the tenth of one percent but they must still be able to function logically on some level and be able to work together. This is why the Alliance`s "ignore them and they will die out" approach to the Reaver problem was doomed to failure as the Reavers had some sort of long-term strategy to increase their numbers. I suspect there was a lot more to the Reaver concept in the show that we never got to see and what we were told in the first couple of episodes was of the "what everybody knows/ urban myth" variety and wrong.

It might be a bit of an afterthought, but the fact that armed reinforcements show up to confront River at the end means that the alliance ultimately won this battle. The Reavers clearly had them put through the ringer up in space, but in the end they still prevailed. Shows that even when facing a mighty opponent, the Alliance is no slouch.

@nevermore7285 Жыл бұрын

Well that, and the Reavers aren’t well equipped, have no tactics, and care more about killing than they do their own lives.
