Browncoats: Redemption ( http://browncoatsmovie.com/) has been released. You can view the trailer on their website (there was an online premiere, but it is already over) and buy DVDs & other Redemption schwag on their website. All the proceeds go to the traditional cast of Browncoat charities:
* Equality Now
* Kids Need to Read
* Al Wooten Jr. Heritage Center
* Dyslexia Foundation
* Marine Corps Law Enforcement Foundation
I was at the premiere at Dragon*Con last weekend and this is a super shiny film. They packed the room to over capacity with more than 1000 attending.

Quote:The FX look nice in the trailer. Is the story worthy of Joss? Has he seen it do you know?

Wow! No pressure THERE!
Browncoats: Redemption is a solid fan film effort.
Figure it had a budget of about 1/40 of the average TV show, actors who were willing to work for free, relied heavily on donations for nearly everything:
for all that and despite a bit of un-eveness;
I'd still rate B:R above most of the SciFi channel movies I've seen.
The B:R folks have every reason to be proud of their efforts.
Their film was finished on a budget and on a schedule, which is a hard thing to do.
B:R is entertaining for Firefly fans certainly, and I'd think even for those not familiar with the series.
I definitely recommend buying a copy to support the charities, to encourage further fan film efforts, and to enjoy.
Mike

It sure looks fine, I just can't make out much of the *sound* of the characters in the trailer.
I'll likely be ordering it soon in any case.

"That ain't exactly hard."
Seriously though, good work and for a good cause.

Gonna order now, on faith alone, simply because I trust my fellow browncoats on this matter. 
( And as further proof of my faith, I'm not even going to catch the trailer. I plan on watching it completely in the dark, with as few preconceptions as possible. )

Incredibly ambitious project - I am deeply impressed. Pulling something off like that is huge! Congratulations to everyone involved. Definitely buying a copy.
