What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Oh!Oh! I saw one during X-Play on G4.

What? Shit. WHY HAVE I NOT SEEN ONE YET?!?!

Your tag here.

There was a Serenity ad at the end of Survivor tonight!

I keep wondering what the average movie-goer thinks of the trailer. I can't divorce myself from the investment I have in the show. The trailer is certainly different.

Sometimes evil drives a minivan.

One of my co-workers who hasn't seen Firefly but has heard me talk about it saw one of the ads (the one with "And they're the good guys") and thought the movie looked funny. She's going to go see it and said that funny is what Star Wars has been missing, so this should get some people to see it.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Serenity promo on CBS, following credits for CSI.

I heard one person describe it as "incomprehensible."

How sad. Although, I must admit that the trailers I've seen online are not as comprehensible to me as I would like, and I'm head over heels in love with the series. However, I had chalked that up to small screens and crappy connections. The ad on tv looked wonderful to me. Seriously, I fell for Malcolm Reynolds all over again in about two seconds.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Me, too, libkitty! I fell for him again at "I'm not armed." "Good." Bang!

I'm afraid that I'm going to go home, pop in a videotape from Angel Season 1, and see a Serenity ad on it...

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I do think it's a little bit busy. There's so much going on and the letterboxing doesn't help. But it's not bad, not at all.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I'm wondering how the mainstream critics will treat Serenity.
