Random thoughts, cause I have a short lunch today.

Loved the hints of John Woo feel of the first episode.

Loved that Spike does Jeet Kun Do and that Hakim was a not so subtle nod to Kareem Abdul Jabar.

Hate the whole "woe are the heroes for they are broke." Fuckers fly a ship that's larger than a mansion, have two smaller ships that are amazing as balls (I love Spike's fighter), and can afford an astronomical one way toll. Yeah, their debt might be deep, but I doubt they're hurting.

Non-related but semi-related. Loving my side trip into re watching both Trigun and Samurai Jack.
