Woot! September 29 is the official Australian release date for the Firefly movie Serenity. It has been getting a decent amount of plugging on tv, more than I thought it would as the tv show was not heavily supported in Australia, so hopefully it'll have a substantial run.
Long enough for me to see it, what, 7 or 8 times at least. Just scratch the surface and I'm total 17 year old fanboy underneath...

It opens September 30 in these parts. The show was a dramatic fizzle here as well, especially following the success of Buffy/Angel. I'm feeling a buzz on Firefly, though. There is a palpable racing of the pop-culture pulse of the nation. (I wanted to use 'zeitgeist' there somehow, but it's too soon.)
So, I should try and not post spoilers on the 29th?...
The show wasn't a dramatic fizzle here, but the station running it (in classic fashion for them) didn't understand what they had and buried it late at night where few saw it. They would also yank it and reschedule at the slightest provocation. It's one of those shows that never really got a chance to fully get off the ground, I mean if you look at most of the later Star Trek franchises, or even Buffy, the first season is rarely the best. They hit their stride after a season or two.
Seen it...haha
Its great, will go see it again when it comes out.
There is photos on For Battle of Meg and Harry touching Joss....lucky ducks.
be careful though, there are spoilers in the comment section.
it's so good. can't wait to see it when it opens so we can talk freely!
btw - Joss is touching Meg, not the other way around ;)
W&S, I can't believe that she not only met the Blessed One (praised be His name), but that she also got touched by Him.
OH .... MY ...... BRAD!
I'm going to be in Brisbane for 2 weeks from next Monday (26 Sept). I soooo have to take The Kid and Rabbit to see this movie when up there.
[Closing ears and eyes to spoilers]Lalalalalalalalalalala
[Goddammit, I wanna peek ....Nooooo!]
lalalalalalalalala ...
You know, I was going to link to the ForBattle! post were they got to meet Joss, but then the green mist of jealousy descended and I couldn't see to type...
