A Websnark bedtime story by Eric Burns
"this was an IM conversation" "pretty much as it happened real time".

It's a nice little fairy tale.

I'm going to have throw my hat in with the many bloggers out there recommending you go see Serenity before it leaves the cinema.
It doesn't look like it's going to be there long.
It's a sci fi western sort of thing by Josh Whedon (creator of Buffy and Angel) based on a cancelled TV series called firefly.
Don't worry if you haven't seen Firefly, Serenity more than stands up on it's own (although it apparently is even better if you've seen the series).
The thing that impressed me most had to be the pacing. It's a rare movie where my mind doesn't wander once. I was engrossed the whole was through.
