    And joe, I freaking love serenity. But like the show, it is kind of a niche movie. More than it should be. Many like that didn't make the cut. (A certain christian bale flick comes to mind). And king kong gets a high seeding based on longevity and cultural impact. Jurassic park? Definitely fantasy. Unless someone is really creating dinosaurs somewhere. Which would be awesome. Clockwork, too, is definitely sci-fi. Could be drama, I suppose.
