Serenity Chronicles II: War Stories

A great edit, I only wish the trilogy lasted longer.

Part 2 of the Firefly series by MusicEd is quite an interesting one... It definitely carries a much darker and sinister tone than the first installment. Almost feels like there is a new director at the helm.

The pacing was a bit slower, the jokes were fewer in between, but it was still good. Between the 3 films, this feels the furthest away from the series as a whole. Not necessarily a bad thing, but also very different than my expectations.

Editing-wise - flawless. Absolutely professional editing quality. Just makes me hope that the deleted scenes will be released in 1080p... :)

You really did fine job of converting this TV series into a trilogy of movies!
Your work convinces me that that FireFly should continue as a movie series!
Audio & Video & Narrative edits just flowed so well.
The only thing to make these edits better would be the video to be in hi def 1080p!
Thank you MusicEd921!

This is from my review of part 3 of the trilogy which judges the trilogy as a whole.

Bottom line: If you like sci fi, please give this edit a try, you won't regret it. It is Amazing!

Review- I missed the entire Firefly run when it was out but my dad's a fan so I decided to check this out. It was fantastic. I love TV-to-movie edits because, when done right, they tell the core story of the series without being bogged down by the commercial motivation all TV shows have to keep expanding/adding fluff to meet a series quota. Entertaining, well acted, and well paced, this is an edit anyone who likes good sci fi should catch. It is reminiscent simultaneously of Battlestar Galactica and spaghetti westerns, and thats as good as you can get. Nathan Fillion is great in it as well as the rest of the cast.

This edit is done perfectly, it captures the essence of a solid sci fi show, and I bought the series just to watch and recommend this musiced's work here. Highest recommendation for this trilogy! Congrats man.

I'm going to use the same review for all three parts of the Serenity Chronicles, because in my opinion, they need to be viewed as a complete package for maximum effect.

MusicEd921 does an outstanding job of tying together the entire series, plus the feature film Serenity, and condensing the essence of the show into 3 feature length DVDs. When I originally contacted MusicEd921 regarding these edits, I mentioned that I was planning a weekend binge-watch of the entire series plus Serenity, something that I do every year or so...

From now on, I'll be binging on these DVDs instead--they're THAT good.

I give a 9 rating on A/V quality solely because of the quality of some of the deleted scenes that were incorporated into the edits. As mentioned previously in other reviews, the quality of these scenes was lower simply because they were not remastered for the DVD release. Not MusicEd921's fault at all.

If you are a Firefly fan, you need to see these edits. :)
