Everyone that watches Serenity will see how awesome it is. In the extras I hope Joss throws in ample refs to the Firefly. People will go out and buy the series DVD. Watch it; love it. And demand Fox or whoever put the show back on the air! I hope I hope!

O Serenity, O Serenity! Where art thou Firefly?
Deny thy networks and refuse thy box-office totals;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be a Capulet....

Quote:The studios are always very secretive about the money they get from DVDs, so nobody knows for sure. A figure that was tossed around a lot before the movie came out was 500,000. It has no doubt increased since, but probably not by as much as we would like to think. So, the browncoats are growing but we aren't legion. And thus, we need to do everything we can to help the movie on DVD. I've got a thread with some suggestions on what you can do to help DVD sales: http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=14173
Do we have any idea how many copies of Firefly have been sold? I would imagine that number could give us a very rough idea of how many people will buy Serenity. Anyone know?
But buying multiple copies will clearly be helpful, if you're willing and able to do it. If not, no problem. But I sure hope a fair amount of browncoats do it, or we could be in real trouble. Donate them to your local libraries if nothing else.

I recaculated the figure to 3 million. I think that that is a good estimate.

Right now Serenity is number 16 on Top Sellers on Amazon.com - and it hasn't even been released yet. (Firefly is #8) Also, a reminder, Universal doesn't get any money from Firefly. So, as much as I love the show - I'd sure like to see Serenity and Firefly switch places on the list (or better yet, Serenity #1 and Firefly #2)
