I went out shopping for DVDs earlier, and I was utterly incapable of finding one I wanted. In the end, I picked up Serenity*, which may not sound particularly bad to you until you realize that I already own it (though, granted, it’s temporarily missing).

How much money does Hollywood spend each year? Why can’t they come up with at least a couple of movies I’d like to own?

* You remember Serenity, right? It’s the movie that finishes up the story of Firefly, a television show that, in the words of its creator, Joss Whedon, “was immediately hailed by critics as the most cancelled show of the year.” Firefly and Serenity were much better than their commercial success might seem to indicate, and if you’ve not seen them, you should do so. Now.
