I hope you're right...
I hope it'll be rerun with the movie premiers..
and by the end of the Summer will be played on our TV sets!

I think they clearly played up the action movie aspects,
but I don't take that to mean that there won't be any comedy or character development
(this is JOSS we're talking about after all)
Just as there were people missing or barely seen in the trailer,
but we know they'll be in the film...
(Joss even said everyone would have their moments)

I am SOOOOO excited about this film!

Couldn't see the trailer at school. (They--the evil techs--block anything that uses up bandwidth.) So I bought tickets for Hitchhiker's for Friday morning at 12:01 for seven people. Now that I've seen the trailer at least five times, I hope, hope, hope that I'll see it in the theater. Any Fresno Browncoats planning to be there (Edwards) for the first showing?

The trailer is super shiny. It doesn't give anything away--at least I didn't think so, but then I'm not the most analytical of folk. I know I'll watch it right up until September 30. (Ya gotta realize I got the DVD's in December and probably have watched some episodes 20 times. Or maybe I just think that's a lot...?)

Are there any Fresno Browncoats? I should start a thread.

Oh my god!!!!!!!!

It is amazing, I haven't seen the film and so I can't really comment for spoilers. The trailer doesn't show anything (with one normal full-screen viewing) I didn't want to see which was:

1) Relationship stuff
2) Death or injury to our BDH
3) Damage to Serenity

The trailer does give away (at least one of) the major plot points and action scenes although I would be amazed if Browncoats hadn't worked it out already.

One final thought, if you don't want to see sets, outfits and cool effects then I would avoid this trailer like the plague. The trailer is obviously tailored to people that like action-films and this is effects heavy - some moments in the film may be spoiled because they show effects. I haven't seen the film though so I can't know for certain.

I really should get me a signature

First, thank you all for you input. It was very helpful and certainly makes this spoiler-shy fan interested in viewing the trailer.

With that said, however, I feel inclined to pass on the comments I received from another fan of whom I introduced to the series. While discussing whether or not to watch the newly released Serenity trailer, this was said:

"To this day I still regret watching the Star Wars Episode One trailers and nitpicking over details as much as I did. True it was a sweet trailer, but if I had not watched it, I might have been much more shocked to see the second blade come out of Darth Maul's lightsaber. That would have been a cool moment to experience in the theater for the first time."

While Episode I ultimately disapointed me, I had to agree with the statement about the nifty double lightsaber and I got to thinking about how much my own avid viewing of the trailer contributed to my ruining of the movie.

Thus, despite my own desires, I think I will be abstaining from the trailer, at least for the time being. Unfortunately, I missed getting a ticket to the sneak preview in Boston (it sold out in less than 7hrs, for crying out loud!), so my desperation/exasperation might increase exponentially come May 5th.

Thank you all once again.
