I made my first post at the Serenitymovie.com boards to tell the LJ girl she was being irrational, Kate.
As if I should talk.
I was really burnt that I only have like, 85 points. You can score points for merchandise by making banners and shit.
What do you get for making a Variety ad?
If I could find a friggin contact at the board, I'd make some demands on behalf of F:IA and get me and the girls some swag. I think we should all have enough points for a Serenity personal airplane by now.
IMO, you should have enough points to have Wash and Xander following you around day and night as your wet, barefoot, tired-foot-rubbing and bookshelf-building devoted slaves.
I'd totally sign that petition.
I'm wondering if I'm strong enough to stop by serenitymovie.com. On the one hand, I am dying to talk about the movie. And crazy people are often amusing, unless they're annoying instead. Hmm. On the other hand, I should probably go to bed... but who am I kidding?

Okay, what's with all this crazy white font in the spoiler thread? Trying to read it is giving me a headache.
Ha! Our nefarious plan has succeeded, then.
Hmmm. I just remembered that back when the movie was first announced,
Ron Glass
and
Alan Tudyk
were the last to be confirmed as returning. I wonder if/how that's connected.
Huh. You might have something there.
Fuckity. How come whenever I decide to get spoiled, it's never for something good?
I'm surprised, a bit, about Wash, because I though Tim and Joss really like Alan, and vice versa. But in a way I'm not surprised...if you are paring characters for a continuing series, those two are the characters to pare. Loads of emotional content in the event of their deaths, and loads of story seeds for how the survivors deal with their deaths. And I'm not sure that Joss and Alan were seeing eye-to-eye on Wash's character anyway.
I'm not surprised that there's a fan campaign to change the story, though. I mean, there's a campaign to change accepted scientific things like evolution. People just aren't very good at accepting things that make them uncomfortable or unhappy anymore.
Still jealous of all you screening-attendees.
In one way, I'm
sadder about Book's death than I am about Wash's, because it means we will never learn his back story. I know there was almost no chance we would have any way,
but this makes it definite.
