Apparently Sean Majer and Morena Baccarin showed up at the Boston preview. Theodosia better have stories!

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.

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.
My vote is "yay" but with some reservations. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it and will certainly see it again in September, but there were a few things that bugged.
The intro from Joss was very cool and funny, though.
I am disappointed I lost my survey-thingy (I think I set it on the clipboard while I was signing the thank you cards someone made up for Universal and the theatre and it got lost somewhere in the pass around) and wasn't able to turn it in. I also lost the Serenity flyer thingy that they handed out with the surveys.

Austin had Nathan Fillion and Ron Glass from what I've heard.

And we got nobody. What's all these cities getting two cast members? Stupid BDH-hoggers.

Adrian Pasdar: bringing hot (and ambiguously gay) to a new level since Top Gun.
Atlanta was cast-memberless, too. Unfair. Although, we did get two nice Universal lackeys.
Yay. And HoYay. Um. Then I start overanalyzing and should really tell my brain to shut up.

Sometimes evil drives a minivan.
I grabbed a couple extra posters/flyers if you want one Kalshane.

Some of us didn't even get a preview screening.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Was it a finished version of the film, or where there obvious bits missing (special effects or sound effects)? Did the soundtrack seem complete?
I don't think those count as spoilers, per se, do they? Anyway, posted it in the spoiler thread as well, but I suspect some of the unspoiled would be interested in how close to finished the film looked.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Further proof that I can keep a seekrit. For a long time.
I didn't know who would be where, though, so no stringing me up and killing me.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
There were no posters available at the Boston showing. (I did get a keychain, though.) Baccarin and Maher stayed on for autographing afterwards, which I thought was nice, but I couldn't stay as I have to work today and the public transportation was shutting down shortly.
The film =looked= pretty finished, including a rather lot of nice editing. The soundtrack seemed unexciting to me -- literally no memorable music that I can remember, so I hope they put the months between now and September to good use.
I would definitely see it again a couple of times at least. Everyone in the theatre seemed pleased.
