Firefly: The Big Damn Musical Episode
An epic spoof literally years in the making. Although I never watched Buffy, I know how much Mister Whedon loves his musicals, and so I just thought what a wonderfully silly parody it would have been to do one for Firefly. That was an idea I had several years ago, and kept getting put off and delayed because I wasn’t quite adept at editing enough yet to make it turn out non-crappy. I’m quite happy with the finished result, I like to think it’s equal parts ridiculous and slick. A lot of the ideas came from songs that would have worked as individual music videos if there had been a lot more footage of the series to work with (though anytime Joss wants to go make more is fine by me) but I think it works funnier more rapidfire this way. All songs used are all already up somewhere on youtube (I checked) and are listed in the credits, so if you want to hear the full versions, the search button is your friend. A special thank you to Sabrina for listening to my ideas and not finding them immediately smack-worthy. Thanks to Joss Whedon, the cast and the crew for making such a fantastic show (and not suing me). And thank you to everyone who watched and enjoyed it – it was for you.
