  • Having only watched a couple episodes of Firefly and the movie Serenity, I wouldn’t say “better” but different.

    Serenity/Firefly is slightly softer sci-fi, while I’d say The Expanse is fairly hard sci-fi. Expanse, at least in the books, they actually go weeks and months in space between stops and make it a point to tell you; while from what I remember in Serenity they treat going to another planet as going on a couple days road trip.










  • I see 2 and 3 as one continuous story. Lord Cutler Beckett is basically the personification of capitalism and industrialism. He spends his time killing or taking over these “free” people who all do whatever they want whenever they want with no masters and no one telling them what to do, and subjugating them under the yoke of the changing new world.

    Idk I’m kinda high right now. I like Beckett as a villain, because he represents certain aspects of the human spirit and he is at the end just a dude. He’s not an immortal squid-man and he’s not an undead were-skeleton.
