Firefly: The Big Damn Musical Episode

[Kimbersan]

Wow, what a great job you did on this video! It must have taken you months just to find the music to go with the clips!  Kudos to you for a job well done!

[savordagirl22]

Chitty chitty bang-bang made me lol so hard XD

[Wierdperson31]

Jayne "Kill 'Em All" Cobb. Genius.

[Varwen]

I love the fact that you used the theme from "The Magnificent Seven". xD

[sawyersusie]

Worth all the hard work I reckon! Whenever I need a boost to get me moving I put this on & I'm busy in no time. Thanx!

[DreamgirlBlue]

lol BRAVO!!!! I freakin choked on my tea thank you very much on that chitty chitty bang bang part XD

[bobpeters61]

Kick-Ass collage! I don't know how you ever came up with "Evil Woman" for her, but it fits perfectly. Watched over dinner and the "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" bit made tea come out of my nose.

[jasonyalove13]

This made me happy - thank you for the work you put into it :)

[spitfirexftw]

you genius. whoever made this, I bow before thee. :)

[cw8jwh]

Effing AWESOME.

Thanx!

[ssgrobanessa]

I just about lost it with Jayne and the guitar!!! XD

[mrnickbeyer]

The frist song, I played that for my marching band show!

[MartinandFreddie]

Great choice of songs well fitted to the visuals. Top marks Raidenshed, you have done a great job and not diminished the original in any way. I'm sure Josh,Nathan and the rest love this. Thanks for putting in the effort.

[dkerris]

Thank you for the booty shot of Nathan!

Always puts a smile on my face. ;-)



[Vadergeek]

The Beer Song isn't Weird Al.

[vortigaunt911]

What was the music during the opening? I fucking know I've heard it before, I just can't quite remember...

[scm152]

@vortigaunt911 They're all listed at the end. The very first one, if that's what you mean, is apparently the theme from The Magnificent Seven. It's on youtube at /watch?v=9iteRKvRKFA

[rndfunction]

Laughed a few times (most notably on Chitty Chitty Bang Bang). Very nicely edited.

[MyStrangeBehavior]

Who said there weren't cows in space!

[MBW600]

Great work!, very well timed. Where is the Love button??

 !!!!!!!Browncoat for life!!!!!!

[urbanfantasyfan]

what was the opening score from?

[Vaunripped]

@urbanfantasyfan im not sure but i think its bonanza

[BetaFett]

ha ha. Awesome. Favourited :)

[BobMillahhh]

I fucking love Aaron Copland.

[Loner855]

Great job but one question

what part is 4:35 from I never rember that?????

[raidenshred]

@Loner855 The song or the clip? The song is Evil Woman by E.L.O.

The actual clip is from Trash where YoSaffBridge tries to make her ex think she still loves him and Mal's clearly heard that one before.

[FireflyFanatic3x]

@raidenshred HAHA! lol ... thumbed up just because you called her "YoSaffBrdige" lol :P

[toddh1988]

@raidenshred What part? The guy (supposedly Mal) has a beard??

[maclaird]

@Loner855 Our Mrs Reynolds

[tcpiii]

@Loner855 The episode was one of a couple that was not broadcast in the original run. They have been shown in synidation and one the DVDs.

[djrak9]

GREAT WORK!

[phaetoan]

Hi! I' m so missing this show...I love Nathan Fillion...

You have such a good taste in music:D I love it... You should watch Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog...it's on youtube too...

[meant2live747]

What song was used at the very beginning? I know it was a movie soundtrack from a western that I've seen before, but I don't know which one....

[fishfingersncustard]

@meant2live747 Found it! It's the theme from the Magnificent Seven.

[johnnahodil]

i laughed my frakkin ass off!.......whoops,...sorry battlestar

[MagDuke]

The perfect way to waste 10 minuets - thank you so much.

[MJGrindboy]

Mooo!

[spokar1]

love it !

[dragonzuela]

Hilariously quirky!  I love it!

[simeoneous]

Was that 'Elvis & I' by Denis Leary?! Crikey! Haven't heard that in a while.

[IrishSkyeOMalley]

Awesome! Can I ask what program you used for the vid captures? Beautiful crystal clear pics, and non of my have turned out like that, which I why I have not moved into moving vids.

[ShadesOfKnight]

MoooO! Priceless.

[DruidLass]

Totally made of win!! Loved it!!

[n122vu]

Hilarious! Very well done! I also laughed my butt off on the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang part. Thanks for making this!

[ShadesOfKnight]

I love how "I've got the brains" kept showing River. LOL

[MrHaddonfield]

[sapphirecat]

[ladyirish711]

I miss cpt. tighpants lol

[Anvilshock]

Genius, I had tears in my eyes from laughing. Thank you!

