The event came and it went. Repeat viewings are good, and the dvd will be shiny, but it happened.
I feel like I did the month after Jedi came out (but worse, 'cause Serenity was better).
I guess this is the closest thing I'll ever feel to post-partum depression.
Anybody else feel a little down?

We hang on to each other and the lovely DVDs cus they lessen the withdrawal.. but.. there is still withdrawal...out here in the black.

Yep, me too. It was inevitable because of literally YEARS of buildup. I think (dare I?) Joss would tell us that the last two years of fighting and scratching were just as important as the movie itself. Be proud - be very proud.
Where to now? The future's in doubt, vast numbers of people never got to see our jewel (not to mention Our Jewel), and it's a little like the Battle of Serenity all over again. The movie punished us with disturbing losses, an agonizing hint of The Sequel That Could Be, and a glimpse of what Hollywood could be when a working brain gets introduced into the moviemaking process.
I'm still proud of the fact that we kicked "Into the Blue"'s big star, flashy, formula-heavy, bikini-clad butt!

yeah, it feels like it is 'over'...
but I'm guessing it is far from over.
Pretty soon (2 months is soon, right?)
we'll have the shiny 'Serenity' DVD
hopefully full of 'extras' goodness
(I'm sure there will be a Joss commentary, and I hear they scheduled a cast commentary...)
Then I've got my little heart set on more comic books,
because they are really sweet.
in between I hope we'll have posts at Jewel's blog
(anyone have that address? I can't find it since my last computer over-haul)
and more posts from Joss, Nathan & Adam...
There is always something new coming to us...
we just gotta have faith...or belief...whatever

I translated this famous speech to chinese and back again. Can you guess what it is?
We minority, we are happy minority, we unify brothers; For his that shed his blood and I today am my brothers; Is his ne' er very vile, this day will pat his situation; And the gentlemen now the bed will think accurs' in England; d they are not here, and causes their manhoods cheaply to wear down any says that fight with us in 圣徒 Crispin' s day
--Ballad

'we few, we happy few,

(of course I don't remember the whole speach...

Ooooh, I knew this thread -present was from you before I opened it! You used the Bene Jesserit voice!
More discussion on more topics is what I need at this point. The cozy little room is feeling a bit weighted with the disappointment right now, and that's getting to me a leettle beet.
I'm keeping the disappointment at bay with repeated viewings with new people who immediately get the starry eyed look, while I'm rummaging around for new things to notice in the movie. That helps. Also designing t-shirts and things with FF & S paintings on them. That is keeping me very cheery.
Now it's a forever thing, like that child you just birthed. You'll be able to watch it again and again in slo-mo and come here with the looney toons to discuss the minutiae, of the silly things it said, and the way it burbed up the peaches, and soon Joss will unveil some magnificent new project.
But yes, there is definitely the post to the partum, and it's kindly blue.
And Ballad! With the random posting of one of five great inspirational speeches still smoking from the use of the double mirror translation effect. Could there be a thread?
And we must also have the 10 favorite movies by catagory!
