I think it was because they had to have a "hook" to hang the movie on. It has no stars and the TV show was a blip on the radar so why not tie it to Joss. The mainstream knows about Buffy and Angel even if they don't have every episode on DVD. The mainstream doesn't know about Firefly or Nathan or Summer or Adam or Jewel... yet.

I've decided not to do a spoiler free version of the trailer because, IMHO, there were no spoilers. In fact, the one-liners in the trailer were far from the best in the movie (which is a good thing, save them for the movie) and there was no hint of the basic plot either. Excellent.

Also, it was a bit cheeky of Fotokem to put a subliminal ad in for themselves at the end.

Was is just me or were they going up against the Alliance with the help of Reavers?

The preview was so amazing it shocked me out of lurker status...

OH MY GOD! River is BAD ASS! I love it! I think you can really see the increased budget in the trailer.. It looks tres pretty. And I do say I'm liking the music, it works well. Now I'm looking forward to seeing it on Friday and listening to the crowd afterwards.. I'm hoping to hear some Ooh's and Ah's and Oh that looks good's. ::spasm with delight::

My other ship is a Mid-Bulk Transport Standard Radion Accelerator Core Class Code 03-K64 Firefly.

To shiny for words.

I have to say I didn't really consider the trailer very spoilery at all. Sure it hints at the story and such but it doesn't give anything away.

I cried. I knew I was gonna. I tried not to. But I did so anyway.

How many times am I allowed to watch it???

PS to Nedward,

My cow-orkers are going to hear me say "Let's go be bad guys." The may wonder at the Vera strapped to my chest, though....perhaps I should rethink that.

Rampant speculation (I haven't seen the full movie yet, so those lucky enough to be in the test audiences can just giggle behind my back)...

I was looking through the trailer frame-by-frame (geek!) and...

Select to view spoiler:


... it does indeed look like they're bringing the Reavers to the party. About two thirds of the way through, in the shot just after "This Fall" there is a familiar Reaver ship in the lower left hand corner!
