yeah, I got all of mine from walking around the Santa Monica pier
looking like a tourist (ie buying crap from the vendors)
those guys w/the clipboards love to hit on tourists

sometimes you can get in if you know someone who works for the testing company
but not if you work for Universal

If you hear of anything, let us know. I live in LA too but don't live near West LA.

The college I attend, Cal State Long Beach, has people on campus practically every week handing out pre-screening passes! If anyone is in the Long Beach, California area and would like to be kept informed about this so maybe we can pre-screen Serenity, just let me know and I'd be happy to help!

Spike&Jezebel covered it, except for explaining that studios prescreen movies for different reasons.

Quote:

Adam Baldwin said (quoted by DietCoke), Apparently there will be some test screenings in the very near future.

Note "very near future". When a studio previews a movie this far in advance, they are looking for things that need changing. Marketing previews are done much closer to scheduled release, in the case of Serenity, probably in summer.

So, if you go to a winter preview of Serenity,
Don't let 'em know you're already a fan
Tell them what you like about the film
Tell them you'll recommend it to others
Ask them when it will be released

In particular, if a lot of folks say the same thing under "What did you like least about the film", that part could get cut.

Kick ass. I can picture the whole cast sitting around Joss's house getting loaded and watching Serenity. I am willing to travel great distances to see this movie screener.
When knowledge is eventually acquired, pretty please, ship it my way.

Does anyone know if they'll do screeners in Europe?
Like in the Netherlands??? :-)
I just saw over at the imdb that there's a Dutch company distributing the movie:

* United International Pictures (UIP) [nl] (2005) (Netherlands) (theatrical)

Does that mean they could do screeners here in the Netherlands?

thanks!

I would love to catch an advanced screening, but I fear Richmond, VA, may not be in the target for such a blessing. I say good luck to any and all who can maket it to one when/if it happens. However, for those lucky few who do see it early, please be repectful to us poor souls who must wait until September.
