One, though, was saying after the show how amusing he found it that the big tough guy was named "Jan".

Hee hee



Hehe! Now thats funny.

I didn't really pay attention to what people were saying around me on the first night..I was too busy not blinking and hanging onto every line. I remember walking out and hearing a couple women talking about going home to rewatch the DVDs.

When I go tomorrow, I'll be sure to listen this time. I'm sure I'll have a story or two.



Mal: Define interesting.
Wash: Oh god, oh god, we're all gonna die?

I think what the other moviegoer says in TMurries spoiler is precisely why there are so very many upset and angry fans out there.

That reminded me: you know those annoying little "manners minders" flashed on the screen before a film (at least here in the States where apparently we need them)? When the one about turning of your cell phone came on someone yelled out "Or you'll go to the special hell!" Much laughter ensued, but as soon as the first instant of the movie started, you could almost hear this huge intake of breath being taken... and then absolute silence... until we ran out of air. I was a bit too focused to notice any comments around me, but I remember hearing "...nothing between my nethers..." as we left the cinema!

I was at the 1:05pm showing at the Cinemark Movies 10 in Newport. When I heard him ask for "One for Serenity" I asked if he was a Firefly fan. He said, "Yup. You?" I said, "Yup." Then we sat in the theater about 10 seats apart and chatted a bit and that's when the questions started.


Mal-licious

I'm going to add cursing and the hurling about of things to my repertoire.

Right after Wash made the amazing Serenity-smashing landing at the end, I yelled at him, "scootch over!"

He didn't listen though. damn.

Well, okay, the Browncoat screenings were the best. At my first one, shouted "I HATE YOU JOSS WHEDON!" when I thought we would lose Simon, too, and at my 2nd, well...when Kaylee says "Tell that to Inara.", my friend said
"Diss!" I said...
"Burn!" and then the WHOLE audience goes...
"OOOOOoooohhhh!" It was priceless. Then when Wash had to do the slide landing, the man in front of me yelled "SHIT!" It was an overall great experience with that many fans.

My 2nd viewing of the first weekend (4th viewing overall) brought one random thing, aside from the gasps and laughs and clapping from Friday. I saw it on Sunday, with a crowd that I feel was mostly non-Browncoats. But when the Operative walks into the Companion House and Mal looks up, amid COMPLETE silence, I hear one man in a far corner of the theater say "UH OH!" My friend and I broke down into giggles right there.

"Bwaa...it's kind of a warrior...strikes fear into the hearts of..."

I can't stand crowded theaters, so I went to a showing I figured would be sparsely attended... which it was. No specific comments overhead from this small grouping that I can relate, but I'd say River's "I swallowed a bug" line definitely got the biggest laughs.