[brennal1979]

Loved Jayne & the Elvis song. This was really great!

[FireboltX7]

So shiny! I literally rolled on my bed laughing when "I'm Going Slightly Mad" came up. Gorram amazing job!

[Commybebe]

Takin' Care of Business was the best one! Good Job!

[Robikus]

cool, would have like to seen more context but not a lot to work with given how it was done.

[KaGoMusic]

Hilarious! Thanks!

[BoilingSnowCones]

Little bit of BTO for ya. Thanks man, that was awesome!

[riesheridan]

That was awesomeness incarnate. I nearly laughed myself sick on the "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" section. And I loved the "Moo-ving" transitions.

My only quibble was that the credits moved too fast to see all the songs. Can you post the list somewhere? (or send it to me in a message...)

[Katmarie100]

Most triumphant..sorry, wrong show! Shiny! That's better. Some very apt music choices, loved the River Tam, I'm going slighly mad one. Added to my Favourites!

[mnemonicknockout]

Raidenshred, I love you. Run away with me.

[windchimes098]

cool. very, very cool. thank you!

[hellaballooba]

I love the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang scene- especially since I can remember how tense that scene is in the movie :)

[hellaballooba]

I love the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang scene :) Nice.

[HardLovinLoser]

takin' care of business---  Perfect...

But you missed the perfect solo for River, Patsy Kline's Crazy

[riverfiretcm]

This is pretty funny!

Really good fast edits.

[ROSST1011]

Funny shit.Nice job.

[Ladco77]

That was brilliantly done. Bravo!

[Diablagato]

Very nicely done! I'm just finally getting into Firefly and I enjoyed this a lot! Good job!

[ShadesOfKnight]

Mooooo!

[genesismindworks]

years eh. Not that bad...not...really years worth of work though. But amzing enough.

[Kigoheart]

Thumbs up for "The Captain is a Very Moral Man" !!!

[00ColdFusion00]

Yay for magnificent 7 music

[AlbertaRose94]

Well done! As someone who has seen the series on television many times and watched the DVDs many times, I don't have to ask how many times you've seen the episodes to do the spoof so accurately. (It also means I don't think you need to get a life or seek help, LOL!)

[ilovemymagentatiger]

The choices of songs were amazing. Whedon should get the cast back together and make a musical episode, and I'm not joking. XD

[virginiarules510]

That was so shiny, you have no idea! Great job!

[wombathree]

Lots of fun. Well done!

[sqlkitty]

Hey, join the Facebook page Petition for a Sequel to Serenity! The time is ripe!

[ShadesOfKnight]

The BEER song? Seriously? LOL

[Faustina87]

What is the song 3:43 - 4:11?

[Faustina87]

What is the 3:43 - 4:11 ?

[BlueCatShip]

Highly Shiny! (Moo!)

[ShalkaDoctor]

God I love Firefly. This was just great fun to watch. Well done.

[SourlaApple]

Loved it!

[SourlaApple]

Loved it!

[Raycheetah]

Awesome shiny vid! =^[.]^=

[NorwEllen]

Hahaha, brilliant! Best show ever! But as much as I loved ur spoof, I seriously hope Whedon NEVER does a musical of Firefly :P Tho I'd like some more. Whedon? Pwetty pwease?? BRING BACK FIREFLY!!! :D

[tabaxi1]

I love Firefly!!! and the fans too!! Great video!!

[ianhowefan]

amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[goatbasher]

random cows make me smile

[shagel7]

this was really cute :) I especially liked the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang part

[excogxoxo]

Loved the "edited by." :P Great job!

[Koru]

'Girls who try to look pretty...'

*look of disgust*

Lol.

[davmodf]

I hate musicals but that was *#%?$@ Awesome!

Firefly was the greatest TV show . . . EVER.

[shadowflower93]

Omg this was amazing dude!

[windchimes098]

never realized how much dancing they had in that show. :)

[ILoveYugiandYami]

ROFL! This was epic. I almost didn't watch, but then i figured hey what the hell I'll do it

[CRAZYTREKKIE]

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and The Beer Song killed me. I loved it!

[portinaribe]

Marlboro... ! Whoa !

[TheLadyOphelia]

I think this was great! Better than all the fan/music vids for Firefly I've seen yet. I really enjoyed how creative you got with the editing, especially Jayne & his guitar, haha! Excellent, excellent! Thank you for your work and for sharing. I'm going to be watching this many times.

