Hey everyone,
For a final project for my editing class I'm making a trailer for Serenity, and like most trailers you need praise quotes in it. I'm not looking for "2 thumbs up" and such and I also do not wanna use the ones from the original trailer.
So I'm reaching out to the Browncoats to give me some ideas for quotes. Now remember this is a trailer that will be seen by non-fans as well as people like us so the quotes must appeal to all audiences!
Thanks ahead for all input, and if you wanna create a name for the quote that's cool, if not i can use your name to go along with it!!
Thanks Guys
Chuck

Ni Hao , pops !
Best quote site by far is Rotten Tomatoes...You'll find some of the best reviews and most insightful quotes there , plus something no other site has...The 'TOMATOMETER' !
Here's a direct link to Serenity reviews there :
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/serenity
There are NINE PAGES of review quotes available at the site...
By the way , folk find Serenity 82 % 'Fresh' , and we all know that the 'rotten' folk and their steenking reviews
really don't count at all...
Enjoy !
And please let us know how this project turns out...Our advance thanks for bringing this brand of religiosity to them as need it told !

" It's a science fiction film for fans of science fiction. "
Yeah , that's a great quote , Dave , but it's sort of niche-y and genre-limited...It's like " preaching to the choir ".
Serenity transcends genre , and unifies various fan-favorite tropes...
We're tryin' to reach the fuzzie-wuzzies...Those folk who don't know Serenity from Shinola !

My brother used to refer to it as the best movie you've never seen.

I thought we we're trying to reach everybody. Seriously though I can't count the number of people that I've had to drag to Firefly kicking and screaming because they'd given up on TV/movies doing science fiction right. I was in that category myself actually until I got the DVDs.
