Batman Begins and Serenity

Batman Begins was as good as I remembered it. I really do like this one better than any other Batman movie I've seen. The DVD, however, was teh suck. No special features other than the movie trailer. Uh-huh. Not spending money on that one.

Serenity, on the other hand...
I tried watching Firefly because of Joss, I really did. I did not get it and moved on to something else. Occasionally I regretted that I could not share the Firefly love that popped up in all areas of my life, online and off. That said, I really liked this movie. It was fun and snarky in the way Buffy was when it was really good, and suspenseful and engaging, and every other thing it should have been. I loved it, even without being a Firefly fan.

Not only did I love the movie, but I loved the DVD. Joss IS a fan, and that is apparent in his work on this DVD. Bunches of great bonus features, including mini-interviews with ComiCon attendees and cast members, trailers, background on the world of Firefly and on making a cancelled Firefly into a major motion picture. Loved, loved, loved this DVD. I might even have to put Firefly on my Netflix list and give it another try now, I was so moved.

BSG finale

If you can respond to this, please attempt to do so without spoiling me for this episode, because I have not seen it yet. Thanks.

Anyway, my TiVO copy ends with Baltar standing somewhere with a group of what appear to all be Cylons, looking soulfully and sadly at Six, then he turns to say something and thwap!, off goes the recording. The TiVO in the other office also ends early, with long-haired Kara and some other people standing underneath something, with Cylons coming down the walkway, and she says something, and thwap!, off goes the recording.

Is there more to this - as in did anything earth-shatteringly important happen after Baltar turns to say something? Would this be an occasion where it would be well worth the $ to purchase this ep on iTunes?

ETA: I decided to just go with the iTunes option. Saves me a tape, and I got to watch it while I was working on something else.
