Pointless threats that offer no solution, but provoke more problems? Who does that remind me of?

And of course buying lots of candy and popcorn is always a way to 'thank the theater'
LOL



The popcorn idea is also nice. Making sure to spend lots of money (nowadays that's at least $20US on top of the movie) at the theater as thanks for screening the movie

i dont know, but the "managerS" in "The Uni brass just gave me word that certain theater managers who couldn't provide tickets were" makes it sound like it happened in more than one place. also dont know if a single such incident would cause one or more managers to actually complain about it.

more details about what happened would be nice, so we would know how many gift baskets we need ,-)

I cannot believe the behavior that's been going on. It's sickening! And to hear that wonderful Nathan posted and was prompted called a c&nt is ridiculous. It all leads me to believe that these can't have been REAL Browncoats. If it was, then that's just darn right unsettling.

in that specific case it was someone in serious need of professional help, which i mean absolutely seriously. he already explained himself and i didnt know if i should be sad or angry, that some people need attention so much that they do everything just to be talked about. if he doesnt either get help or get the crap beaten out of him he's probably the kind of disturbed sicko that would kill someone just to make the news. so maybe we should be grateful he's just in the "act like a complete moron and piss people off to be noticed"-phase.

Theatre owners and staff are totally impotent when it comes to this sort of thing so in threatening them these coats have shown themselves to be quite foolish.

However..

I believe the blame for all this rests with Fox. I / we have all suffered at their hands. The entire mismanagement and cancellation of our beloved Firefly has left me with permanent scars. If I was put in the same room as the people most directly responsible for Firefly being cancelled "I would aim to misbehave!" to say the least.
All the effort we put in trying to get Firefly revived then to get a movie made, and then to have the said movie delayed 6 months.. it is hard to take. I can understand peoples emotions getting the better of them. I say direct your anger at Fox instead.. As I live and breathe Fox will never... NEVER get another cent from me!!

EVER !!!!

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that there is some heavily-laden irony that doesn't come across in the post, but its a TV show/movie, not justification for civil action and the testing of that outdated amendment.

Now this suggests that worringly JW is an Arsenal fan - I may have reconsider redirecting my fan-dollars if this is the case.

Erm, I really hope this was an attempt at humour.

Okay, so whilst we're all on agreement that threatening people over Firefly/Serenity is a *VERY BAD THING*...

Did you buy the Firefly DVD? Money to Fox.

Get some perspective, please. Yes, people at Fox cancelled our TV show. It happens. Making threats against those _people_? Not good.
