i give it to river (i like fire fly 😄 )
River Tam is below peak human with low level psychic abilities (that she doesn't really control) and fight enhancements (which are NOT comparable to Midnighter's.... before anyone mentions it)
Buffy is superhuman in every physical regard, is trained in the use of all bladed, blunt and projectile weaponry and has been fighting for her life since she was 15 years old
River is good but she's totally outmatched against an experienced Slayer

True, but you forget that Buffy is a really shitty show, whereas Firefly and Serenity were entertaining. Therefore, River takes this without a problem.

They're both under Dark Horse, so they're good. And Joss Whedon writes them both, how can you deny that? 🙄

River takes this. She is a bloody killing machine who has much better fighting techs than buffy.Firefly is one of the best shows i ve ever seen.
Serenity was also great. Pitty that there is no second season.
May be a second movie? who knows.....
There aren't going to be any more films (according to Whedon) the film didin't take in enough money to justify sequals.... i think the only future for the crew of Serenity will be in comic or novel format
........... And Buffy would kick River's arse all over the place

Hey, Pict.... good to see another Edinburgh based poster on these boards
You guys don't know what the hell you're talking about man. River has PRECOG. And she never even got hit in Serenity. Not even once! She slaughtered more people than Buffy did in her entire sixth season. AND UNLIKE Buffy, she can use guns! Guns + Fast As Buffy + Precog + Non-Getting-Ass-Kicked-Consistency.
