Identifying the Important Plot Points in Joss Whedon's "Serenity"

Just over ten years ago, on September 30th, 2005, Joss Whedon‘s Serenity hit theaters. It was a modest success at the box office, but was well regarded amongst fans of Whedon’s short-lived, cult status television show, Firefly, which introduces Serenity’s crew and their adventures through space.

We want to know: did the movie resonate with you? What are your opinions on the screenplay? Fell free to discuss any aspect of this intriguing cinematic continuation of the television series, Firefly.

I agree that some of the arcs felt a little rushed. It would have been amazing to have had a few seasons to explore them all.

I liked the movie, but like all Firefly fans I suspect it made me a little sad, because it felt like Whedon knew he had to close as many of the awesome story arcs from the series as he could in a two hour movie. So some things felt rushed that could have taken years to explore if the folks at Fox weren't such a group of knuckleheads.

I've not read the screenplay, I'm responding more to my gut reaction to the movie.
