Er, that is, unless it's illegal, unsafe, or counterproductive, like stalking the Universal executives.

Great to hear! I will be adding to this as well. Once I know a bit more of what is going on I will spread the word on my end.
I have been converting people left and right to Firefly/Serenity and will let people know (not hard, heh).
I highly recomend sending snail male since its is much harder to ignore than an e-mail ( they have to physically deal with it ).
Anyway, I am sure you guys have it under control so I will keep an eye out for any further details and try to pass on what I can.

that says:Quote:
Actually there is a campaign to contact Universal on September 30th. The idea is that every Browncoat should send an e-mail or a letter (I heard that studios take letters more seriously than e-mails) to them thanking them for making the movie and showing intrest in seeing another. I plan to e-mail them and send a letter.

Is this serious? I know Sept 30 is the day Serenity came out so it seams appropriate.
If we are doing a writing campaign should we not spread the word a bit more?
I am more than willing to write a letter. Just wondering what the details are etc...
Anyone know anything else about this?
Maybe we should be hitting the TV network also.. if we're gonna do this thing, it's just one more addy while we've got the printers and envelopes out.
.. and while we should AVOID all writing the same thing (So it doesn't look like a "Send them this letter" campaign), maybe some example letters would help so it's CLEAR exactly what we want...
They need to be SHORT and get the point across in the FIRST LINE of the letter (Cause that's all that'll probably get read).
The second line should probably be something saying we're WORKING adults, with a disposable income (We have a little extra money to buy stuff we see on TV commercials).. and level of education couldn't hurt if you wanted to throw that in there some where...
We need to get this all on ONE thread so we're coordinated.

You are right bad2verse. Lets get on the same page. If we get some "exsample letters" out there so everyone can follow the same format with their own words in it, the message will be must more effective. Like bad2verse said, the first thing any busy person wants to read is the point. Let them know right away what it is that you are looking for. Second line...etc an exsample letter will be helpful for a lot of people, which will get us more people to support this effort. Post the address on your wall so you don't forget about it, having more then one email/mail won't hurt either. Sending late letters will get the point across if you add that into your letter as well. I am in Japan, deployed. My letter won't get their in time but they will get the point and that is what we are looking for. I agree once again bad2verse ( I feel as if I am sucking up to you, but I'm not) lets try to hit the TV networks as well. Because their was so many "new browncoats" after the movie was created (a lot of people didn't know it was a TV show), how can we advertise this a little more?

This sounds like a wonderful idea and I can't wait to start working on a letter.
I also like the point that we should discuss exactly what is to go in these letters. They wouldn't have to be samples, necessarily, especially if we want to avoid the risk of them looking like copies. Perhaps we could make a list of main points/concepts, whatever they might be, that need to be common to all letters?
I don't know, just throwing out ideas.
And, a question... we want the letters to arrive on the 30th, correct? If so, how do we know when to actually send them? Is there a way to compute how long it will take a piece of mail to be delivered from Point A to Point B?
