Really shiny idea to throw a shindig as a viewing party in a video store. Great way to recruit new folk.

I got my sister to sit down for approx 15 minutes to see it (believe me that saying a lot, my sister is a human dynamo who never stops moving from sun-up to sundown) - unfortunately it was during the Miranda sequence when the crew find out about the Pax.

Anywho, she's interested in seeing the whole thing so I gonna lend her my Collector's Ed. copy so she and her husband can see the whole thing from the beginning.

I did notice it was a bit choppy to watch on commercial TV but I think it will spark some folk to rent the dvd and/or look up Serenity on the net to find out more and, you know the rest - newbies. Unfortunate that it was on so close to football playoffs. But I think we'll get some new folk coming into our 'verse.

Well I'm off to thank Skiffy!

How do they know we were watching? Embedded code that makes us buy fruity oaty bars?? I can not say how much a new series is in order enough and I will prove it.....a new series is in order...Firefly Season 2....the actors are too good to leave in comics.

Nice! They did better than us. Seems a bunch of our "regulars" were out of town for the holidays. So we only had 12.
But we managed to get a few new folks. Gave away some Firefly bracelets from FanDone.com and a Dr. Horrible DVD as prizes. And the food -- good lord the food!
Any way to check the ratings? I'm curious what kind of audience it garnered.

Hey, you had a decent turnout, though, so thats Shiny. The Bloomington Shindig was a success to me because we had 3 people who had never seen the sereniverse at All! Neither the series or the film! All three loved the BDM, so I'm suspecting that we're more critical of the editing than most folks would be lol.
