Sounds to me like a new case of letter writing and begging.
There is no really valid reason for our South African fans not to be able to see Serenity on the big screen!
I don't mean to tease, but she really looked BEAUTIFUL up there!

Just to remind you; Serenity is only a movie. It is not a cure for cancer. It will not improve your sex life. It won't bring your pet goldfish back to life.
It's a great movie. But nonetheless, it is just a movie. Death threats, even when made as an obvious joke, will still alarm your average cinema rep and add to our already troubled reputation. Sure, complain, plead, encourage. But threatening the company that made this film in the first place? Do you think any of the makers want that?

I don't think you realise how things work in SA. Sometimes threatening somebody with bodily harm is the only way to get things done around there.

Every day is a negotiation and sometimes it's with guns, eh?
Remember, you crucify a Universal executive and it'll be us that gets the bad publicity. I think you'll also be made to pay a fine. I think it's about 30 rand for movie executives.

30 Rand already! Sheesh, inflation has really pushed the prices up since I left.
