Want a Serenity sequel? Proactively do the following before the weekend is over.
Step 1: Along with yourself, treat two of your friends to 'Serenity' this weekend.
Step 2: If either of your friends like it, have them go again and treat two of their friends under the same conditions.
Step 3: Repeat process before weekend is over.
Make Serenity #1 opening weekend and the media will PR the thing like crazy come Monday.
Sure, it might cost some of us $30, but think of it as an investment towards the sequel.
Go and spread the word.

$30 would get two people in to see 'serenity' once here in tassie (aus) and that DONT INCLUDE MUNCHIES!!!
but still it would be $30 of the best dollars i could EVER spend!

Already there!
I'm dragging my sister and her husband (two stout anti-Joss people if ever there were any) to Serenity on Thursday night.
Not sure if the movie will change her mind, it's likely (because it's awesome), but she's just as stubborn as I am. My brother in law, however, I'm certain will love the film.
And if he loves it, others will listen to him. Yup. My fiance's friends will definitely be convinced to go and they love just about anything (hell, we're talking about people who saw The Forsaken at the movies, fercryin' out loud).
And, also, my friends and I are going again on the Sunday.
I might even drag my mother on the Saturday (she *loved* the advance screening and is champing at the bit to see it again).
That's a good four viewings for me, with multiple, multiple people with me. Yay!
edit: not sure how much the Australian takings are going to affect the official weekend opening figures, but I'm sure it couldn't hurt. The fact that every screening was sold out within hours, and mostly minutes, of being released is something for the big bosses to take note of. Even Thursday's opening sessions have already sold out. It's phenomenal.

Sounds good. I know me and my mom plan to see it the opening weekend and then Im gonna try to take my uncle to see it. Ill have more luck the second weekend, when I take my friend, her sister, and their parents to see it.
We need the most money in the first two-three weekends. Seeing this movie mutliple times is not money wasted!

Brilliant!
Only one problem... most of my friends are already browncoats. I actually never found this out until one DnD game when the DM decides to name a particular sword "Vera". I look up and realize I'm surrounded by independents.
Well, no use preaching to the choir. We'll be watching it together, most likely, but now we gotta find new recruits for the second and third viewings. KF

Kizyr,
"You know that you are surrounded by Browncoats when..." A sword named Vera. LOL 
We're hauling some friends to Serenity, too. Or maybe they're hauling us, since we lent them our Firefly DVD.

Yeah, I'll be going with nine friends, and we'll all be wearing orange Jayne hats, so we can frighten mallgoers and movie theatre employees alike. It's gonna be great!
Vive la Serenity!!!
Now, if only it was Big Damn Weekend now . . .

I made a new friend this year who I found out later was as big a browncoat as me. I've also managed to convert four others from the DVDs. I'm not sure how many my friend has brought into the fold, but with them and their significant others, we will have at least eight for Friday night and more for Saturday.

Hey Haken, on a totally different note - how about putting a favicon in the root? :)
