Fan ramblings…
Yes, it’s 17 Slashdot hours old, but in case you haven’t already watched it: The trailer for Joss Whedon’s Serenity is here. (The story about it is here.) Seems fitting, considering I had just recently had a hankering to watch a couple episodes of Firefly. I have to wonder about how the story will do in the medium of the big screen– if critics and a loyal fan base weren’t enough to save the TV series, though DVD sales helped sell it as a movie, will there really be a big enough audience to make this profitable? I want this to be profitable… these characters, this world… we just need to experience more of it and soon.
Also, for the record, I have pre-ordered two tickets to a midnight preview show for Episode III at our local Regal 24 on I-85. Any and all who want to get tickets and hook up for the show are welcome — just let me know and we’ll make some pre-movie plans.
So, which fans are going out to hunt for this in the morning?
Oh and.. then there’s

I got my five tickets for the midnight show at Perimter Point in Da ‘Wood. I’m glad to see that there is another Star Wars dork out there like myself, I even got my girlfriend into it, which is saying a lot considering she had never seen the movies before I met her. Well I’m gettin’ out of here but nice post, seeya

I wasn’t much of a Firefly fan, which is why I had no idea they were making a movie…until this morning when I saw someone had made some LJ icons for it.
It has renewed my interest. I can’t exactly remember why I didn’t care for the series. I guess I’ll try to find them for download…or just buy the DVD set. I’ll definitely try the movie out either way.
Joss is my boy, word up.
