I am SO happy that someone finally got the transcript of this up! I got all teary eyed at the theater, and being able to read it again was awesome. Thanks for posting it!

Great job!



Both are acceptable.

From Dictionary.com:

Quote:

Usage Note: Snuck is an Americanism first introduced in the 19th century as a nonstandard regional variant of sneaked. Widespread use of snuck has become more common with every generation. It is now used by educated speakers in all regions. Formal written English is more conservative than other varieties, of course, and here snuck still meets with much resistance. Many writers and editors have a lingering unease about the form, particularly if they recall its nonstandard origins. And 67 percent of the Usage Panel disapproved of snuck in our 1988 survey. Nevertheless, an examination of recent sources shows that snuck is sneaking up on sneaked. Snuck was almost 20 percent more common in newspaper articles published in 1995 than it was in 1985. Snuck also appears in the work of many respected columnists and authors: “He ran up huge hotel bills and then snuck out without paying” (George Stade). “He had snuck away from camp with a cabinmate” (Anne Tyler). “I ducked down behind the paperbacks and snuck out” (Garrison Keillor).

Hi. I had the pleasure of attending the screening last night (it was my birthday present from my pal Mike Clark). It was indeed awesome.
I'm part of a group that's trying to save another excellent show: Disney is going to cancel their series, Kim Possible, after just 65 episodes, despite it being one of their highest rated shows. I was just wondering if I might be able to share Joss' message with them? I think it ties in so well with what we're trying to accomplish. Thanks.

The part that amused me most, we had Nathan Fillion at the 6/23 screening in Phoenix. And at the point where Joss said "This movie doesn't have stars..." Nathan screamed, "WHAT!?!" and everyone laughed. Maybe you had to be there. But it was hilarious.

Thank you for that, Oxy. That was a truly special moment. I was hoping to find this, and here it is.

Nice Fillion story, Retro.

No one's posted here in a while, but I just stumbled onto this topic.
Awesome speech. *applauds Joss* I don't usually read interviews or speeches or the like from behind the movie screen, so just wanna post my opinion on the words of our favorite Browncoat :-)
