Hope for Serenity II?

With the original DVDs of Serenity flying off the shelves, it only made sense to make a special collector’s edition DVD for Serenity fans dying for more. But will the extra dose of Serenity end there?

Perhaps not. In a Comic Con interview with Serenity’s writer/director Joss Whedon, Whedon gives a little glimmer of hope for a Serenity II. After being asked if there was hope of the second movie, Whedon said it really depended on the special edition DVD sales (with honesty, but also a truly great push for DVD sales) (Legel).

Age of Love: Winner Takes All

Age of Love – the experiment to discover if age mattered in love, didn’t do much more than prove how things usually work out for women in the U.S. Even if a woman in her 40s is super hot and has it all together, the younger guy is still going to pick the younger woman. This, of course is not always true, but I’m sure happens plenty often to all single women as they get older. Poor Jen just had to deal with it on TV.

Age of Love: Truth be told…

With Mark‘s luck with the women in this week’s Age of Love, I’m surprised he ended up with any women left standing! All four women left seemed to be putting in their last ditch efforts to win over Mark using extremely revealing salsa outfits, sexed-up salsa dancing, and scandalous back rubs in dark rooms with plenty of whispering. Oh yeah, and tragically unimpressive high tea skills for the 21-year-old. Nice moves from all ladies.

Age of Love: Gettin’ down and dirty

Take a dollop of jealousy, a dash of crazy, stir it up, dump it in the middle of the woods with five women, one man, a lot of alcohol, and a game of truth-or-dare and you get… the most hilariously dramatic Age of Love episode yet!

The ladies were still plenty divided between the 20s and 40s, but with such a low number of women and such a high amount of tension, the anger and jealousy all got mashed together and thrown at everyone in its path. Surprisingly though, two of the three 40s leftover were the immature ones when it came to cat-fights at the campfire of their lovely camping trip this week.

Age of Love: Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary

Mark was down to his final six women on this week’s Age of Love – three of which he’s been getting pretty serious connections with, one who keeps saying she’ll leave but then laughs it off at elimination and stays, and two he didn’t know at all. These two, Megan and Mary, finally got time with Mark on a trip to the beach for some surfing and fun in the sun.
