Just thought I'd stop by and mention what a great service ita is providing for fandom... [link] (Check out the link at the top.)

If we're really lucky, they'll do it in that order...

The cover is from the International poster for the movie. Whilst I don't especially like it, I do think that it's better than the US cover (llamas!). Which isn't saying much.

If it helps, River is embossed on the tin.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

An image of the poster is actually below the image of the tin, so you can see where the tin picture originates.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I was just looking at Amazon and got a surprise when I noticed Firefly is still #19 in the Top Sellers list. Serenity is sitting at #25.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

In comparison with the USian poster, the International poster practically screams, "Watch me!" Just in comparison, but it begins to make more sense that Serenity did so much better, relatively, overseas.

That said, I don't really like either poster all that much. I like the Serenity logo much better.

Wait, wrong show....

Not necessarily. I say the cast should take a page from Farscape's book and audition for roles on BSG... renewal by infiltration.

Art Crawl!!!

Sure, or like Buffy alum Eric Balfour and Angel alum JAR -- they could be on Conviction.

Why isn't there a Firefly alum on there already?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

TWoP has done a recap of Serenity! I just started reading it, but I'm already in love with this nailing of Mal:

He loves his ship more than anything, but like with anything else he loves, he has no idea what's going on inside her.

Ah, I was just coming here to pimp for Jacob. He's the Nice One. Also, the Verbose One.

I would be very entertained to see Adam Baldwin standing next to Jamie Bamber. And by "standing next to" I mean "looming over."

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Oooh, looking forward to that recap. I haven't read Firefly recaps, but Jacob's recaps of the Apprentice, especially the late season episodes and especially the last five minutes of the last episode, were masterpieces.
