Firefly’s Most Problematic Character Still Deserves Better 23 Years Later

by

Inara Serra is a standout character in Firefly, but looking back, some of her storylines haven’t aged well. While the show was forward-thinking for its time in depicting a sex worker, modern feminist perspectives reveal problematic and sexist elements within that portrayal, consistent with other works by Joss Whedon. Despite this, Inara remains a highlight of the series, brilliantly brought to life by Morena Baccarin, and she deserved a more thoughtfully written arc.

by

The God Slayer is a game being developed with support from PlayStation’s China Hero Project, a program designed to help Chinese developers create games for a worldwide audience. This project also helped bring Lost Soul Aside to life.

CryptoQuant Chart

During November’s romp-let’s call it Wall Street’s unexpected post-party hangover-the Coinbase Premium Index fell into a quirky, mismatched tango with negative digits, showing a party of US spot buyers as only mildly interested in comparison to their offshore loving friends. As Bitcoin did the Twist back below $90k, the painful dip in the red of this index was a look that said, ‘Hold my drink, pal, while I make my escape.’

TMNT Last Ronin Box Set Out Now And On Sale For Nearly 40% Off

by

The Last Ronin box set is a convenient way to own the complete story, but it costs more than buying each graphic novel separately. If you don’t need the special box, you could save around $15 by purchasing the three novels individually. With those savings, you could even pick up ‘The Last Ronin: The Covers’ – a 200-page hardcover collection of variant artwork by a fantastic group of artists like Freddie E. Williams II, Peach Momoko, and Stan Sakai – which is currently on sale for $16.27 (originally $35).

Cynthia Erivo Wanted Elphaba’s Cardigan to Show a “Softer” Side

by

Paul Tazewell, the costume designer for Wicked, explained that Elphaba’s cardigan acted like a comfortable robe, especially considering she didn’t have access to modern stores. He told NPR that she creates her own clothes, weaving them in her treehouse from materials around her, and the sweater fits that resourceful character.

Perhaps a future Wicked story could explore Elphaba’s journey into the world of fabrics and textiles.

This influence isn’t surprising, as Quentin Tarantino’s films are so detailed and engaging that viewers continue to find new things to appreciate with each rewatch. Many fans believe an extended cut would only enhance the experience.
