Serenity works for me, but nothing's showing up yet for the 23rd.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

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.

So....it's in Cincinnati. Do I get tickets? Cause, see, the showing is on my birthday as well, and I don't know if that's how I want to celebrate my birthday. Hmmm.

Go for it. At least seeing the movie is much better than what I'm doing right now on my birthday. (Of course, that would be periodically checking to see if tickets are available yet.)

Well, I'm one of the folk who is kind of iffy on Firefly in general. But I feel like I should see it. And people who have already seen the preview assure me that the things I have the biggest issue with (the unexplained Chinese epithets, the Western-ish slang) are toned way down in the movie, compared to the series. So....I dunno.

Yeah, those elements are toned down. The manner of speech is the same, and we see hints of the Chinese influence, but they don't appear to the same degree they do in the TV series.

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.
Ugh. movietickets.com must be getting slammed. It's taking forever to load.

Actually, Steph, since you're not crazy about Firefly, I'd say you should probably put off seeing it until it's in its finished form.

I've heard the Hartford link is now active.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Providence has tickets available now.

Strange, but good. MovieTickets.com seems to be loading at a faster rate for me at the moment. Now if Philly would just put tickets up for sale...
