How the hell can any of you go watch the movie over and over and over and over again? Sure 2 times is fine. 3 Times if you really like it. Maybe even a 4th time if you go with some friends who haven't seen it yet. But all those times paced out. I can't believe any one who is going to see it 6-9 times in just 3 days! NO MOVIE IS THAT GOOD! Thats like a waste of money really. Don't you got some thing better to do rather than watch the movie over and over multiple times in one day!?! Don't you have an actual life outside of Firefly!?!

Sorry I just had to say that. I'm a huge fan like yall and want to see the movie to even do better than any Startrek movie and Starwars. I'm pretty sure I'll be seeing it atleast 2 times. Maybe a 3rd time as well (maybe if I got some extra money and nothing else to do). No matter how many times I see the movie in theatres though it surely won't be all in just a few days. If yall want to see it over and over again so badly, then why not just download a pirated copy? Surely there will be atleast one copy for download that some one will tape as they watch it in theatres. Hell maybe some one has already.

Anyways I think it's just rediculous that any one goes and see this movie 3-9 times in just a few days. Any one who does needs to get more of a life and find a better way to spend their money.


I have to disagree. Do i watch movies over and over again? yes. The GOOD ones.

3-9 times in a row? Only times i did were for Braveheart and the original StarWars.

Will i do it for Serenity? Maybe not all in a row but yes i will watch it many many times because i want it to succeed so we can all have a sequel. I am just doing my part to see it gets done and I believe i'm not the only one here who will!
FYI There is nothing wrong with my social life as i am taking different people with me to each showing and have been planning this for some time now. Saying anyone like me needs to get a life is only YOUR OPINION and a rude one at that.
P.S. It's my money and i'll decide how to spend it and what is a waste or not thank you very much!

You mean sex? oh hell with this i'm going to live!

Actually a quick check shows that there are 6 copies floating around i'm very sorry to report. I will NOT however be downloading any of them, and think that was a totally lame suggestion for you to make... one hopefully people will ignore!
Besides your missing the whole point here. I want a sequel pure and simple. I am doing what i can to get as many people in that theater as possible. I cant see how as a "fan" you could object to this and tell me i am wasting my money.
Besides the movie kicks some serious backside... and is totally worth it imho.

I agree ChristopherRobin. Downloading a copy just ruins our chances of having a sequel and who wants that?

I cannot believe we've achieved this, and I am so thrilled and happy for all of us, especially the hard working team behind the feature.

Just one word of warning though, remember the special hell for those who talk at theatres - and I add one extra to Book's list, those who harrass reviewers, whatever their opinion or merit. Play nice, browncoats.

Anyway, I'm feeling giddy - it's finally almost here! (UK) Hurrah!

Man, this some dedication.

But don't get too crazy with multiple viewings this week, we want this movie to have legs as well as a huge box office open.

Opening big, and then have a 60% drop off in grosses can hurt a movie too.

Also some of us can't see it till Saturday, and are bringing a whole mess of converts after the marathon screening/shindig they're having today (wink, wink, nudge, nudge). So leave some tickets for us!

Not that I blame any of you.

Damn, does it feel good to be flying again.

I am reading all these posts as I listen to Greg Edmonds FF soundtrack : River understands Simon to be exact- and I am little embarresed to say that I am genuienly moved to tears ( could be a little hormonal too) I am going in 5 hours to see the BDM and taking my crew with me. We HAVE done the impossible and that DOES make us mighty!

Every once in awhile I get so giddy that I giggle and flap my arms like a school girl.
We really made it. I mean they made it. But we made it too. Well, we sort of followed...but we got to the same gorram place.
I can't wait.

Hmmm, I wonder what its gonna feel to finally be on the winning side, if you take my meaning.

Well, I plan to see it at LEAST twice:once today, and again on Sunday. And then maybe the next two weekends after that.
I want my trilogy AT LEAST. (if I can't get my show back. Actually I'll take getting my show back AND my trilogy). And if I have to see the movie 6 times then that's what I'm gonna do!

I am showing great restraint in only seeing it 3 times opening day, and taking everyone I know. I bet I hit 10 times in the first three weeks though, just seeing the ship on the silver screen, is worth the 80 bucks in tickets, besides it is scene for scene better than "Star Wars 3- Anakin is still a sissy"
