Jon, I was trying to be kind.
At least it looks like her...
Dawn: I feel safe with you. Spike: Take that back!
'First Date'
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.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
I didn't know there were Buffy comics! Are they any good?

I may have to seize the cat.
beathen, I've found it really varies depending on the writer. I generally trust Chris Golden and any of the show's writers, but I am a bit suspicious of others.

I have really enjoyed the Tales of the Slayer and Tales of the Vampires collections, not least because they include contributions from BtVS writers like Jane E and Joss. Fray, of course, is essential.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Question for those who went to the previous screening -- especially if there are any lurkers who went to the San Francisco one -- how early did you show up? How early is sensible, rather than either so early that you've perished of tedium before the movie actually starts, or so late you end up crouched in the furthest corner seat of the front row with your moviegoing partner way at the other end of the room?
I've never been to an advance screening of anything before, ever. I have no idea what is the done thing and I can't bear to be improper.

If I only had a brain...
Wear a hat, gloves, and pearls, and you're always proper.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Also, dope slap instead of bitch slapping.

We arrived at the 10 PM Atlanta screening at 9:25. It was mostly full by then. We got decent seats but not together.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Also, dope slap instead of bitch slapping.
Don't forget the codpiece!

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 arrived at the Chicago screening an hour before the start. I would say that 80% of the folks were already there.
