Just checked the details - our fine city (Portland, OR) has fourteen copies in the library system, and there are fifty-nine holds on them! Fans in the making!

Shiny!

I would like to say, yes it has effected my speech. Either on purpose to get away with cursing or by accident.
Just like Buffy, Angel, and Southpark.

*laughs* I actually attempted to curse a guy who was driving weirdly in front of me and instead sputtered in Mandrian. I have no idea what phrase flew out either.

Don't know if this is any help, but:
go to Kiara's post in this thread. Click on her name. Her profile should come up. On the left hand side of the screen is a message box. This is set up to automatically direct messages to Kiara's e-mail address.

Donating $ for the troops over in the MidEast to be able to watch Firefly - Yes

Donating $ for pampered, over indulgent movie critics who get PAID very well to watch such things, as well as who knows what in attempts to curry a favorable review? - Not a gorram chance in hell.

I like the pro active attitude - a lot. But I think we tend to over think things when trying to get the word out. Perhaps those who have the DVD can burn a copy and send it to critics, or d.j.'s..... that's cool. I'm up for more ideas, just not forking over $$ to BUY them freebies.

Hopefully this will make sense

It seems to me that a fan of Firefly reviewing a Firefly movie would be viewed as a biased critic by people who have never seen the show and are reading the review pondering whether or not to see the movie. I want critics that praise the movie because it's a good movie that stands on it's own, and I want people to read the reviews of THOSE critics and see the movie because they trust that the critic went in unbiasedly and left loving it.

We need to trust that the movie will be GOOD, which it will be, because Joss Whedon is a GOOD writer. We don't need to do all this underhanded stuff in the hopes of tainting reviews to make them positive, when, if the movie was any good anyway, that would not be necessary.

So was it senseless rambling, or what?
