Was it PBP 2002 that either Velvet Chain or Four Star Mary staged an amp-blowing protest in response to being asked to mellow it out? I forget which, or perhaps never knew on account of my eyes being vibrated in their sockets like lottery balls by the drumbeat.
I'm a big girl. Just tell me.

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.

I may have to seize the cat.
It was Four Star Mary.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I don't want to be spoiled for the movie at all...
Bah. I totally want big, fat, juicy, Buffista-written spoilage. Somebody better be willing to say something in the hardcore spoiler thread after tonight, or I shall petulantly stomp my foot and look menacing. I will. I really will. Don't think I won't.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I don't know about tonight, but I'm certainly going to venture into the currently uncharted territory of the spoiler thread after I regain consciousness tomorrow.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
By hardcore spoiler thread, JZ no doubt means reequeen "Firefly Spoilers" Dec 15, 2004 7:49:58 pm PST and not Perkins "Spoilers 3: First Mutant Enemy, Now the World" Apr 23, 2005 9:53:00 am PDT

Oh, I forgot it was today. Can't wait to hear about reactions and how the audiences were and all that. So fun.

There is not enough wrod in the 'verse to cover my support of this statement.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I give it a thumbs up. I would also recommend this movie to others. I will buy the DVD, should they decide to release one.

I just posted a big long plot summary in the Firefly Spoilers thread to which ita linked above. It starts here:

Caveat lector! Every major plot point I could remember is posted, so don't read it if you want no spoilers or if you want only spoiler-lite.

Oh, and two people showed up with signs asking for tickets. Like at a Dead show. How silly was that?
Joss did a nice and funny intro to the preview. The gist: "You fans are great; please help promote the flick." He also said that if you don't like the movie, it is then a time for quiet contemplation, not a time for telling others about it.
I also have a Serenity keychain.
There were about a dozen or so people in Chinese-style dress.
I got there an hour before the start, and there was already a huge line. They checked everyone for cameras and not-turned-off cellphones, and I had to show my ticket stub three times (after already having shown it to the tear-the-ticket-in-half guy.)
I talked to a woman from some Joss spoiler site who said there's gonna be three more previews. Don't know exactly what that means. Maybe tomorrow I'll remember the URL.
