Wow, that was a ride and a half. Some parts nailed, some not so much, some characters felt a little false, others rang true. Worth the wait, though.

Love the Reavers explanation. Whedon's still a bastard. Wish we would have found out more about Book. There was much discussion afterwards on whether the big battle at the end was the opportunity to cull *actors* who couldn't or wouldn't sign on for a sequel movie or series. Any one of them could have died, it just happened to be Wash... although it could have been a little more, y'know... heroic. Although I'm sure that would have just come across as melodramatic and staged, sooooo... *shrug* The randomness of life is one of the overall themes of the series and movie, so I guess it fits.

Both Alan Tudyk and Ron Glass are actually signed on for all three movies. Joss has said that the next one, if it gets made, will concentrate much more on those two characters.

How is indeed the big question.

I spent the hour after I first saw it saying, over and over, "I can't believe he killed Wash! Joss, you bastard!"
