I was thinking maybe to help bring more recruits we could direct some requests at Fox for a re-release of Firefly on DVD

Maybe a 'Special Editon' with more features or just a box set with Firefly and Serenity together?

Couldn't do a combined set because Serenity was released by Universal. There's a good chance that we could get a special edition of Serenity though, as there are extra special features that weren't in the US release. I'll be sure to buy it again, and pass on my original to someone else so they can experience it.

How 'bout a rerelease in theaters? Didn't Spiderman do really well as a rerelease? I would bet my left arm that Serenity would gross just as much if not more than the original release. Ok, maybe your left arm.

What about the Browncoats trying to arrange charity screenings of Serenity on June 23, 2006 (Joss's Birthday) One Browncoat is trying to arrange a screening of Serenity at a 3000 seat theater in Albany, NY for June 23, 2006.

It would be great if Universal arranged a re-release and maybe they will someday. And maybe if Browncoats line up enough theaters...Universal might get the idea that it would be worthwhile.

But Browncoats can do it. All you need is a theater and enough Browncoats to convince the theater that it is worth the cost of getting the film.



Cleveland Browncoats just co-sponsored a screening of Serenity on Feb. 24.

I never got to see Serenity on the big screen. I would love to see it rereleased to theaters. Even a rerelease of the BDM with more actors commentary would be amazing. I also would love a rerelease of the Firefly box set. Any new firefly/serenity would be AMAZING!!!!!!!!

As mentioned above, don't wait for this to happen. Make it happen in your area.

Once I finished my server repairs, the Can't Stop The Serenity website wil be back up and you can look into the idea.

That's the first time I heard about this and I live in the area. Can you elaborate more on this Albany thing, please?

Also, Albany is a bad area to try to fill 3,000 seats as I don't think there are many Browncoats around here. It would only work unless Browncoats were brought in from other areas in masses.

But if this is the case I would definitely like more info as I would love to attend and bring everyone I know with me.

Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.
