Quick question. Can anyone think of a specific moment in Firefly that could be considered Postmodern?

(*is tempted to use her presentation tomorrow to convert some folk, so preferably a shiny clip*)

How do you mean postmodern? *is stupid*

[naughtyelf]

Well - an example of postmodernism. It's an arty movement, like the guy who painted soup cans *nods* Hah. I can't explain it, but ... I know a lot of people on my friendslist are media students like me (or are just insanely clever, hee!) and will be able to help out.

The shot in the pilot with the girl with writing on her face.

Thanks!

I agree that as a whole concept its very postmodern...shame I can't just make them sit and watch the pilot as my presentation, eh? :D

Would the scene of all the cows in the hold count? Using a starship for what basically amounts to a cattle drive?

[naughtyelf]

Ohh yes! Ha! Perfect! :D

Thanks Lara!!

You could always say Inara is - a woman selling her favors and is respected? For shame! ;-)
