Maybe you can rent some beagles instead.

Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.
Or a few Badgers, instead.

I'm there for ya. We already reserved the space at the Renaissance and I bookmarked all the decor I want to buy to make it extra special gorgeous. It wouldn't be hard to change hands if need be, though, so if someone's salivating to do it, I wouldn't get in the way.
I'm not so sure about renting any cattle, though. I think the polar bear may have caused irreparable psychological harm.
Like I said, we need your expertise and experience to make this good.
We (hopefully I won't be getting smacked down for speaking for my fellow browncoats on the OB and at FFF.net) want a fabulous fan event like we already know you can do, so we will just be your loyal minions. And ita with her beautiful security crew would just be another big bonus.
And I second the beagle wish.
Some of us are already planning on running two fan tables at Comic Con for Serenity. Anyone planning on the trek down to San Diego?
My Buffistas-speak has fallen arrears. "Polar bear" has something to with Lost, usually...
There was a stuffed polar bear at the Destination:LA party.
Okay, but it's gonna freak me out to ask Tim to sign one of these.
Hee hee!
(that's all I got)
Thanks, P-C. I see "L.A." and I skim. That's how I missed it.
Anyone planning on the trek down to San Diego?
Dunno yet.
I know what the concepts are, what the movie is about, how it looks, and it's no more interesting to me than say, Ring Two. Which is to say, I think it'll be entertaining for what it is, but my life could go by without seeing it, and I may catch it on TNT some rainy Sunday afternoon in between folding laundry and dusting. I don't see this as much of a diss, really.
I completely respect your opinion but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't intriged that a fan of the series has little to no interest in the movie continuation. Have you really written off seeing it in theaters completely? How about if the Buffistas took up a paypal collection to pay for your ticket plus refreshments? Or, what if Tim Minear himself offered to take you as his date to the premiere?
Tim's later work on Wonderfalls mitigated—or perhaps co-opted—a lot of my sadness and rage over Firefly's cancellation. I grew to love Firefly as the show went on, but Wonderfalls had me from the opening teaser, just like Buffy did. If Firefly getting picked up would have meant that I never got to see "Lovesick Ass" or "Cocktail Bunny," then I'd have chosen for things to fall out as they did.
