Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
Has anyone seen regular tv ads for Serenity yet? It is still coming out in wide release by the end of this month, right? I'm just a little alarmed we haven't seen anything to reel in the regular folk.

I've seen trailers at the last 3 movies I attended.

I've seen the trailer only before Star Wars, not with the other two this summer. I usually only get interested in a movie by ads I see on tv, so I'm surprised that I haven't seen one on the small screen. I rarely go to the movies; does that happen a lot? (The having only movie trailers and not television ads thing.)

d, I've been wondering the same thing. Though, I'm really only watching Sci-fi Friday this time of year, so I wouldn't know if there were Serenity ads elsewhere. Still. I was hoping to see a post or two in here saying that that someone had seen a trailer during X Show, yay.

I may have to seize the cat.
I too was concerned about the lack of TV ads and then realized I don't watch any TV.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I just went to see The Constant Gardener (excellent, but depressing as hell) and was concerned about the lack of Serenity posters.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
See, this is the thing. "The Constant Gardener" audience and the "Serenity" audience do not fit into marketeer's image of the "same folks."
We could lend them a different image ... but it would upset their projections.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I was more concerned by the lack of a promo before Brothers Grimm, but they didn't seem to have a good feel for who was going to that movie.
Not that a whole lot of people did.
