My god your mature. I take it all back.
A well thought out and mature post like that really does change my view.
Look if you want to talk to adults son, I suggest you grow up.
I've met 3yr olds less likely to throw a tanturm than yourself.
I mean JEEZ!
Q: What do you have when you are holding two little green balls in your hand.
A: Kermit's undivided attention.

Um, to quote yourself:
"And you call yourself a Browncoat? Jesus."
I was going to apologise to you...I didn't mean to upset you, like some other posters have pointed out... I was just quoting Jayne from "War Stories". I thought it would be kinda funny and appropriate cos, you know, you used the word "if" a lot in your original post.
Look I really didnt mean to offend you.
And how dare you call Citizen a cnut! Sod off!
P.S.
That was me meaning to offend you.

Instead of 'spamming' other forums with off-topic posts about Firefly/Serenity (which is a good way to get people so pissed they will boycott the movie), I recommend something subtle and a bit mysterious (a la the virual marketing clips from Joss and Summer).
I've changed my sig in my e-mail and all non-Firefly related forums to simply:
"Serenity is coming. 9-30-05"
Gets lots of people curious, and after they ask of course I can tell them all about the BDM. 
Jayne, your mouth is talkin. Might want to look into that.

Actually, the last line was sarcasm. Which just proves my point that you are not the man for this type of job.

PR, I'm upset that this person jumped all over you considering that you were one of the only people who supported his idea. Don't take it personally. WE all thought your joke was funny.

Quote:Well actually, it was just another example of the fact that I cant help quoting Firefly in virtually every post I make. Guess that one was just a bit too obtuse. However, anyone who has been complimented by SG does deserve some adulation.

I like your excitement and devotion for the movie, and I know your intentions are as noble as any of us... but...

In my experience, people don't react well to spam, regardless of what it's selling. By all means, spread the gospel of Joss to the forums you already post at, but dumping ads onto every last site on the web isn't likely to earn us converts or a good name.
I'm with Blinker on this one. I'm all for spreading the word, I dropped a line on the old altnet MST3K forum, but "spamming" is ALWAYS bad. Bring people in by showing them that it's the best movie of the year, not by how obsessive the fans are. The cult fanbase is wonderful for us, but it's not going to sell anyone, at least not the people we really want (the true movie lovers and critics, no reason our movie shouldn't rank right up there with the true greats like Amelie and Silence of the Lambs). I want our movie beloved and respected, not clumped in with the rest of the blockbusters this year (I mean come on, The Island??). I'd rather get the minimum $80 million than get dumped in the same bargain bin pile as Battlefeild Earth. I think $80 million is pretty likely, so let's focus on telling people how good the movie is, not finding ways to stuff it in the populus's faces.

I smell Troll.
In fact, I smell a specific Troll in particular, but thankfully, Haken has beaten me to the punch and taken appropriate measure.
In the words of Jayne Cobb...
"Saw that comin"
