Good Plan

But, if you have HBO invite friends to your home and have a viewing Shindig. If you don't have HBO invite yourself to a friends house so you can view it at their house, and bring Chinese take outs. What are friends for?

Friends don't let friends miss a chance to see SERENITY.

We too have done the impossible and that makes us mighty also.

The only probelm with the marathon is that its at 4am- 2pm EST. The issue is that a lot of people probably wont see it. Wich is unfortunate for us. :( ... I am planning on watching it before I am forced to go to class

Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

Which EST is that? I just checked with scifi.com again and it says 8a-6p eastern standard time

My Bad. I guess when I checked the schedule I either clicked the wrong time zone or something. Or the site was wrong. Either way, disregard my post earlier

Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable
betrayal!

Done and done! All of my friends, family, loved ones know and I'll keep on spreading the signal. Drop it into casual conversations? Check. Mention it to any officers of the law I might come in contact with? Check. Yell it out the window when I'm stuck in traffic? Check. I've covered all my bases, but I'm not through yet.

When I get the chance I'll find out the web site for Cinemax's dates. No reason we can't use that too. If someone gets to it first, please post it.

We are shiny beyond!
Be well!

Serenity in HBO is a great way to introduce new folks to the 'Verse. Viewing parties are wonderful ideas, and contacting people you know to give them the heads up is another good guerilla marketing strategy.

To add some more ammo to our arsenal, I've created a couple of web banners for spreading the word. These are offered for anyone to use if they like.

We really do want to make the most of Serenity on HBO. It's great for bringing in new fans... but also remember that high ratings will go a long way to demonstrating to Universal that the 'Verse has a healthy, growing audience eager for MORE!

OK, I am a real-life viewer who never knew Firefly existed. I watched the movie on HBO a few days ago

The day before yesterday, I found out totally by accident that it was based on a TV series that I had never heard of. How did I find out? Well, I went to amazon.com and they have an offer to download a free TV show to promote their Unbox feature. One of the choices is the series Firefly and I recognized the people in the picture as being from the movie.

I downloaded the episode "Serenity" and in all honestly I liked it much better than the movie. The film was OK I guess, but it sometimes seemed like they were throwing too much new information at me... I had no idea who these "reavers" were or why the crew knew River and the doctor. It all made much more sense after I watched the show and realized that we were already supposed to know all that from the show.

So, now I am officially hooked. I downloaded two more episodes and am planning to watch them when I get a chance. It's a shame that I never even heard of this series when it was on. I probably would have liked it and watched it if it had been promoted AT ALL.

This is exactly what we're hoping that showing the film would do. It is all Browncoats dream that your experience happens over and over and that new people are brought into the fold every day. You'll have to trust Joss on the movie's cohesiveness. He had a lot of people to cater to, and I think he balanced the fact that some people were not familiar with the story and would need some catchup, and that some people had ravaged all of the series and needed a fix (namely, Browncoats). Somebody will be along to officially welcome you here, but I would like to unofficially do it. You know, on the sly.

I just whached It in HDTV. Prety cool, can see a lot more then on the normal verson. I got comcasts substatute for T-vo, so of corse I recorded it. I herd from somebody who may or may not know what there talking about that there going to make more firfly on HBO. I think that would be cool it is deffently HPO worthy, not like some of the other crap you see on TV. But where I herd it from was so unreliable I can't say for sure, Althouw If thay show it on HBO you can buy all the new sesons at BORDERS or something. Kinda funny if they make anothetr seson of firefly, the complet seres box will be a dud.

But FireFly is just too good to not make more of, the only problom is no one herd of it untill sernaty but people are staring to wake up.
