Oh, we had a Companion too. Gorgeous shiny patterned wrap-thing on. This was right after my best friend wished aloud someone had come as Inara.
Zoe: Uh huh. River, honey? He's putting the hair away now. River: It'll still be there... waiting.

I may have to seize the cat.
I think I'd go River, because her clothes are so easy (pink peasant skirt and red sweater? I can totally do that) and because she seems like one people aren't dressing up as all the time. I don't have the build for it at all, but my coloration is half-right.
Summer Glau is a cutie, and I'm short, and some people equate short with cute, so there you are. We're just alike.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
I don't mean this in a taunty way, but just to report in, I will say that the movie is fan-fecking-tastic. Really. It's hard to be impartial, since I have seen the show and grown to love it, but I can say that I haven't been so engrossed in a movie since, well, I don't know how long. It's everything you'd want a movie to be. I can't wait to see it finished and to bring all my friends. I think I earned a toaster, too, because the friend I brought remarked "I think this will be good for dvd sales. I know I want to see the show now."
So, to echo everyone else, the news is good.

Loving the thumbs-upses. Four months. I can deal.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I have a Serenity keychain!
There were keychains? How did I miss this?

The (very cool) usher had them on the way out. Same guy I think I saw wandering the theater with night-vision goggles during the movie.

If I only had a brain...
Yup, we had night-vision goggle people on both sides. Checking for videocameras, I assume.

Well, I had great seats so I guess I can't complain too much.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
That was my guess. I tried my best to not look shady and keep my hands in view. But that's because I'm a goody-goody.
ETA: Did anyone see who ended up in the reserved seats?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
We got keychains too!
