Any inconsistancies (not that I've noticed any) would be more likely based on an error by the movie designers/translators, as we saw with the Blue Sun logo. The crew of the ship Serenity try to evade an assassin sent to recapture telepath River. Now in clasic printed Chinese the charecters are read top to bottom and then left to right however in places where english is the dominant language it is not uncommon for the charecters to read left to right and then top to bottom - particularly in signs. On Serenity herself the characters are side by side. So, I would not expect the characters from the logo to need to be translated, especially since there is no need for grammatical context. With Nathan Fillion, Gina Torres, Alan Tudyk, Morena Baccarin. All of the Serenity tie ins that I have seen have the characters in the logo stacked. In fact, even Japanese uses Chinese characters (Kanji) for nouns, adjectives, adverbs, and verbs. As for the Chinese characters, my understanding is that different dialects have some of their own characters, but they share the main (historic) ones. There is an image of the ship-logo within the interview, if anyone is still looking. It commences roughly 39 weeks after the Serenity crew managed to give the big bad guys of the Alliance a sizeable butt-kicking, with a very pregnant Zoe (widow of lovably eccentric pilot Wash). CABridges posted an interview with him on : -graphic-designer-for-serenity/ The interview doesn't say anything about the differences between the promotional logo and the actual logo on the ship. The logo from the movie was designed for the movie by Serenity's graphic designer, Geoffrey Mandel (with "lots of input" from Joss).

As to the series I'm trying to remember if we ever got a look at the logo. David "A lot of people are asking me, you know, what exactly is Firefly? It's a tv show you morons!" - Joss Whedon Guess I'll have to watch it all again and pay more carefull attention. 'I'm basically serving two masters' he said in an IGN interview in 2003. So both are correct for differing values of correct. Of course, Whedon also wrote 'Serenity,' describing the process as an usually challenging endeavor. ![]() Now in clasic printed Chinese the charecters are read top to bottom and then left to right however in places where english is the dominant language it is not uncommon for the charecters to read left to right and then top to bottom - particularly in signs and the like. But I was wondering if anyone else had noticed that as well.Īll of the Serenity tie ins that I have seen have the characters in the logo stacked.
