Your concerns are legit. So, who's up for smacking some 'versal execs?
Moving on, deactivization word for River? Is it in Latin, or any specific language? Or is it a code of sorts?
Sincerly can't wait till the Big Damn Movie's released.

Good Morning,
When i saw the movie it was so cool seeing the BDH on screen and simply seeing more Firefly. It's hard to believe, but I have seen the regular shows so many times I dont really watch them anymore. So seeing something I havent seen before was so cool. Joss was in the audience with us, as well as a whole group of execs in a taped off section of the theatre. Will there be any major things that will dissapoint you? Yes there will. Will you just love other parts?...yes you will. Overall it is a great ride and will makie money for the studio. Will it make enough to justify another movie...i think so.
I was absolutely pissed when the back story for Book wasnt explained before he died. I didnt think Ron Glass did that great of a job acting the scene, but that is a different discussion. When Wash died, fans just about stormed Joss. It happened so fast and being as Wash is one of my favorite characters, I'm dissapointed he is gone.
I dont like movies where things will happen and you say to yourself, oh come on that can't happen. There are a handful of those here. I didnt love that. Actually i was so worried about those "Oh come on" scenes that I made sure I was asked to stay after the movie to be one of 20 people who were recorded and shared how they felt about the movie. I wanted to voice them then so that maybe they can be changed before the movie is released. So during the discussion i was pretty vocal. To quote myself(can you do that?) I said regarding the relative realism of a movie "if Mal gets a three foot sword shoved all the way through his stomach, he dies!!" well he didnt and still fought for another five minutes and beats the Operative.
There is a scene when Serenity chrashes and one arm is completly torn off (then Wash dies)and later in the movie Serenity takes and heads on her merry way? HUH??? I had to bring that up to them. Those are the kinds of things. At the end of the discussion i turned to all the executives (I was in the first row and they were in the back right hand corner) and said "Hey guys we need more Firefly, just change a few things and this movie can be great" It was odd how silent the place was...lol
But if they dont change anything, you will still love tons about this. Very funny, River simply kicks ass, you will love when Simon breaks River out of the Alliance facility, The Operative, the Reaver story.
But you wont like Wash and Book dying, the "oh come on" scenes if they stay, Simon punching Mal in the face and he taking it, Jayne yelling at Mal "Look at me when I talking to you" and him not shoving him out an airlock. The out of character heros were familiar with. Yeah that suprised me too. And how somehow those things add up to it not feeling like our little show.
But am I worried about how the movie being pushed back might affect the over-all sales, not really. Other than us Browncoats, who really even knows this movie is being made? Until the first teaser is released than the casual movie-goer will know of its existence. I know why it is called Serenity, but I think another name would be better for the non-Firefly fans. But it wont be changed.
oh, and the key word spoken to River to stop her from stomping Mal's ass (unless he shot her, and he would have) was in Chinese. Couldnt understand it. Man that was a cool scene.
OK any other questions let me know.

-Are there some cool one-liners or quotes in the movie? And if so, do you remember some? and who said them?
- In the trailer from Comiccon we see River with some kind of device on her head screaming, what's up with that?
thanks again

Huh.
Ok. This is not just our old show anymore. It seems like a greater story though, I have to say. Just as long as Joss suspends my disbelief which I know he will do, I am going to love the movie. Gorram. I haven't seen the movie yet, and already I'm struck silent by awe. meltingMan, you give good descriptions.
Latin? What was I thinking? 
Shiny Chinese, that's good.
Sincerly can't wait till the Big Damn Movie's released.

Cool one-liners...sorry there are a ton and for the life of me i cant remember any of them...Sorry. Oh one other thing, the Joss speak for Firefly was cut way down...western theme was almost gone and didnt hear much Chinese.

In your viewing of the screener was there any music in place & did it fit the movie
And before anybody says anything - Yes, I know that the proper music for the film has yet to be done 
Zol.
sorry for the multiple replies, something scwewy went on there!

The shiny thing on her head is from when she is being held at the Allaince facility and they were doing some experiments on her in front of upper-management (Simon during break-out scene), because she is "one of our top students"
