You know the type that would not touch a movie called "Serenity" with a 10-foot pole. Show
them this.



Maybe they will think again about watching Serenity. Also you can give a Vin Diesel
fan this as a present and it counts as a purchase of Serenity.

Lucky, I used copy and paste. I thought his name was Van.

:D
Actually, the three die-hard Vin fans that I know leapt head-over-heals into Serenity.
But then, they were all women who just like Vin for his biceps.
(Can you blame them?)

Vin Diesel is a self confessed D&D geek. I saw him rambling about his character in a game on Conan O'Brien. I doubt there are many fans of his that wouldn't already be interested in Serenity. But for those few, Good catch!

Wait... there are Vin Diesel fans?

It's insulting for Serenity to be packaged with that crap.

I do not think Mal would mind if it gets the job done. And the job is reaching the billions of people who never even heard of Serenity or were turned off for some reason.

Zoe would back the Captain.

I think Jayne would not mind either because he would see a percentage in it. I bet they would become good friends until Jayne stabbed Vin/Riddick in the back.

Wash, Simon, Book and Inara would probably agree with you.

Kaylee would try to make friends as usual. Not sure how Vin/Riddick would react back.

Now River...

True, but what does that have to do with the 10 people who actually liked Chronicles of Riddick? Probably would end up turning more people away by just associating Serenity with something of that quality.

I haven't seen CoR, but hell, it has to be better than The freakin' Hulk.

Chronicles of Riddick was a fun movie, the theatrical release, at least. I don't like the director's cut. I like Pitch Black a whole lot better, Riddick was a better character in Pitch Black.

I found Riddick to be extremely underrated. It was a decently fleshed out scifi flick that didn't overdo the action.
