A movie made for and because of the fans of Firefly. I saw this movie twice in the theatre and once on DVD, so far. It is the follow/wrap up of the storylines of the television show Firefly. Firefly followed the lives of a rag tag band of misfits who were dreamers, runaways, hardened war veterans and religious. The story recaps part of the series and attempts to get you up to speed with the characters, however you really needed to have watched the firefly series to really be a full part of the experience. The action was bigger and the special effects better and the dialogue was pure Joss (which means most cool). The enemies were more real and the biggest mysteries of the TV show were revealed. I wish this show had not been taken off the air.
The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...
