Major Fannish Events

[thefourthvine]

For various reasons, right now I'm thinking about Major Fannish Events I Wish I Could Have Seen. Now, when I say that, I don't mean the actual events, most of which are available on DVD or at least on some fourth-generation cell phone recording somewhere, but the fannish reaction to those events

Seeing that Joss Whedon hates joy through the movie Serenity is pretty high on the list.

More personally, the very end of Six Feet Under had me crying for almost a half-hour, with about ten of those minutes being after the episode ended.

I've seen a couple vids for Six Feet Under that had me crying. I don't think I could stand any part of the series.

And I know what happened in Serenity, even though I've never seen the movie - seperis linked to a vid that showed that sequence. I had no idea who those people were. But that woman's (um, I don't remember her name, because I have never seen Firefly and only remember two names, but, you know, Wash's wife) voice, the way it sounded - I ended up crying. *sniffle*

Oh Six Feet Under. My heart broke.

I first saw Serenity at a screening at the San Diego Comic Con, with Joss Whedon in attendance. Once the film was done and everyone was done cheering and Joss stood up at the front, my friend yells out, "Joss, you bastard!" and then the name of the character.

I saw Serenity for the first time in Las Vegas at a special screening with Joss Whedon in attendance and I can say that when Wash died almost everyone in the theater turned and looked at him. The evil eye was in full effect.

That must have been the best thing ever!

It really was! And the first question was "Why Wash?"
