I'm glad to hear you got such a good turnout on Saturday night (all things considered). I had planned on bringing the whole troupe on Saturday, but we decided against it with the snow. I am SO glad I went Friday night!
It would be nice to see the flick again on the big screen. I'll be out east every once in a while, at least until my house sells (anyone interested in a rancher in Pottstown?) - so I can plan the next trip around another screening (maybe April-ish?).
Many, many, many thanks for getting this all together. It was indeed worth it.

Welcome to the board, Narpin.

When I told her what it meant she quickly took the pin off and put it in her purse!
That's pretty funny. After she watches Firefly, maybe she'll wear that button with pride. There are definitely worse things in the 'verse than being a Guild member. :)

Long time listener...
Me and my favorite moviegoing partner had heard about the pending snow, and wisely, we opted for Friday night. I must say, it never does get old seeing that beautiful ship on a bigger screen than I can fit in my house. I was also tempted to get out Saturday, but the snow is an archenemy of mine. Bad Times.
As to a future screening, I would go, I would gladly put out the word, and I would gladly demand that my Baltimore crew come stay for the weekend so that we may add to the droves. Name the day, and I'll plan ahead accordingly. And I know about the outside food and drink policy, but I would even make some homemade oaty bars for the outisde of the theatre. Now in chocolate!

hey there folks:
is this thread dead? we shall see...
well the theater owners are very happy... 105 for firday was great and they know it would have been 150 for Sat. if it wasn't for the blizzard.
we will DEFINITELY be booking Serenity again for a midnight show... but i'm not sure when.
the two likely possibilities seem this spring before the colleges get out, so late april or early may...
however, if we don't do that we might *also* do next fall when the colleges get back... which would put it right around september - the one year anniversary of Serenity's release!
i will be sure to post the news here when we have a date, and you guys can always check our website at: www.brynmawrfilm.org
had a great time both nights and all my firefly virgins who came loved it. several didn't make it cuase of the snow, so they'll just have to come out next time.
thanks again guys - i'll keep you posted - but Serenity hasn't stopped flying on our screens yet for sure!
-Ben

I'd love to see it in April/May, and again in the Fall.

I have two good friends who work at BMFI. I heard about the Serenity showing, but was unable to make the trip from Lancaster. I hope that it's shown again before too long. I didn't get a chance to see it on the big screen when it was released and would love to get that chance.

Oooh. That could be huge and fun. I would really plan my life accordingly for an anniversary party that involved a big screen.
Talkin' ain't' doin.'

Just let me know when you decide and I'll get the word out as early as possible on the podcast. And I'll be up there again if at all possible. I'd love to see another showing this spring sometime.
