I am guessing that many browncoats have visited the site. But it is still impressive.

It is number one is popularity, meaning what movie is being visited on Box Office Mojo the most.

It is also number one all time in how the registered Box Office Mojo visitors rank movies.

It is also number one in popularity for the last 7 days, for the week and for the month.

Did anyone read the review associated with the site?? It was so crap, I am wondering if the reviewer actually watched the movie...

Don't let it put you down. He's just a crotchy old critic that's peeved that he can't create anything funny or impressive in print. So he takes it out on our cinematic crack. And besides, everything he know's is stupid.

I read the review Starlet. To love Firefly is to have seen it. This guy obviously hasn't seen it.

HOWEVER... (playing devil's advocate)...

That gorram'd heretical piece of bottomsludge only reviews movies. Can't love Serenity the way we do till you've seen the Firefly eps. That's just the butt-ugly truth.

Get the signal out. Lend out them frakkin DVDs and convert convert convert. It sells itself.

No such thing as gravity. The "Earth-that-was" just sucks.

I disagree. I know a few people who really liked Serenity who have never seen the series.

The idea that you would have to see the series in order to love the film would be a bad thing. Sure, it'd be great for the film to boost DVD sales and vice versa, but the movie must stand on its own. IMO, I think it does so quite well.

Sure, people who have seen the series will get more out of the film, but that shouldn't mean that the film must rely on the DVDs, and in no way should the series be a prerequisite for seeing the film.

It is obvious that the reviewer mentioned above has not seen the series; but that really shouldn't be taken into consideration for his review of the film. Not everyone is going to like a film.

I think too many people here read reviews through obsessed-fan-colored glasses.