[sofalogic]

Superb editing, No crap. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was hilarious. Loved the cow seque (segway for those of you from Rio Linda). This took an intimate knowledge of both the show and a vulgar ration of music. Kudos

[merloon]

This particular version of "The Beer Song" is by They Might Be Giants

[beddows101]

this made my day its funny as hell .......

[UndeadFatality]

holy fuck i miss this show ; - ;

[kingofschnitzels]

This is... amazing...

[OptomisCrashdown]

decent editing, but you killed it man. its like trying to touch up the mona lisa. if you want to mess around with something; pick something that needed improving

[raidenshred]

@OptomisCrashdown Wasn't trying to "improve" anything, was just having some fun.

[MagDuke]

@raidenshred Don't worry, that poster was bloody wrong anyways.

[OptomisCrashdown]

very good editing, but i'd have to say any of these scenes alone is better than any montage could ever be, you can't do touch up work on the mona lisa son

[Rolarin77]

this was the best firefly vid iv found plus loved chitty chitty bang bang with the reavers

[dsh156]

Shiny indeed! Well done.

[almalinda06]

I have to tell you.... I watched ten seconds of this before I added it to my favorites. (dont worry, i finished watching it after ;) You are A-FUCKING-MAAAAAZING.

[awwwyeaboyeeee]

Great collage! Thanks for posting!

[ukronin]

That last Natinal Express song was a great great way to send off the AMV and Firefly. Bravo.

[StillFlyingInc]

I have seen a LOT of crappy AMV's, and I am proud to say that this is NOT one of them. your timing is spot on, and you kept the clips consistent with the theme of the music. Good job, and keep flying!

[molycatherose]

SHINY!

[666razerbladekiss]

ah yes singing chitty chitty bang bang while being chased by reavers. makes it seemed better huh?

[FridayzGirl]

just plain awesome!!!!!!!!

[No13Null]

This is actually really, REALLY well done...you gave a lot of attention to exactly what clips would work best and how to splice them, plus you let the shows sound bleed through in all the right places and the music you used was perfect for the clips you matched it up to...

You're awesome man...

[library1900]

Shiney :)

[beithlives]

awesome awesome great. I totally lost it at Chitty Chitty Bang Bang but overall just a complete hoot. Thanks so much! Firefly fans ROCK.

[TheTwisteddjinni]

i have not laughed that hard for ages. I salute you for a fantastic vid.

[littleoneisnotright]

Holy crap! that was amazing!!!

[Kcboats]

AWESOME!! If Joss has not seen this, he needs to...great job sir!

[1freckleface2]

Haha! This is true masterpiece. "Chitty chitty bang bang" "evil woman" and "going mad had me crying! hope u do more cuz this made my day!

[tyrantasaurus]

[MiguelCC51]

MOO!

[library1900]

Thanks so much :)

[katiepult]

Best Firefly video ever! Had me cracking up all over the place (but especially at Chitty-chitty bang bang)! Very well done :) Ty for the laughs

[robokorean]

This was the first episode I ever saw and just couldnt stop laughing at how Mal handles the swordfight with Atherton, and afterwards with Inara

''I got stabbed, look!''

[xxCorianderxx]

This must be what going mad feels like.

[Queenoframble]

LOVE IT!

[therealmbassy]

epic and funny

[neadst]

A laughed SO hard at "I'm going slightly mad..."

BRILLIANT! XD

[Proud2BHoodie]

BRILLIANT!!! I thought in the beginning that it wasn't going to be great, but I was certainly wrong! The way you almost did a medley for each character! Such a good job!! =D

[katsiri]

AAllll this and just 14 episodes and a movie. And we could have so much more!

The love keeps flying!

[RobinSandza]

Awsome!! Hilarious!

[BlackMorningGlory314]

[Hex8899]

[UnderscoreWV]

[MrRuger7722]

This is the episode that Joss should have made. I laughed so hard I literally cried.

[MagDuke]

Favorited.

[elspeff]

"National Express" made me pee myself with laughter - joyous, joyous, joyous. Thank you so much for this.

[VickTheQuick]

most underrated video on Youtube!

This must have taken you so damn long...

[CleoPixiND]

Too funny!

[Addicted2PATD]

haha WOW!... my mom sent me this... thanks mom!

[ApolloXVIII]

So good.

[butterflytuddles]

fantastic. mr whedon will love it.

[raidenshred]

Joss, if you're watching this, it means you haven't called your lawyers (yet), and I would do this job for free! =p

[t0ms3rv0]

Just imagine what you could have done if there had been more than 14 episodes.

[raidenshred]

Yeah, I know the feeling. This really was the James Dean of TV shows, wasn't it?

[browncoats4ever]

I took the liberty of posting this on a Joss Whedon Fan site. Your viewer numbers have jumped sky high lol! :D
