Gave me chills......, freakin awesome. 
Best line in the trailer: "Define interesting? Oh god, oh god, we're all gonna die." Wash is so cool.
I can't wait till Septmeber. Joss, please give us a second trailer and multiple TV spots to tide us over, please.....
...like a trained ape, without the training

*ahem*
I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE I LOVE IT I LOVE IT !!!!!
Oh yea....Kaylee IS in the trailer...just pay attention to the part right after he says "All of you got on this boat for different reasons"
She's standing on the bridge right next to Inara, kinda behind Wash.
And to echo Her Liciousness.....It brought tears to my eye it did...and my thought was "Finally! After four years, MORE STUFF TO SEE!!!!!!!"
Already watched it at least ten times, think I'll watch it again, I'll check in if I see Book..scouts eyes and all that LOL

I started hyperventilating!
Does anybody have the trailer saved on their computer that they could possibly upload for me to watch here on this computer? It won't work for me on the website and i really want to show a friend!

SAFFRON: You can't just leave me here, on this
lifeless piece of crap moon...
MAL: Sure I can.
SAFFRON: I'll die.
MAL: Well, as a courtesy, you might start
getting busy on that, cause all this chatter ain't doin' me any kindness.

I noticed that too. =]
perhaps they pull another Ariel and sneak in? Possibly a flashback though.... maybe those are fancy future doctor duds.

To those of you who object to the mention of BTVS in the fear that would put people off, how about this:
"From the creative genius behind Alien: Resurrection...." 
Help...am making screencaps, already up to 27 and only just reached the "From the mind of Joss Whedon" bit!

I think that if I wasn't familiar with the show, that this would seem at least as interesting as any other sci-fi movie. We get a glimpse of the plot - rebels running from a government that's willing to murder children to reclaim this girl. Seems to be some humor thrown in. From a mass-marketing standpoint, I don't see how they could have made the trailer better.
Other than through more praise and testimony from trustworthy sources, I don't think they're going to be able to pre-sell this movie to people that aren't into sci-fi. That's the most obvious genre, and that's how they've steered the trailer. As has been said before, if they tried to throw in the other aspects of it, people wouldn't buy into it, just like they didn't with the series.
Only thing that's going to get non-sci-fi fans in there is word-of-mouth. We need to kidnap Roger Ebert and force-feed him the DVDs.

I ran into an unitiated non fan yesterday...showed him the trailer, and he was intrigued, but, he said if there's a movie coming out, then there's no reason for him to shill out the money for the series. Damn depressing, I thought. I hope this isn't a sentiment that catches on...
At this point, I'd be happy with him just seeing the movie. For one thing, those are the numbers that will determine whether our vers will continue or not. For another thing, if he sees the movie he will hopefully be motivated to see the series.
By the way, if he's a trustworthy friend, then there wouldn't be a need for him to shill out anything, would there? Otherwise, he could look into the public library.
I mock you with my monkey pants.

That is too cool for words! So allow me to add my thoughts in mime...
I see a lot of anxious people, but personally I am very relieved to see the trailer as it is. I get a good vibe off the writing and the acting (what little we see). True, the filming style is different (and it was that which drew me to Firefly at first). True, the story seems epic. I'm not going to worry about what might be missing because of a 2 minute trailer, though.
I suppose one thing that me mind keeps conjuring is...
Select to view spoiler:
how much the trailer could be seen to parallel bits of the original series.

I hosted a mirror of the trailer (higher quality) on WhoIsRiver.com - it got 129gb worth of downloads in the first hour.
