Courtesy of Skyscraper, who pointed out to me that "Serenity" is currently ranked No. 7 on Yahoo Movie's Top Rated Movie of All Time list.

That's not all, it's currently the No. 1 Top Rated Movie in Theaters.

See for yourself:

Wow. That sort of rules. Although what would be shiny beyond shiny is if Serenity made a good showing at the Oscars.

YAY!!! I was reading some of the yahoo member reviews and there was one guy who said he had never seen Firefly but loved the movie so much that he went out and bought the series immediately and says that he'll be seeing it in theaters 2 or 3 more times.
That is exactly the response I know I was hoping non-fans would have. Looks to be a good run to me.

I cast my vote. In fact I voted early and often on other movies. Just doing my civic mayor Daley sort of duty.

I'm thinking the steady build-up is a very real possibility. I know that a friend of mine that I haven't seen in a few years bought the dvd set recently so he could get familiar with the series before going to see it (probably this weekend). And that was with convincing from a not so hardcore mutual friend (who also hasn't seen the movie yet). I'm hoping to head out to see it again with them and probably other friends that have a good chance of becoming true-believers.

I heard a local female movie critic open her Friday radio program with, "there's a movie out there that I had heard very little of, but I believe it's going to to do very well, it's call Serenity. The plot is well thought out, it's funny, it's sad and well acted. Most of the people [actors], you have probably never heard of, but after this weekend, you will." That's as close to verbatim as I can get and it was music to my ears.

It's been slowly moving up on IMDb's list of top 250 movies of all time, starting out on Sunday at #149. Now it's at #118, just behind Once Upon a Time in America and just ahead of The Big Sleep; just two spots behind Batman Begins, and six spots ahead of Star Wars VI - Return of the Jedi.

The IMDb user rating also went up from 8.4 on Friday to 8.7 on Sunday (now it's at 8.6). I'd like to think that came from general movie goers discovering the movie and being impressed with it (which I expect they will be), but it was more likely from all the fans like me who couldn't get to a pre-screening finally getting to see it.

Wow. I kept thinking that wasn't possible, that more movies would have gotten A's. But I looked up a few of the ones I swore were universally loved and they got mostly B+s! That was the score for Batman Begins and Finding Nemo. Cool .

It's dropped to #9... So if you haven't voted, go do it.
