(PS: Hi Chris, sorry for stealing this)

Regarding tickets for Can't Stop The Signal, Chris says:

"

The situation is truly "fluid" because of the amazing response to the screenings. I can't promise anything, but you should stay tuned to the boards (including the Universal board) for news. Browncoatless people are starting to find out what an entertaining film SERENITY turned out to be (not that it's even finished yet!) and are spreading the word. It's really exciting for all of us involved in the film.

Best,

Regaring high eBay ticket prices;

"
Will do on the ebay stuff.

I'm always amazed that someone would pay a crazy amount for a ticket to anything... until the Red Sox got into the playoffs against the Angels (face reddens). But seriously, Browncoats should stay tuned to the boards for more news. Universal was overwhelmed by the amazing response and are huddled trying to figure out how to respond.

Keep flyin'

It's an exciting time for the movie.

Even if nothing happens and we're being fed fan friendly platitudes, it's still exciting to see that the screening has struck a chord w/ the folks at 'versal.

Pretty exciting, none the less.

We've put them in shock! So much that we made them incapable of making decisions.

I like the comment about non-fans spreading the word. I'd call them Browncoats though because that is what they have are now. They're one of us.

Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.

There's been plenty said on another thread 'bout the execs at 'Versal being just buisnessmen, and I'm sure that's also true, but what about the real enthusiasm that must be flowing through them? I mean they are promoting a film every gorram last one of 'em must love, not an altogether unenjoyable situation, right?
Win, win, far as I can see.

Always liked Universal Chrisisall

Well.. there's good businessmen ('Versal) and bad businessmen (F*X). The good ones know when they've got a great franchise. The bad ones obviously don't... and Firefly isn't the only example of F*X's stupidity. If you watched Family Guy the other night, they read off a long littany of F*X's stupidity in cancelling great shows.

Apathy on the Rise. No One Cares.

Well, to paraphrase Mal; Oh no, they're not going to see this coming.

The more I get to know people the more I like my dogs.

Hmmm, there's sooo many ways you could make the quick buck off us happy fans, folks..

Better action figures (the only available ones right now are kinda lackin...)

Plastic models of Serenity!!
C'mon, plastic ships are like, a must-have for sci-fi stuff... we'd pay well for em.

And for the high-end big spenders... (or those willing to beg and borrow that much).

"Official" Brown coats, for the browncoat legions!

You want fat stacks of cash, we want toys and merch... and we're both happier than kaylee in the produce section - ya just can't lose, ehe ?

There are other threads here updating this project, but here you go. Maybe not official, but it sure sounds authentic. I can't afford one, but I'll bet they won't be able to keep up with demand.
