Ugh. I *know*. I can't stand Rove. I put up with him last year to see the James Marsters interview and that was bad enough.

I have to work tomorrow night, so I'm going to tape it, which means i can at least fast forward the weasely little prick.

Hey there, this is my first time to respond, so wanted to say hi first.

Well, I do like the poster, but agree with what you are all saying about relevance, but seriously, I have yet to see a poster that does anything other than look pretty. I haven't seen the US one, could someone point me in the right direction so I can compare?

Also, I noticed today that cable here in Oz is picking up "Firefly" and had a kickass ad for the show which made even me wanna watch it when it comes on, and I, of course, already OWN the dvds!!! So with any luck it'll drag some more Aussies in for an educational before the movie!!!

cheers.

I haven't seen the US one either ... wouldn't mind a look.

As for relevance, some posters do work for the general mood, etc. Take the new Harry Potter poster for example ... dark times ahead, Harry. I love that poster - it is absolutely perfect for the kind of movie I am expecting.

But you're right ... on the whole, they are fairly inconsequential.

Great ad, isn't it?

The only prob with that is that only Serenity (the pilot) will be broadcast before the movie is released.

In all likelihood, Serenity (the movie) will be long gone from cinemas by the time FOX8 airs "Objects in Space"

Oh well. It's still good though - about a hundred bazillion times better than nothing!

Thanks for the welcome!

I found the US poster (and it even allows you to vote on which you think is better). So if you still haven't seen it, try http://www.destinything.com/index.html
I still think that the international one is better, but just because River is SO cool!!

Thanks for the great welcome! But mostly, thanks for the great site! I see the international poster is winning in the polls. And being the nerd that I am, I even sent a question in for Joss! I recommend your site to all!

I've seen the screening.
Love the movie.
Dislike the poster.

I see no reason that any opinion on this poster would have anything to do with their opinion on the movie. The poster is far from anything related to the movie IMO.

Philby was right - according to the poll on my site, International Poster has 56% of the vote.

Darn...!
