I saw Serenity first, but it had me at hello... or rather "may experience some slight turbulence and then explode"
And "you shoot me if they take me.....well don't shoot me first!"
What about you?

Well, for me, it was the series first and, like a lot of other people, it was the kick into the engine.
Had loved Angel and Buffy, so I knew that Joss always messes around with the cliches but I just thought that was genius.
From then on, I was hooked.

From the Train Job when Mal tells that obnoxious Alliance-loving dude that he wanted him to say that to his face so she could get behind him. And then, there's Zoe bashing that guy with her gun. Loved it from that moment on.

I'm with you! Missed the series run... but saw the beginning of this movie at work and new it was something I wanted to watch! It was that line and the "did you say Explode? I don't wanna explode!" that got me!

"Mal. Bad. In the Latin."
Saw "The Train Job" when it first premiered, and that line practically haunted me (in a good way) until I got a hold of the DVDs four years later. It made me wonder why you would give a name to the hero when it means "bad". Now I know.

The movie will always be sub-par with me. And not just because of Wash, things seemed out of place and didn't click like the series.
Crow in the engine yes, plus the whole scene with Zoe and Mal at the detention center.
"Whatever happens remember, I love you."
"Sir?"
"Because your my wife."
"Right, sir...... honey."
Done with perfect dead pan effect.

I saw the movie first too. Then ordered the DVDs.
The moment for me was when Mal shot Dobson in the pilot. My jaw dropped open and I knew this was something different.

Well, I prefer the series too, but, because I came into the fandom late, I will always have a special place in my heart for the movie.
And, judging by some great posts above, the movie did an excellent job of introducing many people to the crew and sparking the fires of obsession for many years to come!!!

I saw the movie first as well but didn't really think too much of it until I started watching Firefly a few months later. It was the entire opening sequence of the Pilot that sucked me in.
