Mine are typically those that shed a little light on what the Alliance really was about, such as this one: "That's what governments are for – get in a man's way" (Episode 01, Serenity) "That sounds like the Alliance. Unite all the planets under one rule so that everybody can be interfered with or ignored equally." (Episode 02, The Train Job) "A year from now, ten, they'll swing back to the belief that they can make people…better. And I do not hold to that" (Film Serenity, 2005) QUESTIONS How about you? If you liked the character, do you have a favorite Captain Reynolds quote, from either the Firefly tv series or the film Serenity (2005)? Dan |

"…if I'm wrong you best just shoot me now. (River cocks the gun) OR, we could talk a bit more." Serenity 2005 |

"I did a job. I ain't had nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regards to my character, So let me make myself abundantly clear— I do a job, then I get paid." "You don't know me son, so let me make myself plain. If I ever do kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed." "And I'd like to be the king of all Londinium and wear a shiny hat." "Whoa! There's just an acre of you fellas, isn't there?" "If your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty little bonnet, I will end you." "On the losing side, yes. Still not convinced it was the wrong one."—When told by an Alliance officer he had been "on the wrong side of the war." ‘'And I think that's an insult to the psychotic lowlife community."— On hearing a petty black market crime boss being described in this manner. "Mighty fine shindig." Firefly is one of the most quotable TV series ever. |

Too many to list. "Do you know that girl?" "I really don't" as River tears up the bar after seeing the Oatey Fruity Bar commercial |

Next time you stab me in the back, do it to my face! |

God – I miss that show… Fox is run by complete morons… |

Ah, the pitter-patter of tiny feet, in huge combat boots. SHUT UP! Jayne, your mouth is talking. You might wanna look to that. |

My favorite quote is speechless. link |
Katzbalger | 19 Aug 2018 10:03 a.m. PST |
"My days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle." "Do you want to run this ship?" then, after Jayne's obvious answer, "Well, you can't!" (but these really come after, "I aim to misbehave" in terms of a favorite.) Damn, I love that show. That 'verse still has some stories in it. Rob |

"But she was naked! And all…articulate!" |

From Jaynestown: "Jayne, You wanna tell me how come there's a statue of you here lookin' at me like I owe him somethin'?" From Serenity: "This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then – explode." |

"If your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty little bonnet, I will end you." Another vote for this. |
Narratio | 19 Aug 2018 8:15 p.m. PST |
As Parzival said – "But she was naked! And all…articulate!" Although, standing naked in front of his ship "Yep, it's been a good day!" comes awful close. |

My favourite is as much Zoe as Mal: Mal: Well look at this. 'Pears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoë: Big damn heroes, sir. Mal: Ain't we just. |

"Now, morbid and creepifyin' I can take, just as long as sgehe says it quiet-like" "Can you conjure a compelling reason as to why I should?" "Oh, I'm goin' to the Special Hell . . . " |

"A year from now, ten, they'll swing back to the belief that they can make people…better. And I do not hold to that" (Film Serenity, 2005) Think that's my favorite. Though "I'm going to that Special Hell" comes close. |
The Beast Rampant | 20 Aug 2018 1:48 p.m. PST |
"I've never seen the TV show, but Morena Baccarin is hot." I have, and her and Christina Hendricks are BOTH smokin'. You can quote me on that. |

Operative: "I can speak a word and send a missile to that exact location inside of three minutes." Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: "You do that, you'd best make peace with your dear and fluffy lord". [Mal tosses pulse beacon at the Operative]. Dan |
