You think she <i?'left'< i=""> Piz?

Then 'emotional trauma' justifies anything at all. If leaving someone the choice of either breaking up with you or accepting complete humiliation means after you force the former a few hours later it's just peachy to fuck someone else, then it's a mighty amoral world you live in.

Well, we'll have to see, then, if your empathy increases when you discover your gf more and more emotionally involved with her ex to the point of blowing off a key part of your relationship. I'm sure you won't feel any visceral pain or that you've been betrayed, when within a few hours of her making the relationship…

Did you even bother to read the OP, or did you just feeling like having a fucking opinion to fling?

Now you're just being obnoxious. When challenged I reasonably expanded on my original comment, which it's hard to believe you actually read.

you can argue, pretty well, that she violated the spirit of their relationship,…

Did I miss something, or did the writers take an especially daring turn this season by making the main character an especially amoral pig?

I don't know how you managed to deadpan that one, but tip of the hat for handling the 'comment' well.

"It feels gross to say it, but I remember being really glad that it turned out Veronica had actually been raped. "

Really? I did not know that about Serenity. And I own the DVD (so I assume it's in the commentary). How did I not know that, then?

Do you write? From a couple of your comments you seem to have an ear for it.

Having mulled it over, I think what I really missed from this film
(which I enjoyed overall) was a sense of Veronica as an adult,

Yes indeed.

She didn't cheat on Piz or betray him.

Not to rain on the closing parade, but did anyone ever really believe that TNG was ever other than a teen show? So many of the episodes read as though they were written for bright fourteen year olds. Not that we needed more of a giveaway than a character such as Wesley Crusher, but where's the TNG episode emphasizing…

The mannerisms and occasionally ludicrous plot point turned what could have been a great show into a merely good one, and one that is occasionally absurdly irritating.

Am I the only one left with a sour taste by V's scummy treatment of Piz? (Quite unlike her character from the series to cheat, iirc.) No idea why Thomas and Ruggiero had her in what appeared to be a committed relationship which she then violated. Why not put her instead at some kind of emotional crossroads, but…

After more reflection, still no.

"and used really bizarre interior lighting and camera angles at times"

That said, I can't really see a non-fan enjoying it.
