  - I think that sums it up

I'm really, really looking forward to this, and the trading cards!

[thor]

I love the previews   I am so excited I can't wait to see this movie, I just hope our theatre gets it  

The trading cards are also something I am looking forward to  

I would love a Simon and River auto card   (They were my favorite characters in the series).

Ooooh looks good! I'll put that one on my "To watch list"

[thor]

NO!!!  I hope it isn't true   

I was on another forum I am a member of and someone got to see a sneak peek of the movie and they reported that one of the main characters dies.....I hope it's a rumor and not true   :'(

 My only hope is Joss Wheden mentioned in certain interviews that nobody dies because they want to make more movies if this one succeeds 

I hate it when they kill people off on shows I like, Stargate is a prime example of stupidity like this  

PLEASE JOSS WHEDON...SAY IT AIN"T SO!!!!! :'( :'( :'(

Can you give me a clue who dies without spoiling it for others?

Just sent a PM to you 

[Sharon]

Thank you.  Now we know what everyone else doesn't.  Knowledge is power and power is good

I always liked forewarned is forearmed   

I need spoilers so I don't get all emotional and embarrass myself in front of a bunch of people in the theatre

I am so  at my theater, they still didn't get Serenity in. This is the one disadvantage to living in a small town 

What did the people here think of the movie when you saw it at the theater? Is it better on the big screen, or do you think that it won't matter if a person saw it for the first time on DVD? I am asking because some movies are better seen on the big screen first (example: "The Two Towers" scene with Legolas and the big elephant looking creature was much better on a theater screen then on the DVD IMO) 

I have the paperback book that I promised myself I wouldn't read until I gave my theater enough time to get the movie in, but I just wanted to hear people's thoughts in case I never get the chance to see it on the big screen.

Theater,  no doubt about it.

I thought the movie was spectacular.  Hopefully your theater will get it in.  I know I was surprised when our small-town theater had it the first week of release.

I hope my theater gets it to, but I guess only time will tell  They didn't get "Corpse Bride" in yet either and that's one I thought for sure they wouldn't pass up on for it's first week of release, and if they pass up on that movie "Serenity" doesn't stand a chance.  I can see the paperback novelization looming ever closer 

Hopefully sometime in the next two weeks they will get it in

I'm really disappointed that this didn't do better at the box office...it was really a spectacular film in every respect :'(

[m.o.b.]

I saw the film on Saturday at my local cinema (Bristol UK) and it was pretty full, but I would not expect it to do great things at the box office as its to much of a "cult" thing. Most films these days make more money on the DVD release than at the cinema box office.

It was a top quality film and a brilliant translation from the small screen. My mate, who had not watched Firefly, also thought it was great and was able to work out what was happening despite his "dis-advantage".

[Sharon]

Still not seen it  :'(.  Graham was barking like a goodun but hopefully this weekend........  But I was bad and looked at the cards so have a pretty good idea what the film is about.  I do hope the takings pick up so they make at least another couple.
