Only one problem... most of my friends are already browncoats.

Family. Acquaintances. Co-workers. Strangers you meet on the street. I'm not kidding!

On the OB, people are starting a "you're coming with us" campaign:

1.1

Basically, buy some extra tickets every time you go, and offer them for free to others in line (especially those who seem like they haven't decided what to see -- doesn't help if it's someone who already planned to buy tickets to Serenity)

Serenity is coming. 9/30/05.

SHINY idea Haken! I'm planning on asking a friend of mine (who is a - horror of horrors - a HUGE Star Wars fan) opening night, and if he likes Serenity, I mean loves it, then maybe he'll take his friends to see it. Then maybe I can con my Dad into going with me on Saturday.

Of course, my friend just might go with me if I offer to pay his way...which I was going to do anyway. Then of course if I remind my supervisor at work that it comes out Friday, she might either go with me Fri. night or Sat.

By the way does anyone who lives in Delaware know where it will be playing??

Yahar!
Me and me gang O' pirates will be seein it in the theaters if weather permits! I am glad you brought this to the attention of everyone to convert others to our cause (hehe). May it go down in history as the largest browncoat conversion ever!

Let no overpriced theater slushy be undrunken!

Seeing it all weekend with a number of people- fan and non-fan alike. Yeah, I'm one of those nuts who'll see a film 4+ times in a day if I'm game... took the day off from work. It'll be fun.

While I would love to go, I need to find a gorram THEATER running the BDM in my area...and I am having no luck. Does anyone know where the closest theater to Sierra Vista, AZ (actually, Ft. Huachuca) is that is running Serenity on opening weekend?
If I can find one, I can the considerable percentage of my barracks that I have gotten hooked on Firefly to add to the figures...and probably a good number of the rest to whom I have just preached the virtues of the show...and the evils of Fox. Judging by the response of my fellow MI troops, if I could just find a showing within a decent travel radius (preferably in Sierra Vista), then I could convince them ALL to go...and to bring their friends.
So...does anyone know where Serenity is running in Arizona? If you do, please post back, and, better yet, e-mail arprest@aol.com or aeriongrey@yahoo.com. I REALLY want to see this premiere (I have yet to see any other new movies the last six months, I have been that busy converting my fellow members of the US Army to the joys of being a Browncoat, and really want to get all of these Army Browncoats (and myself and about seven friends) to the premiere.

If you are a die hard fan then tune in this Sunday @ 7 eastern to listen to Fanboy radio where we will be having a big Serenity show.

www.fanboyradio.com

It's normally a comic radio show but the whole Fanboy team loved Firefly. We want loads of calls from anyone that’s a Browncoat or has anything what so ever to do with the movie/tv show. People listen in from all over the country, so check out the site www.fanboyradio.com leave messages on the boards, call in during the show. Can't stop the signal!

I'm really cautiously optimistic:
I've turned dozens of people onto the show,
they are all planning on seeing the movie
(even though they've never been to any sites online)
and I've talked to others who never heard of the TV show,
but are very excited about the TV ads they've seen,
so THEY are planning to go the first weekend.

I think we're going to do well

Our family's soon-to-be seriously depleted pocketbooks plan on taking 4 newbies on Friday night and six others on Sunday. We will also be going a second time on Sunday to make up for not going on Saturday. If you can only get a few friends to go, make up for it by going extra yourself. Every ticket sold makes a statement that Browncoats stick together and Serenity rocks!

Keep flying everybody! Let's do this opening weekend up right!

$30 would get two people in to see 'serenity' once here in tassie (aus) and that DONT INCLUDE MUNCHIES!!!

Just do like Nathan said and smuggle in your own munchies so you can save your snack money to see "Serenity" again.
