Yeah, editing was the right thing to do. I originally thought everyone had seen both the series and the movie who are registered with this site. Hmmmm, maybe not. In any case, I will hold my "type/tongue."

See, the thing you have to take into account with the Big Damn Movie (BDM, get used to that term, you'll see it ALOT ) is that it didn't get much of a theatrical release in the US, to say nothing of internationally. The DVD hasn't even come out in several countries. Long story short, a good chunk of the fanbase hasn't even gotten the briefest taste of the film.

Anyhoo, welcome!

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal, Fox!

I love learning about this "monster" that's building up to hopefully bring in a new movie or better yet, another shot at the TV series...monster being a good thing. Do you think any TV execs are aware of this website of devoted followers (browncoats)? I am amazed that I see over 150 people have read my thread. That's incredible and everyone who has responded has been so welcoming. Thank you all.

I Went to the movies to watch Serenity for the first time late last year in Australia...

My Goodness was THAT one of the best Sci-Fi's of late to be released..

I had no idea about the series Firefly until I spotted them at the local video store just over a month ago. I decided to hire them to see what they where like...

My Goodness aren't THEY one of the best Sci-Fi series of late....

Just 3 weeks ago Serenity was released here in Australia. As soon as I saw it I picked it up to buy.... Then I spotted the Firefly series so I bought that Too...

WOW... that's all I have to say...

Oh and hi to all you other fans! Here's hoping there's a HUGE comeback to this series or movie... it's just been SOOO refreshing to see something that meshes so well together as firefly and serenity does.

EDIT//
Oh and hi NJUTFAN... I just found this site just now and as soon as I read your post I too decided to sign up... Just now so HI!

Magera,

Glad I could help. I was excited when I heard about website, so I had to join right away to get a chance to talk about the series and the BDM (Big Damn Movie) as someone pointed out earlier.

Magera Welcome. Seems I've been saying that a lot. Now, you see, if Fux had actually TRIED to promote this show instead of placing it on death night (Fridays) and played the 2 hour pilot first instead of last and played the shows in proper order and had... grrr never mind, I'll go off in a tangent and I'm here to be cheerful.

I'm the official bartender it seems, so have a pint.
Mudders Milk; All the carbs and protiens of your
mothers best turkey dinner.... plus 15% alchohol.


As you can see, it's a shiny place. Don't forget to check out The Blue Sun Room, outstanding talent there.

If I'm a bitch, then life just got interesting

Almost forgot, look out for Followmal to give you your official Browncoat. She's our requisitions officer. As for munchies, Kaele should be around somewhere, she makes damn fine dumplings.

Well, seeing as it's breakfast time...

Pei Tarn Chook, so grab a bowl and a spoon. The breakfast of sou xi theives. We're glad to have you.

Njutfan and Magera, seeing as how Followmal's a tad busy, I think I can speed up that process and hand over your Independence Issue Browncoat. (When asked, the official story is that I got promoted to supply clerk assistant. Got it?)

I believe she's off somewhere trying to rustle up a few more boxes. We're a bit strapped for supplies and she coulda run into some Alliance trouble, seeing as how these particular coats are not exactly available in stores. Not even on sale or nothin'.

*brushes off the shoulders of the two coats and hands them over*

Wear them proudly.

...and watch that Mudder's milk hangover. No stumbling around the ship. One of you falls and dies, I'm not cleaning it up! Gonna have to speak to the Cap'n about that Misstressahara, can't go having crew drunk all the time.

Wacky fun :)

Welcome njutfan and magera! I love the growing ranks!

Pour yourself some tea or mudders milk (depending on your time zone and disposition) and get cozy. We're nice here.

Well, most of us.

/me smells food. Must mean there's more recruits afoot... ;p

There's just been a veritable calvalcade of new recruits coming through here every day. Still pretty green around here myself, but it's definately more noticeable than when I stowed away out here a little bit ago, so word must be spreading.

So a great big howdy to all the fresh recruits. There's always room on the lines for a few more. Keep the faith, spread the word, and know that we'll all be holding here when Mal returns.

*grabs a plate of Kaele's famous Pei Tarn Chook* (Really just came for the free food...:) I'll be in my bunk... ;p
