    And I mean how’d they even do that? The interior of this thing is made out of the same kind of metal they’d make space prisons out of, like in the first Guardians of the Galaxy. How’d they make a ship out of prison material look cozy and homely?

      I think it goes back to that economy of space (as in “usable room”, not “outer space”). I remember the first time I saw the scene where Mal uses the toilet/sink in his bedroom and you see how they fold out of the wall. It really gave Serenity that “RV” feel.

      The scene where they celebrate Simon’s birthday using a “cake” made of protein bars molded into the shape of a cake is another example. It’s all about the human spirit forcing a place to be “home”.
